But I've heard that, especially around the bridges, a lot of dihydrogen monoxide inhalation occurences happen.

We also have monsters that breath it up here.

True story.

NO WAY.  DISBELIEVE!

We have so much of it, we just dump the excess into the ocean.

Not me. I have nothing to with our dihi redistribution and waste management program.

We too have water that fall into the sky and monsters that breathe it. Theyre considered a common part of the diet. Even the water scorpions. But in our language they are called lobstah.

Its pretty much a relief that this bill doesn't apply to community colleges, just (so far) the big three state colleges.

[Don Coyote]

What I want to know is if it also applies to vets. If it does, that is another possible line of attack against it.

[Freeky]

I can't fucking read the stupid thing, its too hard to find.  

As far as I know, it's for everybody.

[Freeky]

Athletes and academic scholars are exempt, I guess.

What I want to know is if it also applies to vets. If it does, that is another possible line of attack against it.

An amendent, introduced by Rep. Matt Heinz, D-Tucson, exempting honorably discharged and active duty service members failed.

"I'm a veteran and I don't think I should get free university tuition," Kavanagh [One of the prime sponsors of HB 2675 Rep. John Kavanagh, R-Fountain Hills] said. "Some veterans are extremely wealthy adults."

Kavanagh is the guy who proposed the bill based on two year old data, during a year where 48% of students didn't have to pay tuition.

Campbell said students should have every available tool to succeed and HB 2675 is a tuition increase that would deter many students from pursuing a higher education.

"We have one of the lowest rates of financial aid in the country," he said. "According to our state constitution, we should be providing a free, or as free as possible education. What problem are we trying to solve with this?"

Kavanagh said he would "bend over backwards" to make education affordable, but believed students should contribute to their education.

"We do not believe university education should be totally free," he said.

I keep hearing about it got pulled and then I can't find anywhere that says so.

[Don Coyote]

Well shitfuckdamn.
Someone should maybe share this with some people.

What kind of shit is that? How does "some vets are extremely wealthy" equate to "lets force all vets to pay 2 grand for their college when their federally granted gi bill states it will cover all tuition at public universities"

I didn't do 4 fucking years just have some pencil dick decide that I need to spend 2 grand a year to "contribute to my education".

You should have spent more time fighting for your country in the boardroom of Goldman Sachs.  They pay for everything.  Even sex changes.  I bet they'd pay for your college out of the petty cash tin.

And one day I could hope to be rich like them.
