...crowd that cheered him at a parade through Fall River soon after the story broke. Perhaps even in quiet, conservative Fall River, the world isn't as neat as it used to be. One must learn to forgive the sinner while hating the sin -- or risk shutting out the daughter who had the abortion, the son with AIDS, the nephew trapped by drugs.

Despite a patchwork quilt of aid that includes scholarships, loans and an on-campus job, Kenner's father, a train conductor, must now pay $6,000 out of pocket to send his daughter to school this year -- $2,000 more than in 1987. To help make ends meet, her mother recently took a job as a data processor. "I told my parents I'd go somewhere else," Kenner says, "but they wanted me to stay...
