New Mexico to offer free college tuition to all state residents

@WayOutWestMom : Additionally, adults receive free tuition at any of New Mexico’s two year colleges. Not sure if this applies to those who already have a college degree, but desire a new skill or trade (such as wind energy or paralegal studies).

@ucbalumnus : Not sure that it is a good investment to provide scholarships for those who have earned only a 2.0 GPA after 2 years of college. WayOutWestMom wrote that one must maintain at least a 2.5 GPA which is better, but New Mexico’s colleges & universities are not among the most academically challenging schools in the US.

Regardless, New Mexico deserves praise for this proposal.
