It's a balancing act. Texas is practically in a civil war over this issue. Perry is trying to make UT more accessible for kids, but there is a large faction who want the school to be more of a public ivy and think Rick is trying to turn it into a community college.
It's not like KU has crazy high requirements. 21 on the ACT and a 2.0 makes you eligible, and the acceptance rate is 93%. KSU has the same requirements and accepts 99%.
