Students urge Legislature to ban colleges from withholding transcripts over unpaid debt

The Oregonian/OregonLive found that three of the state’s public universities are currently withholding the transcripts of more than 20,000 former students over debts as little as $5. Thousands more students are likely impacted by the practice at other public and private universities and community colleges throughout the state.
