This article explains a plan that has been written in a white paper to elleviate the debt on low income students. The questions was posed: Is college a right or a privilege? Some people argue that it is not the responsibility of the university or federal goverment to ensure that low-income students come out of college debt free. Literature on financial literacy tells us that finances are the primary cause of students not finishing their degrees. Is it time that college administrators, financial aid counselors, etc. take a hands-on active approach in student finances and/or debt? Or it not their responsibility?
