0:043 a.m., the last partygoers are
0:07stumbling home in an apartment in
0:10downtown Bourges. The light has just
0:13turned on. Like every Saturday, Gamze
0:19Yuxel is already awake. At 23, she has
0:22returned to her studies after 2 years
0:24of temp work in factories. The irony is
0:29that to fund her first year of law
0:30school, she had to go back to work.
0:33Chocolate cake and caffeine to keep
0:35going. The day is going to be very long
0:38.
0:41Do you ever get used to waking up like
0:43this? No, it's always hard. It wasn't
0:47my choice. I was offered this and I
0:51accepted because it was all there was.
0:56That, a night job in retail
0:58distribution. The price to pay to try
1:03and secure a better future.
1:07Right now, the 3 a.m. wake-up was tough
1:11but I tell myself that later on, I'll
1:15be less tired.
1:17Later on, Gamze wants to become a
1:19notary. So she still has at least 6
1:21more years of study left.
1:24So over there, that's for the trucks.
1:27In the meantime, it's in these
1:29warehouses that she spends every
1:30Saturday and all her vacations. A job
1:33that earns her € 350 a month.
1:36I deal with the drivers, actually.
1:40Right there, the drivers are waiting,
1:42they're waiting for their invoices,
1:43they're waiting to go load. As you can
1:45see there, there's a driver arriving.
1:46It's nice. It's not...I'm not all alone
1:49in an office, things are moving.
1:53There are three students working at
1:55this platform, but we weren't allowed
1:57to film them. Here, Gamze juggles
1:59precarious contracts that are renewed
2:00every month. Her employer prefers not
2:03to show the students who work at night.
2:08From the hum of the refrigerated trucks
2:14to the click of the lecture halls. At
2:17the university, Gamze rarely talks
2:19about her job. Here, she is a student
2:22like any other, even if she's one of
2:24the only ones who doesn't use a laptop.
2:26Too expensive for her. With an absent
2:29father and a mother earning minimum
2:32wage, her income consists of a € 380
2:34monthly grant and her salary. Between
2:37class hours, homework to prepare, and
2:40her job, her weeks are very full.
2:4423 7 30 15 45 63 48 hours per week,
2:55it's exhausting.
2:59No choice,
3:01no choice, but there's no question of
3:03complaining. Gamze knows full well that
3:06her case is not exceptional. In France,
3:08one in four students is forced to work
3:10to finance their studies. Last year,
3:14that was also the case for 20-year-old
3:16Sarah Garrido. A 3 rd-year sociology
3:19student, she worked 20 hours a week as
3:21an assistant in a Parisian suburban
3:24school. She has just learned that her
3:26contract was not renewed. I'm in a bit
3:29of an emergency where I need to find
3:31something right away.
3:34Right now, she spends more time on the
3:36streets of Saint-Denis handing out
3:37resumes than in college classrooms.
3:41Excuse me for bothering you. I wanted
3:44to see the manager of this restaurant
3:47bar only this afternoon.
3:49Only this afternoon.
3:50Yeah.
3:51Okay. And, uh
3:56restaurants, clothing stores, or
3:58supermarkets. For 3 weeks, Sarah has
4:00knocked on every door without success.
4:03In terms of a job, I'm not really picky
4:05. What I need is a job that pays money
4:10so I can feed myself.
4:14The challenge for Sarah is also being
4:16able to keep living across from the
4:18Saint-Denis university campus. Here,
4:21the room costs € 320 a month and she
4:23can no longer afford to pay it. If she
4:26doesn't find work, she'll have to
4:28return to her parents 'place and
4:30commute 4 hours a day to study. In the
4:37meantime, she lives on a budget of €
4:396 a day in this 20-square-meter studio.
4:43The television is something I got from
4:46a friend. The oven here is also
4:48something I got. The microwave is
4:50something I got.
4:51So
4:52the hand-me-downs and the system under
4:54the desk, a stock of oil recovered from
4:56her parents. Enough to cook with all
4:58year?
4:58Like here, I already have three full
5:00bottles anyway. Let's say I saved at
5:04least 2, I mean, € 2.60, excuse me.
5:08Later, I'd really like to see € 200
5:10too.
5:12Sarah keeps smiling but admits to not
5:14sleeping very well because of her money
5:16problems. Where you end up having
5:18nightmares, sometimes about money. It
5:20was specifically that I didn't have
5:22enough money to pay my rent, and that
5:24I'll have to move back in with my
5:25parents. Uh
5:29currently, Sarah's mother is unemployed
5:31and her father earns minimum wage.
5:34However, like 80%of students, she is
5:36not eligible for a monthly grant.
5:39Because her mother was working last
5:41year, her parents' income exceeded the
5:43threshold by € 30. for both.
5:48Every noon, she eats her meal at the
5:50university cafeteria. A full meal for
5:53an unbeatable price, € 3.10, but even
5:55that is a luxury for her.
5:58I know I wouldn't be able to pay for
6:00the university cafeteria every noon and
6:02every evening with the money I have.
6:06That's why at night, it's usually
6:08buttered pasta, because as you can
6:10calculate, it ends up being a 60-cent
6:12meal for the night. Food is one of the
6:17biggest expenses for students on a
6:19tight budget. That's what brought
6:23Gamzé, a law student, here to the food
6:26bank in Bourges. The place is reserved
6:29for students and offers food at
6:31rock-bottom prices.
6:34Over a month, here, we have a € 40
6:36allowance, and in stores, it's the
6:38equivalent of € 280. It keeps me from
6:42being in the red at the end of the
6:43month. Prices seven times cheaper than
6:47in stores. Gamzé liked the system so
6:50much.
6:51How is your
6:52that she became a volunteer for 4 hours
6:55every Thursday.
6:56More work.
6:57Yeah, but that's okay. It makes me
6:59happy. Dairy product 1, 565. The
7:05turnout at this grocery store is
7:07exceeding all expectations. Every week,
7:09450 people, or 10%of the city's
7:11students, come here to do their
7:13shopping. At the end of the day, Gamzé
7:17also went to the checkout.
7:181.41
7:20€ 1.41 for the week's groceries.
7:24Tonight, Gamzé didn't break the bank.
7:30She would spend a lot more on pizza.
7:38Thanks to housing assistance, her 40
7:40m² apartment only costs her € 130 a
7:43month. Once she has paid all her bills,
7:46she has € 200 left to live on.
7:49You can come and eat, okay?
7:51Tonight, she's hosting a friend and her
7:54little brother, an apprentice at a
7:56pastry school, for dinner. Pepsi or
7:58Coke?
7:58She shares the apartment with him, but
8:00she pays for everything. I do volunteer
8:02work, I do
8:03You, you don't work?
8:04No.
8:05Why?
8:06Well, I'm in school.
8:09She is too?
8:11Yeah, but I leave at 8 a.m., I get back
8:16at 6 p.m. afterwards, I'm tired, you
8:20know. That's why
8:23I'm not. No,
8:26often on Sundays I sleep all day.
8:29Otherwise, it's just a rhythm you get
8:32used to, after a while, I'm used to it
8:34now. It makes me, but when I can sleep,
8:37I sleep.
8:38And it could go on for a long time.
8:426 years.
8:456 years to keep going like this
8:46it's just the beginning. Yeah.
8:48Good luck.
8:51When parents aren't there to help
8:52financially. Balancing studies and paid
8:56work often becomes an exhausting
8:58marathon for students. Beyond 20 hours
9:02of work per week, the success rate
9:04drops by 40%. Alice is a unique case in
9:10this Parisian business school. For two
9:14years, she has been working 30 hours a
9:16week as a waitress to pay for her
9:17tuition fees. € 6,900 a year for five
9:20years; she even had to take out a €
9:2220,000 loan. At 5 p.m., after classes,
9:27while most students hang out in front
9:29of the school, she rushes to the subway
9:31. Her second day begins
9:34all alone
9:35on public transport,
9:38about an hour by subway,
9:39commuting every day.
9:40Yeah, but it’s really not that much,
9:43because I feel like people in Paris
9:45spend a long time on the subway.
9:51Between her classes and her job, this
9:5320-year-old student logs over 60 hours
9:55a week.
9:56It's right there, by the subway exit.
10:02That day, she is starting at a new
10:04restaurant.
10:08Hello, how are you, Carole?
10:14Nice to meet you,
10:16and Alissa.
10:20Barely any time to get to know the team
10:23before starting her shift.
10:24Just a little bit.
10:29Okay. And I'll go get you an apron.
10:33As soon as you put on the work uniform,
10:34you're no longer a student.
10:38And which role do you prefer?
10:40Um, I love being a waitress. However, I
10:43love my studies. So if I could choose,
10:46I would choose my studies because that
10:47will truly lead me to the field I love,
10:49which is communications. And so,
10:52that’s it, that will be my career
10:54later on.
10:55A little bit of stress today, though?
10:57Yes, a little because it's the first
10:58day. So, naturally,
11:01that's 40,
11:0140.
11:02Over there is 31, that will be a table
11:03for 8,
11:04and these two tables here,
11:05the same.
11:06Like many restaurateurs, the manager
11:08hires students very regularly.
11:10If it's 30,
11:10that makes for long days for them. Are
11:12they tired sometimes, right?
11:13Uh yeah, I think they must get tired
11:15sometimes. Yeah, yeah, I think so.
11:18But, well, since we have a large team
11:19of young people, it creates a synergy,
11:21a pretty good atmosphere, so I think
11:22it's a good introduction to the working
11:24world.
11:24Except for the blood and the fight with
11:26Felix. For the manager, it is also a
11:28flexible workforce, ready to work late
11:30at night and on weekends.
11:35Do you know this software or not?
11:36No.
11:37In the middle, you have the menus.
11:38These are the lunch menus, a 16 menu, a
11:4023 menu. In the evening, you have a 22
11:41menu or a 28 menu.
11:42New menu, software, it’s appetizer,
11:44main course, and dessert. Alissa only
11:46has a few minutes to absorb everything
11:48before the first customers arrive. An
11:51ice cream and a drink, either Coke or
11:53orange juice.
11:54Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.
11:55Would you like an aperitif to start?
11:59Thanks to these two years of experience
12:01in the restaurant industry. It's
12:04because I know what I wanted. Alicia
12:06handles 4 hours of intense service
12:08without any sign of fatigue.
12:14Tart, tart. Prepared or unprepared, sir
12:16?
12:19She will only sit down for a few
12:21minutes to balance her till.
12:23That makes 927.35 and that makes 927.35
12:27and count her tips. That night, € 20
12:30—not bad for a first day. It’s
12:34midnight. Hurry if we don't want to
12:37miss it.
12:38The last subway is about to leave.
12:49Alicia crosses Paris to get home. It's
12:531 a.m. Her day will have lasted 19
12:55hours.
12:59Actually, I didn't really ask myself if
13:00it was hard because I didn't really
13:02have a choice. So I don't know, yes, I
13:05think it's hard, but we have a job, we
13:07have school, I always got up every
13:09morning to go. So in my opinion, if I
13:13was able to do it, it means it's not
13:14hard.
13:17Last effort of the day.
13:19Well, 6th floor with no elevator. We've
13:23arrived.
13:25Alicia reaches her small 17-
13:27square-meter studio. So here is for
13:33eating and there is for working.
13:37Minimal comfort and Parisian rent.
13:40It costs € 676 a month and that's
13:42huge.
13:43That's what you earned, actually.
13:45Yeah, let's say my salary, my little
13:48basket of goodies.
13:50Alicia receives € 280 in housing
13:52assistance each month. For the rest,
13:55she has to manage alone without any
13:57help from her parents.
13:59Sometimes, it's a real struggle. When
14:01you have an € 800 overdraft and know
14:02your salary will be € 600, you won't
14:04even cover it, and there's the rent on
14:05top. What are you supposed to do? And
14:08that, on the other hand, is...we live
14:09with difficulty. Especially since
14:11afterwards you don't focus on your
14:13studies or anything, you just panic.
14:16Up until now, Alicia has managed to
14:18balance work and good academic results.
14:20She still has 3 years of study ahead of
14:22her before she can hope to find a
14:24full-time job. Al
14:27don't think these marks are actually
14:29vivid. You have information on it.
14:32Barely has the class finished, Camille
14:35has to run after her professor.
14:38A student but also an employee, she has
14:41to manage two schedules. She has a
14:44favor to ask him.
14:46Excuse me, sir.
14:48Her complicity in case of absence from
14:50the tutorial, it's a mandatory course.
14:53I am which...And actually, are you the
14:55one who handles the tutorials or not?
14:57Uh, yes, I handle the group B tutorials
14:59. And so, if I ever...I have to find a
15:02job and it goes under a waiver, a
15:04request for attendance exemption. Yes
15:07but I'm not entitled because I'm on a
15:08scholarship.
15:10Are you a working scholarship student?
15:12Yeah.
15:13All right. That means government grants
15:15aren't enough to live on.
15:17That's exactly it.
15:19In exchange for her € 250 monthly
15:21grant, Camille is required to attend
15:23all classes. But to survive, she has to
15:26break the rules. That's the irony of it
15:29. To remain a student, the 22-year-old
15:32has to skip classes.
15:35Well, good luck.
15:36Well, thanks. Me too, right.
15:37Do you have many working students?
15:40Well, half, it's the same in every
15:41university. We have nearly half of the
15:44students who are no longer "real"
15:45students, but people who work and study
15:47at the same time. There's massive
15:49absenteeism. There's a significant
15:51number of students who are never there,
15:53and you can't blame them because they
15:55have to survive. Camille left her
15:59family home three years ago to pursue
16:01an IT degree. Her mother is a civil
16:03servant earning minimum wage. Her
16:05father, in a subsidized job, earns €
16:07750 a month. It's impossible for them
16:10to fund her studies. So she obtained a
16:13university room on campus. Housing
16:16reserved for the most precarious young
16:18people. It's not very tidy, I warned
16:25you. The desk area, the kitchen area,
16:34the bedroom area, and behind you is the
16:37bathroom area.
16:39How many square meters is it?
16:40In total? It's 9 square meters. Every
16:44month, out of her € 250 grant, she
16:46spends 136 on rent. She has € 100
16:49left for daily expenses. She often ends
16:52up in the red, even counting every euro
16:54.
16:55There's € 5 at the supermarket, €
16:5713 when I ate out. There's the train
17:00ticket, that's when I go back to my
17:02parents ', so € 9.60. I'd really like
17:05to have my eyes a little less on my
17:06budget and a little more on my classes.
17:10Events, private tutoring. Camille has
17:13always worked, too much according to
17:15her. Last year, she failed her exams.
17:18Today, like her, half of all students
17:20work during their studies. For 13%of
17:23them, it's a necessity. Camille would
17:30like to earn € 450 a month. An
17:33activist with UNEF, a student union,
17:36she's used to handing out campaign
17:38leaflets, but this time they are
17:40posters to land odd jobs.
17:42Excuse me, do you mind if I put up a
17:45small flyer for a student job, or not
17:47at all?
17:50Math tutoring, babysitting. Camille
17:52accepts anything that could help make
17:54ends meet. It's not the job I'm looking
17:59for first, but it's something that can
18:01help me out if I don't find anything.
18:03So at least it's a bit of security to
18:05have some money at the end of the month
18:07, you know.
18:09She would prefer a contract of 15 to 20
18:11hours per week. Her resume in hand. She
18:15checks every snack bar near the
18:17university because catering provides
18:19the most student jobs.
18:24Hello.
18:26Uh, I was wondering if you are looking
18:29for waiters or waitresses. I am
18:31a student, no thank you.
18:33Okay. Can I leave you a resume anyway,
18:35just in case?
18:36Hello. So, are you looking for someone
18:40to help out during the lunch rush or
18:43anything?
18:45No.
18:46Hello.
18:48I wanted to ask if you are looking for
18:50students to work or not. Yes,
18:53it's true. Have you worked in a bar,
18:57restaurant, or bakery/pastry shop?
19:00I haven't done that, but I've done
19:02catering service and I've done service
19:04work before. What is your availability?
19:07Uh, it depends on what you're looking
19:08for. I can adapt. I'm just at the
19:10university nearby.
19:12I'm looking for 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.,
19:14Monday to Friday.
19:16Every day.
19:16Yeah, I'll call you tonight because one
19:19person bailed on me yesterday, actually
19:21.
19:21Okay.
19:22So maybe, possibly, come for a trial
19:24tomorrow at noon.
19:25Okay. All right. Thank you very much,
19:27anyway.
19:27Have a good evening. Goodbye.
19:29Camille didn't even ask about the
19:31salary. She doesn't expect anything
19:32more than minimum wage. I'm not really
19:35in a position where I can afford to be
19:37picky or anything. It's more like they
19:41pick whoever is the least demanding
19:43among us, not us picking the one who
19:45pays the most.
19:49The next day, Camille passes the trial
19:51and lands the job. € 120 net for 20
19:55hours of work per week, which will be
19:57added to about thirty hours of classes.
20:00Her challenge: keep up this pace all
20:03year. 600 km away, Lisa's eyelids are
20:12getting heavy and it's only 10 a.m.
20:21I am literally dreaming right now.
20:24Talking too much, I can't concentrate.
20:26So, I have
20:32At just 18, this English student
20:34juggles over 20 hours of classes and 24
20:36hours of work each week. Lunch breaks
20:47are the rare moments where she can
20:48still enjoy time with her friends.
20:57Why are these moments important to you?
20:59Well
20:59because that way I can get closer to
21:00them. So I don't feel a bit excluded,
21:02you know. Knowing the latest gossip, so
21:05to speak, or knowing what's going on in
21:07their lives, and well, not feeling
21:08excluded, given that when they go out
21:10together, I can't because I'm working,
21:11so
21:15moments of lightness that she doesn't
21:17fully enjoy. Lisa has fallen behind on
21:20an essay, so as often happens, she
21:22works in a hurry on the corner of a
21:24table. She is the youngest in the group
21:28and the only one balancing two lives.
21:30Yes, but me too.
21:33I don't think I'd be able to do it,
21:34because in the evening when I get home,
21:36I'm tired, I don't want to work, and I
21:38don't think I could go to work after
21:40class.
21:41According to an official report, more
21:43than 15 hours of work per week doubles
21:46the risk of academic failure. Lisa has
21:49no choice. Her parents are separated.
21:52Her father's income doesn't qualify her
21:53for a scholarship, and since she is
21:55estranged from him, she must support
21:57herself. So, after 8 hours of classes,
22:00she begins the second part of her
22:02marathon day.
22:04I'm not really ahead of schedule, it's
22:06already 5:10 PM. I start work at 6:00
22:09PM. So I'm afraid, I'm really afraid of
22:11being late. So I really need to hurry,
22:14given that I have a 45-minute drive
22:16because of the 5:00 PM traffic.
22:19To get to work 15 km away, she bought a
22:22used car and spends nearly € 100 a
22:25month on gas. So that's the station,
22:30and then where I work is over there,
22:32where the tables and everything are.
22:36She only has 2 minutes left before
22:38starting her shift. Lisa landed a sales
22:42job at a newsstand, a temporary
22:44contract through which she earns €
22:47850 net per month.
22:51Once in uniform, she works for 3 and a
22:53half hours without a single break. She
22:58starts with the day's dishes. Then she
23:02moves to the register.
23:04Prepares the pastries for the next
23:07morning and restocks the products on
23:09the shelves. Lisa is sacrificing
23:12herself today to afford a better future
23:14.
23:16No, honestly, I really don't want to
23:17work here for the rest of my life, and
23:19so, well, I really want to become a
23:21French teacher abroad, and no, that
23:22wouldn't really be possible, you know.
23:25I really want to, well, English is my
23:28whole life. I mean, it's my passion.
23:31A passion that isn't always enough to
23:33keep up with the pace.
23:38Ugh, I clearly can't take it anymore.
23:42I’m so annoyed, I’m just done with
23:44this. I’ve had enough. It’s 10:00
23:50PM. A long day comes to an end for Lisa
23:53. She only wants one thing: to sleep.
24:027:30 the next morning. This apartment
24:06where she only sleeps costs 480 euros a
24:09month, half covered by housing aid.
24:13Always running late, Lisa gets straight
24:15to the point. A touch of makeup to hide
24:17the fatigue. Breakfast will have to
24:20wait. No, I can't eat in the morning if
24:26I want to get more sleep. So, I either
24:29bring something, buy something there,
24:31or I don't eat at all in the morning.
24:34And didn't you eat last night?
24:35Uh, no, I didn't eat at all. No, I
24:37didn't eat last night. So, I have to
24:41admit I'm a bit hungry, but I'd rather
24:43sleep than eat. So.
24:47It’s been barely a month that Lisa
24:50has kept up this frantic pace, and
24:52exhaustion is already taking over.
24:58Arriving at the last intersection
25:00before campus, she didn't see a car
25:02coming from her right. At fault, Lisa
25:08breaks down on the phone with her
25:11mother. I'll call you back when the
25:19paramedics get here. I couldn't stop
25:24blinking, I was so tired. So it's true,
25:26I didn't pay enough attention, didn't
25:28look properly. And so, there it is.
25:36Does your neck hurt here? You're sure
25:38it doesn't hurt at all? Hey.
25:39Don't hesitate to tell me, okay?
25:40No, no, it doesn't hurt.
25:43Lisa avoided the worst. She gets away
25:45with a sprained finger and a major
25:47scare. She leaves with the paramedics
25:50for some routine X-rays.
25:55By the next day, she’ll be back on
25:56the road to college and work. Iness
26:05also struggles to juggle everything.
26:08This economics student works two jobs.
26:11Lifeguard at a pool and waitress at a
26:14fast-food joint. Her shift starts in 15
26:17minutes and she fears her manager's
26:19reaction. For two weeks, she’s
26:23prioritized her classes and has missed
26:25many shifts. The risk tonight is that
26:32they’ll tell me, "Well, you're fired.
26:34" Why? Because I'm often late and
26:40sometimes I couldn't make it to work
26:43because of my college schedule or just
26:46because of the fatigue. It's because I
26:51work 33 hours a week on top of my
26:53classes. It's an intense pace, and
26:56after a while, your body just says stop
26:58.
27:01Iness arrives at the restaurant 20
27:03minutes late. Barely inside, she is
27:06confronted by her manager.
27:15Well, I, I didn't come.
27:17Yes. And I can't finish the pace or
27:21it's like that hesitating to speak
27:24because
27:26me too because I didn't call anyone
27:28if I had someone promised that I was
27:30going to, well, then the person the
27:34people, but in any case
27:43well, the job is over, isn't it. I tell
27:47myself that if I don't work here, I'll
27:49work somewhere else. That there are
27:52plenty of small jobs that are hiring.
27:56Iness is not in an emergency. She has
27:59set herself to work this year to fund
28:01an 8,000 € business school next year.
28:05For now, she is still living with her
28:07parents. Okay, I’ll give a little
28:11kiss. Iness is one of four children.
28:15Her mother is a nurse, her father a
28:17construction manager. Not enough to
28:19fund an elite school.
28:22Mom!
28:23Yes,
28:24how are you?
28:25Yes, I'm fine. And you? Was the day
28:27okay?
28:28Yeah, it’s fine.
28:29So, I went to after class.
28:32Yes. And
28:34they fired me.
28:35Is that true? What bothers you the most
28:37financially?
28:38Yeah. Well yeah, but there comes a time
28:41when you have to think about yourself,
28:42your health first, and enough is enough
28:44.
28:46Don't you think?
28:47Not really bad news, rather a relief
28:49for this mother who saw her daughter
28:51wearing herself out. What remains for
28:54her is the most painful part: the
28:56feeling of guilt. But I would have
28:59liked to be able to pay for her studies
29:01, pay for her business school, to take
29:04away all this material worry because I
29:07feel that at 20 years old, it's too
29:09much for her. As parents, it's our job
29:13to take care of that. Unfortunately,
29:16it's not possible. If my family funds
29:19my studies, I would already feel like
29:20I’m depriving them and for me, I know
29:22for me, it's not their job to do it. I
29:24have two arms, I have two legs. If I
29:26want to pay for something, I'll go work
29:27, I earn money. School is my future,
29:30it's my life.
29:35On the weekend, Iness has no more time
29:38for herself or her family.
29:40I'm off. Okay. Bye.
29:42I finish at 7 p.m.
29:43Okay. Good luck. Thanks. Ciao.
29:47She has to go to her second job at the
29:49municipal swimming pool in Torcy.
29:59How's it going, Alex?
30:00Iness,
30:01how are you?
30:02Yeah, I'm good, all good.
30:03It's fine.
30:04She could stop everything and take out
30:06a loan like 17%of students, but that
30:09solution is unthinkable for Iness.
30:12A student loan is conceivable. But that
30:16would mean starting life with a huge
30:18debt to pay off, and for me, that's not
30:20my ideal life. A caution all the more
30:25justified as nearly one in two students
30:27is still unemployed a year after
30:29graduating. That's why Iness wants to
30:34keep fighting to afford a top-tier
30:36school, which she believes will protect
30:38her from unemployment.
