Program: The Iowa Journal #129
Broadcast Date: Jan. 14, 2008
The Iowa Journal visits an Iowa community that is developing a plan to help pay for student's tuition. It's called the Davenport Promise. Supporters of the plan believe it also offers the city a tool to reverse the out-migration of young families to the suburbs. Longer term it could provide Davenport with a better educated workforce.
