Intercultural education means your
ability to correlate the events happen,
lng In other countries with those ocur-
rlng In your country^'
For example, how does population in.
crease or famine Inlndla affect the United
States? How does the-violation ofhumin
rights In the Soviet Union affect us
here? How could the apartheid South
African government affect the Blacks
here In Fresno and In this country?
What impact will there be In the UA
If many African countries become com-
mtnistic?
These are some of the reasons for-
Intercultural education. Look beyond the
walls of your community. Take a trip
to Africa at CSUF.

Prof sees auto industry improvement
by Francis Durham
Staff Contributor
Though you may believe auto
nanufacturers are toning out
„,ore and more "lemons," one
CSUF professor believes cars
at Improving.
Merle Adrian (see other story-
thls page), assistant professor of
Industrial arts and technology,
said government restrictions
have caused automobiles to be
'safer, cleaner, and more economical. Today's cars also have
longer lives, be said.
"Safety standards, auto emission standards and gas mileage
requirements are putting de-
minds on car manufacturers to
improve them," he said.
"Cars In the 19S0*s might not
Have lasted 30,000 miles, but
today they are expected to last
over 100.000."
Adrian, who teaches several
lutomoblle mechanics classes,'
..mats 'no drastic change la the
usage  of the
earring in other areas Involving
Mir-moblles.
'People will have to accept
sheer acceleration rates," be
sill, explaining that the. govern-
meni allows cars to have less
torsepower than most actually
Cars are also becoming lighter, be sail. He estimated cars
weighing nearly 3^M pounds will
be down to about 2,500 pounds
in several years to Increase
mileage.
The larj?st mi of development, Adrian feels, is tn auto
electronics. The higher priced
cars such as Lincoln, ani Cadillacs are being Instilled with
micro-processors, which detect
various system failures, such as
bnkes and transmissions.
Adrian said he can Imagine
electronics s:i sophisticated Ihat
oy pressing a button to open
your garage door, your car als.->
starts up.
Despite these changes. Adrian
said, the automobile is still an
extremely Inefficient machine,
automobiles are It to 13 percent
thermal  <»!fl;ijnt.    Generators
Thermal "tflelency is measured
by the amount of British Thermal
Untas(BrUs) in i gsi'.M of gas
us i-d efCietlvelyoy each machine.
Even the drawback of low efficiency will not keep cars off
the roads, said Adrian.
For example, be said that San
Francisco's Bay Area Rapid
Transit ?3ART) system Is "ail
right," but was not satisfactory
if be wantjd to gel 3omewherr;
at any time.
Transportation has to undergo
changes but has to be tempered
with moderation, otherwise, believes Adrian, "the pablti won't
