Equality and Equity

A large problem many students face when it comes to attending college stems from the unaffordability of attending. While on the surface, taking out student loans may seem like an option, many low-income students have to help supplement their family’s income and can’t afford to not work. Meaning the playing field isn’t always level. On top of this, many of the most brilliant minds come from low-income family situations. And making college affordable to those who may otherwise not be able to attend will have far-reaching effects on innovation and economic stimulation.
Enhance Society

Think of all the things that we might not have had, had it not been for higher education But, really, think about all the people that might be out there, that are currently unable to afford college; what might we gain from helping them get the education that would rocket and propel them forward?!
;;;;; Another reason that offering free college tuition would benefit society is workforce expansion. More people qualified and able to work means more applicants in the job pool, more competition, and the creation of more jobs. This would be especially meaningful if we could utilize the workforce increase to expand US production and reduce the necessity for foreign imports, thus stimulating the American economy even further.
