058 What’s Brewing, CCCSFAAA? 2021-01-26 - Newsy News

We started off with the best intention to get to a lot of news stories, but Dennis got sidetracked talking about the recent Regions VII & VIII meeting last week and the ever-declining state funding ("BFAP" money) to support Financial Aid Offices at the community colleges.  Here's the actual news we covered:

• FSA Electronic Announcement regarding their 2021-2022 FAFSA campaign.
• FSA Electronic Announcement regarding the extended timeframe for adding Coronavirus Indicators for 2020-2021 Title IV disbursements.
• FSA Dear Colleague Letter (GEN 21-01) regarding the release of the 2021-2022 Pell Grant payment and disbursement schedules.
• PBS news item on the effects of COVID on enrollment at community colleges.

Dana's "I Dare You To Watch" selection is The White Tiger on Netflix.  Dennis's "I Dare You To Read" selection is The University We Need by Warren Treadgold.
