It has nothing to do with "free loading". Its about the getting a return on the STATES dollar.
His whole point in donating was to get a tuition waiver for his kid? The ones who give the most aren't going to care if they save 5K a year.
LSU educated this kids at a reduced fee, subsidized fee at that. They put no tax money into the State...then they LEAVE. What money has the tax payer seen for his 1/3 investment? None.

first of all, do you have stats on how many actually leave, what about in-state students that leave? Second, my wife and I owned a house and worked 12 years in Louisiana before we moved. Hell, I may buy a small house in BR before it's said and done.
I certainly have empathy for the budget woes and understand doing away with this program...but the implication that somehow OOS kids of alums are stealing from Louisiana is a bit over the top.
