1983_01 The Daily Collegian January 1983

              Fee
Con-nuad from paga 1
The Daily Collegian survey found the
lowest fees at the Stanislaus campus,
which reported a spnng semester cost of
$269.
CSUF fees have increased markedly
since 1976 when they averaged $97.50 per
semester, according to CSUF President
Harold Haak. System-wide, they now
average $284, he said at a press confer-'
ence last week.
Tuition and fees at public four-year col¬
leges average $979 for 1982-83, according
to a national survey by the College Scho¬
larship Service.
Haak said some programs will be cut,
some employees will not be rehired and
some vacancies won't be filled in an effort
to offset CSUF's $350,122 budget cut.
Haak also said no full time employees will
be laid off
The president expressed concern for
the quality of education in the CSU
system.
"Budget cuts have a negative impact on
quality," Haak said "1 supported the fee
increase because we are down to the
point where any further reductions could
cause significanl negative impact on the
program "
Associated Studenls President Paul
Canales also expressed concert for the
"Somewhere along the line we will be
talking quality or access," Canales said
"If we don't have quality in ihe system, the
whole thing is shot. But we have a Iradi
tion in the state of California of low cost
higher education and I think that has to
it a press conference held last week.
Canales questioned  Gov    Duekme
"Before he was governor he said he was
tired ol the state balanc ing Ihe budget on
the backs of state employees and stu¬
dents, so what is he doing'"
CSU Chancellor W Ann Reynolds
called the increase "short sighted" and
said it would "create a hardship for large
numbers of students ol the California
State University."
Reynolds also said the increase is "con
trary to prior statements of legislative
intent which were wisely and widely con
"In budget language incorporated into
the 1982-83 budget document, the Legis¬
lature made a special point of slating its
belief that in any consideration of possible
fee increases, such fees 'should be grad
ual. moderate and predictable,"' Rey
nolds said.
"However, a $230fee increase for 1983
84 is not gradual, can noi be considered
moderate, and certainly was shockingly
unpredicted." she said.
Reynolds also expressed concern thai
future students will not receive the same
quality of education as those in the past
because of cutbacks in the system.
Cutting out classes is now part of the
problems that CSUF administrators face,
said Helen Gigiotti, assistant vice presi¬
dent for academic affairs.
She said the cutbacks might mean
larger classes because fewer sections of
some courses will be offered.
Gigiotti said she did not expect any
students to have to delay graduation
plans because of the program cutbacks.
However, William Crist, president of
the Congress of Faculty Association, told
the Board of Trustees that "any reduction
in the number of faculty positions at this
time will result in reducing the number of
classes available lo studenls, thereby de
laying planned graduation dates."
CSUF Budget Director Bill Coughran
said the administration is trying not to cut
back on classes but if they have to, they
will "probably not be cutting classes that
affect large number of students."
The administration is also trying to
make the fee increase more bearable by
the students, Haak said.
He said all students currently on institu¬
tional financial aid will be covered for the
Students who have received a Guaran
teed Student Loan have an emergency
loan fund of $100,000 available, Haak
He also said other students may qualify
for loans.

Tuition
ConrJnuad from paoa 1
hard hit by a"$50 tuition.
"It is going to make a difference,"
Gerard said. "Those students qualified
for financial aid will get money if it is avail¬
able. But for that large group in the middle
— those trying to make it on their own
-certainly it w_ hurt."
Under the Deukmejian plan, revenue
raised by the tuition would not supple¬
ment existing funds but would replace
money cut from the education budget for
use elsewhere.
The Board of Governors of the Califor¬
nia Community Colleges recommended
Dec. 10 t,hat no tuition be charged after
being asked by the Legislature under
former Gov. Brown to devise a plan to
save the financially strapped system.
Though the board opposed across-the-
board tuition, it said the fiscal crisis had
grown severe enough to charge tuition to
students'already. possessing degrees.
The board also said' that should the
Legislature impose tuition, it should be
limited to the 1983-84 school year and be
an "emergency" solution. The imposition
of tuition must be accompanied by finan-
c'lal aid programs for those students
unable to pay added costs, the Board of
Governors recommended.
The Legislature is not bound by the
Board of Governors' recommendations.
And the conservative Deukmejian has
long believed students should contribute
Pat Andrews, leader of the Fresno City
College group Students Against Tuition,
said she is "completely appalled" by the
Deukmejian proposal.
"We feel the monies being spent are not
being spent correctly," Andrews said.
The fat needs to be cut from the top, at
the administrative level, but they're not
having to deal with cutbacks."
The group unsuccessfully fought an
nstructional materials fee that was pro¬
posed last spring. Beginning this semes¬
ter, Fresno CitV College students must
pay for the materials used in the class¬
room or laboratory. Most classes cost
about $2 and the maximum the student
can pay is $30 a semester.
"We said that if the instructional mate-
rials fee was allowed to pass the next thing
[hey would ask for was a tuition,"
Andre
"Free education is a right," she said.
"People deserve to go to college. I saw
people walk away crying because they
couldn't pay the fees. This is a war of the
classes. The poor are not being given a
chance to be educated."
Andrews said she fears that once any
kind of fee is imposed, the Legislature will
always raise the amount when revenue is
needed quickly. "When fees are imple¬
mented at any level it can only go up," she
The battle in the Legislature is ex¬
pected to be tough. John Ryles, spokes¬
man for State Senator Ken Maddy, said
the Senator "has always opposed tuition.-
..but tends to agree on increases in fees
where it is needed."
Ryles said Maddy is solidly alligned with
Deukmejian, however, and will support
him during the upcoming budget battle.

"The two governing boards reaffirm the
long established principle that state col¬
leges and the University of California shall
be  tuition-free  to all  residents of  the
Roth said he objects to the act not only
because it violates state law, but also
because it was done without public
debate and it affects students exclusively.
"None of this has been discussed in the
legislature," Roth said. "They've just
treated a tax out of the clear, blue sky on
students. All of a sudden, without any
public debate, we have a tuition policy."
The administration calls the $64 in¬
crease a fee, rather than tuition, said
Richardsjof the CSSA lobbying organiza¬
tion in Sacramento.
"The system claims that none of that
money is being used for tuition —- the cost
of instruction," Richards said.
When asked if the increase was a fee or
if it constituted tuition, an attorney for the
Chancellor's office had no comment.
He also refused comment on the valid¬
ity of the class action suit filed in San
Diego by DeKoven.
Roth believes that students could sue
the state of California over the increase.
"It is illegal, but who is going to sue the
state of California for $64?' Roth asked.
Roth said he is not categorically op¬
posed to tuition, but objects to the way in
which the current fee increase was
handled by the Board of Trustees.
"What we're engaged in is a violation of
public policy," Roth said. "There ought to
be a bill in the public legislature.and let it
be debated in public; but don't slip it in
behind the door and lay it on the kids. It's
bad government. It teaches disrespect for
government."
