The informal description: We're a bunch of students from across North Texas colleges trying to make a difference - trying to give other students the same opportunities we had to attend a community college, a university, or a technical institute.
In the end - our goal is to make sure that what happened during the 2011 legislative session doesn't happen again in 2013. It's pretty simple: in 2011, the legislature cut financial aid by over 15%, and cut university funding by billions. In turn, universities and community colleges struggled to manage the shortfall - and tens of thousands of Texan students couldn't go to college because they didn't have enough money. Not a good situation.
But in 2013 - we plan on doing our best to make sure students get the best deal possible.
