    "content": "Finally, there is the recommendation that has been made by the Leader of the Majority Party. I do not normally agree with the Leader of the Majority Party on many things in this House but, on this particular matter, I want to agree with him. Many students live under unbearable stress. The Higher Education Loans Board (HELB) releases money in a manner that is not reliable. All of us in this House can attest to this because, at the end of the day, the stress and burden creeps back to us. Therefore, this House, through the Departmental Committee on Education, Science and Technology, may want to consider an option that will enable our young people to have the financial capacity to take care of themselves while in college. That might necessitate the need to bring back the “boom” or a special stipend that should be available to every university student, both in public and private universities, to take care of their basic needs. I support this Petition. Thank you, Hon. Speaker."
