I .. 695: WHAT'S IT TO yOU?
byTristan Baurick
Nov. 2 is the day that you alld the rest of
Washington State will have the opportun ity to
decide on an initiative that, if voted into being,
could make getting to scho ol a lot IIIOrl'
complicated and expensive.
The initiative is 1-69S. 1·695\ grea test
impact will be that it puts an end to the Motor
Vehicle Excise Tax (MVET). The revenul'
generated by this tax has been th!' fOllndation
of public transportation agencies t hr ollghout
the state since the 1930s. Frolll ~s percent to
60 percent of these agency's operat illg budgets
have been provided by the MVET.
1-695. if enacted. will elililillate this
financial support. Losses to pllblic worb are
estimated by the State ofWashiligton to reach
220 million dollars next year. Great
adjustments will have to be Inade to maint:lill
the bus services Evergreen students depend Oil.
Supporters of 1-695 , who :Jr(' hoping for
automobile tax cuts, point to statl' savings and
surpluses to pick up the slack where the MVET
would leave off. Unfortunate ly. the \tate
, surplus can only provide for 70 milli oll ofth r
220 million that will be wkl'1l <twav. This Ivan"
a fairly large gap in funds.
According to Susan Hanson. Intercity
Transit's Director of Marketing and
Comm unications, 42 percentofiT's budget
will br lost if 1-695 is passed. Int erc ity
Tramit will be forced to let go of half its staff
and cut its services by 50 percent due to lack
Ilffllliding. IT's fleet of buses will be
reduced by 4U percent and with this
reduction will come fewer rid ers and evell
less revellue to support public
t ra Iisportatioll.
What docs this lI1eall lor you? Ifl·695
passes Int ercity Transit has proposed
ending rOllte 41)'s service to Evergreen.
Ikcallse the 41 is one onT's most Iregurlltly
us ed ruutes its se rvice to Evergree n will
likely con tinu e. However. according to
Susan Hanson, plans have heell Illade to cut
the 41 's srrvices inha If dllrin g even in gs and
on wel'kellds. As of right 1I0W, it is unclear
how studellt passes will be alfected ifl·(i9[i
is made law. The survival of tile stlldellt hm
pass is nnt guarallt erci and budget clIIs lIlay
When askrd how she would fer! about
the passage 01'1-695. Melanie Bates, a fourth
year Evrrgreen studrnt and regular bus rider,
said. " I would be irritated. I thillk the people
who want 695 arc rich and just want tax cuts
for bllcy cars."
Murphy, a third year Evergreell student
against 1-695. said that she would be
"concrflled that all bicycle·riding studen ts,
who depend on th e buses on rainy days, would
have to look to automobiles as their alternative
somce or transportation . It wonld also make
it likely that students would get old cheap
beater cars with bad ex hallst emissions." If
Murphy's prediction is correct ,the additional
cars could also co ntribllt e to morr traffic
probleIlls and a greater scarc ity of parking
spots on campus.
Intercit ), Transit rccords show that
studrnts relied on busrs u77.000 times l a~t
year. These studen ts cou ld find that the
conveniellCl', easr. and 10'" costs provided by
IT dralnat ically changed il'l·G9:i is passed. The

The Cooper Point Journal
dedicates this issue to a discussion
on sexual assault. Every year,
colleges experience a peak in
sexual assault cases during the fall
quarter. It's called the Red Zone.
We realize our coverage does
not extend in all directions. We
want to be clear that rape is not
something that happens to
women on ly. Rape can happen to
anyone by anyone.
So, we invite you to continue
this conversation by dropping off
an article, photo, artwork or letter
to the CPJ on the third floor of the
CAB. You can email anything to
CPJ@evergreen.edu.

Evergreen Parkway for a defective mufllrr. It
was soon discovered that his li cense had been
suspended, and when he was asked to get out
of the ca r, he attempted to nee on rool. Cole
was pllrsued and wrestled to the ground by
officers Tony Nee ly, Pamela Garland, and
George Oplinger. At this point, according to
th e oflice orStudent Affairs. Cole is said to have
made threats on the three officers' lives.
Co le was arrested 011 the charge of
resistin g arrest; soon afterward, several pieces
of child pornography were found lying around
on th e back seat of his car.
Thi s is not Co le's first orfense. Colr, a
former logge r who "sometimes live s in
Hoquialll ." has a crimillal record dating from
1972. Ilis onensrs have included breaking J
restraining order and burglary.
Cole has been officially notified that if he
sets foot on campus again, it will co nstitute a
criminal trespass. According to Huntsbrrry,
the school will receive a call from Thurston
County upon Cole's release. As of press time.
the school has not received a call.
"There is no hard-fast legal rule about
criminal trespass," said Art Costantino, vire
president of Student Affairs. This means that
Cole may eventually have the trespass lifted
and be free to return to TESC. For the lime
being, however. he is regarded by the Office of
Student Affairs as a potential danger to the
TESC community.

voters showed that 73 percent of them
supported the death penalty when offered the
choice of "support" or "oppose." However,
when the field is widened to include a choice
between the death penalty or life in prison,
voter support for the death penalty drops to

"Generation j"
Response to WID column
Oct 21, 1999 issue
By Shmuel Rubinstein and Oalya Perez
To:CPJ
Kevan Moore's piece on the WTO is an
example of conventional (attributive) journalism,
which lacks investigative challenge. "It would be silly
to go into specific case studies here", says he. Does
he inform the reasons why thousands of people are
upset even against "compassionate liberals" such as
our President?
The global organization is demeaning our
hard·fought laws and regulations that have
improved our lives, e.g. it overrode a California
prohibition of a carcinogenic additive to gasoline
because it interfered with the"right to make profit."
I read this in Jim Hightower's newsletter
"LOWDOWN,"
It is well and good to look for social justice for
Mumia. Everyone should protect his/her own social
justice as well. Economic justice, environmental
justice and natural rights are being threatened and
the CPJ should inform everyone about this.
Irene Mark Buitenkant
(This art icle is based 011 the
reflections of a speech givell by t he alit hor
Lisa Schiffman 0 11 her new book,
Generation j)
We Jews here at Evergreen are the
"Generation j," We are those Jews who are
a product of over 2000 years of allti·
Semitism, We are the remains of th e
attempted worldwide annihilation of our
ethnicity, ofour culture, alld ofour religion
- the Holocaust. We arc those Jews born
into the assimilation American society alld
culture pushes upon us, We are they who,
in spite of this push, continue to struggle
with our selt:identification - whether it be
ethnically, culturally, or religiously - and
are often confused ill this process due to
our marginality within Americall society,
defined at times strictly as "non·whites,"
and at other times as those minorities who
can often "bypass" their id ellt iti es and
benefit from "passing" as white, We are all

IN OUR
BACKYARD
by Mac Lojowsky
By next May Thurston County's Hawk's Prairie
Landfill will have reached its full 90 square acre
capacity. Roosevelt landfill will begin accepting the
trash, and the county will continue prodUCing the
trash. The City of Olympia's Parks, Recreation and
Cultural Services (OPRCS) has the unique opportunity
to cut its landfill·bound waste almost in half.
Currently, OPRCS has no recycling program through
which to minimize it's landfill·bound waste.
Steven's Field, LBH, Yauger Park (popularleague
softball, football and soccer venues) and Percival
Landing together ship approximately 7,200 pounds
of trash each week to the Hawk's Prairie Landfill. The
Farmer's Market alone produces 8,400 pounds oftrash
each week. Somewhere between 30·50 percent ofthis
landfill·bound material consists of recyclable
aluminum cans, plastic and glass bottles.
Despite diligent efforts of'both seasonal workers
and full·time City employees, the parks administration
continuously refi.lses to consider a recycling program.
The cost ofa program that would cover these five parks
is minimal. Pacific Disposal quoted a number of
programs for all five parks ranging from a total cost of
$85 a month to $100 a month, A one·time collection
container purchase would be necessary to provide on·
site recycling containers,
. Last July, a three·week recycling pilot program
was conducted at Yauger Park with seasonal workers
Ga len Schmitt, Mac Lojowsky, and the head of
Olympia's Recycling, Trash and Compost program
Penny Mabie. The results showed a 50 percent
decrease in landfill trash, positive public support and
took no additional work time.
This report was then sent to Parks Service
Manager Terry Myer, requesting a meeting to discuss
implementing a citywide park recycling program.
After nearly three months, Myer still has made no
elTort to respond to the report. Despite numerous
attempts by the CPJ, Myer has refused to return phone
calls regarding this article.
As the city of Olympia's population continues
to grow, park use and trash disposal will clearly grow
as well. Over a short time, the Roosevelt landfill will
reach its full capacity, Another landfill will need to be
created to handle an ever·increasing consumer
culture's habits. The possibility to affect one small facet
ofour city's disposal practices translates into a greater
opportunity for ecological participation. You can call

LETTERS AND OPINIONS
FOOD AND SEX
by Eva Masin
The writer just finished eating an
amazing sandwich of succulent
vegetables crushed between soft slices of
marbled rye bread. Inside, avegan burger
containing hemp seeds (a hempyla
burger?) sat nestled between slabs of
avocado, tomato and a cnmchy pile of
sprouts. She followed this delicacy with
a salad ofvaried fresh leaves drenched in
agolden sun dried tomato salad c1res..~iJlg.
Glancing around from her little
table, she notices the interesting framed
pictures decorating the halls. The stereo
drones out soft mllsic, the sort of music
that irrunediately lets the listener know it
isn't KAOS and it L~n't country, and not a
lot more because she never listens to that
sort ofstation longer than enough to hear
it and move the little green blurb to
somewhere else on the dial.
Moving her focus to the crow's eye
(what the hell do we know about crow's
eyes anyway?) view, the writer zeroes in
on a sculpture of a naked couple
embracing standing about eight inches
high and two feet away. Though the
sexual nature of this couple can not be
determined from this angle, the writer
finds herselfwishing,almost hoping, that
they are both women. Her eyes rove
onward, through the doorway into the
next room. There is a Pepsi clock over
the door. A poster of a feathery white
heron hangs close by.
There are no windows in the room
because we are a level below the ground
down here in t:vhat is literally a door in
the wall cafe, The wall is a yellowish
cement wall, if the writer remembers
correctly, and the door, just let her get to
the door. The door leads you down some
old steps onward past purple grape
stencils and down into the cafe. Going
towards the tables, where one may seat
herself, a pass of racy post cards is
encountered picturing men and women,
both hetero and homosexual, in various
innocent sexually provocative poses,
Of course, the writer, obviously
having that ever-mysterious topic of
sexuality on the brain, has to purchase a
postcard that pictures two girls leaning
out convertibles passing in different bnes
to kiss passionately in tile middle of the
street while their accompanying
girlfiiends look on ,laughing delightedly.
The writer pens a mes.~age to her r.rst
feminine crush ever, who is now living in
Germany with her husband, while she
waits for her food.
The atmosphere is relaxed and
devoid of cllstomers on this Friday
afternoon. The writer can't tell you the

Who is Mumia Abu-Jamal?
by Michael Patrick Kileen & Elizabeth Mckuria
Who is MUl11ia Abu·Jamal?
This question has cOl11e up on this
campus for over a year noll', and our
hope IS to inform those who don't
know many of the ansll'ers. Mumia
Abu·Jamal is a political prisoner on
death row in th e state of
Pennsylvania. He was a freelance
journalist until 1981 , the ye,ar of his
arrest and incarceration. As a
journalist, he worked to expose the
racism and injustices that exist in the
major systems that we, the people,
depend on. He exposed the
corruption in the courts, higher
education, and the government. His
broadcast journalism and political
beliefs ea rned him a negative
reputation among the Philadelphia
police and the former Mayor, Frank
Rizzo. The year before his arrest,
Mumia Abu·Jamal received an
award for h is journalistic reports on
police brlltalit y. On the night of Dec
9, 1901 while Abu-Jamal was
working his second job as a cab
driver, he saw his brother being
pulled over by the police and he
proceeded to pull his cab over to
make sure his brother's rights were
not bring violated. The night ended
with Ofticer William Faulkner fatally
shot and Abu·Jamal with a chest
wound and ult imatrly a conviction
for murder. The events that occurred
in those few minutes are still
disputed, hence the beginning of the
controversy surrounding Mumia
Abu·Jamal.
His trial has several different
players and injustices involved. The
judge, Albert Saba, has put more
people on death row than any other
sitting judge in this country. He is a
member of the FOP (Fraternal Order
of Police) who backed the
proseculion. The prosecutor had
previously convicted an innocent
m:1Il of-murder in th e case of
Commonwealth v. Connor. Mumia
Abu·Jamal was refused his
constitutional right to defend
himself and his court-appointed
defense attorney made repeated
attempts to relieve himself of his
duty as Abu·Jamal's lawyer. His
Attorney was only allocated $150 for
his defense, which is not a sufficient
amount of money to defend a case
where several witnesses, including
professional ballistic specia lists and
medical doctors, need to be
rontacted. Alsu, Mumia was forced
to leave the court room on several
occasions through out the trial,
which is illegal in a federal case such
as this. The list ofinjllstices goes on
and on. Due to these procedures, and
a quote that Mumia used whell he
was fifteen years old, when he said
that"Political power grows from the
barrel of a gun," Mumia Abu·Jamal
received the death penalty.
Mumia Ahu-Jamal has spent 17
years on death row wilh no rea l
positive change in his case. He has,
however, received worldwide
support, including a new defense
team and tinancial funding. In 1995,
the newly elected governor, Thomas
Ridge, signed Mumia's death
warrant, setting a date for his
execution. His supporters flooded
the streets, and shouted loud enough
for Mumia to receive a stay of
execut ion and a new hearing.
Unfortunately, the same judge heard
his case and most of the witnesses
that testified at his original trial
changed their testimonies because,
as they said, the police coerced them
to lie at the original hearing. Albert
Sabo, stating that it was false
information, accepted none ofthis as
evidence. Mumia returned to death
row.
Last year, his final appeal on
the state level was exhausted, and on
Oct. 13, Gov. Thomas Ridge signed
Mumia's death warrant once again.
His appeal for a stay of execution has
been denied, and his execution date
is set for Dec. 2 of this year. This
means that support is absolute ly
necessary to keep him alive. Mumia
Abu·Jamal should not die without
receiving a fair trial. Watch for
showings of the film "A Case for
Reasonable Doubt." For more
information on how to get involved
contact EPIC at x6144. You are asked
to send letters to the judge, asking
that he grant Mumia Abu-Jamal a
stay ofexrcution and an evidentiary
hearing. Send letters to the judge or
Mumia' s Attorney.

When you really
haven't got
a thing to wear
to think about rape in situations between people who
know each other (acquaintance rape), we are less likely
to see it as rape. Let's clear that up right now,
Criminal Sexual Assault is penetration by force or
threat offorce. Force is the difference between rape and
romance. 111e law does not care whether tlle victim
knows the assailant or not. 11lere must be a clear and
freely given "Yes" to the act in question. Absence of a
"No" is not consent. It is tllatsimple. Let's take a elmer
look at some of the key words:
PenelTation: Most people think only ofvaginal-penile
penelTation. By law, penetration includes any orilit:e
(vagina, mOllth, anus) witll either the penis or sOllle
other object. So for example, if a person uses force or
threat offorce in obtaining oral sex (a blow job), il is
rape.
Force/Threat of Force: Along with what we
traditiollally th ink ofas force(hil1ing, kicking, etc,) Mell
need to also look at coercion and manipulation as forc('.
COllltnon acquaintancc rape tactics includr:
• Talking someone into having sex
• Using alcohol as a tool to break dO\)~1 sexual
relucta nce
• 11lreatening to harm someone, brcak lip or
sprcad ntmors
• ~ot letting someone leave a room and/u r
locking a door so the), can't leave
• U.~ i:l g one's body weigh I 10 hold sonlClIlll'
down
• Reslrailling sOIll('one/blockilig their \\'ay
When force is used, cOllsellt is 1I 0t In i~slle . II is
assulll ed llial if lilrcr was IIsed, Iherl' lI'a, no
consent.
Co nse llt: Consellt is a CIeH, fr(,ely gin'll.
verba li zed "yes" to Ih e act ill q ucstion, IJII I if
force is tJresent tve n a yes does not counl :1\
consent. The absc llcc of"lIo" is 1101 co nscnt.
Three Ihingslllcn can do, one thing E\'('rgrcell

1. Understand what COlist itl.ltes rape (set ~ 1'(1\'1')
2. Co nfront sex isl alliludes and Sl'XII,1i

Monica Hoder has trained in Ju Jitsu for five and a half years; her opponent, Scott Morgan, has trained for four.
Above, the two demonstrate Kokuma Hazushi, or Baby Bear Escape. Their teacher and owner of the ChiDoKai Dojo, Michael
Rosen, says the most effective martial art~ techniques are screaming and running away as it is the most instinctual
response to attack.
Rosen's approach to teaching is "to make trained responses into automatic responses. This takes tens of thousands
or repetitions - it's not something you can do over a weekend. We try to train people to have unnatural responses but to
learn to make them automatic. Really, it's a life-long process."
"Self defense is a wonderful thing to learn, but it you're not going to com itt, buy a gun and hope you have the
nerve to pull the trigger," Rosen said. Hoder agrees: "It's not just something I can do - it's a way of life," she said.
ChiDoKai Dojo is located at 2727 Westmore Court off of Blacklake Boulevard and can be reached at 754-1616 ,

WHAT IS EDUCATION,·PRECAUTIONS
Saving
graces
of
would-be
assault
victims
"RED
by Amy Loskota
ZONE"?
by Lindsey Fauss
,
The Red Zone affects all coll ege
students-it's a time period which la sts
from the beginning of the first yea r until
Thanksgiving break.
At this time "First year students are
most susceptible to being assaulted on
campus. either by domestic reasons or
sexual assault," said Mary Craven , student
activities advisor and former sexual assault
prevention coordinator.
First year students are most
susceptible due in part to being placed in a
brand new environment with a newfound
independance where they tend to jump
into friendships without careful
consideration.
Making friends is a way to familiarize
yourself with your surroundings. Craven
explains that nobody knows anybody and
so making friends ca n be somewhat risky.
Sometimes. misjudgemenL~ can lead to
cases of sexual assault.
"Be open to having friends but :.tlways
tell someone where you are going and who
you are going with," Craven said.
The Red Zone is a precautionary time
in which education and safety concerning
sexual assault and prevention are of utmost
importan ce. Education in the college
community is the first step in putting an
end to the overwhelming numbers of
st udents that are forced to deal with an
assault.
One day a few weeks ago, I sat up in the
S&A with most of the coordinators of the
student groups. I was really proud because
instead ofsororities or fraternities runnin g the
campus activities, we hadgroups addressing
just about every sector of this campus's needs
and cultural population, including one for the
prevel]tion of sexual assault. One in four
people you know have been sexually assaulted
in their life. That means if you co unt four
friends. odds are one has been assaulted. Men,
on the other hand. are just as likely to be
assaulted. but are less likely to report an assault
by either sex. I am honest enough to ad mit
that a few years back I was assaulted, again a
few years before that , and again in Junior High.
Its a rather embarrassing thing to admit, that
eve n as strong as I am. at the time I could not
defend myself. I was trained to be submissive
growing up, and to let men do what they will
as long as you live. It literally paralyzed me
wit h shame and sadness.
There arc many of us who were
adequately prepared for th e unfortunate dark
side of our society. Still. I do not promote fear
with these issue ,~ .
I think we should respect da nger,: a nd
take precautions aga inst it.
Never leaving your dorm, hiding behind
addictions. and distrusting everyone will get
you nowhere.
Educate yourself on what to do in case of
an assault. Leafll self-defense and have
enough sclt~ resrect to report people to the
Police. It 's never an easy thing. but YOll have
to be brave enough to stop this person from
doing it again. These are the things I have seen
happen in my career.
1. Predators who take advantage of
inexperi enced people .. One good reason to
take your intimate dealings slowly, these folks
will take any random moment of weakness
(intoxication) to get into your room. To them,
the intimate dealings of sex are commonplace
and mean nothing commitment-wise. Watch
out for large age differences (i.e. teens and
adults) and people that go from friends to
lovers in one night. You could be putting
yourself at a risk for assault and STO's. I know
at least five people who have gotten curable
STD's on-campus. As for the incurable ones,
who talks about that?
2. Do not ever go away from your
group or party with a stranger or
acquaintance. Do not get in their car and go
for a ride.
3. I have friends who have bee n assaulted. If
someone tries to touch you and you do not like
it . push him or her away and say NO. NO Is
the only word to say. These days it us the legal
safeword. If someone holds you so that you
can·t move tell them NO. If they knock you
over, or do anything that hurts you, tell them
NO. Then decide if you wish to call the police.
4. In my own personal experience drugs and
alcohol drastically effect your judgement (well
duh!) It loosens your inhibitions, and makes
you more relaxed about things that would
normal set off the safety and health a\.arms in
your head. It turns off those alarms you are
brought up with or born with to. The most
important one is the Common Sense
Alarm. This one reminds you to pay th e rent,
to use a condom. and to not eat poison. It also
helps you select safe situatiuns, i.e. would I
"JE I
rather be at a fun party with all my friends, or
should I go for a walk with John 's cousin Bob
who I just met, to the backwoods? I have seen
way too many people spend one quarter here,
get caught up with the ride, and they are gone
forever at Winter Break.
5. Domestic Violence happens to people of all
ages, married or not. If someone is hitting
their partner and you know it, call the police.
Iknow from experience that when his
girlfriend assaulted one of my friends . the
State automatically puts a restraining order on
the said involved domestic partners. It's sort
of their way of prevent escalation of the
situation. This works great to stop a
dangerous situation, where someone could
even die . Same for neglected and abused
children. If you know someone who is abusing
or neglecting their kids call the police too. And
we have Safe Place in town for women and their
kids in crisis.
.. E.vG I') rlS5£ D .,
6. If something happens to you, please talk to
someone about it. It doesn't even have to be
the Police. We have two groups in the S&A
thatcan help you. We have the Campus
Counseling Center, and the Health Center. I
know from experience that they are good and
kind people who will try to help you the best
they can free of charge.

'" think domestic viol ence can start with
nothing more than verbal abuse. The big
question for me is. when should police
interfere? When should domestic violence lose
its privacy? The laws need to be up to th e
individual. In general. people should realize
that domestic violence is anything that is
degrading to the other person. It's not a public
issue unless the person being ahllsed decides
that it is. '.
