Moral Majority
on Campus
by Andy McCormick

Untitled

by David

Ltthograph

Two funny things happened on the way
to this story about Mike Farris and the
Moral Maj0<ity(MM) of Washington.
F1rst, the reporter went into Good Ne-.,vs
Bookstore on Olympia's West Side
searching for two books that Farris,
Executive Director of i\.\Mof Washington,
had called "very excellent" for those
interested in studying the general
philosophy of this conservative
organization.
The first book the reporter asked for,
Tim Lehay's The Battlefor the Mind, was
sold out - a very hot item these days in
Christian literary circles. However, Good
News did have Francis Schaelfe(s
enchantingly titled Whai- .-_
,eel
to the Human axe for an apocalyptic
S13.95.
The reporter browsed through the
glossy, coffeetable-sized tome. There were
lots of pictures of babies. The jacket blurb
bepn by pointina out that a little more
than a hundred years ago "a black man
was not considered a person."What this
fact had to do with a bookmainly about
abortion, infanticide, "'-'thanasia and the
morality thereof, was at best perplexing.
But soon the point became, ahem, clear:
Unleu Americw d6 IGiiWIIWic
immeclately, attitudes about these
matten that are unthinl<ably liberal today,
will be all the raae a century hence.
That's like saying ... no matter. The
reporter put Schaeffe(s bookback on the
shelf besides Charles Colson's We
Sallti.a:, and walked out.
He got on his bicycle. His ever-faithful,
beat-to-hell bicycle that had been running

The use of the N1squally Delta by the
Weyerhauser Company was discussed at a
public hearing held by the Dupont City
Council on January 21st
Weyerhauser has applied for a
Shoreline Substantial Development permit
so it can build an industrial complex and
deep water port on the N,squally Delta
near Dupont.
Half of the ten speakers who testified at
the hearing spoke in favor-of granting the
permit Most ol their arauments stressed
the economic impact of the new port .

Kowalflk Reservation• required tor all event.a.



The Weyerhauser project would create
about JOOjobs and bring an estimated
S393,000 a year to the Dupont area.
Opponents of the permit argue that the
economic benefits would be negated by
the biological damage and the decline in
tourism, fishing and the beauty of the
area.
Phil White, Special Projects Manager
for Weyerhauser, stated that
'Weyerhauser's studies and actions have
been in the public's best interest." He
drew a map of the proposed faciliti!!Sand
emphasized the 'catch basin' which would
surround the dock to keep all debris from
falling into the bay.
The site is far too close to the National
Wildlife Refuge on the Delta, claims the
Nisqually Delta Association (NOA). an
environmental group. The proposed site is
less than a mile from the boundary of the
refuge. Sarah Madson, a biologist who
worked on the Environmental Impact
Statement for the project. said that
Weyerhauser's proposal conflicts with the
Shoreline Management Act which
designates the Nisqually Delta area as one
of five shorelines which are of "statewide
significance." The act Specifies that the
public interest should be placed above
pnvate interests when considering
poss,ble uses of the land
Ted Hunter, a Seattle attorney
representing NOA, said environmental
groups will appeal to the Shoreline
Hearing Board if Dupont permits
Weyerhauser to develop

The fish and Wildlife Services
recommended an alternative site three
miles north at Solo Point. NOA supported
that recommendation because the site is
outside of the designated statewide
shoreline area and the environmental
,mpact on the Delta would be less than
the other proposeds,tes.
Weyerhauser rejected the proposal
According to Dick Lucas, attorney for
WeyerhaU5er,that site is not as desirable
because a right~f-way permit from the
government would be required in order to
use it.
Ted Hunter, the NOA attorney, later
dismis5ro Lucus' comment Hunter said
that the right-of-way permit could be
acquired by negotiating with Fort Lewis.
which uses the area for tank training
"People drive CNerihat land all the tune,"
he sa,d "II could be workedout I don't
think it's that big of a problem "
Hunter said t~.at the Army Corps of
Engineers is seriously looking at the Solo
Point site as a location for the
Weyerhauser pro1ect because ,t would
meet NOA concerns and still allow
Weyerhauser to build export facilities
According to Steve Martin from the
Seattle office of the Army Corps of
Engineers, Weyerhauser was asked to
evaluate Solo Point as an
alternative site. Weyerhauser contracted
w,th KPFFConsulting Engineers to
conduct the study.

Greepeace Organization hit the front
page once more when it staged a protest
of the supertanker tests conducted by the
Coast Guard in the Strait of Juan de Fuca
over the weekend. Members m
Greenpeace, including the Canadian
directOf, Patrick Moore and New Age
publisher Re, Weyler, were arrested and
fined fOf civil disobedience.
Greenpeace Ofganized the attempted
blockade to protest this first test of a
supertanker over 125,000 tons on
Washington inland waters. The tests are
viewed by the organization as a means for
the Coast Guard to begin dismantling the
current ban on tankers which had been
sponsOfed by fOfmer SenatOf Magnuson
during his tenure.
lv1embersof Greenpeace from chapters
in Olympia, San Francisco, Eugene,
Portland, Denver and Montreal used small
rubber crafts to disrupt the tests and
elude Coast Guard vessels. On Friday,
several rubber crafts, entered the 2000
foot safety zone around the supertanker.
Chased by the Coast Guard, the
Greenpeace boats evaded the
less-maneuverable government crafts.
After being chased around the 166,000
dead weight supertanker B,T, Sandiego,
the Greenpeace volunteers surrendered to
the C~t Guard.
More than SOreporters and
camerapersons from 38 newspapers, radio
and television stations recorded the event
for the public's enlightenment and
edification.
The Greenpeace civil disobedience
continued Saturday. Three rubber boats
entered the safety zone after launching

talking about democratic ideals cherished
by MM and how groups like the Nallonal
Organization of Women subvert them
with what he called, in the case of NOW,
"neo-Naz1-hke" tactics. Indeed, NOW
seems to be something of an obsession
with Farris in a recent /vVl.1newsletter he
called NOW an "extreme left-wing
feminist organization" whose "right-wing
counterpart'' is none other than the Ku
Klu, Klan
NOW, a symptom, led Farris to the real
disease that attlicts America humanism. "Humanism is the basic
controlling force in American life." To
,v\/\,1, humanism is a way of life, a
philosophy, a religion, just like Buddhism
Farris said he hopes,someday, to make
Evergreen a constitutional test case and
shut it do,m for using state funds to
"inculcate" - a favorite i\M.-1buzzword
-the humanist religion. Actually, he said,
he'd like to sue all of Washington's state
colleges but ''when you're bringing a test
case, you pick the most flagrant
example " He thought the existence of a
'Humanism and Science" program here
was pretty flagrant
Exactly what's so terrible about

"Humanism goes up, production goes

last, but by no means least, humanists
have made the idea of nationalism
"archaic." Farris said that phrases like
"dialogue" and "reach a consensus" are
humanist buzzwords which imply that
you can reach a consensus with, say, the
Russians; when, in fact, if yoo value
Judeo-Christian moral absolutes, you
cannot
On certain issues, Farris said, "like

would prove that Evergreen was
inculcating students with humanist
doctrine. Farris responded by saying that
he would look at reading lists and listen
to tapes from program meetings. Because
constitutional law is his specialty, Farris
believes not only that he can state his
case "fairly succinctly," but also that he
can win.
He did not say when he was going to
pursue the case. He did, however, quietly
mention that he knew a person "right now
who would give me S1,000,000to try this
case."

Shameful Passions
Equating gay folk with "baby-rapers,"
Farris seemed, at times as he fielded
questions, carried away with the heat and
vigor of his words. He became particularly
incensed during a brief flurry with faculty
member David PowelI. Powell noted that
Farris' plan to eliminate public schools, as
we now know them, fClfschools run by
private enterprise, had both racial and
cla.ss implications. Powell said Farris well

He has been too cheap to take it to the

It was not. It worked.

Guerilla's Strike at High Noon
by Roger Stritmatter
Members o/ the Applied Environmental
Studies Program (AES)and the Evergreen
Master Plan Contract engaged in some
guerilla interior decOfation last Monday at
noon, when they rearranged furniture on
the main floor of the CAB building. 'We
were just going to move It and see howit
worked and then move it back," said
student Joyce Newman. "But it looked so
much better we decided not to move it
back." A week later, despite some
dispute, the furniture remains relocated,
and most CAB users seem to favOf the
rearrangement.
AccOfding to Master Plan student David
Stalhein, the furniture rearrangement
developed spontaneously out of a
workshop on the a.ea,,,,Experiment
which he and Stewart Wells, also a
student, were conducting for fellow
classmates. The a.ea,,,,Experimentis a
guide of environmental planning for
public institutions, such as state colleges,
where purse strings are controlled by
centralized beauracracies, which may or
may not be in touch with the ultimate
implications of the decisions they make.
Along with its sister volume, A Pattern
Language,the Oregon Experimont
commands an almost biblical respect
among progressive planning professionals.
The purpose o/ the workshop,
according to Stalheim, was to "have
people familiar with the workings o/ the
CAB~sess the strengths and weaknesses
of the current design and then propose
what changes were necessary to overcome
those weaknesses." The ideal of "use,
participation" he said, is central to the
philosophy developed in the Oregon
Experiment.
All in all, about two dozen students
participated in the workshop. Joyce
Newman, one of the participants,
explained that the fundamental
observation
the students was that the
north (Rec Center) end
the CAB was
being under-utilized due to the haphazard
arraneement of couches, benches, tables
and chairs in that area.
The workshop participants developed
three tactics with which to attack this
problem:
1) The two benches formerly placed at
right angles to each other and
forming a barrierbetween the central

boats and their crews. The boats rounded
the tanker several times. One
Greenpeace craft escaped into Canadian
waters. The other two surrendered when it
became apparent that the actions were
endangering the safety of the Coast Guard
vessels.
The results of this test will be included
in the recommendations fOf tanker size
limits that the Coast Guard will give the
Department of Transportation in March. If
the Coast Guard determines that
supertankers above 125,000 deadweight
tons are able to safely maneuver in the
strait, the current ban may be lifted.
Several oil corporations, particularly
Shell and Arco, helped overturn a
Washington State law limiting tanker size
to less than 125,000 dea<iweight tons in a
federal lawsuit during 1976. They argued
that larger ships would reduce the number
o/ tankers on the Sound and decrease the
risk of tanker wrecks. They also claimed
that the newer supertankers are more
technologically advanced and safer than
the older tankers.
Environmentalists argue that the larger
ships are more difficult to maneuver, take
a greater distance to slow down or stop
and have a greater number of accidents.
Supertankers also require deeper water,,
and are more likely to run aground.
Environmentalists claim the oil companies
merely want to reduce costs through the
use
larger vessels which require fewer
people and increase the margin of profit
per trip.
If the current ban on supertankers is
lifted, Patrick Moore, Canada Greenpeace
directOf, vowed that the Ofganization will
return to protest the use of the ships on
Washington inland waters.

I stand in the paradoxical position ol
being intolerent of the intolerence around

me If a publication arises on campus
which bothers o, ottends you, then by all

because I do not think like you.
Often I come across some literature on
campus which never fails to arouse my
disgust. Every time the hawkers selling the

Youdon't see me screaming to the

So to put my feelings in a phrase all

Past revolutions in Third World
countries as diverse as China, Cuba,
Vietnam, Iran and Nicaragua have all
demonstrated that the United States
cannot buy political stability for long in a
country where it conflicts with the
popular will. Massive infusions of arms
and aid to authoritarian governments in
those countries ended up only aggravating
popular discontent with those Us.backed
regimes. It is bound to do the same in El
Salvador.
These revolutions also demonstrated
that popular uprisings in Third World
countries are not intrinsically linked with
SO<:alledSoviet "expansionism." Of the
countries mentioned, those who dtd turn
to the Soviet Union did so only after their
overtures for assistance were rebuffed by
the United States. As Maurice Bishop,
head of the new left-wing government in
Grenada, recently put it: "Just after the
revolution we requested aid and arms
fro,n the US.... We were offered S5,000 barely enough to build a toiletl
(Soviet-supported) Cuba sent arms,

Not only does our policy of turning
away pleas of assistance from popular
Third Wo,ld liberation movements and
propping up unpopular dictatorships
create the conditions for Soviet
involvement, It also creates the
justification for our own involvement: to
contain Soviet "expansionism." This is
precisely the argument Ronald Reagari'.,s
ambassador to the United Nations, Jeaifne
Kirkpatrick, uses in an article in the
current issue of Commentary to advocate

To the editor:
I am tired of reading Larry Stillwell's
sniveling and whinirTg.In his self-pitying
"Satire at Evergreen" Mr. StillweHdoes
nothing to defend freedom of pres,, but
instead moans and wails because
someone caUed him on his obnoxious
insulting behavior.
'
I v<>Uldbe among the last to criticize
the • ,tire issue" just for the fact that it
was p. ,led, or for its alleged bad wte.
As a gay man, I found the issue rather
funny (especially the Hustler alumnus
joke). What I would like to point out
about the issue, though, is that Mr.
Stillwell wrote that issue with the intent
of insulting most of the Evergreen
community, and not for its "humor."
In light ol the flack he has been dealt
over the "Satire issue," Mr. Stillwell's
attitude i, deplorable. Does he organize a
prote,t of the pub board; mal<ea formal
,tatement in print asking for support ol
the CPJ; or even simply write a letter to
the board! He can't. He has insulted eve,y
non-white, non-het, noo-male, non-upper
clas, student at the college and so has no
support from the people most willina to
fight for their ",elf-important" rights. Mr.
Stillwell did this more through his
editorial policies than through the "Satire
issue."
So we are left with the typical
Ellergreen "action'' in the face of adve-.ity
-the whining of babie,. Why do we have
to see it in print?

TO HUMOR

have little more to offer than arms. Their
technology lags behind ours and they
can't afford to subsidize more than one
Cuba. That is why most Third Wo,ld
liberation movements turn to the United
States first and use the Soviet Union as a
last resort.
If a policy of rapprochement with
popular Third Wo,ld liberatin movements
might be in our national security interests
would it be in our economic interests' If
the facts that Cuban troops and the Sovie
backed MPLAsafeguarded Gulf Oil's
Angolan holdings during the civil war
there; and that the Chinese are currently
courting US investment are any
indicators, then the answ-erwould have to
be that US support of popular Third
World liberation movements 1s not
necessarily in confltct w1th our econorrnc
interests.

Dear Edito,:
We are 10 raen in Olympia working
together to develop and conduct actions
combating sexual assault. As men we
1 accept responsibility for opposing
sexist attitudes perpetrated by men.
We believe that rape·;, not just the
action ol a few deviants, but also an
expression of the attitudes toward women
that all men are taught in our culture. We
view rape as an act of dominance carried
out to degrade, humiliate, and e.ploit the
victim. Our culture has taught us that it is
proper for men to dominate women and
to view them as objects for domination.
Rape, is the most extreme weapon used to
threaten women resisting this domination.
This threat pervades our whole culture in
m.,ny subtle ways. The male role
teaches the need for power based on
one's sex, and serves to victimize children
and some men (for example rapes in
prisons) as well as women.
We are currently defining our activities.
Recently some of us helped Thurston
County RapeRelief conduct a local high
school educational. We plan to continue
working in the high schools. We are also
considerina work in the following areas:
demonstrations of businesses and media
events which support or encourage sexual
violence, confrontations of known or
suspected rapists, assistance to male rape
victims, and organization of public
forums to provide general education
about sexual assault.
We want to cooperate with women's
groups and other interested organizations
and are receptive to idea, and critici,m
from women regarding our plans and
actions. We recognize the contradictions
and sensitive nature surrounding a aroup
of men working against the
oppressiveness of men in our society. We
also rec0&nize that women have the right,
as do any oppressed people,, to define
the nature of their own oppression. We
are taking initiative and responsibility in •
the directions we pur>ue.
During the upcoming weekly meetinas
we will set our goal, and plan actions. Any
women or men interested in reachine u,
can do so throuah:

''9 to 5'': •
A Disappointment
By Kathy Davis

"9 to 5" deals with a serious subject
which has never been touched by the film
industry before-the problems experienced by the growing work force of
women in pink collar office jobs. Fo, that
I congratulate its mal<ers.Unfortunately,
'"I to 5" i, pure fantasy. It tries so hard to
get laughs that any serious social statement it could have made is negated.
I had hiah hopes through the first part
of the movie. The beginning i, wonderful,
from the Dolly Parton theme sonato the
shots of high heels frantically rushing
down the street. The sto.y center, around
three women working in a large impersonal corporate office.
Dolly Parton plays the big voluptuous
blonde who ;, being pursued by the boss,
but like the Mae West-type ,he seems to
be emulating, we soon find out she is no
passive dummy. Dolly i, surprisingly believable in her first attempt at acting,
though with her striking ioolu, she may be
trapped forever in the Mae West role.
Jane Fonda plays the naive, divorced
housewife returning to the world of work.
Lilly To,nlin is the 12-year company veteran who knows more than anyone else
there,yet is always passed over when promotions are handed out.
I enjoyed the film up through the scene
where the three friends get drunk and
stoned and make up outrageous fanwies
ol how they would aet back at the big,
mean, macho bos, man. Thesescene, u,e
, innovative film techniques that set them
,olf from the restof the movie. I cheered
;•Ion&
with the womens'understandable
bitterness.
However, ''9 to s· soon decenerates
into a &Ody ,lapstick comedywhen the

womenaccidentally fulfill their fantasies
and end up kidnapping the boss and holding him hostage in his own house. We get
a madcap race through the hospital with
a dead body and even the obligato.y car
crash scene. In fact, the plot becomes so
crazy and unbelievable (I couldn't help
thinking of that daffy dame, Lucy) that we
completely lose sight of the real issues
T:ie women take over the ottice (no
one even notices that the boss is missing)
and implement some laudable reforms
like day care, flexible work hours and a
bright, co,nfortable deco,. They dig up
somedirt on the boss so that he can't
finger them for their illegal activities.
After all, kidnapping and attempted murder are major offenses.
The ending is so neat and easy, it is
utterly unbelievable. Ultimately, it takes
another powerful male boss to get the
women out of their pickle.
The problems of the women in the pink
collar 11hetto-overt sexism, physical anct
psychol011icalharrassment, low pay and
stark working conditions-are serious and
quite real. The kinds of sexism portrayed
in this film are illegal and should have
been taken to a court of law It is through
dignified and o,ganized action that
women will improve their workplace, not
through slapstick, hairbrained and ba,1cally male-oriented schemes, as this
movie seems to suggest.
At the most, I am glad that this topic
has been brought to the screen fo, the
first time. But too bad the mal<ersol
"9 to 5" tre.ited it in suc;li
a flip and ridiculous manner. They were obviou,ly more
interested in mass audience appNI t!Yn
in mal<inaa worthwhile film about a rNI
social problem.

This ignorance is largely due to doctors
and dentists not informing cold sore
patients of the possibility of herpes
transmission, orally or genitally. Herpes
cold sores are not a sexually transmitted
disease, but they can be transmitted to
the genital area by oral-genital contact.
Remington is concerned that the media
tends to focus on the complications of
herpes, the increased incidence of
cervical cancer in women, and possible
complications during pregnancy.
There 1s no medical evidence that
proves a cause and effect relationship
between cervical cancer and genital
herpes. However, researcher, have found
that the virus is a significant risk factor in
transmitting normal cervical cells into
defective, or potentially cancerous cells.
The Herpes Clinic stresses that while
cervical cancer ts a relatively uncommon
disease, herpes is widespread. Statistically,
the two are bound to Ollerlap. A woman
with genital herpes is six times more likely
to develop cervical cancer than a woman
without herpes. To prevent this, a woman
with herpes should get a PAP test every
six months to detect early cervical
changes Medical treatment for dealing
with these changes is very effective.
Risk in pregnancy is small. One in every
three to six thousand infants is infected
with herpes during delivery If a lesion is
present during the time of delievery, brain
damage, or even death, may result Such
complications can be prevented by having
a Caesarean section If a l~ion is not

The Clinic is funded by grants from the
National Institute of Health, and the
Burroughs Wellcome drug company. The
clinic has just applied for a five-year grant
that will focus on epidomlology, and
hopes to answer more questions
concerning herpes. transmission.
Herpes has afflicted civilization for
2,CXXl
years, but little is known about it.
When asked about the number of people
that have l)erpes, Remington replied that
"I know it's under fifty percent (of the
sexually active population), it might even
be more. Some people may not know
they have herpes. He also said that "fewer
people are misdiagnosed now than five
years ago. I still see that (misdiagnosis)
once or twice a week - bugs the heck
out of me."
It is difficult to find accurate,
non-conflicting, updated information
about genital herpes. Doctor, are more
aware today than in the past, but like all
sexually transmitted diseases, genital
herpes thrives on ignorance.
At Everween, you can get diagnosed by
observation at Health Services. Lesion,
must be present at the time of.
diagnosis. To get a culture or a blood test,
you'd have to go to Harborview VO
Clinic, also when the lesion is present.

The Environmental Resource Center
(ERC) is planning to presP.nl "EARTHFAIR
'81: A Celebration of Life," which will
occur during the week of April 1~26.
1981. Originally called "Earth Day," this
fair was first established by various
organizations nationwide in recognition of
the growing environmental crisis and the
need for informed conservation activity. It
was designed to broaden public awareness
and discussion of environmental issues.
The first Earth Day was held on April 22,
1970,
The ERC'.has decided to expand this
into a more educational event, integrating
many issues affecting the individual and
the environment. The fair will include
lectures, seminars, information booths,
dc,rnonstrations, and workshops. All
events will focus on one of seven mcijor
topic areas: health, agriculture, energy,
transportation, entertainment, spirituality,
dnd the natural environment.
The planning for the fair is based on
three specific goals. First, to raise public
awareness of issues affecting the
individual and environment, and what can
be done to deal with problems both in
the present and future. Second, to pr011ide
an event which will involve the regional
corrvnunity in a coopefative learning
experience consistent with, and
complimentary to, the Evergreen
philosophy. Third, to create an event
which can be carried on year after year.
There are many suggestions for
activities concerning the major topic
areas. On health: SAGA health food week
polarity, holistic health, nutrition,
vegetarianism, and drugs, pharmaceuticals
and their adverse affects. On spirituality:
trust games, meditation, tai chi, a Sunday

service, and workshops dealing with
various aspects of spirituality. On
agriculture and the natural environment:
herb walks at the organic farm, outreach
for the Sierra Club and the Nisqually
Delta issue, forest planning, wilderness,
old people and alternative life styles, and
world food scarcity. On energy: outreach
concerning the Washington Public Power
Supply System (WPPSS), and nuclear
wastes. Entertainment may include: tight
rope walking, juggling, mime, theater, and
musical performance. Since the planning
for this event has just begun, the
activities which have been suggested are
not definite.
Guests from many fields are slated to
speak. John Conners, head of the C..mpus
Ministry at Oregon State University will
speak on peace versus nucledr weapons
armament and Reagan. Shelly Douglas
will speak on non-violent actions dnd
feminism. Judy LiplOn,a professor from
the University of Washington and the
President of Washington Physicians for
Social Responsibility, will speak about the
individual's responsibility to society and
culture. Dr. Chester Keller, of the
Philosophy Department at Central
Washington University will speak on
wilderness and utopia. Ella William, from
Fort Steilacoom Community College will
speak on the psychology of being, and
Richard Overman from the University of
Puget Sound will talk about new age
philosophy and communities.
Additional presentations will be given
by Seattle Greenpeace and Live Without
Trident.
Any donations given for "EARTHFAIR'
'81 will be appreciated.

Outdoor Resource
Center Opens
by Allen Levy
The Unsoeld/O1epenbrock Resource
Center, a clearing houw for programs
related to outdoor education, recently
opened its doors in Library 3234. The
purpose of the center is to promote
former Evergreen faculty Willi Unsoeld's
educational philosophy of outdoor,
expenential education Unsoeld and )ante
Otepenbrock, a student, were killed 1n an
avalanche on Mt Rainier m the spring of
1979.
The center will contain a file of
program, 1n the field of outdoor
education Anyone interested in finding a
program is welcome to use the file In
addition, the center houses a small
library of tapes and transcripts of
Unsoeld's lectures. Currently, the tapes
cannot be removed from the center but every Tuesday at b pm, the public is
invited to a tape seminar, when one of
the taped lectures will be played and then
discussed The tapes are also available for
listening, at the center, during office
hours from 1 to 4 Monday through Friday
Eric Kessler, the coordinator of the
center, carries an individual contract for
winter and spring quarter to set up and
run the center The center also has an
adv1sorv board that is working in

con1uncflon with the library to prepare an
Unsoeld Collection of books, to be placed
m the library, that relate to Unsoeld's
philosophy and lifestyle. The adv,sory
board consists of Evergreen faculty and
students, the Unsoeld family, and
members of the Evergreen Foundation
"It's made up of people who represent
different facets of Willi Unsoeld," said
r nc, "people who climbed with him,
worked with him, learned from him, and
lived with him"
future plans for the center include an
office on the fourth floor of the library, a
natronal outdoor education news letter,
and hosting a conference of the
/\ssociation of Exper1ent1alEducation Eric
1s also planning an outdoor adventure
board, similar to a ride board, but
designed to help people get m touch with
other people interested m outdoor
activities
Funding for the center comes from
donation, to W1ll1Unsoeld's and Jane
Diepenbrock's memorials. In the future,
fundng will come from donations and
special events sponsored by the center
The center will also accept donations in
the form of stories, photos, or articles
about Willi Unsoeld, and welcomes ideas
about guest speaker, or events for the

Governance at Evergreen
The Evergreen student body, described
as an "elusJve lot," has gained more
visibility since SIN formed to assist
student governance. SIN is the newest ol

campus, Ofganizations which the
following Kissman Glossary will disclose.
Originally more extensive than what is
presented here, it will still "help new (and
old) students find the administrators who

biggest stop. They offered to build the
shelters and we decided to accept."
Evergreen architect Jon Collier added,
"The shelters will be located on the far
end of the loop, in a place where there
will be no negative impact to the
college's aesthetic qualities. The bushes
will help soften the shelter's appeara.9ce,
yet the bus will be able to be seen frooi
the library.''
Commenting on future plans for the
college to build a permanent structure on
the loop, Doerkson said, 'We have ideas
for such a structure. Some involve
building an information booth or a book
drop for the library. But we don't have
the money now for such a project so they
just remain ideas. It's not really high on

Arnold Doerkson. They will be located at
the far end of the library loop near the
information board. The current bus
shelter, located in Parking lot C, will no
longer be used.
Student complaints of the shelter in C
Lot prompted city bus drivers to use the
college's front loop as a bus stop since
last spring. The major complaint
concerning the C Lot shelter was that it
was too far from the library. Riders were
unable to view the bus arrivals and often
missed their ride home by seconds. Van
corrvnuters complained of the isolation at
night, making the shelter a potential
target for attacks. (Consequently the C Lot
shelter has lapsed into disuse.)
When asked why it had taken so long
to construct bus shelters at the present
bus stop, Doerkson said that the problem
had been under consideration. "The city

our list of priorities."
Once the new bus shelters are erected,

the old bus shelter in Clot will remain
standing but it will no longer be serviced
by either Intercity Transit or the college
van service.

However, if the shoulder or the path

Litman says he doesn't want separate

paths, adding, "All you need is a good
shoulder"
But, even improvements on
shoulders requires money, and because
a considerable amount of money
available for road improvement comes
from the gasoline tax, the focus of the
city and county road departments
remains automobile-oriented. "If the
