Description:

Mrs. John A. McCurtain contacted Senator Fred R. Harris for assistance in securing a B.I.A. grant for her son, John, to attend college. The Bureau of Indian Affairs informed Senator Harris that the Higher Education Program is based on financial need and that assistance is provided based on the student's unmet financial need. They mentioned that John's financial need is being reevaluated for possible assistance. Senator Harris assured Mrs. McCurtain that he would continue to follow up on her request.
