	Groups gird to battle Congress' proposed student aid cuts
		The U.S. Student Association and congressional Democrats contend the cuts would force the average student borrower to pay as much as $5,800 extra in loan repayment over the course of a college education.
		Student groups advocated for those cuts for years, but they had hoped the savings would be given back to students to keep loan costs down.
		One point of contention is the House version's proposed change in the student loan consolidation program, which allows students to roll together various loans taken out over the course of their education.
