Radical reform or incremental change?: Student loan policy alternatives for the federal government

This book examines the federal student loan program and asks whether it will serve the country's needs into the future. Is the loan program the best vehicle for advancing national policy objectives of equal opportunity and freedom of choice in higher education? Can the existing program be modified to remedy problems, or is a radical restructuring necessary? Expert analysts and education leaders investigate the need for and feasibility of change in the current scheme of federally subsidized and guaranteed student loans.
