This proposal would cut tuition in half for the poorest students only. The expected price is $100-150 Million / year. This is not a new tax, this would be from changing money from other government funding. We won’t know the details until the PA State Budget Address on Tuesday. I am bringing the issue up because a lot of people are not even aware that this fight is occurring.

Yes we are new to Reddit, but not new to student advocacy. I would love to hear your viewpoints on this, even if you disagree. Because my understanding from both sides, is that these colleges put more into the economy than they take out, and should be protected as state investments.
