OSU professor questions Columbus Promise value
An Ohio State professor has questioned the effectiveness of the Columbus Promise program, which offers free community college to Columbus City Schools graduates. Critics argue that the program has low completion rates and may divert students from four-year colleges, while supporters contend it increases college enrollment for low-income students. Data shows that only about 5% of eligible graduates have earned degrees through the program, with many students leaving due to work demands or academic unpreparedness, prompting debate over its long-term benefits.
