College Student: Hillary's $275K Speaking Fee 'Ridiculous' | The Weekly Standard

JUL 18, 2014 • BY MICHAEL WARREN

"I don’t think her opinion would mean that much."


A senior at the University of Buffalo in New York called the $275,000 speaking fee the school paid to Hillary Clinton last year "ridiculous." Local TV station WVIB reported on the former secretary of state's appearance and the fee, which amounted to about 30 percent of the university's $900,000 total speakers' budget for the year.
WVIB reporter Joe Melillo spoke with UB senior Pat McKowne about how much his school paid Clinton.
"Gosh, I would say it's ridiculous, to be honest," says the student. "I don’t think her opinion would mean that much. They could get someone that people would look up to more than Hillary Clinton." Watch the video at link above-
