Or Georgetown--whether a religious affiliated school or private education; that these should be for private education only. I have never heard a Member of the Senate say that. To my judgment, it has never happened. The reason is, it would be illogical, it would be foolish. And so it would here. This is being done on the same basis. This is available for public school students and private school students with people's own money. So I think there is a philosophical consistency with the college program.
