Question for you

[final_problem]

So I'm curious as hell: who all's on scholarship here and what's your full name? Reason I ask is because there's a lot of funny names floating around and the theory is that there's a scholarship for people with funny names. Otherwise, we're talking some kinda huge, creepy coincidence.

I am, zanmi- I received a scholarship as a member of a minority group (Creole!).

John Ronald Reuel Tolkien, but I don't see how that's a funny name. I am on scholarship, though...

Are you talking about merit-based or need-based?

[final_problem]

Either one. Especially if you've got one from a foundation called Anamnesis.

I received a merit scholarship to transfer from Washington. Anamnesis sounds familiar. However, I don't really understand what this is about. I have little complaint with my name- Thomas Stearns Eliot- and it strikes me as comparably normal, if a bit conservative. Nor do most of these names mean much to me.
