What are you talking about?
First off, Northeastern is a PRIVATE COLLEGE! Secondly, do you have any idea what you have just proposed here? Pure and total socialism. "If the government funds it then the government keeps it?" OH MY GOD! Are you completely off your meds???

Plus, add to that just how many millions of dollars some of these schools also get from past alumni and corporations that make donations. Now who gets' the patents?

As for the whole "selling sex for grades" thing, you just tipped your hand as to the real reason behind this dubious posting.
