Abstract

On March 28, Governor George W. Bush of Texas made a pilgrimage to Sallie Mae’s imposing Reston home. No, Sallie Mae isn’t a rich widow being courted for campaign contributions. She’s SLM Holding Corporation, and SLM is short for student loan marketing. GWB wanted to talk to citizens about student literacy, and, at the suggestion of Congressman Tom Davis who represents most of Reston, chose Sallie Mae’s rostrum from which to address the nation.
