Welcome to Rocky Watch: A Series of Public Policy Discussions! Each week we broadcast a live event with a public policy expert. This is the Perkins Bass Distinguished Lecture.
March 3rd, 2021
Speaker:
Mark W. Huddleston
President Emeritus
University of New Hampshire
Host:
Charles Wheelan ’88
Senior Lecturer and Policy Fellow
Nelson A. Rockefeller Center for Public Policy and the Social Sciences
Dartmouth College
Lecture Info:
Student loan debt in the United States now exceeds $1.6 trillion dollars, having nearly doubled over the last ten years. Some maintain that this debt burden is so onerous that young Americans have been forced to delay starting families and to forgo buying their own homes. Although the federal government has declared a temporary moratorium on debt repayment in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic, many are pressing for more permanent relief, including, in some quarters, wholesale debt forgiveness. This presentation examines the various dimensions of the student debt issue. Who exactly has compiled what debt? Where do the burdens press most heavily? What has contributed to the sharp rise in borrowing? What public policy options are available and appropriate?
The Rockefeller Center’s mission is to inspire and energize students to become effective leaders in their communities and to cherish and participate in democracy on the state, national, and international stages throughout their lifetime.
