. Until just a few years ago,
CSUF did not have to worry about
shrinking enrollment CSUF had
seen a steady and continual in¬
crease in student enrollment
through the last few decades.
However, since the fall of
1994, CSUF has enrolled fewer
and fewer students, according to
. the fall 1994 "Student Data Book"
published by the Institutional
Research, Planning and Assess¬
ment office.
In the fall of 1992, there were ,
18,902 students enrolled. In the
fall of 1993, students enrolled to¬
taled 18,017. Last fall the enroll¬
ment number declined further
with 17,277 enrolled students,
according to the "Student Data
Book."
CSUF is not alone in its de¬
clining enrollment.
According to a survey by the
American Council on Education,
65 percent of states surveyed re¬
ported a decline in enrollment
with factors similar to those expe¬
rienced at CSUF.
' Factors ci ted by the council
included a si jinking pool of col¬
lege-age students and red uctions
in state support.

Merced wants
UC
By David Mkhadi

t
UC
They have waited long
enough
After six years, officials of a
sleepy Central California town are
hoping the promise of free land
and careful city planning will be
the hook that will get them what
they want — the next University
of California campus.
The city of Merced and its
58,000 residents believe their site
on 2,000 acres near Lake Yosemite
would be an ideal site.
According to members of the
UC Merced committee, a volun¬
teer organization that is leading
the effort to secure the next cj|m-
/ pus, Lake Yosemite is a rural "area
that will grow with the campus.
Jesse Brown, a member of the
Merced County Association of
Govemmsn ts and a member of
the committee, said the commu-
nityhas already considered many
factors that will' determine
Merced's growth patterns in the
future.
"We have already conducted
a land-use planning study that
has looked at our roads and high¬
ways. The city of Merced has cre¬
ated a year 2030 study that has
allowed room for growth," he
said. % *,
"We had planned for it al¬
ready; it was just a coincidence
that the UC came here.'*

Simpson, the man on trial for
murder.
For the past few months
media coverage has allowed
the public to view the trial'on
television and to see it in the
papers daily. Even the Univer¬
sity Student Union and Carl's
Jr. have big screen televisions
that allow students to watch
the show. But, are they inter¬
ested in the trial?
"I'm interested in what is

Alonzo said he believes
Simpson is innocent. 'The pros-
