Four students from the University of Minnesota visited Rep. Gene Pelowski at the State Capitol on Thursday to lobby on behalf of University bonding projects, as well as the proposed Gopher stadium. Their main issue was debt, with the average student graduating with $30,000 of debt which will take a decade or more to pay off.
