(2) It is the intention of the Legislative Assembly to establish financial assistance programs to enable qualified Oregonians who need student aid to obtain post-secondary education in Oregon’s community colleges, public universities or independent not-for-profit institutions of post-secondary education.

This review by the Legislative Assembly on tuition and fee increases should occur biennially. [1999 c.1070 §2; 2007 c.802 §2; 2007 c.858 §38; 2011 c.637 §142]
