>What happens after Rice? ??? Who cares? The object here is to get talented people an education. What they do with that education is their decision. The owners of your hypothetical company can do whatever they please with the educations they have obtained over the course of their lifetimes. And the students, who now have an opportunity at a cost free education, can similarly do whatever they please with the educations they obtained. It's called freedom. Take all the educations we've been providing and go out and enjoy all the freedoms you have. Maybe I'm not understanding your view correctly? What, exactly, is the problem with allowing poor or middle class students into Rice at a reduced rate? (Or even free in most cases)?
