On Wednesday, October 15, 2014, Senator Mikulski convened a Western Maryland College Affordability Summit at Allegany College of Maryland. The Summit, part of her statewide College Affordability Tour, focused on the many challenges Maryland students and families face in paying for higher education as well as the impact on jobs and communities. As the cost of higher education continues to rise at unprecedented rates and U.S. student loan debt balloons to roughly $1 trillion – a sum larger than Americans’ total collective credit card debt – Senator Mikulski is committed to finding new ways to make college a more attainable prospect for a greater number of Maryland students.
