At least it will be priced according to its value.
City College ain't what it used to be and neither are the vast majority of the other city and state colleges/universities. But then, so are the Ivies now.

Same as today: people with Liberal Arts degrees!
Classic bait and switch. They will turn down so many “needy” applications that only the rich who can pay and the prefered minorities will get in. The middle class will be left holding the bag and the bill - getting nothing but scorn and a sh*t sandwich.
Libs are so generous...with other people’s money.

Everyone making over 125K will pay for everyone making less than 125K
Great idea! Send all illegals & Muslims to New York.
Welfare too, across the USA, give all a ticket to New York.
This is a blessing from God.
On your comment of ‘free’ education in various countries and the battery of tests required....I’ll use Germany as an example.
As a kid, you have to pass out of Gymnasium (higher level of high school), in order to attend a university. Only the brighter of the kids get into this situation.
So once you apply for a university in Germany, you will pay some minor tuition cost per year (figure $600 per semester), of which you could apply to the state and have them cover the cost.
Heavy drinking or not showing up for class? You won’t make it past the first year, and they will kick you easily out. NCAA-like sports in the German university setting? No, absolutely none. A lot of non-professor staff members hidden within the cost factor of each university? No, you won’t find added cost like that. Private university cops? No, if they have a problem...they call the city cops and let regular law take place.
You could run a ‘free’ scheme like New York suggests, but you’d have to change dozens of current practices and probably fire thirty-percent of the excess support staff, and dump all the NCAA sports gimmicks. I don’t see that happening.
” FREE! FREE! From New York’s MONEY TREE! No one pays, we just pluck a few million more when we need it! FREE!!!! “
isn’t this the way Obama built up our huge national debt?

——————FREE! FREE! From New York’s MONEY TREE! No one pays, we just pluck a few million more when we need it!————
so we can assume that obama is renting out the mints money printing to the states now ?
the problem here is it is NOT free.
Some poor soul has to pay for this, free crap.
Where are they going to get all of those volunteer professors?
No such thing as free. Somebody has to pay the bills. Or are all those liberal professors going to teach for free?
Great, a degree in cranking it.
In other words, they will also be dumbed down as people that are not serious take advantage of it and don’t work as hard (no motivation for scholarships or savings). That will just ensure the best and brightest go out of state (likely on a permanent basis). Also many schools are struggling with budgets as it is...they expect taxpayers to make it up to pay for salaries, programs, maintenance and research?
