Urges U S Help for Poor Students
The Carnegie Commission on Higher Education urged the incoming Nixon administration to fund a larger federal role in college costs. It proposed direct grants, federal matching funds, loans, work study and fellowships to expand access, aiming to raise lower income students’ enrollment from two to one versus higher income families by 1976. The plan envisions a GI Bill like program adding about one million students over eight years and costs between 7 and 13 billion dollars through 1976, with current spending around five billion. It also calls for major expansion of medical education to train more doctors.
