May 15, 1981 California Baptist College Riverside, Ca. Grubb Clarifies New Financial Aid Cuts by Willie Tinsley A special meeting was held Monday for CBC students to inform, explain, advise, and encourage them on what to expect and how to cope with the cuts in financial aid. Walt Grubb, presented factual highlights of President Reagan's proposed cuts in government spending for education. He pointed out that some 75,000 college students will be effected in the first phase of the cuts, and 675,000 will be phased out by 1983. Pell Grants, NDSL, GSL and SSL are targeted for cuts. Loans will be based on the needs of the applicant. Reagan's proposed cuts will total a savings of 636 million, however, the budget is still under consideration. Grubb said that students are looking at a 10-40 percent cut equaling approximately $250 per individual. The maximum award will be $1,750. GSL interest rates may begin 60 days after the loan instead of six months. Change in Verteran's Insurance loans will be repaid with 5 percent interest. Parent loans, will be cut and the present interest rate invoked. Note, this system is not yet in California. Those 225,000 students receiving Social Security benefits will be cut 25% next year, and the same for the next three years. What can you do? Apply for guaranteed student loans this summer, get summer work, and spend less. Prioritize, Grubb added.

Creosote To Pup Fish by Margaret Thackeray Mr. Roth's Ecology class spent the weekend of May 1 in Death Valley witnessing for themselves the amazing contrasts God has created in this area. The purpose of the trip was to see the various communities, from creosote bush to pup fish, that the students have been studying. On Friday at 9:00 a.m., four vans loaded with passengers, cots and supplies left CBC campus. They returned with passengers exhausted, cots dirty and supplies diminished on Saturday at midnight. The group's first stop of Friday was Randsburg, an almost deserted town near Death Valley, where they ate sack lunches packed by the school's cafeteria. They then drove on toward the campsite, Mesquite Springs, stopping along the way to see such sights as the Sand Dunes, Devil's Cornfield, and a 3000 year old volcano called Ubehebe. Camping that night included things such as eating canned stew for dinner, sleeping on cots out under the stars, and a bird mistaking the hair of a sleeping student for its nest. Saturday included visiting a castle in the middle of the desert that was built in the 1920's, stopping at Badwater, the lowest point of elevation in the Western Hemisphere and walking over the 1000 foot deep, jagged salt of Devil's Golf Course. "The drive home was long and I got really sleepy," said Avis Young, one of the drivers, "but I'm really glad I went. Death Valley is beautiful.'' "The trip was well worth it," says another student, "I would like to go again next year.
