Governor Jay Nixon is pushing a new, private nonprofit university, a potential competitor to more established public and private schools in the state, that wants to persuade tens of thousands of Missourians that they should complete the college career they left behind years ago. It’s Western Governors University, formed back in 1995 by a group of governors in Western states – not including Missouri – to lure would-be students. For a flat-fee tuition of $6,000 a year, students can take as many courses as they think they can handle.
