Yes, and those kids didn't CHOOSE to live out-of-state. So why punish them?

"what's disgusting is that american out-of-state students don't get the same break. "

Why? Our Texas colleges and universities are for TEXANS, not yankees and Californians.

Not all Americans are TEXANS and not all TEXANS are Americans.

When someone:
Lives TEXAN
Works TEXAN
Talks TEXAN
Walks TEXAN
Thinks TEXAN
Worships TEXAN
Looks TEXAN
Eats TEXAn
Plays TEXAN
Pays TEXAN taxes
Supports TEXAN professional sports teams
and loves TEXAS,

They are TEXANS, and deserve the same rights and privileges as all TEXANS. Who cares if they're not Americans. Texas taxpayers don't get to say who's an American and who isn't. And a bunch of jealous yankees shouldn't prevent us from saying who's a TEXAN and who ain't.
