SPANISH
Gunn said the class can be used to
improve communication between manage¬
ment and the workers.
"To have that basic knowledge of
Spanish is something that will improve
the working relationship," Gunn said.
Faye Loring, from Loring Farms in
Clovis, advises agricultural students to
learn Spanish. "It helps if you know a
laborer's language, it makes them more
comfortable and also makes them better
workers," she said.
A similar class Offered every fall is
"Practical Spanish for Nurses," which
Benitez said is a more popular course. An
average of 30 students enroll in the class
per semester, Benitez said.
Dr. Karen Nishio, chairman of the
Nursing Department, said nursing majors
could benefit from the course
Although not required for the major, it
does fulfill a general education require¬
ment, she added.
Billie Baird, R.N., Hospital Services
Coordinator at Valley Medical Center,
said Spanish might be useful depending
on one's career goals.
"If someone wanted to be a part of
health care in the San Joaquin Valley, it
might help them," Baird said.
"Many people in the profession have
found that if they need an additional
language, they find a class after they have
entered their profession." Baird said.

Department and the Rodeo Club. I'd
like to see it continue. After all, the
Agriculture Department is-^rte of the
biggest departments on campus and
deserves its share of media coverage.
AIM had ever heard about, before
coming here, was what a great Agri¬
culture Department they had. I figured
since Fresno was in the middle of
California's richest agricultural area,
that was what the emphasis would be
placed on. I was surprised by how little
the Agriculture Department was actual¬
ly talked about.
When I first came to Fresno State, 1
couldn't believe how little was wtitten
about the Agriculture Department. All

the possible epidemic, Paull said, is
through education.
Vanderford said educational programs
have had a proven effect in reducing the
spread of sexually transmitted diseases
when targeted at specific groups.
There is a widespread fear of being even
near an AIDS victim, Lundal said. He
hopes the committee can counter whatever
negative feelings already exist on campus.
The committee, he said, will monitor the
situation on campus, advising groups of
policies that might have an impact on
AIDS victims.
Policies excluding victims from class,
on-campus jobs or extra-curricular ac¬
tivities are prohibited by the CSU guide¬
lines.
"1 don't believe this committee can look
forward to being done," Lundal said. "It's
an on-going concern. AIDS is not going
fashion, and not deal with it hysterically
as has happened in some communities."
The problem in the university com¬
munity is the prevalent attitude among
most students that the disease could never
strike them, Vanderford said. "The age
group in general is typically not interested
in things that will help them, typically not
concerned with what goes on beyond their
away. And when it spreads to the general,  social circle. They believe they are imper-
populafron, it's going to be a different
story.** Right now, he said, the general
population has not had to confront thc
disease.
Given the proper information, Wetzel
said students can act "in a responsible

vious to disease and will live forever," she
said.
A common reaction to any information
on AIDS, she said, is "Oh, that only
affects gays and drug users; I'm not
concerned."
After a full class presentation, however,
she said students ask such questions as. "If
[  "Km sexually active with three people a
week, am I at risk?"
W   The answer Vanderford said, is yes.
Students do not spend much time
"focusing on the negative aspects of the
things they do," whether it is drinkirig too
much, driving when intoxicated or catch¬
ing AIDS, according to Wetzel.
Hamiliton said many students "don't
want to know about threatening issues.
But in this case, ignorance is not bliss."
People tend to react in panic to thc
disease, a paranoia caused through ignor¬
ance, she said. Hamiliton spoke of a
survey in which 50 percent said they
thought AIDS was contracted casually,
and 60 percent believed they would
someday catch it.
The student age group is the best age to
reach people with the correct information
concerning the virus and its transmission,
she said.
After a presentation to a Human
Sexuality  class,   Hamiliton   polled   the
students for response. One student said, "I
learned more than I wanted to."
The committee will be organizing many
class presentations as more instructors
have requested speakers for their classes.
Paull said. A large amount of pamphlets
will be distributed thoroughout the campus
in January, and another has already gone
out to the faculty in the administration's
"Monday Report." Lectures, seminars and
lunchtime programs are being considered
for next semester, Paull said.
A survey of the residence halls, Wetzel
said, is planned before winter break. The
committee needs to know what grasp
students have of an issue, and the residence
hall students are "an easy group to sample,"
he said.
There is a lot of misinformation to be
countered about the transmission of the
disease, Paull said. Fears of catching
AIDS from casual contact in social,
educational or occupational relations are
unfounded, he said.
