Frosh senate candidates voice contrasting views,
e running for
the office of Freshman Senator
this semester. There are two po¬
sitions to be filled.
Nat DIBuduo ls an agriculture
major with interest in viticulture.
He was graduated from San Joa¬
quin Memorial High School In
Fresno. DIBuduo hopes to enter
the field of farm management.
"He said that' students, should
become more Involved In cam¬
pus politics because there ls
more .to learn In coUege'than
what ls found In books.
Part of DIBuduo's platform
ls that he ls running as a fresh-
roan and hopes to represent the
freshman class fairly.
DIBuduo said the senate should
have one representative from aU
the minorities rather than singl¬
ing out the blacks or the browns.
Jesse Gonzalez ls Interested
In professional politics. He ls
majoring In political science and
was graduated from Reedley High
He said he hopes to promote
a better understanding between
the black and brown minorities
and k*e white majority.
To achieve this end, Gonzalez
suggests the Student Senate ap¬
propriate a specified sum of
money for the purchase of books
dealing with the black and brown
cultures.
"I feel that the student and.
faculty should feel free to hold
meaningful dialogues on aU Is¬
sues, regardless of their con¬
troversial nature, without fear
of reprisal or Intimidation," Gon-
Gonzalez's campaign litera¬
ture states that he supports the
amendment providing senators
from the black and Chicano mi¬
norities. He feels this will pro¬
mote better understanding among
these groups.
Jim Haron was graduated from
Bullard' High School In Fresno.
He ls majoring In political sci¬
ence with hopes of entering the
field   of pubUc  administration.
Haron said he feels qualified
to hold the office of Freshman
Senator because he has both the
Interest and experience to do a
capable Job.
• 'At Fresno State College I've
gained Important Insights on the
functions of student government
by attending the board of direct¬
ors meeUngs, all board of pub-
Ucatlon meeUngs and the four
Student Senate meetings," Haron
said.
He said that this was an Im¬
portant point for It lets htm
speak  intelligently on Issues.
Jim Harper ls also a political
science major. He comes to
Fresno State from Sacramento.
Regarding academic freedom,
Harper says that although an In¬
structor's life is his own outside
the classroom, he serves as an
example to the entire community.
He stated that theadminlstra-
tlon should be solely responsible
for formulating coUege policy*. An
enlightened administration, how-.
ever, ls Interested in the views
takes   them   Into. a<
formulating policy, t
Harper said that s
be Judged as individuals, but he
can't support the minority
amendment. Rather than have
each minority represented by a
senator, the existing senators
should represent all their con¬
stituents.
He said that more attention
should be paid to the world sit¬
uation, particularly the conditions
In Biafra.
Tom Kelly Is an electrical en¬
gineering major whose special
Interests are travel and employ¬
ment with an airline. He Is a
graduate of Galthersburg High
School In Galthersburg, Md.
Kelly said he appreciates the
problems of making important de¬
cisions, and hopes to have the
chance to prove himself as Fresh¬
man Senator.
He commented that CaUfornia
ls the greatest place In tre world
to live and this Is why he came
Kelly feels that the minorities
have other channels through which
to be heard. For this reason, he
slated he is against the minority
senator amendment.
Frank Maul ls Interested in law
and politics. He ls a political
science major and was graduated
from McLane High School.
He said he ls running for the
office ot senator because he wants
to do something to help people
obtain Justice and equality.
Maul stated that the minorities
are not a real part of our society
at present. For this reason, he ls
In favor of the amendment to
provide representation for the
black and Chicano students.
He said he would like to see
more      activities  Involving the
person- -activities that help de-  ,
velop leadership.

large,* Maul said. 'As part of
this Involvement, the entire stu¬
dent body should lake a stand on
such things as the Biafra situa¬
tion.
"Why should we worry about
small things when our neighbors
are starving?" he asked.

The other side of the coin: the
university, through direct In¬
volvement, learns about the slum.
In the beginning lt'was thought
most of the staffing of centers
would be by students and others
associated with the university.
What happened: the greatest
share of the burden for the store¬
front operation has been carried
by the local residents. Some are
housewives. But a great many are
Junior and senior high school
students who feel, as one put it:
'For the first time in quite a
while, I feel that I am part of
something worthwhile."
What happens at the centers:
adults receive continuing educa¬
tion, high school equivalency
courses or computer program
training. Children get remedial
help through, tutorial programs
set up in cooperation with the
Community Aid Corps, a student
group.
At Rhode Island CoUege, help
ls extended through project "re¬
call." More than 450 high school
dropouts have been encouraged

Force on Urban Affairs of the
American Association of State
