THECOLLEGIAN
Newi
Letter, from page 2
and are trying to overcome our pov¬
erty by education for better jobs.
Even though I am while myself,
I am disgusted watching" my fellow
classmates be immature in their
judgments about other races, gen¬
der and religion. It is discrimina¬
tion, prejudice and racism. I en¬
courage students to attend the ASI
meetings on Thursdays every week
at 3:30 p.m. [in the University]
Student Union, rooms 312-314 to
witness the discrimination in per¬
son.
These ASI members have voted,
a $8 decrease in fees to be put on
the ballot on April 12. However,
they are real quiet about what will
be cut in services and activities on
campus. Since it is discriminating,
there is a good reason why it has
been kept quiet. They will cut the
child care centers on campusfor
starters so students must bring
young child/en to class every day.
All cultural and women's services ,
will be cut All cultural weeks and
activities will be cut on campus.
Some newspapers will not be
funded. Lecture programs on cam¬
pus will- be hurt in funding. Club
funding will be cut according to
race, gender and religion. If a group
is White, they will get the funding.
Ifthe group or club is non-while or
deals with women/funding will be
T-"
Frjesno State by any other name..
Editor.
In response to Jeff Smith's
letter (4/7): You stated in your
letter that you were concerned
by The Collegian's use of the
name FSU to refer to our cam;
pus.
One ofthe reasons you stated
for your discontent was that
"FSU sounds like some podunk
' town no one has ever heard of
and never will." While I dis¬
agree that no one has ever heard
of Fresno—I have friends from
all oyer the country who laugh
when I tell them rim living in
Fresno—I do agree that it makes
it sound like "some podunk town."
That's what Fresno is, a podunk
town. You and I live in a podunk
town. It doesn't mean that you and
I are necessarily podunk-like, but
wedoindeedliveinapodunktown.
* The American Heritage Dictio¬
nary defines podunk as "a small,
While it is true mat Fresno is no
longer small, it is isolated (we live
in the middle of a desert), and it is
arguably unimportant Our impor¬
tance is gauged by many fellow
Californians in that we have the
worst crime rate in the state.
You also stated that you are par¬
tial to the title California State Uni¬
versity, Fresno because you
"liked the prestigious sound of
the name." That is fine and dandy
if you actually attended a presti¬
gious university, However,
Fresno State is not a prestigious
school. ..
11 is by no means the worst
college in the country, or in the
state, but it js not prestigious.
Duke, UCLA, CaL.thcse are
prestigious schools. Fresno State
isnot. '>
In short, Jeff, a rose by any
other name is still the same.
DaveMcNabola
An equally concerned student '
cut It is discrimination and preju¬
dice in action. |
One ASI member, Pete
Nicholson, called our children
"dogs," and die parents "dog own¬
ers.*' He called the much needed
child care centers "dog kennels."
This is uncalled for. One Reality
member in the room said why she
didn't want to pay for child care for
others in fees. Shestated she doesn't
have sex, so why should she pay for
children's care for others? These
statements are disgusting and un¬
just in nature. The truth is only $4
or an average lunch price goes to
the child care centers, per school
year so our classrooms can be quiet
for learning. The other $4 supports
our clubs, organizations, services
and activities. In truth and reality,
the $8 decrease in fees does not
make much sense. It is a foolish
move for us to allow in our activi¬
ties and services, j".
For the child care centers, a
LONG [list of students are waiting]
and another site needs to be opened
for die student population on cam¬
pus. So, on March 24 over 40 chil¬
dren and their parents came to the
ASI meeting to protest and give
testimony against the fee decrease.
These ASI members listed above
did not care but for themselves. It
was still voted to be put on the
ballot in a room full on angry stu¬
dents trying to project the rights of
equal treatment for all to enjoy on
campus. The students weren't only
trying to protect us now, but for
future students on our lovely cam¬
pus in &esno.
Also, at the meeting, the
Women's Resource Center had an
excellent speaker come to our cam¬
pus to speak. The ASI approved it
for funding without problem. Now,
however,' the ASI members who
belong to the Reality Party on cam¬
pus [haven' t released] the approved
funding for OVER a month to the
Women's Resource Center after
frustrated, repeated requests for it.
When asked why, no real reason ia
given by them and only excuses.
They try to stall the talking about
funding as well. At one point they
said it was still in committee after it
had been approved already.
So we CHALLENGE the Real¬
ity Party and those ASI members
listed above to visit our much-
needed child care centers and other
cultural organizations. We CHAL¬
LENGE them to visit the services
on campus as well.lt is not good to •
judge foolishly or unwisely.
