Library houses over 300,000 boob A black iron prlnUng press InstanUy becomes visible upon entering the FresnoStateCollege Library. The mechanism, built during the 1870's, was originally a gift ti .e Indust: s De partment from a local printing firm. In recent years, with detachable parts removed, It has greeted those seeking knowledge from the Ubrary's wealth of materials. Similar printing presses have created the 300.000 vol- shr-lvc The building scholarly tone of thesev recently been lighted with the addition of «The Cat ln the Hat*, and other juvenile classics from the Laboratory School. California's 1070-71 budget allocated only $388,000 for FSC's purchase of books and periodicals. This represents a decrease of 33 per cent from last year's expendllures.

Prohibited from circulation are periodicals, reference hooks and other works marked accordingly. Among the special services offered by the library are coin operated typewriters, lockers and a microprint reading rjom. The FSC Association operates a photocopy center within the building. Each year the library staff offers an orientation program to acquaint freshmen and transfer students with their facility. The 1970 session of lectures and tours Is scheduled to take place from September 28 to October 9.

Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m., Saturday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sunday from 2 p.m. to 10 p.m. How does a student succeed ln coUege without really trying? During a recent conversation I had with two students, who attended FSC for 12 years, t got the Inside story. First, It is best to Investigate (by friends) who the "easy* and 'hard* Instructors are. It ls a well-known fact many freshman-class Instructors Uke to fall as many new students as possible. If you think you've got an Instructor Uke that, It may be wise to drop his class and go to 'Easy College* otherwise known as City College. A class ln Chem. IA, Spanish, or Sociology Is always available at night, If the day session ls not Onctvyou have decided to keep your classes, it Is wise to make a visit to the secluded privacy of your Instructor's office. It ls here, that he will get to know going to him early ln the semester, when'grade pressure* ls off, It Illustrates that you are a'concerned student* ln the *A or When grade time comes around, and you have a B plus average, he will most likely remember those Uttle private discussions, and give youan'A". Of course. It ls always unwise to visit his offlce If you are not prepared. The best policy to follow is draw-up a Ust of deal. Another source for texts ls the FSC Ubrary. Many Umes, the text for your class wlU be ln their collection and available for student use. This is an effective system, especially for the student who waits to the last week to cram for a final. Another point a student should look for ln a class, ls how many, tests, and/or papers he vUl have to write during the semester. It might be wise to poll all Instructors ln 'that* particular class to find who has the most to offer for the least amount of work. Not that work Isn't bad, but a good grade does not always depend upon the amount of work hours outside of class. When wridng papers, always check the periodicals ln the U- brary. Generally, an article can be located that wlU summertze your paper topic. It ls easy to type a ten page report, with your only source being a magazine article. Remember, always list an equal number of e will be mi v the happy to reiterate the day's lecture. For, there ls nothing more redundant (for you) or self-satisfying (for htm), than have him review his notes. Textbooks are always a problem cost wise. Never buy your text until you have attended the first class session. Generally, an instructor will have a long list of text materials i r utilize purchase during the semester. Also, when taking General Ed. classes, it ts a good Idea to purchase used books. You will probably never open these books again after completing the course Again, when buying It is best buy. so. check bulletins posted around campus, and at "Easy College* for the best passing midterms, or finals ls to get together with the other class members, compare notes, and review class assignments together. This makes It easier to remember material, and gives you variety as to Information others have collected. It ls wise to Include the *A or B* students One final point. It Is a good Idea to ask each Instructor two questions. What ls the purpose of the class? and what are the objectives of the class? It might seem these questions are the same, yet many times the answers are different. Most of the time, questions the first day of class. Some cannot because they do not possess the answers. In conclusion, a student who visits his Instructor early, asks questions ln class, studies with others, and utilizes the many services of the library-, will generally receive the best class does take unfair advantage, by giving too many assignments, or ln other ways, there are channels available for complaints. One such avenue ls the Dean of Students Office. Financial Aids Office offers financial help to FSC students Having financial difficulties? There ls a place on campus for Fresno State College students to receive financial help. It's the Financial Aids Office located ln Room 289 of the New AdmlnlstraUon Building. A student can receive counseling there from a staff of seven, which Includes counselors Cres Hernandez, John Green, Joe Ramos, Robert Ramirlez; a work study coordinator, Adan Juarez: an evaluator, Patricia Loch- er and Venule Matheson. n-nd of the Fimnclsl Ids Office. Various flnancua . j programs such as scholarships and grants, loans and work study are available to students whoquUlfy and apply before deadlines. These programs are; Scholarships and grants-- Awards from $100 to $800 are made with conslde ration to the applicant's grades, academic po tential, activities, college major and financial need. National Defense Student Loans --Undergraduate students can borrow up to $1000 a year for a maximum of $5000, graduate students can borrow up to $2,- 500 a year for a combined maximum of$10,000. Interest ls not charged unUl nine months after the student graduates or takes 8 units or less of class work. Payments extend for ten years. Students who become teachers may have part of their loan reduce1 <-• ■lnctlled. Firs FSC s $1,5< of $7,500. If the student's family Income Is less than $15,000 the federal government will pay Interest while the student ls ln school and 9 to 12 months after he finishes. Emergency Loans -- Full-Ume students (12 units or more) may dents are not eligible. Work Study Program—Fulltime students from low-income families who need employment ln order to finish their education participate In this program. Employment may be at FSC or at an approved off-campus project. Educational Opportunity Grant --Full-time undergraduate students from a low-income background can apply for a grant which will not be less than $200 and not more than $1,000, renewable upon satisfactory' performance. Special scholarships and loans are also available to students majoring In nursing or law enforcement. Applying for the various financial aid programs, except for emergency loans, requires filing a financial statement of the student's assets and liabilities, a parent's confidential financial statement or affidavit of non-support. The applications should /be submitted before March 1 for th following academic the student ls under 24 years of age and single, he or she must file their own statement and a parent's confidential financial statement If they claimed the student for tax purposes. If the student Is under 24 years of age for taxes for the previous year or the year he ls applying for, an affidavit of non-support from his parents must be made. If the student ls married, or over 24 years of age, he must file a confidential statement of his financial situation. Financial eUglblllty depends on the type of loan or grant sought. To be eligible for an educational opportunity grant, parents must have an Income of less than SC.000 for one working parent or $7,500 for both working parents, whether the student ls married or not. This Information ls needed for federal and state requirements. For a National Defense Loan, the parent's Income must be less than $10,000 for one parent working and less than $11,500 for both parents working. There are no parental Income stipulations for nursing and law ships. ■Students who can not obtain aid under these programs can apply for federally Insured loans,* says Hernandez. To be eligible for the loan, the appUcant's parents must have had an account at a participating bank for at least six months. r, September B. 1970 THE DAILY COLLEGIAN College Association guides student activities The $10 you spend each se- student activities member of the Fresno State College AssoclaUon.
