The Legislature hereby finds that the academy provides full-time programs that limit opportunity for student employment. For that reason, it is difficult for students attending the academy to contribute to the cost of their education through employment while attending. This limits the opportunity for students who have little or no financial ability to contribute to the payment of their cost of education. For these reasons, the trustees shall develop and adopt a policy that provides opportunities for financial assistance for students to attend the academy and that provides for the active recruitment of students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds and underrepresented groups. In order to implement this policy, the trustees may make full use of any and all state and federal funds available and may receive private contributions, including those from the maritime industry, for this purpose.
