Quoted: Higher education scholar Sara Goldrick-Rab at the University of Wisconsin-Madison has looked at ways to divvy up costs between the federal and state government to save students the headache of covering fees, books and supplies. In a recent research paper, she proposed having the federal government provide grants to schools to cover two years of tuition and states redirect higher ed funding to cover books and supplies. Living expenses, she said, could be covered through 15 hours a week of state or federal work study at a living wage.
