Can teaching quality be enhanced by
having a "star" (non-student) playa lead
role and thus serve as a role model for
, students playing support roles?

I

Evergreen's Expressive Arts have been
the focus of concentrated observation in
recent months. Music, theater, dance,
film/video, visual arts, and creative
writing have been the subject of a series
of meetings staged by school administration. Last week, art faculty held an open
meeting for students to discuss the new
arts curriculum. The day after this meeting
the faculty gathered again, this time with
the deans to consider "the relationshi p
between performances and the academic
program at Evergreen" as a result of
"students and others" objecting to the
number of outsiders (non-students)
partiCipating I·in performances" that should
"serve primarily student instructional
purposes"

3. When is it appropriate to have more
than one non-student in a performance?
4. To what extent should TESC orient
. program-related productions to serve PR
values in the local community1
5. What conflicts might such use of
,)erformances cause in the teaching
programs?
" Pippin's'· use of non-students sparked controversy .

6. Are there ways of mitigating any
problems that arise when PR goaL are
superimposed upon the basic teaching
mission of the College?
7. Should we re-examine our (unwritten)
!JOlicy that performances should playa
najor part of the College's PR efforts in
the local commun ity?
The basis for the meeting was a student
complaint over the College's most recent
production, Pippin According to Ron
Woodbury, organizer of .the meeting,
Francisco Chateaubriand was delegated to
photo by Woody

Students gasped over Pippin's budget
before discovering th at only ~700 of the
~5.000 came from academi cs , the remain Ing money emerged from an organ izati on
called Evergreen Express ion s with the
, ondition that the production al low out'·,de groups and individual s the opportunity to perform The total spent on the

A memorandum addressed to: Bud
Johansen, Dee VanBrunt, Ainara Wilder,
Susan Aurand, Ruth Palmerlee, Sue
Washburn, Joye Hardiman, Don Chan,
Mark Clemens, the deans and the provost
invited those "involved in this matter" to
prepare for the meeting by considering
the following questions :

present concerns of the students. However
Chateaubriand declined saying, " I backed
out, I didn't want to be in conflict with
the people I'm dependent on for thi s
nroduction" (a cu rrent student produ ction
of The Shadow Box) . He chalacteflzed t he
, tudent position as ·· a series of people
who went through the audition process
and later saw the cast li st d efi cien t of
,tudents in major roles. The choru s wa,
en tirely students Wit h the excepti on ·of
one performer, and of the nl ne milln roles
two were students .'·

1 To what extent is teaching quality
in the performing arts dependent upon
the instructors allowing students to play
lead roles in performances?

•

Faculty at the meeting agreed that a
definite lack of communication had
occurred somewhere down the line. Bud
Johansen, producer/director of the show
proclaimed, "When a student complains,
the first question should be 'have you
talked to the faculty?' None of the people
who complained about Pippin came and
talked to me, I had to approach them ."
Johansen further elaborated on students
and performing, "When their going to
perform for the first time
it should be a
safe and comfortable audience and you
certainly don't spend $5,000."

share their concerns not only with the
students but in the political arena
becoming more concerned with bills in
front of the slate legislature in the four
states that we represent as wel l as at th e
federal level .
I think it is important that thf' member;hip of the group understands what the
politicians are doing in education and can
make conscious decisions on how to get
Involved . I want to make sure that haVing
an organization that serves to com municate but does not get actively involved in
effecting the political process doesn't do
us much good .

by Arthur West
Uespite apprehensions lingering from
the latest legislative attempt to close the
institution, it appears that 1983 will be a
good year for admissions at TESC. In a
period when applications are down
throughout Washington's four-year colleges, TESC's application rate is nearly 6%
above that of last year. It appears progress
has been made on the school's image in
the state of Washington. The appli cations
reveal an increasing percentage of Washington students are considering TESC.
Arnaldo Rodriguez , TESC director of
admissions has been elected president of
the Pacific Northwest Association of
College Admissions Counselors, an
organization composed of high school
counselors and college admissions
personnel from throughout Washington,
Oregon, Idaho and Alaska . Director of
Admissions at The Evergreen State College
since 1977, Rodriguez has firsthand
experience with the unique problems
posed to admissions by the schools nontraditional education and the manner in
which TESC is perce ived within the state
of Washington .
(PI: What are the objectives of the
Pacific Northwest Council of College
Admissions counselors 1
Rodriguez: PNA CAC is composed of
both co llege admissions counselors and
secondary school counselors. The group
serves as a professional body that allows
people to grow in their professions and to
share the concerns that both groups have
in common. There are two meetings a
year. Usually we consider subjects that
are of benefit to both the college and
high school counselors in the course of
their work .
(PI: What was your reaction to being
elected president of the group?
Rodriguez: There is a real sense of
pride, combined with a sense of humbleness in that the people that you work
with think enough of you as a person, an
individual, to chose you as the person to .
lead such an organization. I think that it
is good exposure for Evergreen, ·after all I

photo by Oberbillig

am not in a vacuum. I represent the
Evergreen State College to the group So I
am very pleased that Evergreen is gettin g
its name out front in the association .
Another one of the members of the
admissions staff, Christine Cooley, has just
been elected ·to be president ot the northwest group of the National Association
of Student Advisors and again that's
another example of a person from Evergreen making a positive impression of the
school.
(PI: How do you intend to further the
organization's goals?
Rodriguez: By working hard, I suppose.
That's what I asked for when I agreed to
become president~lect. I intend to insure
that both sections of the organization
continue to work to communicate and to

(PI: Do you see recent election of
TESC admissions staff to regional organizations as having a positive effect on
recruitment at TESC.
Rodriguez: I ndirectly, in the se nse that
the people that we come into contact
with, high school counselors and community co llege counse lors can see us as a
resource, to help them either professionally or otherwise. It is a way for us to
get to know them and a way for them to
get to know us. I think once we build
such relationships they might feel more
free about referring students to us and
getting to know what the college is all
about. I see these positions as having a
positive effect in both communications
and our relations with other members of
these groups.
(PI: In your 5 1/2 years as director of
admissions, what have been the major
goals and problems of the admissions
department 1
Rodriguez: I think we have a very
mixed public image. With every year that
passes, the college's record of achievement gets better. The product that the
college works with, the students complete
their education and go on, either to
graduate school, the political realm , or to
jobs in the private sector. These people
who leave the college and go on to be
productive members of the larger community, whether in Olympia, Seattle, or
out-of-state, can not help but have a
positive effect on the school.

One problem that still exists is that
Evergreen is sti ll not see n by manv students withi n the state as a v iable option
Part of ihis, I think, is due to mixed
Images , of both the education and COlnmunityat Evergreen There is a problenl
of perception . Students wonder about
whether they will fit ill "Can I see mYSe11
becoming a member of the EVC'rgreen
community1,,· is cI matter of co ncern for
many VVa,hi ngton .,tudents .
(PI: So one nMlor problem" thilt local
students are skeptical or have misgivlllgs
conc ernin g the ~vergreen edu cat ional
process I
Rodriguez: Yes , not on ly misgivings. but
I think that some of them do not have
accurate information Very often you hear
comments such as " Evergreen I That's that
hippi e ,c hool where you call do anything
you want to ." Well. that could be true
Conceivably you could be here four yea rs
and do precisely what you want In and
of itself, thi s is not bad . Of itself, it could
be very good or neutral. I t is the quality
of what you do that matters . whether the
way you have designed your educat ion
real ly does what you want it to do or
whether you hav'e iust marked time and
you as a person and a student dt the
co llege have not grown Since you ca me
here. I wou ld hope that we have no cases
like that or if we do that they wOlild be
minimal I think that there is a conceptIOn
that what we do in the classroom is so
foreign and so different that people can
not relate to it. They do not understand
that we have lectures and that we have
workshops and labs, but that on top of
these we have seminars,which is far more
than most colleges offer the undergraduate. Many institutions have no seminars
for students below the level of lunior
, Evergreen offers this type of interactive
learning experience from the start . I think
that people labor not only under misconceptions, but under a lack of information
about what is actually done here
(PI: Last month there was a serious
attempt on the part of the Democratic
caucus to oass a closure budget for TESC

Handicapped Access and Services is
dedicated to supporting students with
disabilities at Evergreen. As part of this
effort we would like to increase awareness
of barriers handicapped people face as
students .
A disabled student has volunteered to
share her thoughts apout th~ challenges
she faces as a college student here at
Evergreen. judy (not her real name) has a
visual disability which limits her capacity
for reading and writing comprehension.
Because of this she is unable to learn
through "traditional" methods and up
until a few years ago she had done
virtually no reading at all. She has been a
student at Evergreen for three years now.
Here is what she has to share about being
a disabled student here at Evergreen.
Question: How has your disability
affected your education?

Answer: Completely. Up until three
years ago I was not able to read or write
well. So consequently I was unabl e to go

been very supportive all along.

Zoske: PLU To TESe
by Claire Kuhns

photo by Oberbillig

To Arno Zoske (pronounced Zoskie)
soccer isn't just an athletic pastime, it's a
way of life. Zoske, Evergreen's newest
soccer coach, sums up his philosophy this
way: "I look at athletics, sports and movement as an art form and a way of expressing yourself." The 44-year-<>ld footballer
brings his creative approach to the athletic
department by way of several regional
college and amateur soccer teams.
Zoske played amateur soccer in
Chicago, where one of the teams he
played for won the national amateur
championsh ip. He attended Northern
Illinois University where he was soccer
team captain and most valuable player.
After he received his graduate degree
from the University of Oregon, he went to
Notre Dame to work in the school's
physical education department where he
was soccer coach and assistant athletic
trainer for the college's basketball team.
Zaske only intended to stay at Notre
Dame for two years, but it turned into

eight. He went to PLU in 1980 as men's
soccer coach and, for one year, assumed
the role of soccer coach for Tacoma Community College
In 1981 he concentrated solely on
PLU 's sports program where he worked as
soccer coach and trainer, teaching a few
physical education programs. " It was a
good part-time situation, but it wasn't full
time so the job wasn't that secure," said
Zoske.

Zoske: Really, there is no basic difference. It is an invigorating experience both
mentally and physically Exciting! A great
way to get in shape. A tremendous
conditioner because it contains most of
the components of physical fitness
aerobics, strength.
'
CPj: What would you say to Evergreen
students who would like to participate in
SOCcer as a team effort?
Zoske: Athletics are an important facet
of college life. Because of physical fitness
it adds variety and dimension. Not only to
college life, but life as a whole and sometimes represents balance. By having different experiences we come out as a better
individual. I don't feel soccer is exclusive
but it is a valuable experience.
'

about it. They do not provide ideas to'
help me alleviate the problems I face
daily. I believe that what is needed is less
sympathy and more strategy techniques .
Techniques that will help me facilitate my
education.
Q : Do faculty and staff hear what your
needs are?
A: Yes, especially at points of total
frustration. It sometimes takes great
lengths to be heard and understood .
Q: Do you think it is good that it takes
leaching a point of total frustration?
A: No, but what is good is that it will
help people to become aware of disabled
students, especially those like myself with

a hidden handicap.

A : Fi rst with awareness and concern . It
is kind of like fear of the unknown
usually people respond with a heldless
reaction.
Q: Are there ways that Evergreen could
support disabled studentsl
A: Yes. To continue awareness To
expand Handicap Access work and to
recognize that there are alternative modes
of learning.

CPJ: Soccer is taken very seriously in
Europe. Isn't it different here in the states?

A : I have found that some people compare my growth to what other students
can do and they do not realize the vast
amount of information I have gained
without prodUCing the same things as
other students . I am measured by the
number of books and papers I can write.
This measurement does not consider my
disability at aiL I am not measured by the
massive amount of information I take in
through lectures and video tapes. Facu lty
do not always understand that my learning cannot come through the " traditional "
methods. But I am capable of learning
through alternative means . I am fru st rated
when my abilities are measured In an
inaccurate way .
I want to inform people, not threaten
them when it comes to my particular
handicap. By agreeing to give these statements I hope that someone else's voice
will be heard and that the communication
gaps will be fewer in the future .

Opinion~~~~~~~~~_
Letters
Over The ·Edge
Closed Shop

By Eric Brinker

Editors:
Once a year the President of the country does one. A couple of weeks ago,
President Evans did one for the staff. And now is the time for me to do one, because
the sanrJs in the academic hourglass are runni ng out. So here it is, the first and
probably last "State of the CPj" address.

First of all, I guess I shou ld mention that both editors are still in a period of
mourning for our mentor and life role-model, Muddy Waters, who passed away last
weekend. Aside from providing music that has the ability to drive words from the
brain to the page and fuel us through those late night lay-out sessions, Muddy
Waters served as a guiding force and influence in the shaping of our lifestyles We
wil l miss him greatly.

On the overall condition of the CPI. it is safe to say that its anarchistic at best.
Not that we fee l this is a bad thing, quite the contrary it helps things from getting
monot onous . As far as the physical condition goes I didn't have time to excavate all
the ~c attered releases, newspapers, assorted junk mail and dirty socks to find out.
Suffi ce it to say., provide a nice home for wayward germs . Our coffee machine
alont' is home for at least 20 varieties of bacteria and mold.

One of the reasons we've been able to insure the complete trashing of these
offi ces in su ch a short time is the sma ller space we have to trash . As most of you
know , the CPj was moved last fall from its expansive office on the first floor of the
CAB to the crackerboxes on the third floor of the library that some people jokingly
refer to as offices Speaking for myself, I think the move was a bad one. We're too
loud and obnoxi ous to be on the same floor with all the administrative off ices. They
don 't understand us, they don't relate . People quicken their pace when they pass by
the offi ce. a look of suspicion and fear on their faces I think everyone would feel a
lot more comfortable if we could move elsewhere.

In it s hi story the ( PI ha s occ upied three office spaces The first was CAB 306,
o therlVi'e known as the Geoduck lounge. This was a prime location, I'd give a
pickur 10ad of empties for a view like that. The second was the one on the first
floor of thp CAB which is now it non-smoking section of the cafeteria and, of course,
the third are the aforementioned shoeboxes . While the Geoduck lounge is a very
nlC f' placp. I have my eye on the Ideal location The S&A office
With three off ICes, on(' of th em lar ge enough to use for a production room, and a
comf ortabl e lobby spaCE' for holding meetings and impromptu staff discussions, the
S&A of fice is a CPj edit0r's dream . Perhaps a deal could be arranged with the folks
at S&A, heck, we'd be willing to throw in a couple of first round draft choices .

J'm glad to report that the produ c tion process of the paper will be advancing into
the 20th century soon . We have a new waxer that dates our old one by 80 years.
The old waxer we're mai ling to the Smithsonian . Next fall the MCS (Modular
Compos ition Sys tem) will be in use . This machine will be a welcome relief to our
type,et ter, Shirley, Without whom this paper would never get to press. Don't let all
thi S hi gh toc h scare you , we'rf' not going to turn into machines. I sti ll listen to Hank
Willi ams and have an occasional bowl of granola.
In conclusion , let me say that the Cooper Point journal has been a college newspaper, it is a college newspaper and it will continue to be a co llege newspaper.
Pl ea,e rememher that all donations are welcome and they are tax deductible.

I would like to point out to those who
are not yet aware that the union is on
campus. The union is not merely an
option for employees who feel that it
provides the best forum for consideration
of campus employment matters. The
union is a requirement; all new classified
employees must join the union within the
30 days of their employment. All cu rrent
employees are required to jOin the union
or forfeit their jobs.
I do not believe that the advent of the
union, to this extent, is a benefit to the
Evergreen commun ity. I do believe it is
good and right that the union be available
at Evergreen, providing membership for
employees who believe it to be the best
means of addressing grievances. Forced
membership is somewhat alien to my
definition of free choice. The majority
vote obtained last December to require
classif ied staff to join the union seems
inadequate on a campus where consensus
is, if not always practical, still the ideal
means of settling any question. The idea
of a majority of classified staff making the
decision to require the union also seems
i nadequat~; an issue that effects the
entire Evergreen community is resolved
without the voices of students, faculty,
administrators or managers in the election.
As stated above, the choice of whether
or not to join the union no longer rests
with the individual employee . It is my
understanding that I am not the only
employee who will not accept losing the
right to choose to Join the union, nor do
I believe I am the only employee who will
be fired for refusing to Join the union.
Please recognize that, despite the many
benefits the union may offer, it is not an
unmixed blessing. Though I will not be
here to lean the outcome, I hope members of the campus community vote later
thi s year to return individual choice to
campus employees.

Absence of Malice?
Editors :
This letter is in response to the article
written 4/ 26/ 83 about the supposed

"Graduation Controversy." The woman
who wrote the article must be involved in
the script writing for Absence of IV\alice II,
only this time jordan Pollack is the
victim, not Paul Newman . She took
quotes out of context and misconstrued
facts. At best, the article was an attempt
to undermine the main objective of the
Graduation meetings. Anyone attending
those meetings can attest to its democratic process. Please, I urge you to
attend and find out for yourself what we
are trying to do.

Thank you,
Helen lee Fox
Core Committee, Graduation 1983

Trilateral Dan
Editors,
Graduation Day approaches - the
beginning of summer, according to the
calendar imposed upon us by the agents
of the Trilateral Commission. As we
approach the last summer before 1984
let us ask ourselves why we were gran~ed
this unique educational opportunity-and
let us remember that, other than the
window-<lressing of local residents, we are
predominantly children of the enlightened
ruling class. The same progressive liberals
who have given us civi l rights and think
tanks and welfare, as well as Attica and
Vietnam. (The Butcher of Attica was
nominated for President at a convention
whose keynote speaker, the Butcher'S
protege, the Trilateral man, is now Evergreen President.)
Graduation Day, this fundamental Rite
of Passage is a culture nearly void of
tradition and ceremony, is a marvelous
opportunity to declare (to yourself, at
least) whether you will faithfully take
your place among the Best and Brightest
in Brave New America, or join those of us
who have already opted for the alternative - to live and grow in our own way,
seeking to follow the Light within an everexpanding web of commun ity, growing
up, like the web of our ecosystem, from
the dark, rich mud of our Northwest
home.
Perhaps, rather than attending the President's Reception, you might join with
you r brothers and sisters for an alternative, Free Celebration-one close to the
sea and mud that support us all.
Love,
Doug Riddels

Legislation That Could Affect Your Education
by Gail Pruitt
A residency bill, reciprocity and Vietnam vets tuition bills, a credit transference
bill and a campus traffic offense measure
were some of the bi lis passed by the
Washington State legislature pertinent to
higher education students.
Though the session still continues,
these bills have already been signed or
are on their way to the governor to collect
his signature and enact them into law.
Here is a run-<lown on the bills and their
effect on students.

This law rectifies the situation. The law
says that students who were classified as
residents based on the old requirements
on or before lV\ay 31, 1982, are still to be
considered resident students as long as
they were enrolled during the 82-83
academic year and remained continuously
enrolled except for summer session.
5MB 409 and SB 3492 - Reciprocity Bills

SHB 334 - The Residency bill

Previously, students in border counties
in Oregon were allowed to go to Washington border community colleges and
150 Washington students were allowed to
attend upper division classes at Portland
University and pay in-state tuition.

The legislature changed residency
requirements last year. In changing the
law, legislators forgot to exempt students
who were already in school and considered residence. Therefore, Evergreen
students and many resident students
around the state were reclassified under
the law as non-residents.

SHB 409 expands this idea and mandates that any Washington student
attending a college in Oregon and vice
versa can pay in-state tuition. I n the first
few years of this agreement, the numbers
of students will probably have to be
limited so one state does not take on
more of a burden than another.

SB 3492 sets up the same agreement
with Idaho. The bill also proposed to
negotiate with British Columbia schools to
lower their admission standards to admit
more students from the U.S. in exchange
for in-state tuition for B.C. students.
British Columbia does not have out-ofprovince tuition, but they do not accept
many students outside of the province.
Again, the bill only sets up negotiation
with British Columbia.
SHB 848- Vietnam Veterans Tuition
Current law sets Vietnam veterans'
tuition at 1977 levels. Once enrolled they
receive the tuition benefit for the rest of
their life. But veterans needed to enroll
before lV\ay 7, 1983.
This law extends the tuition waiver to
1989 and ends the program in 1995. The
reason legislators passed the extension
was that veterans came back from the war
and the climate was not good for going to
school. Veterans felt alienated from the

student population. As time goes on,
more and more find that they want to go
back to school, so the law was extended.
Other bills include one that mandates
that the Council on Post-secondary
Education set a policy for transferring to
different colleges. The bill attempts to
prevent situations where students are
denied community college credit or are
denied access to a university because the
university failed to accept community
college grades.
Another bill allows campus police to
adopt rules for parking violations and
collect fines for the violations.
Also, for those taking weekend classes,
the date for refunding money is extended.
A financial aid bill for needy students
and a bill providing training for high
technology at colleges and universities
have not passed yet. Both sti II have a
chance to pass but their chances grow
dimmer as the legislative session winds
down .

Russell New Chief

WashPIRG Needs You

by Claire Kuhns

by Annette Newman

Gary Russell, who has served as acting
Evergreen Chief of Security three times in
his ten years on campus, was recently
named to fi II that post on a permanent
basis. According to Ken jacob, Director of

to tough economic times. He also said the
resentment displayed toward authority
during that era is not as immediately
apparent.
Drug use seems to be down on Evergreen's campus, but it appears there may
be an increased use of alcohol. Criminal
acts occurring on campus property are
considerably less than that of other
schools comparable in size, and oncampus studies have shown that acts of
vandalism, automobile theft and other
petty crimes are usually committed by
individuals outside the Evergreen area.
As the new Security Ch ief, Russell has
already implemented a new phase. There
are now three sergeants; one for each of
the three shifts during a 24-hour period .
These sergeants act as shift commanders
and serve in the capacity of helping
personnel to access situations and make
positive decisions, lending assistance
wherever possible.

Auxiliary Services, "There were many
comments about Gary's unique ability to
effectively balance Security's functions
with Evergreen's philosophy."
Russell, a graduate of Alaska's Methodist University, spent 6 1/2 years on the
City of Anchorage's police department
where he gained experience as a patrolman, traffic officer, and worked with the
juvenile department. At 38, his youthful
appearance and enthusiasm cou ld almost
make one mistake him for one of Evergreen's students.

Requirements for a position in the
Security department, according to Russell
are two years experience in law enforcement or two years of college with law
enforcement courses, and a heavy
emphasis on support, tact, diplomacy,

The Evergreen Chapter of WashPIRG
(Washington Public Interest Research
Group) is approaching a critical point in
its information . Two important processes
are cu rrently underway; both which will
be instrumental in determining the direction and form that the organization will
take in the future.
• First, WashPIRG is preparing for the
election of the board of directors.
Nominations are open now and will close
on May 13. The elections will take place
the week of May 23-27. Second, the
chapter's by-laws are now being formu lated and hopefully will be completed by
the end of the Quarter.
The seven-member board of directors
will be responsible for choosing and
allocating funds to pro jects here at Evergreen. They also wil l send representatives
to the WashPIRG state board of directors;
and work with the state executive director
to hire staff. To qualify to run for the
WashPIRG board of directors you (1) must
be an Evergreen student who plans to be
enrolled throughout this coming academic
year, 83-84, (2) be willing and able to
attend regular WashPIRG meetings,
(3) agree with the purposes and goals of

the organization , (4) be ir,terested 1!1
public interest issues. No prior experience
with WashPIRG is necessary, just the
:lesire to get involved with this new and
,xciting addition to the Evergreen campus
If you are interested in running for the
WashPIRG board of directors, know
, omeone who is or just want more
information about the organi zati on vi sit
the WashPIRG table in the CAB Tuesday
and Thursday next week or call Annette
Newman , evenings, 866-9263 .
Currently a committee of involved
students is working to write the by-laws,
a document which w ill reflect the spiri t
and structure of the Evergreen chapter of
WashPIRG . Input is welcome, to get
involved just visit the table in the CAB.
WashPJRG's immediate goal s are to
elect a board of directors, compl ete the
by-laws and by late August have a fully
operational office at Evergreen . WashPIRG
wants to hit the floor running come fall
'83, ready to handle internships, provide
interesting and rewarding work-study
positions and begin work on projects .
The only thing missing is you . WashPIRG needs your ideas, input and energy
to make WashPIRG a success here at
Evergreen.

In the course of an interview Russell
articulately brought out some of his
personal views and philosophies. He feels
today's students show more concern with
academics and intellectual pursuits. He
thinks these factors have taken precedence over the drug culture which flourished on college campuses during the
sixties and mid-seventies, and part of the
reason for this change in attitude is due

Political Ecology On Hood Canal

by Todd Litman

You might be surprised how much
bicycles have in common with big trucks
and buses. While I was studying the
Washington Guide for Truck Drivers and
Bus Drivers, I found severa l passages
which apply equally well to bicyclists :
" Drivers of heavy vehicles or combinations should generally keep to the right
except when preparing to turn left or pass
another slow-moving vehicle."
" You can help the passing motorist by
pulling as far over to the right side of the
lane as possible and slowing to allow
them to complete pass quickly."
Bicycles and heavy vehicles have a lot
in Common because they both tend to be
slower than the rest of traffic. There are
simple rules that apply to any slow
moving vehicle, whether it be a bike,
truck, or car. When you are keeping up
with traffic, or at an intersection, you are
free to take up a full space by riding in
the middle of the lane. As soon as you
are riding slower than traffic, follow these
special rules .

How has thi s affected the admissions

Rodriguez: Only to the extent that it
has made us damn angry. We work very
hard and I mean that sincerely. The
admissions cou nselors travel a tremendous
amount, visiting different groups, community colleges, high schools and
conferences It is very di scouraging to
have a threat to close the school happen
at a time when many students are making
a decision as to which institution they
wi ll attend. I nternally I think we felt confident that the threat would not materi alize 'ust as other threats in the past had

publicized in reaction to the closure
threat was that while the application rates
at all of the other colleges in Washington
are below that of last year, Evergreen's
applications are 5% above last year's 1
level at this time. What IS behind thiS .
Rodriguez: I think it is a reflection of
how hard the admissions staff and many
other offices of the college have worked
in terms of attracting students to the.

encouraged to interact, rather than react.
In the 12 years it has been in operation
there is not a single instance where a
complaint has been lodged regarding
excessive force. Security personnel are not
armed. Situations are handled with verbal
negotiation . Russell said, "Intelligent
individuals should be treated in an
intellectual manner."
It is the philosophy of Evergreen that it
is far better to resolve internally any
situation which involves a student and the

advantage of all concerned. That is why

stude nts do not have this view. We have
had a lot of phone ca ll s on this matter.
Thf' Port land Oregonian had a story o n

hut there was no follow-up story after the
threat had passed. I p ersonally ta lk ed to

and I would say that for 98% of the
people that approached my table for

Campus Security issued a memorandum
this week, firmly denying rumors that
"flying saucers" have been s~n hovering
oY@!' an area southwest of the TESC
campus, near the tip of Eld Inlet.'

Remember that it is the faster vehicle
which has the legal obligation to make
sure that it is safe to pass. It is definitely
illegal for a motor vehicle to force a
bicyclist off the road. As a courtesy and
a legal obligation, you should help
vehicles pass you by staying over to the
right side of the lane. For instance, as a
courtesy you may want to pull off the
road, onto the shoulder if it is in good
condition, but it is your obligation to get
off the road only if you have more than
five vehicles stuck behind you .

" Such rumors only add to the rising
level of hysteria around here this close to
graduation time. Frankly, we're afraid all
hell's gonna break loose one of these
days, if folks don't settle down and ~it
the books instead of hanging out waiting
for the Martians or whatever," said a
Security employee who wished to remain
anonymous.
Rumors that a " Martian or whatever, "
calling himself Ralph, had appeared to a
group of students at a party in A-Dorm,
are unconfirmed. According to the rumor,
the students were told that the flying
saucers wou ld return on June 5 to take
away, according to the alien, "those who
are ready" to a higher state of reality .
Security is asking for the cooperation of
the entire Evergreen community in
squelching these rumors .

A bicyclist has the right to be on the
road and you shou ldn't be afraid to make
use of it. There are a few situations which
require special consideration :

1. You need to be visible if drivers ;re
to maneuver safely around you . At night
every bicyclist needs to have a good rear
light. Curves, hills, glare, fog and rain can
all reduce visibility. Always take them
into account.

Most traffic lanes have a white line
marking their right margin or have parallel
parking. Where there is a white line or
curb, ride a foot or two to the left of it,
into the lane. Where there is parallel parking, stay far enough to the left of parked
cars to avoid any opening doors.

Hood Canal is a largely undeveloped
watercourse west of Puget Sound and
bordering the Olympic Mountains. Its
shores are dotted by small unincorPorated
towns , and it is the tranquil atmosphere
and abundance of natural resources that
make Hood Canal so attractive to people
seeking the beauty of an unadulterated
environment. However, it is preCisely
these profuse resources that also attract
people wishing to exploit them.
The Hood Canal Environment Council
(HCEC) was first organized in 1969 in
response to a development proposal in
the Anderson Cove area. HCEC became a
watchdog organization devoted to main- .
taining the environmental integrity of the
Hood Canal basin. It is a private nonprofit organization consisti ng of a
decision-making bOard of directors and
approximately 200 members, most of
whom reside in the Hood Canal area.
The council seeks to educate and to
interest citizens, as well as government
agencies, in environmental protection. It
pUblicly supports activities that promote
environmental health and opposes those
which are harmful. This involves constant
monitoring of all proposed developments
and activities, natural resource management plans, and environmental legislation .
As Donna Simmons, the council's president, explains, " We owe it to future
generations to see that development or
activity which takes place in the Hood
Canal basin will be judged in the light of
. their best interest."
Presently, the Hood Canal watershed is
the site of many development proposals

--f
that the council feels are potentially
damaging. Several hydroelectric projects
have been proposed on rivers in the area.
They can affect migrating salmon and
steel head and disrupt the forest ecosystem. HCEC is currently reviewing draft
environmental impact statements for each
proposal and will issue its recommendations to the appropriate government
agencies.
Concerning the proposed South Fork
Skokomish hydroelectric project, HCEC is
conSidering filing for intervenor status
with the federal licenSing agency during
the review process. The council believes
that this particular project represents a
major threat to wi ldl ife and fish
HCEC is also active in monitoring
wilderness status changes, forest land
management proposals, and revi sions to
the State Environmental Policy Act. The
counci l strongly opposed the Northern
Tier Pipeline Company's plans to const ruct
an oil pipeline along the west side of

" The battle for protection of the environmental integrity of ou r forests,
waters, and wildlife is heating up. We are
up against some very powprful interests in
our fight to protect and preserv(' our
natural resources," noted Simmon~ .
HCEC does not indi scriminately oppose
development, but seeks to ensure :hat
proposed projects have a minimum
impact on the environment. The council
is simp ly dedicated to preserving the
natural beauty and unique environment
of the Hood Cana l basin .

Nona Knows Good Material
by David Gaff

Three songs stand out above the rest on
0 ne Down. These are " Take a Chance, "
'Don't lose Control" and the best song on
Ihe album, "Time Out. " All three songs
have one thing in common, the vocorder
which is used sparingly but effectively by
Michael Beihorn. Nona Hendryx helps out
on "Take a Chance" and "let Me Have It
A ll," both sim il ar to " Bustin' Out" which
was also sung by Hendryx.

From time to time, musical groups rely
on outside musicians and vocalists to add
new perspectives to their music. The
group Material however, relies almost
exclUSively on outside influences. Material
began in New York as a three-person
experimental band consist ing of Bill
laswell -bass, Michael Beinhorn-keyboards
and Fred Maher-drums. In addition to the

most noteworthy female singers and
musicians in music today. They include
Gina Shock, Tina Weymouth, Nancy
Wilson, laurie Anderson, Dolette McDonald and Patti labelle.
Hendryx as a singer knows how to use
her voice as a strong background to both
music and lead vocals. She includes no
less than three to six background vocali sts
on every song. Though Nona Hendryx'S

better albums to be released in the last

Hood Canal. The pipeline would have
crossed five major rivers and numerous
streams and the counci I felt that the
result would have been degradation of the
marine and forest ecosystems.
Private project proposals are also
closely monitored. HCEC is concerned
with the cumulat ive effects on fisheri es
and the marine habitat from many types
of private shoreline developments, such as
piers, docks, bulkheads, and poor sewage
systems.
