Financing a College Education.

Chase, Alston

Atlantic, v245 n4 p92-98 Apr 1980

The current system of financial aid is reviewed. It is noted that higher education is now more accessible to more people, but at a great cost in terms of both money and values, since the middle class is reluctant to make financial sacrifices for its children. Specific grant and loan programs are reported. (LBH)
