"The Gate is open to the admittance of Fresno
Sate College as a division of the University of
California."
With these prophetic words it was announced
to the members of the California state legislature
this week that certain officials of the Universitj
of California had agreed to the proposal of As-
.. Williams of Los Angeles to
make Fresno State and Santa Barbara State Col-
minor parts of the great "colonui oj the
Luiher Nicholls, comptroller' of the u
expressed the official attitude which is expected
to be backed by members of the Board of Regents of the University of California should a
showdown be reached on the proposal.
It is perhaps regrettable that the benevolent
attitude of the northern adminu
:h great faith and trust here,
wing of the regents of the
university  has  many   advantages,
those same regents.
In reality, it means that the Fresno State College—which might have been known as a strong
and independent University of Ccncral California—may be known as a "small ditiiion of
that univeriily up in Berkeley." The long fight
which the officials of this college have waged in
the interests of promoting rlie extension of liberal
arcs courses here and of increasing the prestige
of our graduates—known for their scholastic and
athletic achievements throughout the nation-
would be lost. Mass production has all the .id-
vantages of quantity, doc none of quality. As-
Hugh Burns, always a stat
porter of Fresno State, declared of the
posal that he would favor such
if the high standards of the college could be
maintained ot bettered. Is it not peculiar that a
man in Mr. burns' position would be afraid that
lower the educational value
of Fresno State? Especially if no such danger
L\ist>. Sorely Assemblyman Burns is not crying
"Wolf, wolf!" just to hear the sound of his own
To accept the proposition of tying Fresno
State to the apron strings of the University of
California would result, eventually, in the complete submergence of Fresno State as a liberal
■ arts college, and sooner ot later it would be
subjected to a narrow, rigid curricula dealing
only with a specialized department in the field
of education.
The move upon the part of Mr. Burns in asking for university standing for Fresno State was
not to restrict the educational advantages of our
•present institution, but to increase them in stride
with the growing demand for better Central
California education. That can only be accomplished by independent university status—not by
being bound band and foot to the University
of California!
