In recent years, dozens of free, debt-free, and reformed financial aid programs and proposals have cropped up in states across the country. State legislatures have finally started to reinvest in higher education, and federal and state-level politicians have increasingly pledged to pursue ambitious action on college affordability and the explosion in student debt.
Join us on September 26, when The Century Foundation will convene higher education experts, lawmakers, faculty, and advocates to discuss and debate the next big thing in college affordability. Participants will identify major obstacles facing low- and middle-income students, lay out bold ideas to address those challenges, and debate actionable policy design to help chart the course for lawmakers in the next Congress and beyond.
This event is co-hosted by The Century Foundation and New York University.
