Leah's Voice

 

How have increased tuition fees impacted you and your family?:
My parents are working two jobs each to put both my brother and I through school. We can't even qualify for financial aid because we didn't meet the cut off. Now I am forced to take out private loans that will take me 10 years to pay off.

 

What are you studying at SF State and what do you hope to do once you graduate?:
I am a "Pre-Apparel Design and Merchandising student" and SFSU. I want to do environmentally-free and organic clothing displays and influence large companies to go Green.
