University or how the community (poor included) subsidized the rich. In Europe it's different system but the same result, you have rich and/or educated families that could afford and support their children at the back of the community as a whole. If a small percentage of the poor classes end up with a diploma it will be a bonus, but it will not amount to a majority.
