/ V eWS IV Daily Collegian • November 4, iwi ' Shelton: Board candidate seeks public trust in schools Continued from page 1 "I think the board needs the perspective of an individual like myself," Shelton said. He said currently there are no African American community members sitting on the board. "The board needs that diver¬ sity, someone who knows the community and can articulate and bring those concerns to the board." Shelton brings extensive past experience as both an administra¬ tor and community member. He was appointed commis¬ sioner of the Fresno County Delin¬ quency Prevention Commission for two four-year terms. He has served in the Fresno County Per¬ sonnel Department, the State Com¬ munity College District Office and the CSUF Elementary Partnership Program. "1 bring to the board the ability to work in harmony and coopera¬ tion with all people, it's very im¬ portant to develop a positive rela¬ tionship to carry out plans and policy," Shelton said. Students above all Shelton advocates getting down to the student level; student con¬ cerns and problems are high on his agenda for the coming year. He said he will be make himself available to students by visiting the various d istrict schools. Healso has plans to initiate a Youth Com¬ mittee on Education where stu¬ dents will have the opportunity to voice their opinions and feelings — the likes and dislikes of the educational system, "then we can go about solving some of these problems. "Students haven't had the opportunity to voice what they see as a problem," Shelton said. Communication, he said, is the key to a smooth operation. Another battle Shelton wants to win, is the fight to keep children and teenagers in school. "Education directs individual lives — the more education the more prosperity they can look forward to in the future," Shelton said. He wants to get to the core of what drives students from the system. Leadership by example "You must show by example and get down to the student level and make them a part of the sys¬ tem. "We need to have students start thinking about their future and start thinking about tomorrow instead of living from day to day," Shelton said. Shelton was instrumental in the creation of many sistership pro¬ grams between CSUF and area elementary , middle and high schools. One program, the Elementary Partnership Program, established in 1988, brings students on cam¬ pus for four weeks in the summer when they are taught by certifi¬ cated teachers. "Most of these students ha ven^t visited the university or sat in a classroom at the university or been exposed to the things we take for granted," Shelton said. Reaching high goals Shelton has set high goals and believes they can be reached. But if there was one thing Shel¬ ton could change about the educa¬ tional system, it's the amount of money directed there. Smaller classrooms, increased teachers' salaries and bettgr equip¬ ment are needed districtwide, he Cogley: Two-year colleges need more funds Continued from page 1 Other than encouraging the government to spend more on community college education, Cogley also would make sure fees are kept reasonable. "Expenses add up when you have to pay for books, child care and lab expenses," she said. "Fifty or 60 dollars hits a low income student very hard." In addition to funding, Cogley said she also would promote a close relationship between higher edu¬ cation and private industry. "Businesses complain students graduating from colleges are not prepared enough," Cogley said. By working with the commu¬ nity college system, businesses could have some influence in pre¬ paring course curriculums and can provide students with scholarships to encourage them to pursue a par¬ ticular field, she said. Also, "students will feel a tighter bond to give something Back to the community," she said. Other than private industry, Cogley would like to begin an ar¬ ticulation program between com¬ munity colleges and the UC and CSU schools. Through such an agreement, community college credits would be coordinated with four-year courses so credits would not be lost when a student transfers, Cogley said. Also, Cogley would like to be¬ gin a program where high school students would work closely with counselors in order to plan a cur¬ riculum that would better prepare them for higher education. In addition to student services, Cogley also recognizes the needs' of the faculty. Faculty treatment and the faculty's wages and contracts would be considered, she said. As a-State Center Community College Trustee, Cogley said she plans to represent the entire com¬ munity college population. That population includes women, students over the age of 25 and minorities, she said. Practices currently being held Tues. & Thurs. evenings 7:30 - 9:00pm, Sun 4-6pm Are you bored?
