Letters to Loyola: A Modern GI Bill to Boost the Economy
November 18, 2021
Dear Loyola,
Congress is considering whether to greatly expand Pell grants. Making federal assistance possible for a wider group of families, and for amounts that keep up with the actual cost of college, would be an enormous help for the majority of our students. I hope you’ll pay close attention.
