Flight instructions for your
cool Fall '9 3 semester
GEORGE
CONSTANTINOPOULOS
Managing Editor
Welcome aboard California State University,
Fresno. Your destination is a degree within a decade,
dependent upon whether there's cash in the mainte¬
nance fund to keep this baby up. Whoops...heh,
ahem...never mind that thing that just fell off (San
Ramon).
Please listen carefully to Ihe following informs
tion and instructions to make your trip safe and
enjoyable.
Your captain is Dr. John Welty. Please do not
interrupt his flight controls with reams of petitions
and flyers. No effigy burning in the cockpit at all
limes.
Your first officer is Dr. Alex Gonzalez. Same goes
for him.
The flight engineer is the California legislature.
The less you live a decent life in the state the more
cash they'll have to maybe buy the campus a goldfish
pond.
Your navigator is your faculty advisor. Use this
instrumental person at least twice each semester. The
advisor can help get you through school quickly and
into a productive life.
No paramilitary weapons (M-16s, M-60s, Patriot
missiles, Inter-Continental Ballistic Missiles) in Peace
and Conflict studies classes.
Horticulture is not a place to grow fungi on your
socks  Clean between toes often. No Madame
Trussaud's in your ears please.
Please return co-eds to their full, upright posi¬
tions.
In case of emergency, please exit through emer¬
gency evacuative means (Lots A, B, C, etc.).
The free speech area is meant for just that. Burn
a flag (United States, California, Carl's Jr.), the U.S..
Constitution (Washington and the Supreme Court do
(his daily), or your underwear. Walk naked to Ihe Pit
and redefine it's name.
Attend classes. This helps keep administrative
folks from dropping classes because of low atten¬
dance.
Support most clubs that, have bake sales and
barbecues on campus. They heed cash and (he food is
mostly good.
Read this paper because you subscribe io it with
monies allocated by the Associated Students, Incorpo¬
rated.
Look forward to good work in The Daily Collegian,
and the opinion pieces inside will excite you.
Have a safe and enjoyable semester al Fresno
State, and use the Counseling Center for any emo¬
tional, personal, financial or scholastic problems. It's
okay to seek help. That is also ihe role of a student
and a good passenger on CSUF Airlines. .

Some more for your
back to school cool
DAVBD MIRHADI
News Editor
As we begin a new semester, 1 think
it is the perfect time to make out a wish
list for the entire school year.
The first wish that I hope for is that
we will not have to endure yet another
round of fee increases. In order to
accomplish this, I think that our first
priority is to lobby the people who
control our pocketbooks-the California
state legislature, and governor "No Re-
Pete" Wilson. Preferably, to vote him
oul of office in November of next year.
I wish for a more active campus.
So many people say that this campus is
a commuter campus and that no one has
any time to get involved in campus
related activities and organizations. To
those so-called commuters: Get a belter
excuse for not becoming active, and
make some time to make this campus
more than a place to spend lime in
class.
I wish for effective leadership in
the Associated Students.  Last year was
a true "monkey show," as presidential
candidate Douglas Williams so aptl>
stated last year. It's time to put up or
shut up, and those duties rest in the
very capable hands of Stacey Green.
I wish for patience from our univer¬
sity president, John Welty. We can see
the light at the end of the tunnel, and
Welty can make our journey an easier
one by continuing outreach into the
university. Connecting with the stu¬
dents is ihe most important duty thai
you have, no matter what's in your
official job description.
I wish that the Fresno State athletic
program would get more recognition.
Yes, we all know about the triumphani
victory over USC in the Freedom Bowl,
but that only showed us just how much
further we have to go to gain national
supremacy and not get confused with
the other FSU, Florida State University.
Alas, 1 know thai not all these goals
will be accomplished, but it's always
nice to dream.
