PAGEEIGHT THE MICHIGAN DAILY THURSDAY, SEP 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 IMPORTED SWEATERS from MEXICO and ICELAND BULKY KNITS CARDIGANS SLIP OVERS THE MEDINA SHOP 402 MAYNARD ST. 663-4540 .. ....
