Tuesday
Protesters rally against fee hike
'We have
to fight back!'
CSUF students began to raise their
voices Monday in opposition to fee
increases that many say will force as
many as 30,000 students out of the Calif¬
ornia   State   University   and   Colleges
. Monday's protest started with a press
conference sponsored by the CSUF Alli¬
ance, a group of CSUF student organ¬
izations that Includes MEChA, the Cen¬
eral Union of Palestinian Students,
the Pan Afrikan Union and others.
They were represented by Jerry Con-
zales of MEChA. Others in attendance
were Associated Student President
Jeff Watson; Dr. Jesus Luna, chairman
of the Department of LaRaza Studies;
CSUF professor Jerry McMenamon;
and student Johnny Owens, who repre¬
sented   the   CSUF   black
Conzales blasted the fee increase pro-
proposal, saying that the increases,
along with proposed cuts in student aid,
"favor the rich." He said that the fee
increases would force many people out
of the CSUC system and that most of
those would be minority students.
Watson said that the fee increases
were a Band-aid solution and that the
state Legislature had not addressed
other ways to ease the blow to higher
education. He suggested that taxes
should be increased on products like
cigarettes and liquor, and that busines¬
ses should pay higher property taxes.
McMenamon told reporters that state
budget cutters were looking in the wrong
place for money to help balance the
budget. He said that there was no
money in the CSUC budget that could be
wisely cut without doing damage to the
CSUC system's quality of education.
Later, at a demonstration against the
fee increases in the Free Speech Area
attended by approximately 150 people,
speaker after speaker blasted the fee
increases with rhetoric reminiscent of
the 1960s. They said that students could
be paying $487 per semester by next fall.
Lily Espinoza, a CSUF student, told
the assembled students, "We have to
fighLbefA!-We tan't let this" country do
this to us.'
The CSUF Alliance vocalized their opposition

forced out. Will you be one?' Another
said, 'Tax the Bulldog Foundation,
not the students."
Walter Robinson, of the Equal Oppor¬
tunity Program at CSUF, said: "We
must sensitize people to the needs of
minorities.* He sent on to attack Pres¬
ident Ronald Reagan's economic pro¬
gram, which he felt was partly respon¬
sible for budget cuts that helped force
the fee increases.
'There is something wrong with the
people running this country,' Robinson
said.
Some of the speeches were marked by
chants among the speaker and crowd,
such as: "The people united will never
be defeated."
Teresa Perez, the director of the
bi-lingual education program at CSUF,
said that in recent years she had seen
students "turn away from activism* and
that if this course doesn't "change,
minority students are going to be forced
to take'a giant leap backward.'
All of the speakers reiterated the need
for students to stick together in the fight
to defeat the fee increase*.-
'Stay together and unite,' Conzales
said.    This tuition thing will not go
A.S. Senator David Wright reminded
students that the A.S. will be having an
anti-fee rally of its own next Monday
and urged that they attend. \
At the end of the rally approximately
75 students with signs marched to the
Thomas Administration Building and
to the office of CSUF President Harold
Haak while chanting. The people
will never be defeated.'
When the marchers reached the door
of Haak's office they found that it
was locked because he was out to lunch.
After waiting for about 10 minutes, the
demonstrators left Haak's office
pledging that they would return.
The group's feelings were summed up
by one protester who said, 'He's gotta
know the is just the beginning.'
