A-B=C?
A ("the Foothill students, most of whom live in Mountain View and nearby cities, skipped studying for a day")
-
B ("For many on the bus trip, a community college education was their ticket out of a world plagued by poverty and crime.")
=
C (So because funds have been slashed, these students will be stuck living in Mountain View--a city plagues by poverty and crime? Wow! I didn't realize we were so poor off.)
A little over the top wouldn't you say?
