LOCAL/STATE The Michigan Daily - Tuesday, October 15, 1996 -- 5 fDUCATION tinued from Page 1 During Campaign '96, officals from both parties have been traveling the country and targeting younger voters, promising that their party has the better plan for higher education. The Rev. Jesse Jackson, a one-time Democratic candidate for president who recently stumped in Michigan, is orking to increase the number of jounger voters. Jackson spoke out strongly about the need for increased student aid. He said ,4overnment funding of education is *Very necessary. "It's a good subsidy; it 'bears good fruit;' he said. Democrats believe the current sys- tem is not sufficient, Jackson said. He said the Democratic party will offer more hope to students. "Many qualifiable youth are denied ,portunity for lack of aid," Jackson said. "Therefore, .there must be much more investment in O®ppo Universities."' Hills said Dole scholars also wants to actuall make better edu cational opportu-. to help n aties available ore Americans. people He said Dole really under- cities." stands the need for federal edu- cational support, Director of because Dole forf benefitted from fr___ the GI Bill him- self. "(What Dole would) like to see is at GI Bill extended down below the ollege level," Hills said. Clinton, Dole and their individual supporters have outlined their respec- tive plans for higher education to Michigan voters during the past month. Hills said Dole's proposed "opportu- nity scholarships" are a major part of Dole's concrete plan to improve educa- tion. The scholarships would provide iovernment vouchers for education ranging from kindergarten through col- lege. Republicans say the opportunity scholarships will help significantly more students than the current system does. "Opportunity scholarships actually are going to help more people in the inner cities," Hills said. "It's not for the rich, white Republicans living in the Jsburbs." Dole said his proposed 15-percent across-the-board tax cut will help peo- pie save for college and boost the econ- omy. Dodd cited a number of "pro- active, positive things" the Clinton administration has done for higher education as reasons to vote for Democrats. COURT Continued from Page 1 said.

Sri .N AmeriCorps is one of those things, Dodd said. The program, created by Clinton, involvespstudents providing community service in this country like Peace Corps volunteers do abroad. In return, students receive money toward payment of their college loans. Dodd said 25,000 college students per year in the last two-and-a-half years have joined AmeriCorps. They are receiving, on average, $4,720 for col- lege as a result of that experience. The Direct Lending program is another Clinton effort for higher educa- tion, Dodd said. He said Democrats pushed for the elimination of banks in the lending program, thus allowing schools to provide direct lending. There are about 1,750 colleges participating in the direct program. Dodd said Republicans, including Dole, were vehemently opposed to the implementation of the program. Clinton's "hope scholarships" will help even more students, Dodd .i/fsaid.

J Ethe 12th grade would be tuition-free at the community college levelDodd said. Democrats are also proposing a $10,000 per-year tax deduction to help students and families defer the cost of higher education. Dodd said Dole will not support such programs or tax cuts. "The Republicans are trying to destroy AmeriCorps, they are trying to cut back and destroy the Direct Lending Program, and we are not see- ing much support for tax deductions and higher education needs," Dodd said. Engler said Republicans have a strong education record of their own. "I can point to a record where we have dramatically increased higher educa- tion funding," he said. He cited his own increase in funding to Michigan universities as one demon- stration of Republican commitment to higher education. Engler said Republicans have made it easier for students to gain university credit before actually getting to college. He said his party proposes an apprentice tax credit - a credit for trade schools. Republicans are stronger on making sure students coming directly out of college are better positioned in the job market, Engler said. STUDY SYRACUSE ABROAD IN HONG KONG STUDY-TRAVEL IN CHINA BUSINESS & LIBERAL ARTS COURSES GENEROUS GRANTS & SCHOLARSHIPS STUDY IN ENGLISH LANSING (AP) - A woman who underwent a late-term abortion after learning her fetus had no chance of sur- viving is the focus of an advertising campaign announced yesterday in Lansing by abortion rights groups. The ad, sponsored by the Pro-Choice Public Education Project, is part of a $250,000 advertising campaign in seven regions across the country, including Lansing. Marilyn Hysen, Lansing project leader, said the project cannot hope to match spending by anti-abortion groups but will try to counter their emotional pitch with facts about abor- tion. "All you've seen is the images that they've put out, which have been hor- rendous," she said, referring to ads con- demning late-term abortions. One of the pro-choice group's 30- second television ads features a California woman, Claudia Ades, and her husband, Richard. Mrs. Ades underwent a late-term abortion of the type Congress recently sought to restrict. She said her fetus had a fatal chromosomal disorder called trisomy- 13. "My health and my ability to have another child were in danger,"she says in the ad. Mrs. Ades also says millions of peo- ple worry about having healthy babies and the dangers of problem pregnan- cies. She urges viewers, "Don't let them take away your doctor's ability to give you the care you need." The second ad features a young woman and a young man jogging and discussing Congress' efforts to limit abortion and cut funding for family planning.
