The Department has nothing to do with curriculum...it's just a money tree for Unions. Pell and Loans...somehow have to be put to rest. Let them go to the bank.

Do the Pell "grants", i.e., the money itself, go to the college??

$268 billion budget, which amounted to about 4% of federal outlays
But only 20 Billions we dolled out in grants

+++++++++++++++++++++++

So 140 billions were WASTED!!!

“...The Department has nothing to do with curriculum...” ??

It sort of does .... because it favors and sustains a commitment to the character of faculty who are hard wired to push the Liberal agenda

“”The most expensive responsibility of the department is to oversee financial aid to students pursuing higher education, which is done primarily via the Office of Federal Student Aid (FSA).””

Something we can do without. Years ago loans were made by private enterprise for college. Remember Maxine Waters (I think) said student loans should be handled by the government. It had already been turned over to the government from private bankers but she was a little late to the party. I don’t think she’s ever been up to speed on anything EXCEPT brainwashing the poor voters of her district.

I think Pell grants go direct to “Student”

[Fledermaus]

Mine did. They were called BEOG grants back then. Mine went straight to dorm cost.
