Millbrook High School provides
alternative learning experience
By Kathy
Collegian Staff Writer
If you wait for the typical
morning bell to ring at Millbrook
High School, you'll be late, since
there are no bells, or anything
else typical ot most high schools,
there.
Millbrook, an alternative high
school located at 430 S. FVrstSt.,
was storied In Sept. 1971byMrs.
Dorothy Mabey, an English teach¬
er- who worked tn ghetto youth
programs In the Roxbury district
of Boston, Mass., and her
husband, Rendell; a CSUF philos¬
ophy professor, who was fired
In 1970 and reinstated by a court
order this fall.
According to Mrs. Mabey, di¬
rector of the school, one of the
reasons Millbrook was started
was  to provide a  school for a
Foreign student
meeting Monday
reen foreign
student leaders and The Dally
Collegian staff about Increased
foreign student Input Into the
newspaper will be held Monday
at 5 p.m. In The Dally Collegian
Office (Keats Campus Building).
Topics to be discussed will
include the viability or resuming

ment, which formerly was a part
of   the publication.  All  foreign
group of dissatisfied Roosevelt
High School students. The stu¬
dents had dropped out In March
1970 to start their own school,
called Friends Free HlghSchool.
The    school   only   lasted   six
"We started Millbrook to pro¬
vide an alternative for all kinds
of people, especially people who
were poor.* said Mrs. Mabey.
Mrs. Mabey satd tuition for the
school ranges from $1 to $80 per
month, depending on the'family's
ability.
Mrs. Mabey said another rea¬
son the Mabeys started the school
was because of their dissatis¬
faction   with   the  public  school
"It's too big, too Impersonal,
and there are too many bureau¬
cratic hassles," aald Mrs. Ma¬
bey. "The schools were supposed
to be for the students, but they
never really were. You just end
up putting people Into slots."
1 remember we were talking
one day about what kids learned
In public schools and one of the
kids said, 1 learned In public
school that I was dumb',* said
Professor Mabey.
•In public schools, people learn
certain definitions
and become socialized. It1

-said.
Before starting Millbrook, Mrs.
Mabey taught at parochial schools
In Fresno and Boston. While In
Boston,    she   also   taught  at
CENTAUM (Committee 00 Edu¬
cational Needs to Aid Unwed
Mothers) located In the Roxbury
ghetto and sponsored by .the Bos¬
ton public School System. She
also participated In EXODUS, a
community summer enrichment
program for ghetto children, run
by a group or ghetto mothers.
While the school Is licensed by
the State of California to award
diplomas and lbs credits are rec¬
ognized as transferable by the
Fresno City Unified School Dis¬
trict, Millbrook Is nol yet ac¬
credited, since a school must
operate for three years before
accreditation. Mrs. Mabey aald
the accreditation process will
begin thts year at Millbrook.
"Accreditation Is a rip-off,*
said Professor Mabey. "It costs
$1,500 to get a label."
Mrs. Mabey said the main
problems Millbrook had when It
began were financial difficulties,
and trying to find'a building for
the school. She said the school
moved from several locations
until tbey rented their present
building from the First Armenian
Presbyterian Church.

African relief workers
seek help from students
By Dave Guffey '
Collegian Staff Writer
•Try to go without lunch Just
one day each week," was the plea
made by Marc Lasher, head of the
CSUF African Dought Relief Pro¬
ject (ADRP), "and donate the
money to us or to someotheror-
canizatlon like UNICEF that Is In¬
volved with the food problem."
Lasher was speaking In the
Free Speech Area yesterday af¬
ternoon In observance of a fast
"to make known to ourselves the
feelings of not having food when
we are used tott. The fast Is also
a form of recognition of the pro¬
longed suffering of thesepeople,*
he said.
The newly-formed ADRP has
been set up to raise funds to be
sent directly to the United Na¬
tions Food and Agriculture Or¬
ganization for their "Sahellan
Zone Trust Fund* to help the
'l rought-strtcken countries In the
sahellan area In Africa.
A severe seven-year drought
has crippled the African coun¬
tries of Chad, Gambia. Mauritan¬
ia, upper Volta, Nigeria, Mall,
Sudan, Ethiopia and Guinea.
Cetachew Yadeta, a CSUF stu¬
dent from Ethiopia, told the small
crowd that had gathered, 'The
situation ls so bad In my country
that we have to channel money
for food through the student-or-
fanlzatlons because the govern¬
ment would Just spend the money
on something else."
"Our   country   greatly   needs
your help," Yadeta
It has been estimated by U.N.
officials that $30 million Is need¬
ed to successfully tackle the
problem faced by these African
countries.
According to Lasher, so far
$10 million has been raised, and
the $20 million "ls really needed
