Chicago 1 - Assignment 2020

Free College?

Should public colleges be free in America like public K-12 schools? College is free in countries such as Germany, Norway, and Luxembourg and nearly free in Austria, France, and Spain, and very low cost in Sweden, Finland, Malaysia, Brazil, and Argentina. The USA has free education up to Grade 12 - why not all the way to a doctorate? State a position on whether you think public college should be free in America just as public K-12 is free.
