Unlike the idiocy of recruiting out-of-staters like the UW, Arizona grants in-state tuition to all honorably discharged veterans.

Arizona Grants In-state Tuition for All Honorably Discharged Veterans

April 15th, 2011

It didn’t get a lot of fanfare but Governor Brewer signed a bill a few days ago that granted in-state tuition for all honorably discharged veterans. This is a win-win for the state. It makes it easier for veterans to relocate to Arizona and it will eliminate the need for most veterans with residency issues to get financial aid at one of the universities, which would save the universities money. Additionally, there won’t be a real need for the Yellow Ribbon program anymore at public colleges in Arizona so that would be an additional money saver for the universities.

Some people need to be recognized for their work in regards to this legislation. The first is State Rep. Ted Vogt, who after leaving the Air Force struggled with residency issues when he attended the University of Arizona. He was one of the primary sponsors of this legislation and its driving force in the State House. Robert Rosinski also deserves a lot of praise. Robert is a student veteran the University of Arizona and he was really the face of the student veteran effort to get this bill passed. Additionally, the various veteran advocates at U of A, ASU, and NAU in conjunction with the veteran clubs (including veteran alumni) at the three universities all contributed to getting this bill passed.

Good job all around.

Well done.

Here in Washington, the idiots at the U-Dub are actually taking in-state slots away (well, from everyone but illegal aliens) so they can raise revenue by crapping on our kids to get kids from out-of-state locations to come here and pay the full boat.

This is absolutely the right thing to do. I’m proud of Arizona for so many things, but this one is close to the top of the list.
