No It Doesn't.

Hoekstra, Pete

Trusteeship, v5 n2 p13,15,17 Mar-Apr 1997

The Federal Direct Student Loan Program is not an improvement over the Federal Family Education Loan Program and is doomed to fail as did a similar large-scale federal program 33 years ago. The program will not save money; the government is ill-equipped to manage it; it has been pushed past its demand; and schools do not want the change. (MSE)
