"To find out how students are paying for college amid the economic recession, NPR's Steve Inskeep spoke with Tally Hart. She's the former head of financial aid at Ohio State University, where she now runs an outreach program for lower income students," NPR reports. "When asked about recent changes in federal grants and loans, Hart says, 'The No. 1 question that students always ask is, 'Will there be money for me to go to college?' The important part of the stimulus package is that it stabilizes and increases Pell Grants for these students, so we know it addresses the No. 1 concern about going on to college.'"
