explain girl's opinion
Narrator
Now listen to two students discussing the announcement.
Female Student
I think it’s totally unfair that the Buonocore Scholarship is only being offered to students in the Romance Languages department. Like, it’s an amazing opportunity, and it’s SAD to see it monopolized in this way.
Male Student
Is it really such a bad thing to limit the scholarship to one department, though? I mean, uhh… the fewer students compete for the prize, err… the easier it will be for students like US to win it. After all, there are only seven other students in the whole Romance Languages department besides us.
Female Student
That doesn’t change the fact that it’s wrong for the scholarship to be limited to our single department. It’s a matter of principle. First of all, there are students in other departments, like History and Classics and Renaissance studies, all of whom… all of whom would definitely benefit from a year in Italy. Why shouldn’t THEY get a chance to submit their work to the committee?
Male Student
But if they also submitted their essays, it would be harder for US to get the prize.
Female student
Look, just because something benefits me personally doesn’t make me think that it’s right. I mean, I have a lot of FRIENDS in History and Classics and Renaissance Studies, and I totally agree with them that it’s wrong for them to be…ineligible to compete for the scholarship. After all, Romance Languages is a very SMALL department, and it seems abusive for us to keep this resource all to ourselves.
Male Student
I guess I see where you’re coming from.
Female Student
Also, I think that it TAKES SOMETHING AWAY from the honor of winning a scholarship if the competition isn’t very strong. I’d rather know that I earned the opportunity to study in Rome by competing against the very best students… instead of thinking that I was only honored because other talented people were unnecessarily EXCLUDED from the process.
