WSU parents and students have mixed feelings about President Joe Biden’s proposed student loan forgiveness plan. Biden’s plan includes canceling $10,000 in direct federal student loans. The president rejected Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and Senator Elizabeth Warren’s proposal to forgive $50,000 in student loans, according to an article published by ABC News. WSU parent Mari Bedsaul said she does not believe in loan forgiveness. “If you sign on to go to a university and accept that cost, then you ultimately should be responsible for paying that money back,” Bedsaul said. WSU parent Juli LeMaster worked to pay for her college education. LeMaster said she expects her children to figure out how to pay off their loans themselves after graduation.
