International (continued from page 1) increase has changed that plan. He says he may finish his mechanical en gineering degree in December and give up the other degree. He says if he were not going to graduate, he would transfer to an other university. However, he says he is aware that transferring is not a perfect solution, since many univer sities limit the number of credits that can be transferred. Many international students, whether they can cope with it or not, feel strongly against the tuition in crease. “If they need to increase, I’m sure they have their reasons,” Sophia Ilia- dou, president of the Hellinic Stu dents’ Association, says. “But they should inform people before they come here. “It’s difficult for people who are in the middle of their program, or close to graduation,” she says. “They’ve already planned their bud get. You estimate the inflation, but not the triple increase. It’s better to start from the freshmen.” Ahuya Camillus, former presi dent of the Kenyan Students Asso ciation, said, “That’s a terrible jump. Everyone is hard hit.” Some students who receive schol arships from their countries predict there may be fewer students coming to this campus from those countries. Camillus says the majority of Ke nyan students at A&M are oh gov ernment scholarships, so the govern ment is going to pay more to support the students here. “(In the future) the number of students that come here may decline because the government might not be able to send many students,” Camillus says. Arik Sadeh, president of the Is raeli Club, says, “When students in Israel consider where to go abroad to study, they consider the standard of living, tuition and the academic standard.” Sadeh, a graduate student in agri cultural economics, says he feels the increase in non-resident tuition would keep some Israeli students from coming to this campus. Iliodou agreed. “If I’m going to pay this much, I might as well go to universities on the west coast or go north,” she says. “A&M is a good university, but the location is isolated.” However, Iliadou sees one good result of the tuition increase. “Everyone is trying hard to get scholarships, either from the depart ment, or from his country,” Iliadou said. “One good side of the tuition increase is it makes people try harder, because they have to main tain good academic records.” “But then,” she said, “foreign stu dents try hard anyway.” Aerobics Instructor Training and Certification Call Fitness Services of Texas for Fall Workshop information 764-8259 a novel idea! f*' HALF PRICE BOOK§ RECORDS MAGAZINES New and used hardbacks, paperbacks, magazines, records and cassettes... all at half price or less. 3828 TEXAS AVENUE Bryan, Texas 846-2738 we buy and sell anything printed or recorded Delta Sigma Pi cordially invites all business students to experience fall rush 1995.
