How sad that Rhode Island finally has an efficient agency and they want it to close. RIHEAA had a Board of Directors that, for 2 years did nothing but think of ways to destroy it. Instead of trying to work together and find other sources of revenue to keep this agency open, they were on a mission of destruction. This agency provides grants and educational services to the students of RI. The grants may not be much, but they at least cover books. The powers that be in the Rhode Island General Assembly have been after RIHEAA's money for years to give to the State Colleges and University. That is all fine and dandy, but guess what? we have needy Rhode Island students that are attending OTHER colleges. RIHEAA just became another pawn the the political game. The former board of directors should be ashamed of themselves for letting a great agency that was in fantastic financial support go down the drain. But , I guess it is to be expected. We ARE in Rhode Island, after all.
