Presidential election may affect policies on minority enrollment: "'The [U.S. Department of Education] issued a statement last year saying that minority scholarships, recruitment and academic enrichment programs were, in most cases, no longer allowed,' he said.
Bush's policy concerning higher education for minorities instead focuses only on economical issues.
Wilbert Bryant, the Education Department's deputy assistant secretary of post-secondary education, said Bush plans on increasing Pell Grant funding, approving more money for financial aid and creating education savings accounts."
