Have you thought about making education financially accessible to anyone
with talent?

While I think that most "higher-education" is worthless (consider
the pseudo-sciences like sociology, or psychology, or Ghu help us,
"political science"), one might imagine some worth to your proposal.

If your goal were, for example, to establish scholarships for
serious academic studies, such as remain these days, I might support
it.  Studies in physics, or chemistry, or engineering.

I suspect, however, that your scholarships will go to such 
"scholarly studies" as sociology and its bizarre derivatives.

There is more "philosophy" in a freshman physics or chemistry
or math class than in any other study in a college.
