Student interns help out at hospital
By Judy Prentice
Their professors are medical
doctors with years of experiences
and training behind them. Their
textbooks are lab charts. Their
classroom is the new 11-story St.
Peter Hospital in Olympia.
"They" are nine student
interns from Evergreen and their
career goals are all related, in
some way, to medicine .
Each wan ted to have a taste of
the real world of a hospital, of
doctor's daily routine and of
devoting their working hours to
helping others.
The exposure has deepened
the students' understanding of
medicine and , for some, has
drastically changed their future
plans.
Joy Van Camp , from Spokane ,
said she originally wanted to be
an actress. A serious student in
high school , Van Camp shied
away from science courses to
protect her grade point average.
"At Evergreen , I decided to
take some science studies and
found out I was more capable
than I thought ," Van Camp said .
Interested in medicine, she
added , "I'd always thought only
men were doctors but wanted to
see if I could handle working in a
hospital."
Assigned to Dr. · Philip
Vandemann, a pediatrician, Van
Camp worked as his shadow,
following him on hospital rounds,
helping him at a local clinic, and
assisting in patient care.
"I've learned that I .really do
.want to be a doctor - a
gynecologist," she said. "Equally
important, I've leaned that a
doctor has to be continually
aware of what patients are
thinking. You can't disregard
their feelings and expect good
results from their treatments."
Eight other students are also
working at St. Peter through the
Evergreen Office of Cooperative

Education. Their experiences
range from assisting in the
Emergency Room to working
with a dietician, from
photographing hospital activities
for a slide/tape program to
conducting diagnostic research
for future computer
programming.
"Learning something new
every day" is the only routine
Joe Bushnell, a third-quarter
Evergreener from Gig Harbor, has
discovered in the Emergency
Room.
"My main job is keeping up
with the flow of patients in ER,"
Bushnell said. "But I've had a
chance to assist in handling
everything from severe
lacerations to delivering a baby in
the hospital parking lot."
Bushnell, who plans to
become a doctor of emergency
medicine, said he's gained
experience in taking vital signs
and in admitting and preparing
patients. "I've found that
handling physical problems is
exciting, but I'm most touched
by the psychological problems
persons face in an emergency."
"Joe is one of the few
students we've allowed to work

in ER," Barbara Soule,
coordinator of in-service
education for St. Peter, said. "He

has experience as a fireman, and
holds advanced certificates for
Red Cross First Aid Training and
Industrial First Aid.
Soule, who coordinates the
study programs of all the
Evergreen interns, said "Many of
the students provide a real
service. They complete a wide
variety of tasks and supplement
nursing care by taking the extra
time that nurses seldom have to
talk to patients."
"In short ," she added, "They
provide that extra helping hand
we so often need - and they get
a good practical education in the
process."
Gaining skill at offering that
helping hand is Richard Cohen,
an Olympian who says he spends
his spare minutes visiting with
elderly patients and taking them
for afternoon strolls.
Cohen, who is working as a
nurses' aide and plans to become
a doctor, said his internship has
taught him that "nurses really
deserve a lot of respect. I've also
found out that, for me, working
in a hospital is _really a very
satisfying thing.
"The greatest satisfaction
comes from watching patients
progress from the time they enter
the hospital until they're ready to
leave."
Not all the Evergreeners
working at St. Peter are planning
to be physicians.
Janet Copeland, an Olympian,
wants to be a dietician. St. Peter
has provided her the opportunity
to work with Rita Sinka, hospital
dietician, and to personally help
patients plan their diets.
Copeland works at the
hospital five hours a week as a
supplement to her academic
work, which includes three
part-time study programs - in
pre-calculus, physiology and
nutrition.

Health Services
gets new doctors
By Sheila Lundin
While college physician Dr.
David Peterson is climbing Mt.
Dhaulagiri in Nepal, two doctors
are sharing the work part-time in
Health Services at Evergreen. Dr.
Ernest Ager, who has practiced
medicine in Olympia for 12
years, is a family physician
specializing in Pediatrics. Dr.
Robert Murphy, also in
Pediatrics, has practiced in
Olympia for four years, and was
at one time State Health Director
of Crippled Children Services.
Both doctors enjoy working
with Health Services, and feel
that students are frank and
informal about their medical
problems. Dr. Ager has "the
distinct impression the students
are grateful." Dr. Murphy says
that he likes "being associated
with the folks. They are
inquisitive about their personal
problems, and are interested in

the therapeutic treatment."
The doctors see the need for
expansion in Health Service
facilities, especially in the
laboratory department. They
would also welcome a full-time
staff and better access to hospital
facilities when the need arises.
"Health Services at Evergreen is
more like a first aid," sayd Dr.
Ager.
Dave Peterson, member of a
16-man American climbing
expedition, should be reaching
the 26,795 summit of Dhaulagiri
sometime this week. He said in
March that "with a lot of luck,
good weather, and healthy people
we could be on the summit by
the end of the first week of May.
Without all of the above, we may
get no higher than 25 ,000 feet or
so by the end of the whole
thing."
Dr. Peterson plans to be back
in the United States by the
middle ofJune.

Gov. Evans praises TESC

GOV. DAN EVANS (Photo by Blomgren)

Governor Daniel J. Evans, now in his third term, was interviewed
earlier this week by veteran Paper reporter Tom Sampson Although a
Republican, Evans is felt by many to be a liberal and has spoken out for
19-year-old drinking, and abolition of the death penalty.
He has also been a strong supporter of Evergreen since its
conception.
SAMPSON: "Governor, you have a reputation at Evergreen for being
a strong supporter of the college. Why do you support The Evergreen
College so strongly?"
EVANS: "Well, I think it goes back to the origin of Evergreen. I
served on the Higher Education Committee of the legislature before
becoming Governor, and had a particular interest in education. I was
intrigued by the thought that we could, for the first time in 75 years in
this state, create a new college which was in a somewhat different mold,
perhaps even no mold, a place that would offer a new kind of
educational experience to students both from Washington and outside
the state of Washington.
"I think once we made a decision like that, which the legislature made
about six years ago, then we ought to have the willingness to give a full
opportunity for a new college like this to succeed. That's why I've been
very distressed at the unwillingness of the legislature to continue the
commitment that they initially made to Evergreen.
"I think it's very foolish for them to cut back to the extent they did,
and in doing so limit the growth of Evergreen and make it impossible to
retain the strength of a core teaching and administrative body so that
we could then add more students, and not take advantage of the initial
investment in the college by allowing it to continue growing at a
reasonable pace is wrong.
"I'm delighted with what's occurring at Evergreen I think Evergreen

who has the ability to guide himself, someone who has the initiative to
know what he wants and work independently.
"I don't think we ought to make every college a mirror image of
every other college. I think that to make Evergreen like the other. state
colleges would be a bad mistake."
SAMPSON: "There has been a trend nationally on placing more and
'11tore of the butden of college education Qll"'tl\t student. HOw will this
affect minority and middle-income students?"
EVANS: "I think we are facing a problem in finding a right way to
finance college education. It's not difficult just for minority or
low-income people. When I see the cost of a college education
escalating the way it is, and realize that my youngsters are half a dozen
or so years away from a college education, I begin to scratch my head
over the financing of a college education.
"I think that we will have to conduct some experiments in the
country on various methods of financing college education, perhaps
asking those who receive the direct benefit of a college education to
bear more of the burden but do so in a way that all could take part. A
system of borrowing or loans is one method for college students to
finance their education, paying for it after they graduate and have a
job.
"I do think that tuition raises must be a safety value which would
allow those who simply have no way of gaining those resources to have
a chance to compete and a chance to go to the university or college of
their choice. A couple of years ago, I wanted to see the legislature
expand the number of students for whom you could waive tuitions to
six per cent of the total student body but the legislature wouldn't
approve that much."
SAMPSON: "How do you feel about lowering or eliminating out of
state tuition? What fiscal impact would this have on higher education
budgeting?"
EVANS: "Virtually every state has this problem. Elimination of out

program in the teaching of math,
science, reading and the arts.

$51 ,000 and a good chance of a
federal grant of $10,000. Their
major problem is the lack of

Watergate
There have been other cases of presidential scandal before
Watergate and will most likely be others after it, but
Watergate and the rest of the political espionage of the Nixon
administration is particularly shaking for a number of
reasons. The political corruption in this case has not been for
private gain but to influence the outcome of an election.
When those who are assigned to execute the laws break them
then the whole basis of our government system is in serious
trouble. This shakes the very foundation of our
representative democracy.
President Nixon throughout his term of office has made it
a specific policy to draw power away from the Congress and
centralize it in the executive branch.
Now with a shakeup in the administration, a dark shadow
drawn over the validity of the last election and the possibility
of an impeachment or resignation, the Executive branch is
floundering. It is shifting administrative staff positions,
turning more and more power over to the military, and
apparently counting on the beaueaucracy to run itsel(.for a
while.
The press was responsible for uncovering this mess. Eric
Severeid has commented that the press has never overthrown
a government, although corrupt politicians have. He might be
wrong - they seem to have undermined this one ... though
deservedly so.
Not just Nixon - but our whole government has been
wounded - and one senses that before this Watergate scandal
is through the entire fragile balance of our republic may be
called into question.

Guest editorial:

By Nina DeVoe

"THE MEDIUM IS THE MESSAGE AND THE MESSAGE
IS WHITE ... " Typical of U.S. institutions, prime example
The Evergreen State College, THE PAPER is also going
through a series of power "reorganizations." (So much for
the changes... you don't get paid for it anyway). But it is not
for the minorities of this community to be greatly concerned
with those changes. Our task is to remain as far removed
from the clashes of bureaucracy as possible and to express
ourselves!
This is a plea to minority persons to contribute to THE
PAPER.
It is necessary to strive for developing a news media which
forms the truth as we understand it, in writing in our own
cultural character and context. We must take, "the watch dog
of public interest and champion of unpopular viewpoint"
(read ... newspapers) and establish a system of weighing
suppressive flattery coverage, and indifference to the
problems of the minority communities.
Community Is Communication. Minorities are different in
many perspectives and should project their difference with
more communication. We must reshape THE PAPER, which
is mostly intended for white audiences, into one of
multi-ethnic complexities.
Presently minority input is low and rarely expressed. This
has counter-implications in tliat minority input is, at best,
not even news-worthy. Rather than taking occasional flattery
coverage as new-found media concern or as victory for the
moment, it might be necessary for us to discipline ourselves
to deal with the isolation and lack of exposure as a dangerous
impact on the liberation struggle of our communities.

Reorganization
Dear Evergreeners:
Reorganization is well
under way. It would be
surprising, however, if, after
so traumatic an event, some
questions didn't remain
about the factors requiring
reorganization, my actions,
or their timing. I should be
pleased to discuss the facts as
I have known them with any
of you who may still have
residual questions, either
individually or in groups as
time permits.

stipulated in our original
Group Contract, we are
reorganizing ourselves and
plan to resume broadcasts
starting Thursday, May 10, at

We hope that other
members of the group

people in the campus
community will join us in
developing a vital video

The following letter is reprinted

his legislative colleagues last

week that Evergreen State

I hadn't realized that the

full of poets. We see them
sneaking around behind
rhododendron bushes,
feathered quills in hand,
scribbling down obscure and
probably obscene notes on
dirty old tom lunch bags.
I myself am not now nor
have I ever been a poet. Poets
don't do anything. They
drink a lot and never stop
talking and live abnormal
lives. They sit around and
stare at the flowers and the
sky and the mountains and
things like that.
They don't build splendid

Secrecy surrounds
U.S. Cambodian involvement
Lately, I have been following
Nixon's untenable position in
Cambodia and am not surprised
at his familiar pattern of
misrepresentation of the facts.
Again •we are supporting a
corrupt dictator by massive,
illegal bombing. The reasoning is
again faulty
Nixon is
BOMBING Cambodia to insure
full compliance with the PEACE
agreement.
You will recall that it was the
invasion of Cambodia in 1970
which touched off the mass
student demonstrations, strikes,
and the subsequent murders at

Kent State. Further, it officially
spread the war to all of Indochina
and resulted in the toppling of
the neutral government in
Cambodia. With the help of the
CIA, the U.S. military was able to
depose Prince Norodom
Sihanouk and replace him with
dictator Lon Nol, who was closer
to the military and economic
needs of the United States.
Opposition to Lon Nol grew
rapidly. His economic poiicles
were disastrous to the country,
soon led to rampant inflation,
workers' demonstrations, strikes
and finally total economic

Teaching
television
Why is it that Evergreen's
$210,000 worth of studio
television equipment sits idle as
much as 80 per cent of the time?
Why is it that students seeking
instruction in television
production have repeatedly been
turned down by the academic
deans? Why are the college's
production needs being
inadequately met?
After spending many, many
hours searching for a good answer
to these questions I have found
that none exists. Bad answers are
in abundance. There has been a
false distinction made between
production and education use of
the facility. There has been a
tragic lack of planning; and there
has been a destructive barrier
between the library group and
the academic area.
At present the college employs
three staff members who are
responsible for video production
needs. On numerous occasions
students have negotiated learning
contracts in television with these
staff members. All but a very few
of these contracts have been
killed by the library
administration or the academic
deans - the rationale being that
the staff is too busy with
production needs to teach.
This rationale has somehow
survived repeated staff asertions
that they cannot function fully
without trained student help. It
still takes six bodies to form a
T.V. production crew.
According to Chuck Davies,
part-time faculty and staff in
media, "We have the time, but
it's a question of the deans and
library administration saying they
want educational instruction in
media. We want to do that."
The Evergreen faculty
presently includes two individuals
who are qualified to provide
instruction in the use of the
studio television equipment, but
they are doing other things.
Since the beginning of this
year Evergreen has had the

equipment, the staff, and the
faculty to provide a wealth of
instruction in television
production. Students have asked
for and worked for this
instruction, but the college has
been unwilling to provide it. If
this unwillingness can be partially
explained by uncertainties about
the equipment, the Department
of Social and Health Services
television contract with the
college, and more recently the
budget; there is no explanation
for the total lack of planning for
academic use of the television
facilities next year.
At present there is no
academic offering for next year
which includes student use of the
studio video equipment.
It is very likely that some staff
members in the media area will
be fired this year.
There has been discussion of
selling Evergreen's equipment to
the University of Washington.
While this is unlikely, it does
appear probable that the facility
will spend most of next year
depreciating in disuse.
What we are talking about is
an educational set-up just a notch
below professional quality.
According to Dave Carnahan,
dean of library services, "For
undergraduates this is one of the
best facilities in the country." It
seems logical that we should do
something with it. Where staff are
willing and able they should be
given as much instructional
responsibility as possible. Where
necessary faculty members
should be assigned to television
or multi-media programs.
The results would be an
extremely valuable educational
experience for students directly
involved, and the ability to fully
utilize the studio and cable
system in serving the community.
Failure to do this would indicate
an inability to fulfill needs even
when the necessary resources are
available. That's bureaucracy!

dependence on the U.S.
Lon has also had trouble
raising his 100 ,000-man army and
reports continue to show that
boys as young as eight are in the
ranks. Desertions have been high,
mainly because of lack of pay.
Ironically, Lon was recently
forced to report that his officers
had manufactured another
100,000 soldiers in order to
collect some $2 million in U.S.
funds, which went to their
private bank accounts.
An unsuccessful attempt to
bomb the Presidential Palace and
a violent demonstration against
government policies, culminated
in Lon Nol's declaration of a
State of Siege on March 17, and a
suspension of civil liberties,
including freedom of thought,
speech, press, public assembly
and the right to privacy in
residence and correspondence.
These drastic actions were a
bit too late, though, considering
that the popular opposition·

Rouge, now control as much as

Two for one-

one for two
Last week a two-headed baby
was born in Argentina. This is not
as unusual as it might appear. It
was certainly not the first.
Possibly thousands of two-headed
babies have been born in human
history .
1he unique thing is this: this
one lived, unlike most of its
brothers and sisters in the
two-headed class, and both its
heads were perfectly formed, and
were reacting to different stimuli.
This would tend to indicate quite
strongly that the baby was not a
"baby" but "babies," having two
different personalities confined
to one body. Unlike the more
typical "split personality" cases,
both personalities are present at
once, and each have their own
outlets.
Many questions arise as to

how an organism like this would
function. Who, for instance
would be in control of what part
of the body? There being only
one body that supports the two,
they would no doubt come into
dispute over its use at times. And
as they grow older, they might
develop different tastes in art,
music, and the cinema. They
might enjoy different activities,
different hobbies, they might fall
in love with different people, and
as a result become irreconcilable
enemies.

"Whether or not your trip is on

of state tuition would, of course, make things more difficult. Some
recent court decisions may make it difficult to assume that anyone is
really an out of state student. If a student moves into a state, registers
to vote and takes up residence in a new state, I question how we can
say they are out of state simply because they grew up somewhere else.
"If the whole concept of out of state tuition is eliminated, we will
have to find a new way to finance 10 per cent of the budget for our

Symposium examines Evergreen's Lmage

Once, I remember walking proud in a
¥ouns weman's body, not this decrepit
Bag of bones that hates to have me still inside.
And good looks gone. They hadn't far to go,
But mirrors made better staring than
This one damned patch of wallpaper.
It serves me right for picking out
That pattern, not that you expect to even
Have to die with so~e of your mistakes.
A person can't live that close to anything, I guess,
Though it seemed I could, with him, once,
And we did pr~tty well together, all those years.
Even that seems so far gone.
But then it's the feel of things that you remember,
Like the give of' bread dough when it's kneaded,
Or garden soil a little wet and clumpy
When you dig your fmgers in.
The bulbs ought to be coming up now - crocus, daffodils;
And how we used to walk there, or sit, of an
Evening, looking out, when they were little.
Now the only arms held out for me
Are being dutiful, and that's cold comfort
Against a fleshed-out memory. Spring now,
And no time for an old woman with no sap in her.
The choir will come and do "The Roll Is Called Up Yonder."
The new man seems to think that's helpful,
But he probably likes to be on a roll somewhere,
And there are worse things than dying, I expect.
-Susan Downer

Delphi Valley Review II
hits the stands
The Delphi Valley Review, a
collection of poetry and drawings
on broadsides, is now available in
the Library Building main lobby
or from Doug Kahn wherever you
might fmd him.
The publication includes three
drawings and approximately
fifteen poems by Evergreen
students and people in the real
world. The material is arranged

C::~~CI<9rfr~

on broadsides, printed, for the
most part, on only one side, so as
to make it convenient to hang on
a wall or telephone pole.
The cost of each issue is
twenty five cents. Not too
expensive for good poetry and
drawings.
As the table of contents says,
"it's something to please
everyone in the family ....."

The May edition of the
Evergreen Symposium concerns
itself with "Our Image." Essays
by President Charles McCann,
Director of College Relations
Dick Nichols, Vice president
David Barry and student Janet
Detering, all discuss Evergreen's
image sympathetically and
suggest ways to enhance it.
McCann and Nichols place
part of the blame for Evergreen's
image problem on the image of
higher education in general. They
feel that since the colleges and
universities are currently
disfavored by the public, a
college such as Evergreen will
certainly be attacked, because of
its innovative ideas. Nichols goes
so far as to say that "it may well
be that Evergreen (as far as it is
concerned) came along at the
wrong historical time."
Both these essays emphasize
the positive things the Evergreen
community can do to improve its
image. One statement of
McCann's that bothered me was
"The important thing is to
concentrate on making what we
say we are doing real." It would
seem better not to have any
difference between what we say
we do and what we do.
Detering's article deals
specifically with Evergreen's
legislative image. She interviewed
21 legislators as part of an
individual contract entitled
"TESC: Planning and Legislative
Relations."
The legislators' reactions to
Evergreen and to higher
education are both informative
and enlightening. Detering's

article is the most interesting and
perhaps the most constructive.
Barry, who acted as
Evergreen's representative during
the legislative session, talks of the
colleges' place in society and the
. problems that beset them. He
suggests that the campus take the
initiative in creating ways in
which the legislature can analyse
and communicate with

Evergreen ..
Barry also runs through a
partial list of those who have
helped Evergreen during the
legislative session.
The June Symposium's theme
is Alienation. The editors are
accepting submissions through
May 15. Address them to Editors,
Evergreen Symposium, Campus.

Well-known San Francisco session musician Merl Saunders has put
out a real nice album with a lot of good friends helping out. Friends
like Jerry Garcia of Grateful Dead fame on lead guitar, Tom Fogerty on
Rhythm Guitar, John Kahn, ex-Butterfield bassist, Bill Vitt on drums, ,
(Bill Kruetzman also of the Dead, plays drums on one cut), Walter
Hawkins and Sisters for background vocals, and a host of others making
this album a gold mine of talent.
When Jerry Garcia isn't performing with the Dead, he spends a good
part of his time playing small San Francisco clubs with Merl Saunders,
jamming with one another, and any of their friends that happen to drop
by.
This album is just an extension of the kind of things they do when
they play a club gig together.
On this album, Saunders and friends use songs, mostly written by
Saunders, as a jumping off place for extensive improvisation. It's a loose
album, with a lot of soulful organ playing by Saunders, and remarkable
guitar work by Garcia.
Tom Fogerty put out an album not too long ago, made up of the
same group of musicians as this album, incorporating the same style,
and doing it well.
The same combination works well on this album, as they jam to
their hearts' content.
It is definitely an album for special tastes, so if you like to listen to
people jam, then ·you'll probably like this album. It will never even
reach Billboards top 100, nor will it shoot Merl Saunders to fame, it's
just a nice album to listen to.
As usual, thanks go to Rainy Day Record Co. for providing the
albums.
