Have you been living under a rock these past, say, 5 years? Daniel Dennett is arguably one of the most read and most talked-about contemporary philosophers.
And if you can run for a top flight school, admission probably isn't much of a problem either.

IF you can get into any university you want, THEN tuition is not an issue. And there's more than one reason for this identity to hold.

That's an oddly insulting comment. I'm well aware that Dennett has acquired a certain level of fame, even among casual readers of philosophy and others who engage in debates and discussions about popular topics like atheism and evolution. In my earlier post, I didn't say that I wasn't aware that Dennett is still around, or that I wasn't aware that people still read and talk about him. I said that I remembered him very well, from his days as a young professor in the '70s, and that I was glad to see that he's still out there, writing and talking about important things. I'm even glad to see that you have apparently acquired a passing familiarity with him, at least to the extent that you feel comfortable insulting someone who remembers him from a time that, judging from the tone and content of your comment, probably predated your birth.

Is that why Korean shop keepers and the black population get along so well in some urban centers?

With annual tuition of $40,000 most people don't consider USC a "cheap" degree.
