Another look at Obama's student loan proposal. While the story highlighted benefits and detriments to getting rid of FFELP, I noticed that the writer Aldo Svaldi only quotes those who oppose cutting the program. This article would benefit from a deeper analysis—for example, Svaldi says that "another concern is whether the U.S. Dept. of Education can duplicate the local outreach that lenders provide, especially in rural states." What local outreach? And why is there more in rural states? Why wouldn't the U.S. Dept. of Education be able to duplicate that? I found myself with more questions than answers when I reached the end.
