Assembly Bill Would Allow Oregon Students To Pay In State Tuition At College Of The Siskiyous

Assemblywoman Heather Hadwick has introduced Assembly Bill 1555, which would allow College Of The Siskiyous to enroll a limited number of Oregon students at in- state tuition rates, strengthening Northern California’s rural healthcare, public safety, and natural resources workforce. College Of The Siskiyous near the California–Oregon border in Weed, serves a bi-state rural community where residents frequently live in one state and work in the other. Co-authoring the bill is Senator Megan Dahle who said “Smoothing the path for Oregon students to attend will help the college, one of the state’s smallest, build the enrollment it needs to sustain academic and job-development programs that build better futures for all students.”
