Legislature weighs private college aid plan for Texas

It suggests tuition supplements and contracts to accept surplus state students, despite concerns over public funds supporting private or church affiliated schools. Critics note costs and qualifications, but defenders cite value of dual systems and the need to preserve private colleges' facilities. The panel urges a careful look at financial impact on the state treasury.
