The Education and Economic Engine Endowment
Idea Category: Education
Problem
Because many states continue to face budget challenges, many states have scaled back critical funding for education and entrepreneurship.
Solution
State Treasurer Cowell proposes the creation of a multi-billion dollar state-funded endowment using escheat money that pays for community college and university scholarships and invests in high-growth funds and companies. The endowment is literally an investment in the twin goals of educating our future workforce and creating new jobs.
