Modern indentured servitude, eh?
My old company used to sponsor H1-Bs for green cards. Yep, you guessed it, you had to keep working there for two years after you got your green card, or you had to pay back enormous legal fees.
When my buddy finished his two years on March 17, we told him his green card was no good without a green hat to go with it!
haha!
love freedom.
Sounds like slavery to me.
What if they take welfare in another state? Cheaper for NY than if they stayed and took it there.
But there will be fewer jobs for these grads because NY taxes, already sky high, will have to be raised even more, driving business out of state.
I'm trying to understand the "free" part here.
Indirectly, its an admission that the government in New York knows they aren't offering incentives to stay in the state.
"We took the governor's original plan and made it better, by requiring students to maintain a certain GPA and to live and work in New York after they graduate," said Scott Reif, a spokesman for the Senate's Republican leadership.
I don’t think this would hold up in Court.
Yup. And people fall for gimmicks like this all the time.
Just wait til they get older and find out that knee won't be replaced!
“I don’t think this would hold up in Court.”

Why? (No argument,I really don’t know.)
.
How do they verify you are still in NY? Report to a probation officer?
Slave plantations, indian reservations, urban ghetto, and now the state college, are all Democrat scams.
Genius though, NY must now keep all elite liberals, and NeverNewYork can have liberty.
Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.
Somehow the editor wrote the wrong headline... It should be:
Republicans and Democrats hock taxpayer homes to give open budgets to state colleges and universities.
The college budgets will BLOOM under this ‘plan’ and taxpayers will be paying three to four times as much as they anticipate they’ll be paying as all the faculty and staff come racing to get their piece of everyone’s property.
Here’s a string I would love to have seen... If you want the taxpayer paid degree, it must be for an actual degree - no liberal arts majors need apply. Least we’d have a shot at getting educated students who at least have a chance of becoming taxpayers.
Besides, Starbucks already said they’re going to be hiring immigrants anyway.

I don’t know if the premise was accurate, but that was the basis for the (very good) TV show “Northern Exposure.” A guy gets his med school paid but has to be a doctor in a city in Alaska.
I think in this case it is a loan that you repay by staying or repaying. Prepaid employment.
Something of value was offered and given so this is just a contract.
