BYU doesn’t accept federal money.

FROM THE DESERET NEWS

"BYU indirectly receives millions of dollars in federal funding each year in the form of Pell Grants and student loans given to students. It also is the direct beneficiary of research grants, including $1.2 million from the Department of Education for BYU's new Center for the Study of Europe, which opened in September."

I stand corrected. It appears that research grants for individuals doing research and Pell grants and student loans to students constitute accepting federal money. Applying that same logic, I guess my local grocery store is on the federal dole because it accepts federal money via food stamp payments by customers.
