Prof's econ data goes world wide
By Richard Ahmed
Staff Writec^^
E. conomic data just got easier to find, thanks to an exit on the infor¬ mation superhighway at California State University, Fresno.
With the advent of the Internet and the World Wide Web (WWW), many govern¬ ment and educational organizations began placing current economic data on the Internet.
One advantage of doing this is that at no cost to the researcher, the most current (some¬ times daily) information is available 24 hours a day.
The only problem is how to find these links. As a result, a Fresno State economics professor decided to make a WWW page of
useful economic data and links.
The Econ Data and Links (ED&L) page at http://www.csufresno.edu/Economics/ econ_EDL.htm is maintained by Dr. John A. Shaw, professor of economics here at Fresno State.
The organization of the WWW page is a table which is divided into particular areas and topics, value of the statistic, last update and WWW link that shows the source of the information.
For example, from ED&L, anyone can look up Fresno's population (386.551), per¬ centage of the population in poverty (14.5 percent) and the consumer price index (153.6).

CSUF hosts Johns Hopkins University summer program *
By Matthew Hart Senior*Staff Writer
After a search that included most of the nation. California State Uni¬ versity, Fresno was selected as the site for a summer youth program sponsored by Johns Hopkins.Uni- versity.
The program is aimed at aca¬ demically skilled youths in 5th-6th grades, 7th-8th grades and high school.
According to Johns Hopkins of¬ ficials, Fresno State was chosen because of its impressive academic and residential facilities, its region¬ ally-focused academic programs such as enology, its record of host¬ ing groups and the presence of a Central and Northern California student population that has not pre¬ viously been served by Hopkins \ summer programs..
