Bipartisan Bill Provides Tuition Relief For UWP Students Rebecca Stratman Special to the Ranger News Surprisingly, despite the $40 million Starr investigation, the country has money to spare for education. Within the next few years, college stu- dents will receive a break on their tuition costs, thanks to a new bipatisan bill. The Higher Education Amendments of 1998 would increase the maximum allowance for Pell Grants to $3, I00 per year by the 1999-2000 school year. The bill was passed by both the Senate and the House of Representatives last Monday. It now goes to the president for his review. This measure will provide major relief for college student's pocketbooks across the country. Gradually, the maximum grant allowance would increase to $5,800 in the 2003-2004 school year. "If I were allowed more money in grants, I wouldn't have to borrow as much money. I might not have to take out loans at all," slates University of Wisconsin-Parks ide student Katie Beaumier. The new bill also will provide relief for students who need to take out loans. Student loan interest rates would drop from 8.25% to about 7.5%. This drop in rates has been effective since July, the bill has simply made them offical, Students at UW-Parkside can expect to reap the benefits of this bill by the 1999-2000 school tenn. nWe did increase Pell Grant recipients this past year. But, it seems students are unwilling to apply because they believe they won't receive any money. Every little bit helps, right?" states Assistant Director of Financial Aid, William Henderson. The actual amount awarded for Pell Grants increase only $IOO;but this may make a difference for those currently receive the maxi- mum allowance.
