Should this be isolated to colleges that specifically take state funding? I know there are few that don't, but just to be clear.

Absolutely.  And that amendment is a bit unclear.  What exactly is the 25% for?

If it's campus-wide campus merchandise, I'd support it.  But some programs self-fund themselves with program merchandise.  If we made them put that money into tuition, those programs would lose that money.

Seeing no further debate, voting on the amendment is now open.  This will be a 24-hour vote.  Members will vote AYE, NAY, or ABSTAIN.

Is an amendment needed, considering HappyWarrior's response to the amendment? Not sure if the word "amenable" is definitive enough of his intentions, as I only vaguely know of the word.

I interpreted "amenable" to mean he is open to persuasion to support the amendment.

Voting is now closed.  The AYEs are 3, and the NAYs are 2.  The AYEs have it, and the amendment is agreed to.

Is this a four-year tuition freeze that applies to the individual classes or for next four years (as in, is it "Your tuition will remain the same for all 4 years of your career"), or in 2016, colleges can raise tuition?

OK.  Well that's not a tuition freeze, so we'll have to amend that as well.

What exactly is the change you want to make?  Most of that was in the last amendment.

I also don't like limiting it to freshman.  If someone transfers in as a sophomore from community college, they're out of luck.  It should be any incoming student for no more than 4 years (that's what CMU did, and they called it the "CMU Promise".)

Since I mistyped "now" as "not", I'll extend the vote an additional 24 hours.

I propose the following amendment. This should've been part of the last amendment.  Since it's a fix to keep the bill from having a conflict, I'll just bring it to a vote now.  Members will vote AYE, NAY, or ABSTAIN.  This will be a 24-hour vote.

You do realize that without this amendment, the law would contradict itself, right?

Because I think such tuition freezes on universities by the region are a quick fix at trying to keep tuition down, but it just leads to higher tuition for the next incoming class.  Plus, it puts an undue burden on the universities, as we're restricting how much they can charge for tuition without giving them anything in return.
