AAMC Submits Comments on
HEA Reauthorization
May 30, 2003 - The AAMC May 23 sent a letter
to the Chairman and Ranking Member of the Senate Health, Education,
Labor, and Pensions Committee outlining the Association's
recommendations related to the reauthorization of the Higher
Education Act. Similar to letters sent previously to the House
Education and the Workforce Committee and the Department of
Education, the May 23 letter focuses primarily on the issues
of increasing Stafford loan limits and extending the economic
hardship deferment. The AAMC has also endorsed the broader
recommendations put forward by the American Council on Education
(ACE).
