Implementing Bell’s Blueprint recommendation No. 8 to increase College Opportunity Fund stipends and need-based financial aid

Increasing the stipend and holding down tuition should be a top priority. We should increase the stipend to at least $3,000 per full-time student in 2007, and higher if possible. And we should make sure COF stipends keep pace with inflation after that. Colorado should also double need-based financial aid and work-study opportunities.
