Bright colors, fun pictures,

make tfje children's activity
roem a place parents can leave
thekchikirentoplay while they
tackle more serious and often
more grueling matters with¬
out wMries or distractions.
Parents who need to use
the CSU, Fresfto library and
have their children looked af¬
ter at the same time can breathe
easy knowing^ere's a safe
place where they can lea ve tfteir
young ones. \
The robm located on the
second floof of the Madden
Library is designed to enter¬
tain children1, ages 3 to 12 years
old, free of charge, while par¬
ents study or do research.
The room's concept was
the brain child of Susan
Gonzales-Shweiki, ASI presi¬
dent and Stacey Green, chaw¬
ed Califbrrua State Student As-
sociatioa Both realized the need
for such a facility, especially
Gonzales-Sh weiki because of her
own situation.
"We know there's a real big
need for child care on campus,"
said Gonzales-Shweiki, a full-
time student and mother of two.
"It was actually because of my
own self and seeing Other stu¬
dents with children."
Under the charge of the ASI,
the room is presently funded by
die auxiliary services, which con¬
tributed $8,500 to help start up
the room last year, and deans of
various departments, Gonzales-
Shweiki said.
In a budget proposal for 1995,
Gonzales-Shweiki estimates a
need for nearly $20,000 to run the
room. She said she wijl try to get
ASt to contribute since they are in /
charge of the service.
. Michael Gdrman, library
dean, said that though he does
not have the resources to fund the

Sisters Bridget, 3, and Kelly Carlson, 6, check out some of
the toys the c^reWadfvtty room has to offer. Their mom,
Karia, is a CSUF student who was unaware of the service that
the room provides. She said that she would more than likely

Civil Rights
Initiative
attacks
affirmative
action*
. By Draeger Martinez
Staff writer
The issue alreadyThjjled by
some as the "the Proposition 187
of 1996" isn't a cause for worry
among campife officials.
Much as Proposition 187 pro¬
vided the spark for a nationwide
debate! on immigration, another
California ballot referendum in¬
tends to do the same for affirma¬
tive action programs. Titled the
California Civil Rights Initiative
(CCRI), the measure intends to .
prohibit state and local govern¬
ments and state universities from
either discriminating or using
preferential treatment based on
race, ethnicity or gender. The
scope of the initiative would en¬
compass decisions in admitting
students, hiring, or contracting.
"If s the No.4 issue for the
election of 1996/' said Mark
Johnson, chairman of Fresno

mittee. "Gov. Wilson has come
out for it, and last Saturday he
pledged to immediately issue an
