As the nation enters its second week of a federal government shutdown, many students are beginning to wonder how it will affect their lives. Some students say they've noticed the shutdown when they attempt to research topics online.  Many government-run sites are offline during the shutdown.  According to the U-S Education Department' shutdown contingency plan, a shutdown lasting any longer than one week could severely restrict the cash flow to universities. However, it should NOT affect student financial aid. Several thousand federal employees have been furloughed during the shutdown.
