Dorothy Spencer used the profits from her book to start a scholarship program that bears her name and is dedicated to her principals.
Starting in September of 1940 and continuing today, the Spencer Scholarship program has helped more than 3,500 young people successfully complete undergraduate, graduate and post-graduate study. The scholarships provide for tuition, books, room and a weekly stipend to cover incidental expenses.
From these humble beginnings, the program currently has over 100 students engaged in study during any given semester.
If you're interested in applying, though, there are a couple small catches. First, you have to be invited to apply by a "sponsor," whom you'll visit once a week to discuss your education. Second, Ms. Spencer's book, The Spencer Plan, is about "settling domestic misunderstandings [by] the giving and submitting to carefully regulated corporal punishment."
Which means any time you miss class, violate dress code standards, or fail to complete your homework, your sponsor will bend you over their knee, bare your bottom, and spank you.
If you're interested, I suggest going to a college campus and looking for somebody whose hands look swollen. Rest assured, this is completely above board. It's nothing like letting somebody spank you for money.
You'd probably tell your roommate about that.
