urvival Tactics Financing college: an education in itself a Last spring term I worked two jobs: two nights on the graveyard shift for OSU security and as an Alpha Delta Pi houseboy. )) Mike Fnrace, Sophomore student in Liberal Arts Brent Hueth. freshman m science, works part-time at the Superette, a popular convenience store dose to campus, stating that working 10-15 hours only cuts into my TV time, not my study time. A college education was wonderful to have. For some, however, it was very difficult to achieve simply because the funds were not there. The majority of students financed their university education with a combination of financial aid, scholarships and work. Financial aid is nice to have but it's getting harder and harder to attain, insisted Andrea Steadman, a student who had difficulties obtaining her financial aid. I worked a regular 40 hour week this summer. However my schooling is paid for, I hope, by a GSL. I'm not sure because Guaranteed Student Loans are no longer guaranteed, said Libby Altstadt. Yet for some, working summers and part time during school was just not enough. Last spring term 1 worked two jobs: two nights on the graveyard shift for OSU security and as an Alpha Delta Pi house boy, said Mike Farace. My working totaled about 30 hours a week on top of 22 credit hours. Squad Leader for the Navy Drill Team, and a member of Alpha Sigma Phi. Susan Laird was another student in a similar situation. I was working for the Barometer, and the OSU Kerr Library'. 1 was working around 15 to 20 hours a week on top of 18 hours of school work. Scholarships were another way to pay for school. Football was authorized to give out 95 full rides. Men's and women's basketball were each allowed 15 full ride scholarships. Students with scholarships are under much pressure between performing and their studies. If they don't have to work, they probably won't, said Tom Dumont, with the Athletic office. There were not only sport-re- lated scholarships, but scholastic scholarships. 1 worked at the library around ten hours per week. That paid forspending money. I also have a Presidential scholarship which gives me SI,000 a year, plus it takes $333 off my tuition each term. My parents pay for room and board, and also the rest of the tuition that my scholarship doesn't pay for, said Patricia Rundt. Financial aid was given to at least 9,500 students annually. The financial assistance averaged $2,500 per student per year. During the 1985-86 school year approximately $24 million in assistance was provided. Sixty percent of OSU students received financial aid. Whether from loans, scholarships, working or just plain calling home to mom and dad, OSU students found financing college to be an education in itself. □ by Dannell Brown Another customer is helped by Brent Hueth and Mike Scott.
