Sarah Palin, Please Donate your Speaking Fee to the CSUS Students for Scholarships!

"Mrs. Palin and the CSUS Foundation fail to acknowledge the dire fiscal situation that has affected all stakeholders of the CSU, most notably the students," said Patty Hughes of the Stanislaus County Democratic Central Committee wants Palin to donate her speaking fee.

"We encourage her and the CSUS Foundation to donate her speaking fee and all proceeds of the event to directly aid the students of CSUS by the way of scholarships or the like rather than to reward a polarizing figure in American politics and to hoard profits for an administration with questionable political motives."

It was only after this call to donate on the very morning of the event did the CSUS Foundation offer a one third percentage of the proceeds from the event for student scholarships.  The foundation seems to be benefiting off the university and the students if the majority goes to their foundation administration.
