Kahlenberg The 1965 Higher Education Act, which is slated to be reauthorized later this year, has sought to ensure that no student would be denied a college education because of his or her financial condition. President Lyndon B. Johnson set out the ambitious goal that "a high school student anywhere in this great land of ours can apply to any college or any university in any of the fifty states and not be turned away because his family is poor." Almost 40 years later, America has failed to make good on that promise of equal opportunity. http://movingideas.c.topica.com/maab4Jzaa5qoyb44sjdb/ _________________________________________________ -Mary Ann Corley NIFL-Povracelit List Moderator
