> apparently paying students to attend online community college

No, they provide student aid that covers some (it's not much) of low income students' living expenses so that they can actually study and get through college, instead of working fulltime and it taking 2-3 times as long.

It's the same type of financial aid scholarships 4-year universities give out too, and in most/all States.
