I'm among those who click on this thread, when I see it updated. I like Michigan cities and I like to see what the peer cities of the city I post on are doing. Which everyone should do.

The similar-sized city I post on also offers some type of free college to local high school graduates up to the junior college level and they can transfer to a four-year college. They are required to stay in the city for two years after getting that degree or certification. I think Kalamazoo started that movement, which I think one or more (not sure how many?) states have tried... yes, at the statewide level! There was an effort to make it national at one time.

Thanks for visiting, and ditto to you! Kalamazoo should take some cues from Winston-Salem. It looks like a happening place - one that I hope to visit some day.

Yes, I'm pretty sure Kalamazoo lays claim to being the first entity to try a system like The Promise. A state or nationwide system sounds amazing... one can dream.
