This word choice surprised me as well. The average Big 10 tuition for nonresidents is approaching $40,000. It is better for in-state tuition, but locking students into wherever they happened to grow up also seems unfair.

Maybe states are paying them for locals so there is more graduates staying in the state and paying good taxes?

In my case, I attended a Big 10 school specifically because I was a resident, so the tuition was in-state.
