campus
recognition
By Debbie Richards
COLLEGIAN STAFF WRITER
A group of conservative students who feel they have
been neglected by the liberal university atmosphere Is
trying to form a campus chapter ofYoung Americans for
Freedom (YAF).
Although YAF has not been recognized by the Stu -
dent Activities office, notice has been taken of them on
campus. The group has been called 'racist and bigoted*
and has been accused of distributing hate literature on
campus.
The group hopes to dispel what they say are rumors
spread by their opposition, but wants to do so In a
positive manner.
"WeVe been getting so much bad publicity that
people now don't want us on campus.* said Paul
Kunkel. president of YAF. "We need to combat that
negative image.*
At the Oct 16 ASI meeting. President Don Daves
called the group "racist and bigoted.* Assistant to
President Harold Haak Alex Gonzalez was also quoted
in The Fresno Bee saying he had heard YAF had been
aligned with skinhead groups. f
Daves would not comment last week about his
allegations about YAF. Gonzalez said he was quoted out
of context in the article and actually has "no concern"
about the formation of a YAF chapter on campus.
A national, conservative, non-partisan youth group.
YAF was founded in 1960 by William F. Buckley, the
editor of the conservative magazine The National Re¬
view" and host of PBS's The Firing Line."
The valued ideals of the group are the right to keep
and bear arms, the promotion of strong police atnd
military forces, a laissez-faire government and free
enterprise. Their honorary chair is Ronald Reagan.
YAF has petitioned the student activities office for
official recognition and hopes to meet with Program
Adviser Gary Nelson this week to finalize their
constltuu-n and obtain official recognition as a cam¬
pus group.
Kunkel said their "opposition." who they refuse to
name, has resorted to mudsllnglng to try and dislodge

star-watching party Friday at the
Discovery Center In Fresno.
The event which was open to the

the dub.
Ten telescopes were set up on the
grassy area outside the center, lo¬
cated at 1944 N. Winery Ave., for
viewing of various plane Is and gal ax¬
les. Refreshments were available and
a slide show was shown shortly after
the event began.
"Wow," said 6-year-old Michael
Bergeman of Clevis, "I can even see
the rings around Saturn." Michael
had viewed pictures of the planets

through a telescope before. 1 know
Saturn Is the one with the rings
around it, though."
