welch: first you of all i wanted to know -- mr. courtney: my friend from tennessee cited the vanderbilt report. if you drill down a little bit in terms of the numbers that they used in terms of the $146 million in terms of added cost, most of those regs they identified were actually -- had to do with the research component of the universities and colleges. for things on human subjects, which i think all of us would probably agree that's not a bad idea. that number, which, again, there is a report, i don't dispute that. the number is actually more complicated than i think. some of the reporting on it. so i checked this morning, the u.s. treasury is selling 10-year notes for 2.6%. sort of use it as a benchmark when we talk about the stafford student loan program because those are 10-year term notes that the government offers. again, even today we're still getting back around 4% to 5% in terms of some students. so that differential, that delta between what the government is paying when it borrows versus what students are paying when t
