Education Department Approves Aid for Morris Brown
ATLANTA
Financially strapped Morris Brown College can breathe a sigh of relief — for now.
Federal education officials have approved $372,000 in financial aid that had been withheld from the 117-year-old historically Black college. It is the first time in this school year that the U.S. Department of Education has released financial aid funds to the private college in Atlanta, which is $23 million in debt (see Black Issues, Nov. 21).
