Harvard University Announcement
Recently,
Harvard University announced that from now on undergraduate students from
low-income families will pay no tuition. In making the announcement,
Harvard's president Lawrence H. Summers said, "When only ten percent of the
students in elite higher education come from families in the
lower half of the income distribution, we are not doing enough. We are not
doing enough in bringing elite higher education to the lower half of the
income distribution. "
If you know of a family earning less than $60,000 a year with an honor
student graduating from high school soon, Harvard University wants to pay
the tuition. The prestigious university recently announced that from now on
undergraduate students from low-income families can go to Harvard for free,
no tuition and no student loans!
