CSUF foreign pay $3.5 million tuition
Foreign and nonresident students at
CSUF have paid almost S3.5 million in
tuition over the academic year, in addition
to the fees that all students must pay.
"We arc tremendously more expensive
than a lot of states in the country," said
Carol Munshower, of International Stu¬
dent Services.
The 1,200 foreign and nonresident stu¬
dents of CSU F have paid $3,438,812 dur¬
ing the fall "84 and spring -85 semesters,
according to the accounting office.
The average fulltime (15 units) resident
This semester, tuition ws J117 per unit,
and next semester it is scheduled to go up
to $126. •
Ruth Murrell of accounting said stu¬
denu come here because the tuition is
reasonable, but Munshower disagrees.
"Even southern states tharge around
$600, and the uniu are unlimited," said
Munshower. She said states in this region
also charge less tuition than CSUs.
Foreign students have difficulties deal¬
ing with even gradual tuition increases
and are ineligible for financial aid, she

"A student may start out paying $97 per
unit, and by the time ihey finish it's $ 130.
There may be a fixed budget from home,
which makes it even more difficult," she
said.
Some foreign/nonresidenU rely on
scholarships, bul Munshower said most
scholarships are geared toward rcsidenu.
She thinks local businesses with multi¬
national interesu could help ease this
problem if they would ofTer scholarships
to foreign studenu.
Another possibility might be a "work
study" type program thai is currently
operating in Oregon. Grants are awarded
to international students, and in return,
they donate time in public service.
Right now, the CSU Board of Trustees
Recently, the trustees passed a measure
raising the number of units for part time
enrollment from five to six. This allows
for two classes to be taken at the lower fee
rate. Foreign students, however, will not
benefit from this move, because they are
required to be enrolled as full time
studenu.
The money paid in foreign tuition goes
into the state general fund, and the amount
the campus gets back is not a direct per¬
cenUge of what the foreign studenu pay.
CSUF receives a dollar amount for each
full time student.
"Foreign students are always full

There is no representative body that

Munshower thinks that serious eco-
nomic problems would result if foreign
students were not oncampus. There would
not "be as many programs offered, and
during a recession, faculty could be faced
with a lay-off situation.
"Budgelarily, foreign students are nec¬
essarily pan of thc campus," she said.
Election '85-
Candidates debate
campaign issues
Candidates in the Associated Students'
upcoming May elections debated over the
AS Senate's role in national issues and
other matters Wednesday night, kicking
off the first day of unofficial campaigning
for many legislative and executive office
Sen. Steve Bruhn, School of Engineer¬
ing, who is challenging the incumbant
President Jeff Hansen, defended the
senate's involvement in foreign affairs and
He said the motion wa   passed to raise
surrounding thc donation.
However, Bruhn denied that he was
solely interested in foreign affairs.
"People say I'm just interested in foreign
nations and that's just not true," Bruhn
Bruhn tangled with Hansen over funding
of CSUF athletics. Students should noi
have to fund athletics, pruhn said, because
the Bulldog Foundation is so successful in
raising funds that CSUF athletic teami
should be. financially independent.
"Why should we even have them on
campus if we're not going lo suppon
them?" Hansen asked. "Why dont wcjujt
call them the Fresno City Bulldogs?"
Bruhn responded lhat students voted lo
fund minor sports a few years ago to help
them out of a financial bind and that now
athletics doesnt need the help.
Hansen, who describes himself as i
"strong supporter of athletics," said
students should become more involved
with the sports program and suggested
bringing back homecoming activities on
campus.

Salvadoran tells of fear, violence
The people of El Salvador want peace.
But peace is unattainable, according to
Moises Herrera, until the United Slates
withdraws financial support from the El
Salvadoran government.
Herrera. a 22-year-old Salvadoran
refugee, was the second to speak at CSUF
under the newly formed Campus Sanc¬
tuary Coalition.
The Coalition consists of five campus
organizations and has pledged to provide
bail and legal counsel to refugees if
problems arise with the U.S. Immigration
and Naturalization Service.
Refugees have in opportunity to give
their testimony through the Coalition,
and it gives studenu a look at what's going
on in El Salvador, said Ann Johnston,
co-chairwoman for the CSC

from "International Night" for the inter¬
