New Directions in Student Loans: Intergenerational Implications.

Baum, Sandy

Journal of Student Financial Aid, v26 n2 p7-18 Spr 1996

Implications for future generations of college loan program changes are examined. The idea of who should pay for college is explored from the perspective of economic theory. It is concluded that new loan programs must be monitored carefully so they do not shift the burden of college payment from parents to students. (MSE)
