Panel backs BEOG reform to widen college aid reach
The House Appropriations Committee approved a Obey backed BEOG reform to boost aid for lower middle and middle income families. The plan ties a $600 million increase for 1978 to expanded eligibility, arguing current rules favor very poor students and ignore many working class and farm families. The extra funds would cover cost of living rises and allow broader program expansion.
