As proposed by the administration, graduate students would no longer be eligible for the guaranteed student loans at 9% interest. They would, however, be permitted to apply for auxiliary loans at 14% interest. According to Newton Cattell of AAU, a major problem in opposing the exclu­ sion of graduate students from this program is that the entire guaranteed loan program may be abandoned. Many Congressmen, even those who are supportive of higher education issues, want to reduce costs and may see the only way t o do this in scrapping the loan program. Mr. Cattell cautions against too early a compromise on the guaranteed student loans and suggests that the higher education community attempt to preserve the viability of the entire guaranteed student loan program, arguing that loans to graduate students are an essential part of the program. There are three places where a political compromise may be harmful to the cause of restoring graduate student loans. The first is the expiration of the Continuing Resolution for FY 1982 (March 31). At that time, the administration may propose further FY 1982 budget cuts that may reduce the guar­ anteed student loan programs. A second danger point is in the debate on the debt ceiling.
