IWhere's my permit?
Dear Fditor,
At the beginning of this semester. I
paid for my tuition and parking sticker
through the mail as the majority of
students here at Fresno did. After
nearly a month into the semester. I
became suspicious as to why I had not
received my parking sticker yet, so I
decided to take action.
I spoke to a cashier at the Joyal
Building and explained to her that I
had not received my parking sticker
yet. She said, "The only thing you
a could do is purchase, another parking
sticker. Thc university is not responsible
for parking stickers lost in the mail."
The cashier was'referring to the blue
form in the registration package.
After learning that I could not get a
refund or parking sticker, I became
very upset. I feel this process with the
parking sticker is unfair. I do not think
the administration here at Fresno can
put the responsibility on thepost office.
I do not even know whether I was sent a

parking sticker or not. The cashier at
Joyal Administration did not show me
any evidence as to whether I was sent a
parking sticker or not.
After getting nowhere I went home
and gathered my evidence together. I
looked through my cancelled checks
and there it was; $33.75 written to the
Order of CSUF. I now knew they had
cancelled thc check and received the
funds. So where is my sticker?
The two things'*! am positive about
are: CSUFhasmy$33.75.and that I do
not have the parking sticker that I paid
for. So what are they doing with my
money?
I think it is very unfair that I could
not even get my money back or even
another sticker. But the most important
part is when I went home and looked
through my registration material and
reread the blue parkingform. it said in
small bold print the following: The
university assumes no liability for lost
decals. Great! But what the cashier said
is that the university is not responsible
for parking stickers (decals) lost in the
mail (putting the responsibility on the
post office).
So I think it is a whole new ballgame.
What kind of business are they running?
I have already received one parking
ticket because I could not park on
campus even though I legitimately have
a right to.
This is a great inconvenience, and I
have not given up hope because I plan
to pursue it further. I strongly recom¬
mend that anyone planning to purchase
a parking sticker next semester do so in
person.
To make my major point clear, I
never had the parking sticker in my
hand to Ipse it. The blue form states
that the university is not responsible
for stickers lost. Fine. But I never
received the sticker and was presented
no evidence to show whether the sticker
was sent or not. John R Wiuow
Anchor'didn't sink

Dear Editor
This letter is in response to the gross
misrepresentation of Delta Gamma
Sorority's Anchor Splash by staff writer
Tamara Toller. Ms. Toller's complete
unprofessiorialism in reporting the
event was shocking. In the first place,
she completely downplayed the purpose
of the event which was to raise money
for the blind. She neglected to make
note of the real talent and creativity
that flourished throughout thc competi¬
tion. There were tasteful skits and
clever talent depicted. Instead of
reporting on this, she concentrated on
attacking some comedy routines that
are very simiiiar to ones performed by
such greats as Robin Williams, Richard
Pryor and George Carlin. I guess Ms.
Toller doesn't get out much.
She also makes mention of boisterous
yelling of participants that a few Short
weeks ago was completely acceptable
and encouraged at our Homecoming
Rally, but she didn't criticize that
heavily Greek-supported event. /
It is almost unbelievable that some-
dfe could take such a just and worthy
cause and butcher its whole intent by
flagrant acts of yellow journalism. We
must question Ms. Toller.'s fairness in
reporting this event, as ?he is a member
of another sorority that has no such
event.
In any case such reporting is in¬
tolerable. In the future Ms. Toller
should stick to the facts and give an
accurate portrayal of events instead of
letting her envious nature and idio¬
syncrasies interfere with her reporting
the truth. We trust this is within Ms.
Toller's ability. Scott Shows
