Panelears student aid concerns

By JACKIE YOUNG
Students who fear federal cuts in
student aid might force them to leave
the University testified before
representatives from Washington in
late April at hearings sponsored by the
Michigan Student Assembly.
Fewer than 10 students testified to a
four-member panel, which included
Ron Jursa from the Department of
Education and Janice Fine, president
of the United States Student
Association.

THE STUDENTS' testimony will be
used in a report to the federal gover-
nment to evaluate student aid
programs, Fine said. The results from
the report will be used by the Depar-
tment of Education this summer to
restructure federal financial aid
programs.
Despite the small number of students
at the hearings, those who testified
criticized the federal government for
frequent changes in eligibility
requirements.

They also said that proposals to cut
funding for student aid in the past two
years has made it difficult to rely on
federal money.
"(FINANCIAL AID) is effecting all
aspects of a student's life," said Sharon
Jordan, a student advisor in the
University's financial aid office.
Students spent time worrying if money
will be available, which interferes with
studying, she said.
Jursa said students shouldn't "give

up without a fight," and look for alter-
natives, such as private loans or
scholarships, to replace federal funds.
University students who receive
financial aid depend heavily on federal
funds, said Harvey Grotrian, the
University's financial aid director.
Cuts in federal funding could force
many students to halt their education
and eventually make it impossible for
students from low and middle income
families to come to the University,
Grotrian said.
