No state funds

Pinch hurts EOP aid
Information compiled by
La Voz de Aztlan Staff
In the Fall of 1971 new Educational Opportunity Program
enrollment at Fresno State College fell short of planned admission levels. Approximately
185 students were admitted to the
program, yet only 141 students
registered to attend classes. One
third to one half of those admitted students failing to register did so due to either insufficient total aid, or improper
financial aid package (i.e. students chose not to assume financial responsibility for a loan
program which was offered by the
Financial Aids Office at FSC in
place of grant funding).
The demographic characteristlcs of the new EOP students

is different from that ofprevious
groups because of reduced EOP
grant funds. Traditionally, EOP
students at FSC have been drawn
from the entire state; however,
in the Fall of 1971, nearly all
the new EOP students were drawn
from the FSC service area
(Bakersfield to the south, the central coast to the west, Stockton
to the north, and the central
mountain range to the east). Specifically, the students able to
enroll inFSC EOPwerethosewho
dwelt in close proximity to the
college and who would not suffer
unduly high costs for residence.
The limited financial resources of the Financial Aids Office
during the academic year 197172 dictated certain informal funding procedures for students in

need. Although no official FSC
ruling replaced the federal guidelines for grant administration,
the following schedule was initiated:
a. An annual fami'y income of
$6,000 became the functional cut-off point for consideration of EOP /EOG . funding.
b. A student with more than
$625 in resources for the
academic year from any
source was functionally ineligible of EOP/EOG funding.
The resources of the FSC Financial Aids Office were insufficient to fund students whose
family's annual income was much
more than $4,000. The renewal

~Open End' bill seeks to
place EOP on ·sfate budget
The "Open-End" Bill #1703
was written by Bill Gee and will
be introduced by Willie Brown's
office to the state legislature.
This bill established EOP as a
budget line item in Gov. Ronald
Reagan 's budget; thus removing
the danger of its elimination in
the future.
EOP students are organizing a
statewide letter-writing campaign in support of the •openEnd" Bill. They are asking their
relatives, friends, and those interested in equal opportunities in
education to support their campaign. The letters are to be sent
to legislators representing their
areas. Hopefully, the legislators
will in turn approach the legislature with positive support for the
•open-;.;;nd" Bill and the restoring of the state EOP funds.
We, the EOP students of Fresno State College, need your help!

Write to your state representatives and request their support
for the restoration of EOP funds
and the "Open-End" Bill. They
are our representatives and our
voice. Ask your fa mi 1 y and /
friends to write . Now is the time
for total involvement!

of EOP /EOG funds for continuing
and transfer EOP students severely limited the availabillty of ,
funds for the issuance of initial
EOP /EOG funds to new EOP
freshmen. Transfer and continuing EOP students who had not
previously received EOP /EOG
funds were not awarded initial
grants.
A significant number of EOP
students withdrew during the Fall
term lt)71 because they had received insufficient financial aid.
we also had figures that indicated
approximately 20 per cent of our
transfer EOP students did not
receive EOG grants because of
the need to transfer initial grant
funds to the renewal category.
This action also had the effect
of reducing the gross income of
our freshman EOP students. Our
figures indicate approximately 30
per cent of our freshman EOP
entering students did not receive
grant funds because of this reduction spoken of earlier.
The matching of Federal EOG
money with Work Study or loan
programs because EOP money
was not available, had - detrio,ental impact on continuing and
entering EOP students. The responsibility of the student on
Work Study limited the amount
of time the student could devote
to his studies while the loan program created a financial burden
which will psychologically plague
the student throughout the course
of his college study.
The EOP office at FSC does not
distribute funds to students in
need. That task is performed by
the Financial Aids Office. The
EOP office merely serves as an
advocate to procure financial aid
from that office for students enrolled in EOP. To the best ofour
knowledge, the financial aid packages offered to our students did
not fully meet their needs for the
academic year.
There is a "cumulative" aspect
to the problem of reduced funding.
EOP students shall, if the funding
problem remains constant over
the coming years, be obligated to
suffer severe indebtedness to finance their education. As EOP
students are usually •high-need"
students, this financial obligation
shall not be insignificant. This
situation will either, 1) dissuade
students from enrolling in EOP,
or 2) force them to withdraw before completing their co 11 e g e
course of study, or 3) burden them
with an unfair financial obligation
at graduation,

intense and urgent compulsion to
commemorate the heroic efforts
of these Mexican heroes among
which were Benito Juarez, Ignacio Zaragoza, Gonzales Ortega, and many others.
In the year 1862, Mexico's
President Benito Juarez was
faced with a tremendous national
debt and a treasury which consisted of very meager funds and
found it necessary to suspend
payment of the n a ti on a 1 debt.
Since the American Civil War 1
was in progress at this time, and
this in effect negated the pro- visions of the Monroe Doctrine,
Mexico's pr 1 n c i pa 1 creditors,
Spain, England and France, -attempted to take advantage of this
situation and under the pretense
of collecting a debt sought to impose a monarch of their own
choice upon a seemingly helpless
country.
Napoleon III of France during
this period, was faced with unrest
among his own French people,
and desperately was in need of a
victorious war in order to reassure his position as emperor of
France. He, therefore, made a
demand of a fantastic sum of
money (12 million pesos) upon
the Mexican government ·hoping
that Mexico would be ' unable to
pay and be forced to engage itself
in a war with all threecountries,
England, Spain and France;
whereupon France would ultimately emerge victorious. However, when England and Spain
realized that if they proceeded
as planned it would surely lead
to dangerous conflict with France,
decided it would not be worthLOCKSMITHS

while and abandoned the dangerous venture leaving France to
continue alone with its selfish
plans of conquest. For Napoleon
IIl was not only planning to build
himself an empire in Mexico,
but was actually looking ahead to
then aiding the Southern States in
their fight against the North in
order to procure the south's cotton which was much needed by
France, and possibly had visions
of later building a French Empire in North America as well.
But Napoleon III was not destined to see his visions of grandeur materialize. As General
Laurencez arrived from France
with a large army, Napoleon Ill
sent one of his emissaries to
set up a provisional government
in Mexico, with himself as emperor, and proceeded in commanding the F'rench army to occupy Mexico City.
The Fre1:_1ch General, a proud
and glorified officer and veteran
of many great victories, had only
contempt for General Ignacio
Zaragoza and his •lowly" Mexi:..
can army that awaited the
French's "superior" forces in
Puebla. On that historic day May
5, 1862, the French General gave
the order to attack Puebla, and
to ridicule the Mexicans' raggedy
troops, who were mostly equipped
with antiquated guns, directed his
attack to the middle of the Mexican defense which was General
Zaragoza's strongest pasition.
After three bloody assaults upon
P_uebla (in which over a thousand
gallant Frenchmen futilely lost
their lives) the once handsomely
uniformed French troops were
finally defeated, and humiliated,
were driven back by the outnumbered Mexican troops. The courageous and heroic spirit that
General Zaragoza and his men
displayed during this historic
battle can never be forgotten.
The battle of Ctrico de Mayo in
which many brave Mexicans will ..
ingly gave their Ii ves for the
cause of justice and freedom, was
inst r u m en t a 1 in keeping the
Americans from once again fall.:
ing under complete European
control. For this reason, in commemoration and in honor of our
undaunted Mexican ancestors who
gave so much of themselves in
order that we remain j.ree, on

No state funds

Pinch hurts EOP aid
Information compiled by
La Voz de Aztlan Staff
In the Fall of 1971 new Educational Opportunity Program
enrollment at Fresno State College fell short of planned admission levels. Approximately
185 students were admitted to the
program, yet only 141 students
registered to attend classes. One
third to one half of those admitted students failing to register did so due to either insufficient total aid, or improper
financial aid package (i.e. students chose not to assume financial responsibility for a loan
program which was offered by the
Financial Aids Office at FSC in
place of grant funding).
The demographic characteristlcs of the new EOP students

is different from that ofprevious
groups because of reduced EOP
grant funds. Traditionally, EOP
students at FSC have been drawn
from the entire state; however,
in the Fall of 1971, nearly all
the new EOP students were drawn
from the FSC service area
(Bakersfield to the south, the central coast to the west, Stockton
to the north, and the central
mountain range to the east). Specifically, the students able to
enroll inFSC EOPwerethosewho
dwelt in close proximity to the
college and who would not suffer
unduly high costs for residence.
The limited financial resources of the Financial Aids Office
during the academic year 197172 dictated certain informal funding procedures for students in

need. Although no official FSC
ruling replaced the federal guidelines for grant administration,
the following schedule was initiated:
a. An annual fami'y income of
$6,000 became the functional cut-off point for consideration of EOP /EOG . funding.
b. A student with more than
$625 in resources for the
academic year from any
source was functionally ineligible of EOP/EOG funding.
The resources of the FSC Financial Aids Office were insufficient to fund students whose
family's annual income was much
more than $4,000. The renewal

~Open End' bill seeks to
place EOP on ·sfate budget
The "Open-End" Bill #1703
was written by Bill Gee and will
be introduced by Willie Brown's
office to the state legislature.
This bill established EOP as a
budget line item in Gov. Ronald
Reagan 's budget; thus removing
the danger of its elimination in
the future.
EOP students are organizing a
statewide letter-writing campaign in support of the •openEnd" Bill. They are asking their
relatives, friends, and those interested in equal opportunities in
education to support their campaign. The letters are to be sent
to legislators representing their
areas. Hopefully, the legislators
will in turn approach the legislature with positive support for the
•open-;.;;nd" Bill and the restoring of the state EOP funds.
We, the EOP students of Fresno State College, need your help!

Write to your state representatives and request their support
for the restoration of EOP funds
and the "Open-End" Bill. They
are our representatives and our
voice. Ask your fa mi 1 y and /

of EOP /EOG funds for continuing
and transfer EOP students severely limited the availabillty of ,
funds for the issuance of initial
EOP /EOG funds to new EOP
freshmen. Transfer and continuing EOP students who had not
previously received EOP /EOG
funds were not awarded initial
grants.
A significant number of EOP
students withdrew during the Fall
term lt)71 because they had received insufficient financial aid.
we also had figures that indicated
approximately 20 per cent of our
transfer EOP students did not
receive EOG grants because of
the need to transfer initial grant
funds to the renewal category.
This action also had the effect
of reducing the gross income of
our freshman EOP students. Our
figures indicate approximately 30
per cent of our freshman EOP
entering students did not receive
grant funds because of this reduction spoken of earlier.
The matching of Federal EOG
money with Work Study or loan
programs because EOP money
was not available, had - detrio,ental impact on continuing and
entering EOP students. The responsibility of the student on
Work Study limited the amount
of time the student could devote
to his studies while the loan program created a financial burden
which will psychologically plague
the student throughout the course
of his college study.
The EOP office at FSC does not
distribute funds to students in
need. That task is performed by
the Financial Aids Office. The
EOP office merely serves as an
advocate to procure financial aid
from that office for students enrolled in EOP. To the best ofour
knowledge, the financial aid packages offered to our students did
not fully meet their needs for the
academic year.
There is a "cumulative" aspect
to the problem of reduced funding.
EOP students shall, if the funding
problem remains constant over
the coming years, be obligated to
suffer severe indebtedness to finance their education. As EOP
students are usually •high-need"
students, this financial obligation
shall not be insignificant. This
situation will either, 1) dissuade
students from enrolling in EOP,
or 2) force them to withdraw before completing their co 11 e g e
course of study, or 3) burden them
with an unfair financial obligation

intense and urgent compulsion to
commemorate the heroic efforts
of these Mexican heroes among
which were Benito Juarez, Ignacio Zaragoza, Gonzales Ortega, and many others.
In the year 1862, Mexico's
President Benito Juarez was
faced with a tremendous national
debt and a treasury which consisted of very meager funds and
found it necessary to suspend
payment of the n a ti on a 1 debt.
Since the American Civil War 1
was in progress at this time, and
this in effect negated the pro- visions of the Monroe Doctrine,
Mexico's pr 1 n c i pa 1 creditors,
Spain, England and France, -attempted to take advantage of this
situation and under the pretense
of collecting a debt sought to impose a monarch of their own
choice upon a seemingly helpless
country.
Napoleon III of France during
this period, was faced with unrest
among his own French people,
and desperately was in need of a
victorious war in order to reassure his position as emperor of
France. He, therefore, made a
demand of a fantastic sum of
money (12 million pesos) upon
the Mexican government ·hoping
that Mexico would be ' unable to
pay and be forced to engage itself
in a war with all threecountries,
England, Spain and France;
whereupon France would ultimately emerge victorious. However, when England and Spain
realized that if they proceeded
as planned it would surely lead
to dangerous conflict with France,

while and abandoned the dangerous venture leaving France to
continue alone with its selfish
plans of conquest. For Napoleon
IIl was not only planning to build
himself an empire in Mexico,
but was actually looking ahead to
then aiding the Southern States in
their fight against the North in
order to procure the south's cotton which was much needed by
France, and possibly had visions
of later building a French Empire in North America as well.
But Napoleon III was not destined to see his visions of grandeur materialize. As General
Laurencez arrived from France
with a large army, Napoleon Ill
sent one of his emissaries to
set up a provisional government
in Mexico, with himself as emperor, and proceeded in commanding the F'rench army to occupy Mexico City.
The Fre1:_1ch General, a proud
and glorified officer and veteran
of many great victories, had only
contempt for General Ignacio
Zaragoza and his •lowly" Mexi:..
can army that awaited the
French's "superior" forces in
Puebla. On that historic day May
5, 1862, the French General gave
the order to attack Puebla, and
to ridicule the Mexicans' raggedy
troops, who were mostly equipped
with antiquated guns, directed his
attack to the middle of the Mexican defense which was General
Zaragoza's strongest pasition.
After three bloody assaults upon
P_uebla (in which over a thousand
gallant Frenchmen futilely lost
their lives) the once handsomely
uniformed French troops were
finally defeated, and humiliated,
were driven back by the outnumbered Mexican troops. The courageous and heroic spirit that
General Zaragoza and his men
displayed during this historic
battle can never be forgotten.
The battle of Ctrico de Mayo in
which many brave Mexicans will ..
ingly gave their Ii ves for the
