Wilson Rawls Quote

What are all those people doing under the trees? I asked. Those are students, Grandpa said. They’re probably studying their lessons. They have their classes inside those buildings. That wouldn’t be a bad place to go to school, I said. Instead of having to stay in the schoolhouse to study, you could just go outside and sit under a tree. I think I’d like that. I hope I live to see the day when you go to college here, Grandpa said. Do you think you’d like it?
