charitable notions are great, but this seems like a super ineffective form of charity no?

When you say "ineffective" what do you mean it is not effective at?

Per dollar spent, giving people scholarships is super wasteful. Lowering cost of attendance would be far more impactful, among other things.

Celebs love to engage in lottery like charity that makes great PR. "I just gave free suits to 100 people outside a shelter!" kind of stuff..

yeah, and this seems super effective for Nicki Minaj! AND it's a good thing to do — I'd classify it as part of a virtuous cycle for her.

it's STILL impressive that she would choose to do this.

I think it's even particularly inspired: unlike a suit, an education is presumably an appreciating asset.

Can you IMAGINE the emotional impact of having your college paid for by your celeb idol? Lifetimes of gratitude.

I would never refer to this as wastefully deployed capital.

I think this also strongly accesses the way that a college education is seen in an even more valued way (vs in general) in black communities
