Why is it college students are deemed "good material"?
Is it potential of higher income translates to more giving for the ministry?
Is it higher education equates to better grasp of the "high gospel" and thus embracing the vision Witness Lee's ministry has been promoting?
Maybe it is a quest for a form of legitimacy through the association with and acceptance by college-educated people.
