An innovative Oregon plan to allow college students to defer paying
tuition until after they graduate and begin a career has failed to gain
support from the state's higher education board.
The panel said Oregon has much more important things to spend its
money on, including an expansion of need-based financial aid and
bolstering community college and university operations, than to launch a ground-breaking but potentially unworkable tuition-free "Pay It Forward" plan, the Oregonian reported.
Pay It Forward would allow students to attend college tuition-free in
exchange for paying back a predetermined, fixed share of their income
for an extended period after leaving college.
