 \n             Friday,February 7,1986  \n# OPENING SALVOES FIRED IN 1987 EDUCATION BUDGET BATTLE\n\nPolite talk about the Reagan administration's proposed cuts in higher educationvanished rapidly Wednesday,as Education Department officials and members ofthe higher education community engaged in an impromptu debate on the streetoutside ED offices in Washington,D.C.  \nEducation Undersecretary Gary Bauer crashed a sidewalk news conference calledby the officials to rall about the just-released budget proposal.Bauer toldthe officials that the ED budget,which would cut student aid funding by  \n$1.7 billion,should be viewed in the context of overall spending for colleges.  \n# BUDGET\n\nStates and individuals spend far more on higher educa-’87tion than the federal government,Bauer said,and theproposed ED cuts would have a negligible effect on ac-cess to a college education.Moreover,he said,thetime had come to reduce the federal deficit.  \n\"These gentlemen are only focusing on the federal budget,\"Bauer told report-ers.\"I think it's a narrow picture.\"  \nBut that picture is a clear one,according to the association presidents,whosaid the weight of the administration's budget-balancing is being thrust on thebacks of the poor and middle class.Instead,they urged President Reagan toconsider cutting defense spending and raising taxes.\"I say,put it all on thetable,\"American Council on Education(ACE)President Robert Atwell said.  \nACE said cuts in ED's budget would cause the collapseGSLCO1apse een           AUL saluuL8           8 DuugeLw       Cau   C   Cof the Guaranteed Student Loan(GSL)program and would eliminate more than800,000 of today's 3 million Pell Grant reciplents from the program.  \nEducation Secretary William Bennett unveiled the administration's sweepingplans for higher education in a briefing prior to the association presidents'news conference.Bennett said the cuts in student aid would still allow “about40 percent of all undergraduate college students\"to receive federal assis-tance,as opposed to the current level of about 50 percent.  \nThe administration has proposed cutting GSL funding from $3.26 billion to  \n$2.33 billion in fiscal 1987.The cuts would be made by reducing incentives tolenders,raising the interest rates and tightening eligibility through the useof a new,across-the-board need test(HED,Feb。6)。  \nThe Pell Grant program would be slashed from $3.4 billion to $3.25 billion un-der the proposai,through tightened eligibility.The National Direct Student(more)  \n6  \n# OPENING

based onthe former student's income,all with market-rate interest.  \nFinally,the administration has proposed merging the College Work/Study programand the Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant program,calling for vastlyreduced federal funding and greater matching requirements from the states.Theplan would cut off all funding for the State Student Incentive Grant Program。  \nDespite the cuts,Bennett said,\"every student who wants to go to college …will be able to do so.\"  \nWon't Miss The TrainMany of the proposals would require legislativechanges through the reauthorization of the Higher Education Act.Although theHouse already has passed its reauthorization bill and the Senate is well on theway to passing its plan,Bennett is confident ED's proposals will be heeded.  \n\"We don't think we'11 miss that train,\"he said.\"We've heard it's been at thestation.\"  \nUnlike last year's administration budget proposal,which attempted to place a$30,000 family income cap on eligibility for federal student aid,administra-tion officials said the new plan simply tightens eligibility through its over-all need test,which wil1 scrutinize the family's adjusted gross
