Subject: Harvard offers free tuition


Harvard University has announced that from now on undergraduate students 
from low-income families will pay no tuition. In making the announcement, 
Harvard's president Lawrence H. Summers said, "When only 10 percent of the students 
in Elite higher education come from families in lower half of the income 
distribution, we are not doing enough. We are not doing enough in bringing elite 
higher education to the lower half of the income distribution." If you know 
of a family earning less than $60,000 a year with an honor student graduating 
from high school soon, Harvard University wants to pay the tuition. The 
prestigious university recently announced that from now on undergraduate students 
from low-income families can go to Harvard for free ... no tuition and no 
student loans!
