I guess one way out of it for schools is to actually kill the waiver and pay these students tuition PLUS enough to cover tax on it. So a double tax for schools. And to afford that they will probably need to raise tuition on everyone else.

This also speaks to a kinda backwards ass mentality towards higher education in America in general. The response, instead of why wouldn't we want more accessible higher education, is of course education shouldn't be free! (See: Europe)
