The DaUy Collegian Wednesday. March 1. 1989 Page 5 CFA Continued from page 1 bargaining table when CSL's current contract ends in 1991. It would most definitely help students through qua'i'y education. I can't sec how it could be more dirccdy related," she said. Apedaile. who'^fiandlcs die CSU campuses in Fresno and Bakersfield, said part of the quality education issue concerns instructors' workloads. Kessler, chair of Fresno's workload committee, .tressed the importance of a realistic workload for instructors. "We did a survey last fall on workloads. On our cam¬ pus, about 80 percent found their workload inadequate or excessive," said Kessler. "Many universities comparable to CSUF have nine unit teaching loads; we have 12 units." According to Kessler, a number of elements directly related to an instructor's and student's welfare are adversely affected by an excessive workload. "An overloaded class, how much attention students get. what type of assignments are given out-scantron or essay, a professors ability lo slay current in the field, he said. 1/ would most definitely help student through quality education. —Marcia Apedaile Apedaile added that a closed tcsumoniaJ on workloads will be held for faculty next month. A hearing open to the press, public and students will be held, probably sometime in the fall. Dominick said there arc different ways new members are recruited into CFA. "Some find out we're unionized and automatically join. Some arc recruited by colleagues as soon as they hit die campus," he said. The largest percentage of instructors belonging to CFA are those on the tenure track. According to Dom- inick,120 (62.1 percent) CSUF tenured or probationary instructors belong to CFA. Fresno membership totals about 580 active members, said Dominick. About 40 percent of CSUFs temporary faculty-or lecturers, have joined CFA. Those teaching less than six units compose 18.9 percent. According to Dominick. the nse in membership for Fresno is not uncommon "Wc do duii a lol. For die 19X7-88 year, wc recruited about 132 new members.' said Dominick. By the end of fall of the previous year. 60 new members were recruited." Apedaile believes solidarity is needed in CFA in order for it to be effective. We need to support each other. Wc need the faculty's support, especially since we've got the ihree-year quality educauon campaign. Wc need strength to lake il to the bargaining table," stressed Apedaile. Dominick said CSUF is a more relaxed campus and not so contentious as others. "The president and others here aren't raising hell with faculty rights. There's no reason to overcome a dicta¬ torial president as there might be with other campuses,'' said Dominick. An important issue CFA is dealing with nationwide, is the alleged contractual violation by the CSU system, said Apedaile. Besides the legal aspects, CFA offers members a number of benefits according to Apedaile. "Financial benefits, such as auto and life insurance. S1 million job liability coverage, attorney referral sevices." said Apedaile. This week is the first week of Fresno's spring member¬ ship drive. CFA's goal in recruitment this year is 100 new members. "I think we have at least 70 already. I had ?U- something last fall." said Apedaile. who added she was sure it would reach ihe eoal MONEY Continued from page 3 the time to apply simply because they feel their income is too high. "Any student who makes the judge¬ ment that he is not eligible is cheating himself." Heuston said. "Many would be surprised to find they are eligible for SI.000 to $2,000." Another reason students fail to apply is due to a lengthy 96-qucsuon application which asks everything from a students background to the parents assets. The applicaton can be used for nearly a d07en campus-based financial programs, or for governmental funding, which in dudes ihe Pell and Cal Grants and the Stafford Student Loan.
