Narrative:
Working ground control; noticed that numerous pilots did not understand the taxi to runway 15 via taxiway a and taxiway east. Pilots believe that a clearance to taxi to runway 15 allows them to cross runway 15. I had to stop 6 or 7 aircraft to stop before crossing runway 15. All of them were air carrier's.
