Why not terminate >all grants and funding to private/parochial colleges and universities? Grants to colleges and universities are idealy to pay for a service rendered to the grant giver. If the U.S. goverment wants to build a better bomb, or sees that artificial heart research can benefit the public, they give the college a grant. While funding for bussing provides such a service, extending the funding to private schools makes little sense. Bus service to public schools already exists. Routes are usually placed convieniently for students and schools. Special bussing to private schools places an extra burden on the public by creating more, probably rundundant, and possibly unnecessarilily long routes. In any case, not the same as "services" provided for in exchange for grants. -- Rob Vetter (503) 629-1044 [ihnp4, ucbvax, decvax, uw-beaver]!tektronix!dadla!rob "Waste is a terrible thing to mind" - NRC (Well, they COULD have said it)
