Governor now
grad speaker?

I climbed the clock tower to find out if I could see
the water over the treetops.
It's raining hard. The drops are col~ on my face.
I lean up against the concrete bamer bare hands
turn bluish and numb
my cigarettes fallout my pocket and
on to the ground below.
It's too dark.
Black tree line blends into festering
clouds
strong gust of wind shakes
raindrops from branches.
I turn the opposite direction and
trip on a stone as
I try to cross to the other side.
My pack of smokes gets soggy In
a puddle.

the ro nlillittel' to pick the speakerlll'lu a vote,
choosing Abu-Jamal.
Things have changeu.
Welch now says they got it wrong. Thl'
governor had beeri invit ed to speak at
graduation by the graduation colTlinitl ee,
and a re ception for Alumni Atbirs by the
Presiden t 's OlTice.
Welch said when Locke declincd the
-invitalion (0 the reception bccausl' of
scheuuling con fliets, the presiden t '.~ office
mistakenly reported Locke hau declineu
speaking at gradu ati on.
Accordi ng to the Governor's office,
Locke did have trouble rescheduling an
executive cabi net retreat, but is exciteu about
his first time as th e guest speaker at a collegr
graullJ t iOIl .
So wh:lt about Mumia Abu-Jamal?
Welch said the committer wi ll come
togrther this week via ema il to discuss what
to do.
"There is a lot of energy invested in who
the speaker is," said Welch, adding he wants
to be sure "no one feels slighted." He asks,
"What's the right thing to do?"
But even though Welch says his efforts
are aimed at finding what is best for the
community as a whole, he said in the last few
weeks he's received email and voice mail from

.~tudl'nts accusing hilll o/ lying anu fahil)'illg

"We ft-l' llike it\ heen takl'n out of our

O'Hara. She ~"id the committee believed that
what th ey as a group chose to do about the
speaker problem would be linal.
Welch disagrees. He said the committee
is only making a recommendation to him and
that the final decision has been his all along; "I
let everyone know before we took the vote, that
it was advisory to me."
In (he e-mail meeting between Welch and
the committ ee, Welch said other ahernative~
to picking Locke or Abu-Jamal will be discl1.~\cd
Freeborn and O'Hara have suggested a
IS-minute taped speech by Abu-Jamal could be
played after Locke finished speaking.
"I think th e issue here," said O' il ara, "is
that students have a say-so. It 's not that

Welch pushed to not have the content s
of Ihe speaker alternat ives made known to
everyo ne before a decision is made. "This
doesn't need to be a publiC conversation right
now," he said. "Up until Thursday or Friday
Ilast week/. this was so politicized we weren:t
thinking as a commun ity."
"I don't think he really cares about what
th e students want, bllt more about how the
institution looks," said Freeborn,
Welch said the board will meet again in

be made before then.

Staff writer
Bruce Han ey showcased his first book in
Ga ll ery 2 of the Library building on
Wed nesday afternoon. In it. he recounts his
personal struggle with the effects of pesticides
and efforts to change today's policies on
harmful chemicals. He also describes his work
in the Senate on the issue of the Desert Storm
illness; his book illustrates that the government
admits to experimenting on thousands of
so ldiers with chemical warfare weapons.
Haney, who graduated from EVergreen
wi th a Bachelor's degree in Enl'ironmenta l
TESC
Olympia. WA 98505

Science . sat and signed copies of Brain Fog
from noon to five while discussing the se ri ous
issues of toxicolgy and everyday products. He
knows firsthand how dangerous "safe
products" can be to the human body after
working as a gardener from 1969 until 1984.
Even before he quit his job, symptoms of
damage began appearing in '75 or '76.
"I have the dubious honor of being the
first to prove that pesticides cause brain
dysfunction, " Haney said. His book is the
product of 12 years of research , two and a half
years of piecing it together, and a lot of years
of hell. He lost his home, fami ly. business, and
evell lived on the street fo r a while.

og

Much of his strugg le was in forcing
people to see that ca ncer isn't the onl y bad
eflec t that chemicab ca n have and much oft ll (,
sy mptom s of poisoning manifests in
behavioral changes. Inability to make
decisions , self destructive behavior.
aggressiveness, and excessive or uml'ali~t ic
worry are all just a frw of the possibile warning
signs. Some of the ('arly physical symptoms are
mllscle twitching , tig htn ess in the chest.

Al th ough tlie book rxplores toxicology,
~cicnce, and hralth, ht' abo delves into what
he ca lls "stUlllp thinkin' ," a notion he ~tumbled

upon .~nthe midst of the Cascade Mounta~,n s.

I came up with amazmganswers, he
exp lained. "What it really means to be a
human III nature, not a human on nature: when
we are gardening we think we're working with
nature, but wr're really forcing on nature. Ask
naturr what she would rather have in that plot.
It ain 't carrots."
Chemical poisoning isn't limited to
damage induced on veterans of Desert Storm
or those who don't eat organically grownloods.
Haney cites that t here arc 21l,OOO chemiral~
made daily that produce mind altering et1ech.
t\ common product like styrene "ha~ more
mind alter ing properties than LSD." Some of

Hey! Did 'ja believe it? The months-long downpour
actually lifted for a few glorious (yet brief) days last
weekend . Green e rs, always dedicated to the pursuit
of sunshine, took advantage of the rogue winter sun,
fully exlpoiting every possible ray. Yes, it's true, we
endu red, nay suffered, a record -breaking 95 straight
days of downpour and drizzle . I wonder if we'll set a
record for highest rate of students transferring, too?

SOC Anthology

Hey! Did'ja believe it? The months-long downpour
actually lifted for a few glorious (yet brief) days last
weekend. Greeners, always dedicated to the pursuit
of sunshine, took advantage of the rogue winter sun,
fully exlpoiting every possible ray. Yes, it's true, we
endured, nay suffered, a record-breaking 95 straight
days of downpour and drizzle. I wonder if we'll set a
record for highest rate of students transferring, too?

100 easy bucks

The Students of Color Anthology is
currently calling for submissions pictures, prose, and poetry for, from, and
about students of color - for their end of
the year anthology. Deadline is March
13. For more info, call x6143.

Author Bruce Haney seated at table with Jolene Unsoeld, a former
Washington Representative, talks with a Greener.

BRAIN FOG
from cover
"We're too bu sy lookin g at rainhows
to n o tice th e mud on our feet, " Han ey
sa id . " Until we see the mud, progress
ca n't be made ."
By working with his editor , Khit
Harding Adams, he said they cut away so
much material that he's having no
problems writing his second book. "I
think the power of this book is the
personal story," she said. "It rea ds like
fiction, but I found out m o re about
toxicology just by rea ding this book than
ma ny other peo ple know ... "
Haney refers to a quote from Rep.
Roc in 19'90 when he says: "We have the
mean s to change, if we had the will to do
so ... Ha ve you ever taken candy from a

bah y? If yo u did , yo u would kn ow it
screams. Tr y taking petroleum away fr om
Americans. If yo u don 't get shot you ge t
shot al. "
Th ere is hop e in all of thi s troubl e.
Haney admitted: " I h ad to hit bottom. My
son a nd I wer e talkin g the other d ay
about what a bl ess in g it was. I wa s
allow e d to see what wealth was, what
value was ... All this stuff is just baggage.
" Life ain 't fair. If I thought it was. I
chose the wrong planet," he went on.
"Life is too ser ious. Find the humor and
quit being a victim."
His most important message which
he would like to convey to Evergreen
students is simple a nd from experience.
"Quit trying to be a team and learn the
power of one. Th e p ower of o ne is
awesome.

and he never paid them back with the "right

The Shining and Full Melaljacket. Through

During the last few months one of the most
inspiring examples of individual liberation I've
seen on this campus is th e Transgendered
Discussioll Group which meets 011 Tuesdays at 4
o'clock in the Longhouse. It's a place where
people of both sexes, any sexual preference, alld
people with gender expression of any sort can
congregate to talk about gender things (issues
anq-stuff of that sort), And especially in a society
so tilled with gender norms, mental limitations,
sexism, homophobia, and oppressive beauty
ideals to which many seek to conform (myself
included some of th e time), it is so inspiring that
I can't eve n tind the words to describe it to see
people completely disregard any notions of bipolar ge nder (MAU:,'l,vD FEMALE)and decide
to play around with it. Maybe onc day deciding
to go completely "but ch", and the next to go
compl etel), "Il-lllIllC." One of th e best exa mples
uf playillg around with gender was th e recent
drag sholl' which attractl'd more peop le thell I
cOlild possibly COllnt , and was, not suprisingly,
a hit. II drag show is a drag show is fUll, but it is
eve n more amazing and inspiring to see people
fuck with gender on a regular basis as if th e onl y
difference betll'een male and female is th e
genitals that we have (a proposi tion I trnd to
agree with). And I tend to think that
homophobia and sexism come from people
taking gender more seriously then it deserves. If
people were viewed as humYn (am I being way
too overly p.e?) instead ofboy or girl, man or
WOMMON (there I go again) then how could
people possibly fall into the trap of treating one
sex as better, or superior and more importantly
how could someone possibly care what sex
someone chooses to have sexual romances with?
And if we didn't give a shit about gender,

on campus?

sincerely apologize to all who may have found
us tasteless, profane or insensitive in any way
whatsoever. We cannot express how much we
regret our puerile enthusiasm for the agenda
of the Fictional Sociology faculty,
We would like to co nfess here and now
that th ere in fact exist no organizations known
as YOSRA (Victims of Satan ic Ritual Abuse),
MAMI (Men Against Mammary Implants) or
the Sma rt Buddy Program (a volunteer
remedial program for student athletes). At no
time did we intend to undermine the integrity
of the Cooper Point Journal or the character of
any of its staff and contributors.
Our aim was to expose th e pervasiveness
of the therapeutic mentality and the extensive
influence institutions of therapism have on
nearly every aspect of modern life, We went to
extreme lengths to spark dialogue on this topic
through the satirical use of fictional
organizations, Unfortunately, we failed-no
one seemed to get it. The program aimed to

Have you ever been overwhelmed
with the urge to grab a fistful of ants, fry 'em
up, and eat them with a baked potato? Ray
Ayer has. Ray Ayer eats bugs.
While this Illay seem absurd and
disgusting, Ayer assures that is not:
"Traditionally, for thousands of year, people
have used bugs as a part of their diets, whereas
they have not traditionally used large factories
to breed cattle for profit. (Bugs) are more
sustainable."
It is the issue of sustainability that drove
Ayer to insectian ingestion. "I started eating
bugs because I was reading lots and lots about
where my food comes from. Cows, for every

100 pounds they eat, they produce 90 pounds
of waste. This is not sustainable," Ayer said.
In addition to their insustainability, animals
are also raised and slaughtered in inhumane
conditions. Bugs, on the other hand, can be
both a sustainable and humane "crop:" "To kill
them, you just put them in the freezer and they
'fall asleep .. .' I don't rear them away from their
mothers and I don't put them in unnatural
conditions. We've been brainwashed to believe
that eating meat is normal, but it's wasteful ...
we have enough food to feed everyone, but
people starve because of the way that food is
delegated," Ayer said.
Aside from humanitarian reasons for
eating bugs, they are also high in protein and
vitamins. "If you get them in the larval stage,
bugs are high in vitamins. If you get them in
the adult stage, those vitamins have been used
up to make them high in protein. You can
order them either way," Ayer said, "Crickets are
my favorite. They add good texture, and have
a nice, nutty flavor."
Ayer feels that eating insects brings him
closer to nature. "It puts me back in the food
chain. I can gather them myself and not feel
isolated from the source of my sustenance,
People don't realize how important that is,
tood is important. You can't live without food,"
Ayer said.
If you were to inquire what might make a
tasty bug treat, Ayer would suggest the
following recipe. "People like party mix, " Ayer
said.
For more information contact Ray Ayer
at ayer03@elwha.evergreen.edu,

Yum, yum give me some:
Chirpty Chex Party Mix
6 tablespoons margarine or butter
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
4 tablespoons of Tony Chachere's Creole Seasoning, plus extra for
dusting (or other seasoning spices)
8 cups assorted Chex cereals (or other dry nsweetened cereals)
2 cups crispy crickets (recipe below)
1 cup pretzels
1 cup dry-roasted peanuts
l. preheat oven to 250 degrees
2. In an open roasting pan, melt the margarine. Stir in the Worchesteshire sauce and other
seasonings.
3. Add remaining ingredients and stir ulltil each piece is evenly coated with seasoning
mixture
4. Bake 1 hour at 250 degrees, stirring every 15 minutes
5. Pour the mix into a brown grocery bag, dust liberally with seasoning, and shake

Crispy Crickets
1. To make 1 cup of Crispy Crickets, preheat the oven to 225 degrees. Strip the antennae,
limbs, and wings fTom 20 to 30 clean, frozen adult crickets or 40 to 60 cricket nymphs.
The actuaillumber may vary, depending on the life stages of the crickets being used, but
best cooking results are obtained ifall the crickets are roughly the same size.
2. Spread the stripped crickets 011 a lightly oiled baking sheet and place in oven. Bake until
crickets are crisp, around 20 minutes.

"lack of education," said John, "If you hear

Student media installations

Social issues discussed through unusual media
by Nichol Everett
Contributing writer

What is art'! The dictionary defines art (art)
11.1 , any system of rules and traditional methods

for the practice of a craft, trade, or probsion;
the application of knowledge and skill. Yrt ,
beyond th e standard definition, what is art to
YOll? Is it a piece ill a gallery? Words 011 papd?
Cramti on a wall'! Or prrhaps it is a sound, a
movement.
Suzanne Lacy, in her book Mapping the
,/i"rraill'/Vcw (;Cllre f>llhlic Art, wrote "Illtegrit y
is based 1I0t Oil artists' allegiances to their own
vi\iolls but 0 11 an integration of their ideas with
those of the commullity." The students in th e
program Contested Realities have created
installat iOlls that, by I llany definitions includillg
Suzallnt' Llcy\. arc truc art.
Throughollt the quarter, t he students have
been trackillg a particuIJr subject such as the
crisis inlr34 or Welfare Refurm, in groups offive
or Irs\, in all f()[Ins of media. The one constant
between every group's project was that they were
required to rrad the New York Tirol'S. Otherwise,
anything from the Intrmet, to Democracy Now.
to NBC Nightly News, or the Earth First! Journal

T A X

were all explored to see how their topic either
was, or, in many cases, was not represented. At
the end of an intense eight-week period of media
tracking, each group put together a media
installation regarding their subject.
The pieces were ~hown on Tuesday, March
9 on the first floor of the library. As each group
diligently set up their presentations Igot a chance
to walk around and view each 0111'. They were
incredible. From an extremely informative
installation regarding Latinos in the media,
complete with a fence guarded by a sign warning
110 0111' may enter with out valid proof of U.S.
citizenship, to a phenomenal display of political
prisoners, the presentations were a success. I
learned so much about everything from the Euro
Dollar, to WornI'll's health issues, to the Iliternet
in only a couple of hours.
Many of the projects were interactive. The
religious right presentation contained a box
covered with newspaper clippings relating to the
subject. Inside were a couple dozen objects
symbolizing different kinds of people all covered
in mud. The observer was asked to put on a pair
of rubber gloves and feel free to play with the
objects, and manipulate them. This was to create
symbolism with facts posted on a board behind

A D \ ' A :-.; TAG E D

SOL l ' T ( () ;-,; S

r

the box regarding religion in the media.
Several other installations showed videos
as a part of their presentation. The group
tracking the Kaiser Aluminum steelworkers
strike and other union representations created a
video juxtaposing the news broadcast of the rally
in Tacoma with their facts as to how the situation
occurred. Standing next to the TV was a cat made
of paper mache depicting the corporate "fat cat."
Still another project invited one to sit in a make
shift living room inside of a jail cell and watch a
video on the prison system. Hanging from the
bars ohhe cell were .~ilver spoons hung with price
tags representing the information we have been
spoon fed through mainstream media.
Many of the installations had educational
information available as well as stickers and
flyers. Due to the postponement of the Academic
Fair, the installations were not able to remain on
display in the library. They may, however, be
displayed again next quarter. I encourage
everyone to observe these projects if you have the
chance . These students spent two months
observing media in all of its forms and working
within our community to create incredible works
of art.
