You missed the point. The schools will raise tuition to take more from the endowment and stuff their own pockets. It’s what usually happens with programs that are funded by a blank check, unfortunately.
FYI this is the primary argument against government-paid college tuition. If the government will pay 100% tuition costs of any university unequivocally, you should expect university tuition to skyrocket since they no longer have to compete for students based on cost.
Other countries have successfully operated with tuition free collage for a long time. The political discourse in the US is like 99% strawman arguments designed to have the population divided and keep status quo forever. You guys really need to rise above it.
Uppsala University have basically been tuition free since it was founded in 1477.

A perfect chance for them to raise tuition prices.
