A gathering with food, music and a torch-lighting to support two bills that would allow AB 540 college students to receive certain types of financial aid and fee waivers will take place from 4-8 p.m. on Friday, April 22 at Hillcrest Park, 1200 N. Harbor Blvd. in Fullerton.
(Note: The location was later changed to Pioneer Park in Anaheim, organizers said.)
The event is part of a 15-city tour of the torch, set to reach Sacramento in July. Speakers will call on state leaders to support the measures, and students will talk about how the bills, known as the California Dream Act, would affect them, said Ivan Ceja, an organizer and Fullerton College student.
