1) is session management enabled in a <cfapplication> tag?
2) that's some ugly naming conventions right there. too many
variables with the same name.
3) why not just create the struct in the session?
<cfscript>
session.student = structNew();
session.student.name = "Fred";
</cfscript>
4) if you do plan on copying a local variable structure into another
scope (e.g. session), be aware that structs are copied by reference.
if you want a deep copy, you'll want the duplicate() function. e.g.
<cfscript>
variables.student = structNew();
session.student = duplicate(varibles.student);
</cfscript>
