Sorry Tim, but if kids can get a comparable education for less money and be free of Marxist dogma, traffic blocking Hamas fans screaming at them and not worry about getting mugged because their campus won’t allow police to arrest thugs, they won’t be beating a path back to Hellinois anytime soon, if ever even after they graduate.

Well of course they would accept them. Many high performing students go to other states for school, since costs and scholarships are more favorable. If U of I could actually get in-state tuition down to a manageable level (when compared to other states) we would consider enrolling our kids. Until then, it is a hard no. We want to give our kids a chance to succeed and not be beholden to the tax burdens in Illinois. Enrolling in college somewhere else seemed to be a good place to start.
