Someone needs to do something about this and I'm HIGHLY surprised that organizations didn't step in. While I know no one will actually pay $349/mn its more the principle that with the rising cost of education, people seem to forget about the graduate students and focus on the college students. Just pisses me off because many residents have a hard enough time making ends meet until they can moonlight, if they are even allowed/have enough time to.
I think its time to contact our local representatives, the sad part is this bill already passed. A resolution to extend the hardship was submitted but obviously nothing came from it (just like how nothing changed for graduate interest rates either).
