Draft deferments keep students in line with Selective Service
Bailey argues leniency toward students is essential to the system. Deferments are temporary and the board weighs more than a 2.0 GPA, considering records and course work. Critics say rich boys escape, but Bailey notes deferment is postponement, not exemption, and training counts. He cites Okmulgee Tech and barber college as valid deferment paths. The second fact notes whiskey’s English introduction in the 12th century and Spanish Moors first distilling Europeans.
