New Mexico's governor just signed a bill to make college tuition-free | CNN
For most New Mexico residents, college will now be officially tuition-free after Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham signed Senate Bill 140. Many states across the country have moved to provide some sort of tuition-free college education.
I've been an advocate for free or almost free tuition for quite some time. Using tax dollars for education results is probably the best use of public money there is, with nearly all economists finding such spending always generates a positive return.
Frankly, free or almost free tuition may be the only thing that can stop K-State's declining enrollment, which was down another 3% in 2021, IIRC.
