I think this raises legitimate concerns but I don't think the answer to those concerns is to oppose Obama's proposal outright. I think the answer is to insist that the standards for the program should be as good as the first two years at the flagship state university.
This could be made explicit, for example, by 1) attaching a condition that anyone who completes the program with the required GPA be automatically accepted as a transfer student at the flagship state university and 2) attaching a condition that the flagship state university has to be part of the process of certifying the program with 1) in mind.
