Now that one Boston University student, who spent years after high school in the Marine Corps because he could not afford college, has left Iraq, collected the Marines' $80,000 stipend, and enrolled in a four-year university, he does not intend to mess around. "I really want this," he told the Daily Free Press. "I had to kill to get here."
