Not only that, but he is also advocating higher tuition for high demand non-STEM majors like psychology (yes, he does assume that psychology is non-STEM). And he wants to give more of the state scholarship money to STEM and less to non-STEM as well. I find it quite ironic that a Republican governor who is anti- big government believes it's the state's role to decide what students should major in.
