Detroit bankruptcy creditors ask judge to take steps toward sale of DIA treasures

57. I'm going to post my National University idea again...

... this could be part of it.

I think Detroit would be the perfect place for a National University. Tuition would be free, food and housing would be free, and it would accept students from every state and U.S. territory. It would also accept children of undocumented workers who graduate from U.S. public high schools and plan to become U.S. citizens.

Majors and certifications would be somewhat limited to subjects where there is a public need, for example primary care physicians, nurse practitioners, physicians assistants, teachers, other professions now often open to H1-B visa workers, etc., etc.

It would be a place where students from wealthy to impoverished backgrounds, students of all ethnic and cultural backgrounds, could interact with one another and learn how to work together. Since this would be one of the goals of the university, I think it should be a single campus, to prevent geographical segregation.

Upon graduation there would be no obligation but to go out and make the world a better place.

This could be a part of such a Federally funded institution.

In any case, this museum is worthy of a Federal intervention. If such actions are good enough for the mega-banks or General Motors, it's even more appropriate here.
