Educational Groups Oppose Student Loan Plan
Collegiate Press Service
A recommendation that the
federal government establish a
novel loan program to help under-
graduates pay for their education
faces stiff opposition from two
powerful college associations.
If adopted, the plan, proposed
by a White House advisory panel,
could drastically alter the present
system of financing American
higher education.
The proposal calls for the esta-
blishment of an Educational Op-
portunity Bank authorized to bor-
row money at going government
rates. The bank would lend money
to any undergraduate coll'ege or
other postsecondary student for
financing his education in return
for an agreement by the student
to pay back a small percentage of
his annual income for 30 or 40
years after graduation.
Opponents of the loan program
say it would shift the major res-
ponsibility for support of higher
education to the students.
In addition to providing funds
for students to attend college, the
plan is designed to make it easier
for colleges arid universities to
raise their tuition and other
charges. With students able to
borrow all the money they need
for their education, both public
and private einstitutions would no
longer feels obliged to keep prices
as low as possible.
The Educational Opportunity
Bank was recommended by the
Panel on Educational Innova-
tion. The panel's report was made
public September 8 without en-
dorsement of the Office of Science
and Technology.
No Recommendation
Shortly after the report was re-
leased, a joint statement rejecting
the recommendation was released
by the National Association of
State Universities and Land-
Grant Colleges and the Associa-
tion of State Colleges and Univer-
sities. The two associations repre-
sent more than 300 institutions
of higher education enrolling
more than half of all U.S. stu-
dents. An official for the Amer-
ican Association of Junior Col-
leges also opposed the proposal.
Preliminary estimates indicate
the bank could be self-sustaining
if it charged borrowers 1 per cent
of their gross income over 30
years for each $3,000 borrowed,
Thus, for example, a student who
borrowed $2,000 a year for four
years of college, or a total of
$8,000, and earned $10,000 in some
subsequent year would pay $266
that year, or $22 a month.
The report suggests the annual
payments be collected in con-
junction with the borrower's fu-
ture income tax.
The panel said a borrower
would have the option at any time
of withdrawing from the plan by
paying, in a lump sum, the
amount borrowed, plus interest
compounded at 6 per cent, with
credit for payments made earlier.
More Responsibility
An Educational Opportunity
Bank would "increase the extent
to which students can take res-
ponsibility for their own educa-
tion, instead of depending on a
'free ride' from either their par-
ents or the government," the
panel added.
Opposing the plan, Dr. Edgar
F. Shannon, Jr., president of the
University of Virginia and chair-
man of the excutive committee of
the National Association of State
Universities and Land-Grant Col-
leges, said, "Our fundamental
concern is that this proposal
would shift the responsibility of
financing higher education to the
student. Education is essential for
society's own self-interest and
should be the responsibility of
society."
The joint statement issued by
the two major college associations
called the panel recommendation
"a Pandora's Box of ill-considered,
obsolete, and contradictory ideas
The statement continued, "It
is an ironic commentary on our
times that in this most affluent
nation in the world's history .. .
a panel should seriously take the
position that our society cannot
afford to continue to finance theI
education of its young people, and
must therefore ask the less af- ready rising spiral of student
fluent to sign a life-indenture charges," low and middle income
in return for the privilege of edu- students will be forced to borrow
cational opportunity." from it. Their statement expres-
The two associations warned sed fear that all of higher edu-j
that if the opportunity bank is cation will be dependent on the
successful "in pushing up the al- financial solvency of the bank
for its very continued existence.
Austerity Hits
'67 Bar Exams
Over five hundred prospective
lawyers, many of them University
graduates who took the Michigan
Bar Exam last August, will have
to wait five months before re-
ceiving word on whether they may
practice law in Michigan, attorney
Stanley Beattie told The Daily
yesterday.
Beattie, who heads the five man
Board of Law Examiners, explain-
ed that the problem is simply "too
many exams and too few exam-
iners."
Authors of the opportunity bank
proposal emphasized they were
not asking for a loan program as
such, but for "a device for en-
abling students to sell participa-
tion shares in their future in-
comes. They said their plan calls
for "contingent-repayment loans,
as opposed to the present pro-
grams, which they call "fixed-re-
payment loans."
Authors of the proposal also
emphasize it could increase the
viability of private institutions of
higher learning. They note that
if present trends continue, private
institutions will be enrolling no
more than. one-fifth of all stu-
dents by 1980, due to the ratio of
