    Rick Perry's Plan: $10,000 for a B.A. - Room for Debate
    Will a college degree that costs $2,500 a year be worth the paper it's printed on?
    Probably not.   Tuition was free at many schools.  Pay the professors. Stipend the grad students.  The tax bite will be modest.  If the tax supported schools are too selective academically, the fee supported schools will be selective economically.

    Perry's College Plan: It's Just a Start - Room for Debate
    Governor Perry's proposal is refreshingly precise, and far more realistic than some people think. Its flaw is that it doesn't go far enough.
    This is just bad economics. Argument will not change facts.

    How the Texas Plan Might Work - Room for Debate
    Given the intransigence of existing colleges, the solution may be to create new institutions blending online and traditional teaching.
    This looks like a fifty hour week to me.  30 hours teaching and prep.
    20 for research.  Not going to happen.

    Libyans Turn Wrath on Dark-Skinned Migrants
    Quaddafi recruited mercenaries to his south. They have not been paid recently.  The best thing to do is deport them where ever they wish to go home.
