Education Message Given
WASHINGTON
(WCNS)-ln
his second annual message on
higlier education to Congress,
President Nixon last v/eek moved
to " e q u a l i z e individual opport u n i t i e s " for attending college,
a n c to put the Federal government's power behind the forces
of innovation and reform in curricula.
Similar proposals last year
failed to pass either house of
C o n g r e s s , but have been reintroduced because " e x i s t i n g legislative wuthority for the b a s i c
Federal higher education programs expires at the end of the
current fiscal y e a r , " President
Nixon s a i d .
B a s i c to the proposal for
equalizing
individual
opportunities is the concept of lifting
financial barriers.
At present Nixon told Co.ig r e s s , " a young person whose
family ea BS more than $15,00 a
y e ^ i i s almost five times more
likely to attend college than a
young person whose family e a m s
l e s s than $ 3 , 0 0 0 . "
To alter this inequity, the
President proposed the e s t a b lishment of a National Student
Loan Association (NSLA). A
private. Federally chartered corporation, NSLA would make a c c e s s to grants and subsidized
loans much easier than at pres e n t . Colleges would be able to
" s e l l " a student's promisory
note to NSLA, tfius enabling
thern to provide more loans.
The
President
estimated
that NSLA in its first year might
buy up to $2 billion worth of
loans from banks and u n i v e r s i t i e s .
For those students eligible
for direct grants from Ihe Federal
government'(i.e. those from families with less than a $10.00-ayear income), Nixon called for
an upper grant of $1,000
per
year, or $1,400 in a combination
of grwnts, work/study money,
ahd subsidized l o a n s .
Beyond this $1,400 am-iunt
a student could qualify for an
additional $1,500 in a " s u b sidized cost of education l o a n , "
if he attends a school with an
average annual cost of more^than
$1,400 and if he m e e t s the eligibility criteriz for subsidized
aid.

said, would benefit approximately
one million more students than
are currently receiving iad. " I t
would as.sure that Federal funds
go first, and in the largest
amounts, to the neediest stud e n t s , in order to place them on
an equal footing with stu ' m t s
from
higher-income
families .
" ' I t would mean that (high
school s t u d e n t ' s ) choice of a
college would be based on their
educational goals rather than
upon their families
financial
circumstances."
The other major piece d
legislation a s k e d for in the
higher education message would
help revamp college curricula.
Working
through a
National
Foundation for Higher Education, educators and students
alike could obtain help in making colleges more responsive
to individual n e e d s .
The Foundation, modeled
after the National Science Foundation and the National Ins t i t u t e s of Health, would e n courage " a review of the overall
needs of the American people
for post-secondary e d u c a t i o n . "
Its first year's operating budget would he $100 million.
The special problems encountered by Black colleges
and universitiee would also be
helped by the Foundation for
Higher Education, Nixon s a i d .
Already included in the 1972
budget, however are additional
funds for Black colleges to be
administered by the U.S. Office
of Education, the National S c i ence Foundation and the Department of Agriculture.

Exchange Program Studied With England
"It will be an a d v e n t u r e , "
said Kenneth Baird, principal of
Nottingham College in a recent
interview speaking of the program concerning sludent teaching in England.
The program, which begins
in September, 1971, is open to
all secondary and elementary
students
who
ure
eligible.
Approximately fifteen to twenty
students from LHS will go to
England in exchange for the
same number of English students.
.A faculty member will accompany
each group.
For the first twelve weeks
in England students will be on a
tutorial program. They will work
under four t u t o r s in the major
ar ea of study on which they

weeks students will be out in t h e
schools essentially t o discover

feels that Lock Haven represents the r e a l A m e n t a , t h e
small town. He prefers the
small town as the ideal place
for learning about America as
opposed to the large city oecause t h e cosmopolitan ways of
the city are too impersonal. He
