1988 Budget Plan Would Slash Student Aid to $4.5-Billion; Bennett Cites Desire to Focus Resources on Younger Students.
Wilson, Robin
Chronicle of Higher Education, v33 n18 p17,21 Jan 14 1987
The Education Department's 1988 budget plan would require students to put more of their income toward paying college costs, and it would eliminate some student-aid programs such as College Work Study. The department's top priority was the education of younger children and ensuring that people graduate from high school. (MLW)
