 \n# BENNETT SUPPORTS REAGAN PLAN,BUT WANTS\"SHOT\"AT REWORKING STUDENT AID\n\nEducation Secretary William Bennett,who inherited hotly contested proposals tocut federal student aid,said Monday he supports them but wants his own\"shot\"at hammering out changes in the program。  \n\"No matter what the Congress and the president decide to do this year,I'mgoing to take a very close look at it[student aid]because I want my shot atthis,\"Bennett said in an interview at his Education Department office.  \nBennett,who took over at ED just days before President Reagan unvelled hisfiscal 1986 budget proposal to slash $1.5 billion from student aid,called the  \nplan a\"sound proposal.\"But his remarks indicatethat he believes the president's proposal could be1mproved,and that he wants to rework the plan ifit is unsuccessful on Capitol Hill.  \n-Interview—  \nReagan's plan would place a $4,000 cap on a student's total federal aid packageand a $32,500 family income limit for Guaranteed Student Loan(GSL)eligibility(HED,Feb.5)。  \n\"I think everybody can see that student aid programs have got problems,\"Bennett said.\"I would like my shot at thinking it through.\"He declined,however,to give further details on how he'd like to rework the programs.  \nAid Must Be CutBut the new secretary did not back away from the admin-istration's basic premise that the nearly $8 billion student aid program mustbe reduced.\"We have a budget problem and we have particular problems in thatprogram,which has skyrocketed in terms of its cost,\"Bennett said.  \n\"Nobody who is subsidized by government likes to see that subsidy diminished oreliminated,\"he said.The cuts would \"result in hardship for some and belt-tightening for others.\"  \nStudents,educators and politicians have attacked the $1.5 billion student aidcut,estimating that the plan would reduce the federal deficit next year byonly 1 percent.But Bennett Monday said \"a lot of smigeons can add up to asubstantial chunk …a billion here,a billion there in different programs andyou are talking about substantial reductions in the deficit.\"  \nBennett said he\"feels”for students who,under Reagan's budget,may not beable to go to expensive private schools like Williams College,which heattended.Bennett acknowledegd that he borrowed about $12,000 for his owncollege and graduate education,$2,000 of it federal.  \n\"I'm sorry that the student who wants to go to [the College of]Wooster(more)  \n# BENNETT WANTS \"SHOT\"AT REWORKING STUDENT AID(Cont.)\n\ndoesn't have the funds and therefore goes to Ohio State,\"Bennett said.\"ButI'm more sorry for the student who without our support can't go to college atall.We have limited dollars and it seems that is where we ought to put thoselimited dollars in providing the opportunity for everybody to go to college.\"  \nThe secretary said he doesn't remember what federal program his $2,000 in aidcame from.But,he said,\"Anyone who wants to [can]argue that I benefitedfrom a very generous system and now I am arguing for reductions in that system,[but]the system was a lot leaner at the time I was going to school.\"  \nAlthough Bennett Monday said again that student aid should be cut,he said hewishes he hadn't said that the cuts may require\"divestiture\"of studentluxuries like stereos and cars(HED,Feb.12).  \n\"If I had the gift of seeing the future,the gift of prophecy,then I wouldhave avoided that,\"Bennett said of the words that have trailed him since hetook over ED's helm earlier this month.\"I wouldn't have said it at all if Ihad to say it all over again.\"  \nTaken Out Of ContextAccording to Bennett,the comment was taken \"out ofcontext\"and\"makes me gound 1ike I'm harsh and mean and I'm diminishing theobvious consequences of the reductions.\"  \nThe former National Endowment for the Humanities chairman also defended theadministration's tuition tax credit and education voucher proposals to helpparents of elementary and secondary schoolers send their children to privateschools.  \nSome have said the provisions clash with the ","cbCaigIImcX6ZFqT","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaigIImcX6ZFqT","pdf",1794425,"English","#
