WOW!! A group of anonomous donors in my hometown (Kalamazoo) have promised to pay 65% to 100% of the college tuition of every public high school graduate from the class of 2006 for at least 13 years. If a student goes to KPS from K through 12 grades, then 100% of tuition is guaranteed. It is limited to public universities and community colleges in the state of Michigan, and only if a graduate has a cumulative GPA of at least 2.0.
