From the Wikipedia:  Higher Education Act of 1965

“…(Pub.L. 89–329) was legislation signed into United States law on November 8, 1965, as part of President Lyndon Johnson’s Great Society domestic agenda. Johnson chose Texas State University (then called “Southwest Texas State College”), his alma mater, as the signing site.  The law was intended “to strengthen the educational resources of our colleges and universities and to provide financial assistance for students in postsecondary and higher education”. It increased federal money given to universities, created scholarships, gave low-interest loans for students, and established a National Teachers Corps. The “financial assistance for students” is covered in Title IV of the HEA.

The Higher Education Act of 1965 was reauthorized in 1968, 1972, 1976, 1980, 1986, 1992, 1998, and 2008. Current authorization for the programs in the Higher Education Act expired at the end of 2013, but has been extended through 2015 while Congress prepares changes and amendments. Before each re-authorization, Congress amends additional programs, changes the language and policies of existing programs, or makes other changes….”
