Aid to higher education plan aims at grants loans and subsidies
A bipartisan compromise would cost about 841 million dollars annually and expand college funding. It doubles construction grants, starts library upgrades, aids small private colleges, and offers need based grants 200 to 800 dollars per student with a 1000 dollar cap.
