Passage 3

短文3

A new Bill in the Ohio legislature would require state public colleges and universities to send prospective students a packet of information. This would include costs of college, grants and scholarships. It will also include expected monthly loan payments and projected salary after college.

俄亥俄州立法机构的一项新法案将要求州立公立学院和大学向准学生发送信息资料包。这将包括大学费用、助学金和奖学金。它还将包括预期的每月贷款还款额和大学毕业后的预计薪资。

State Representative, Adam Matthews, is one of the two legislators who proposed the Bill. He said it would give prospective students more information about what to expect once they graduate.

州议员亚当·马修斯 (Adam Matthews) 是提出该法案的两名立法者之一。他说，这将为准学生提供更多关于毕业后预期情况的信息。

"Putting that information in front of them will give them the best opportunity to match their skills and their dreams to what our schools can provide," said Matthews. He notes that the state can only regulate public institutions in this way but he hopes private institutions in Ohio follow the lead of the state and post similar information.

马修斯说：“将这些信息摆在他们面前，将为他们提供最佳机会，使其技能和梦想与我们的学校所能提供的相匹配。”他指出，该州只能以这种方式监管公立机构，但他希望俄亥俄州的私立机构效仿该州的做法，发布类似信息。

He believes giving out this information will help Ohio's colleges and universities to be more competitive. The information will highlight what a great value they have for their very reasonable cost.

他认为，发布这些信息将有助于俄亥俄州的学院和大学更具竞争力。这些信息将凸显出他们以非常合理的成本所拥有的巨大价值。

Ohio's schools are already competitive. The state attracts more undergraduate students than it sends to colleges out of state. Many colleges and universities currently provide similar information on their websites. This includes tuition, fees, graduation rates and more. But students need to search for the information. This Bill would require the universities and colleges to send a packet directly to students.

俄亥俄州的学校已经具有竞争力。该州吸引的本科生人数多于其送到州外大学的人数。许多学院和大学目前在其网站上提供类似信息，包括学费、杂费、毕业率等。然而，学生需要搜索这些信息。该法案将要求大学和学院直接向学生发送资料包。
