CFPS provides
students help
finding funding
By Andrea Warrenburg
Of The Battalion Staff
As the cost of college tuition con
tinues to skyrocket, students are
Finding that financial aid is becom
ing more necessary than optional.
The College Financial Planning
Service hopes to help students Fill
their Financial needs.
CFPS is a private company that
provides students with listings of
available grants, scholarships and
loans that goes beyond what the col
lege financial aid offices have to of
fer.
“Our services do not overlap with
the financial aid offices,” Larry Or
gan, president of CFPS said. “We are
a supplemental source to what they
offer.”
The planning service has a na
tional database of more than
180,000 awards. Unlike federal and
state awards available through the fi
nancial aid offices, the awards listed
in CFPS come from donations from
corporations, philanthropic organi
zations, religious groups and indi
viduals.
The awards are 90 percent schol
arships and grants and 10 percent
loans, Organ said.
The awards are non-need awards
based on academic interests, career
plans, family heritage and place of
residence.
“It frustrates me that people say
they don’t have any money to go to
school because there is so much
money out there to be awarded
based on so many different things,”
Organ said.
A student can enter the program
by calling 1-800-346-6401 and re
questing a student data form. It must
be completed and sent to CFPS with
a $45 fee.
In about two weeks, the student
will receive a printout of financial
aid resources matching their back
ground.
If the student uses the service, ap
plies, and does not receive an award,
the $45 fee will be refunded.
“There is no such thing as a stu
dent with too much money — so ev
ery little bit counts,” Organ said.
“If a student is diligent and makes
an effort to apply, he will be success
ful,” he said.

Residents of Ku Klux Klan birth placi
struggle with white supremacist past
PULASKI, Tenn. (AP) — Strip away the
orange ribbons, and Pulaski’s courthouse square
could be a movie set for an archetypal Southern
town, where a Confederate hero stands on a ped
estal and pickup trucks sport Dixie flags.
But the orange “brotherhood color” affixed to
storefronts, lampposts, car antennas and coat
lapels is meant to make sure no one confuses Pu
laski residents with the white supremacists who
plan to march through town Saturday.
“These people are outsiders and this county is
a victim of rape by these groups,” said author
Gregory Mcdonald, who owns a farm in the area
and helped organize the anti-march campaign.
Restaurants, stores and markets have agreed
to close for the day throughout the town of about
8,000 people 90 miles south of Nashville. Resi
dents have been asked to stay off the streets, and
churches have planned activities to keep children
and teen-agers away from downtown.
The racists are attracted to Pulaski by the
town’s role in the history of the Ku Klux Klan.
The group was founded in Pulaski in 1865 as a
reaction to what community leaders saw as a
threat by carpetbaggers and former slaves after
the Civil War.
It was disbanded four years later after the Leg
islature passed an anti-Klan law. The modern
Klan was formed outside Atlanta in 1915 by a
former minister who added Jews and Catholics to
the group’s list of enemies.
The Klan began marching in Pulaski annually
in 1986 to protest the Martin Luther King na
tional holiday.
fifiT
I hese people are outsiders and
this county is a victim of rape by
these groups.”
— Gregory Mcdonald,
Author
The parades typically draw fewer than 100
marchers. Community leaders say as long as the
racists obtain the proper permits and follow
other rules they can’t be stopped.
“It started out as 35 to 40 old boys putting on
their bed sheets and marching around the square
haranguing,” Mcdonald, author of the “Fletch”
mystery novels, said. “These people considered
the town’s silence tacit approval. Nothing could
be further from the truth.”
Town leaders decided it was time to act when
the Aryan Nations of Hayden Lake, I(
nounced plans to march here this year.
The group advocates the formation!
whites-only country. Ten members of an t
Nations splinter group were convicted ofn
teering in 1985 in a plot to overthrow tk
government that involved murder, bankroll f
and armed confrontations.
“We’re just not going to let our town ben
over by bigots and hate mongers,” Bettie'
gins, director of the Chamber of Con®
said.
Both sides claim Pulaski’s Civil War hero,i
Davis, a 21-year-old Confederate scoutvLw
hanged after refusing to reveal the name of ij
bel spy. Higgins helped wire an orangewreif
the hands of a statue of Davis on the towns
The white supremacists will lay a wreath also |
“He’s our only hero, and they want lo j
him,” Higgins said.
The Rev. Richard G. Butler, pastor oil
Church of Jesus Christ Christian-AryanM I
said the march was set on the day after fj
birthday to honor “white heroes.”
“Sam Davis was a hero of our people;
body has ever honored him," Butler said.
