Rationale

While free tuition for college is a good thing, making it compulsory takes away the ability for the people to choose what they want to do. What if someone wants to go to a trade school? They will most likely graduate before 25, forcing them to go to a traditional college.

Proposed Changes

University Tuition
Previous law
Compulsory higher education for all citizens until age 25
Free higher education for all
