Professor Morton has Published an OpEd in the LA Times

Congratulations to Professor Morton, who has published the following OpEd piece in the LA Times: 

Opinion: The college tuition system is broken. FAFSA headaches are the latest proof

 "Thanks to delays in the Free Application for Federal Student Aid process, millions of potential college students and their families will have to wait longer than usual to learn what their financial aid packages will look like.

Filling out the FAFSA is how potential college students prove their financial eligibility for aid that will help them cover tuition — Pell Grants, federal work-study, state-based financial aid and federal loans. The bureaucratic, confusing and often frustrating process adds to the anxiety many students and families feel in figuring out how to pay for college."
