Now THAT THE COLD WAR IS OVER, Romanians have entered

a new era of free market reforms and budding capitalism.
But before they can move on, they must deal with a disastrous
legacy left by former leader Nicolae Ceausescu: a burg~on~ng
population of homeless families and orphans numbenng 10 the
thousands.

Several hundred thousand children live in orphanages
through.oot Romania-the result of a Cea~s,escu-led population
drive that was intended to bolster Romanta s labor force . The
orphanages have little control over the children. Some run away

hungry and cold to stay away.

Williams was fatally shot on Monday, Oct. 31,
in a suspected murder that took place in his
Lacey residence.
Williams, 44, was a student at the
Tacoma campus and was very active in student
governance, serving on campus DTFs and
being a role model for student members of
Umoja. Last year he was involved in the search
committee to hire a new First Peoples Advising
Services Director.
Williams functioned as a liaison and
facilitator of communication between the
Olympia and Tacoma campuses.
According to Thurston County Sheriff's
Department Lieutenant Dan Kimball, 19-year~
old Hyson J. Sabb was arrested Tuesday for the
death of Williams.
Sabb is the son of Williams' girlfriend
and was reportedly angered because according
to police in The Olympian, Williams reportedly
"took exception to the youth's lifestyle."
According to the police report, Sabb and

MIT Program faces cuts

due to budget

by Catherine Wilson
CPJ Contributor

Beginning next year, the Master
in Teaching (MIT) Program at TESC
will be cut in half due to budget cuts.
The MIT Program, which was
preceded by an undergraduate teacher
education program, began in 1990.
The current system is a two year
co-ordinated study, which in the past
has enrolled 60 students each year.
"It's [the MIT Program) about
learning how learning takes place and
learning how to facilitate that
learning," said Jan Kido, the MIT III
c:
Program Director.
~
The program will now begin a ~
cycle every other year instead of its ..,
previous annual enrollment.
~
This is because 1993 initiatives ~
are forcing Washington Statno lower :
its budget. Public colleges and .c
universities are the first to fall victim to 2
the lack of funds.
~
"This budget reduction has Q.
impacted every state institution," Kido
notes.
Nevertheless, she regrets the cuts,
believing that because of its unique learning
philosophy, TESC is the ideal place to train
future teachers. She understands, however,
that when faced with budget reductions TESC
must support its liberal undergraduate
education, which is at the heart ofEvetgreen.
Unfortunately, this requires sacrifice from the
MIT Program.
"My hope is, of course, that it's
temporary," Kido asserted.
The students suffer most from the
budget cuts. Many TESC students who will
earn bachelor's degrees this year had planned
to enter the MIT Program in 1995.
Now they will have to wait a year or

Long Range Planning DTF
by Derek Birnie
CPJ Contributor
Students in the debate over the
proposed switch to semesters may want to
pay attention to the work of the Long Range
Curriculum DTF this year. The group is
reexamining Evergreen's landmark
curriculum structure and drafting proposals
for reform. The possible outcomes range
from minor changes to a complete departure
from the educational model that has
characterized Evergreen since its inception.
The Disappearing Task Force was
formed as a result of a charge from last year's
Long Range Planning DTF. Fundamentally,
the DTF is charged with proposing changes
to the curriculum structure which will allow
Evergreen to meet the needs of a growing
population, serve a conscious mix of
students, speak to student needs as we
approach the 21 st Century, remain innovative
in the community of higher education, and
meet the changing interests and needs of the
faculty.
"Disappearing Task Force" is term
used to describe temporary work committees
co nvened to examine specific issues of
importance at Evergreen.
The
"disappearing" nature of the body is intended
to circumvent the development of a
committee with too much power.
The DTF conducted three, all day meetings
this summer and continues to meet as a whole
or in smaller subcommittees through the
school year. Currently, the work is being
conducted through two main subcommittees
examining the first year curriculum, the
second through fourth year curriculum, and
four short-term committees: Emerging
Technologies; Shape of the Degreel
Culminating Projects; Part-Time and
Evening Studies; and 'Skills Across-tbecurriculum.
The full Task Force will reconvene on
Wednesday this week and continue to meet
on Wednesday afternoons for at least the
following two weeks . These are open
meetings; all interested parties are
encouraged to attend.
The biggest tasks of the main body have
included drafting of the charges to the
committees, and an examination of the

Erotica
Stepping off the bus and into the cafe, I glanced over
at the object of my most recent desire . Drops of rain
weighed down on my face more then my heavy frown .
These desires I have, they aren 'l going to happen. Nothing
happens in Olympia. Nothing happens in the grey that
invades our every waking moment. I walked over, laid it
aU on the table and just said aloud, "I like you."
My hands slipped over the soft white curves and my
lips felt warmth. A tilt of my head and a mutual skew of
my desire, we were there. I felt warm and wet as it slid over
my tongue. 1think I might have even moaned.
I had promised myselfI would never fall in love again.
1was wrong. I love coffee, and yes, I stilI love Olympia.

question, "What values do we share?".
The discussion of the values question,
an important step in that it would guide consideration of changes, provided for a level
of debate which might surprise some students. Concepts which some members of the "Evergreen Community" consider to be central values, such as the seminar as an
educational tool, came under the scrutiny of the
DTF, according to Brian
Coppedge, one
of the student
members.
Other debates
included Community vs. Autonomy,
Breadth vs.
Depth, Student
Independence
vs.
Institutional Guidance, etc. The
outcomes of
these debates
will effect all
of the curriculum di sc ussions around
such iss ues as
degree requirements, specialty area s
and program
structures.
Many members of the DTF feel that
student input is critical to the DTF's success.
In addition to seeking students to participate
in the work of the committees and subcommittees, the DTF will be convening "focus
groups" to examine some issues . This pro-

student participation

cess involves gathering a group with specific
characteristics, such as second year students,
and facilitating discussions to get a representative range of views on a variety of topics.
Vice President for Student Affairs
Art Costantino has already sent
out mailings to some targeted
groups inviting participation
in focus groups.
"Some
students may
already have
received these
mailings. We
are hoping to
get a big response ," said
Jeanne Hahn ,
Chair of the
DTF, adding
that !Iny stu. dent wishing to
be involved
should contact
the DTF.
The six
st ud e nt s included in the
make-up of the
DTF have also
formed an informal co mmittee to explore ways to
ensure that student input is
considered to
the fullest extent possible.
"The responsibility for a studentoriented DTF statement lies with the
students. We need to be creative about
finding ways to get involved,'~ says
Coppedge_ The Student Committee's top
priority will be to build a focus on the top

issues on a common student agenda.
Stressing the need for student
involvement, Coppedge pointed out the
different interests and approaches taken by
faculty, staff, and students.
"I see one of tbe students'
responsibilities as to remind the
administration that students ·see themselves
as here to get an education, not as consumers
of a product. I realize that, in light of current
budget problems, there may be a tendency
to lose sight of that."
The committee has contacted several
other schools to seek models for student
involvement in curriculum design and
reform, but have not had much success. UC
Santa Cruz, for example, a school very
similar to Evergreen in the aspects of
interdisciplinary education and team
teaching, has no student representation in this
process. Another proposal being considered
is hosting a series of debates focusing on the
issues being discussed.
Those interested in getting involved, or
just finding out more about the process, these
are things you can do:
Review the DTF documents. collected
in a binder which is being held on open
reserve at the circulation desk at the library.
Write the DTF e-mail address with
input
or
questions:
Ircurdtf@elwha.evergreen .edu
Contact the DTF about participating in
one of the focus groups.
Volunteer for participation in one of the
short-term subcommittees. Also, the yearlong committee on first-year curriculum is
seeking someone who can represent a
younger perspective.
Talk to one of the st udent
representatives: Mikko Ambrose, James
Spencer, Adam Ward, Anne Wessels or Brian
Coppedge.

Retaining students of color has been a
documented problem at Evergreen and First
People's Advising Service wanted to address
the unique needs of students of color to
encourage retention.
The Mentoring Project First People's
Advising Services is a program that helps
students of color feel like a part of this
community and feel more comfortable on a
predominately white campu~ .
The project matches up students of
color with "mentors", faculty or alumni of
color who can provide tools to help the
student adjust to a campus with very few
people of color.
Ricardo Leyva-Puebla, Director of First
People's Advising Serives, is the Coordinator
of the program.
The program starts by finding mentors
for the upcoming academic year. The
mentors are required to fill out an extensive
application about their background and to
attend an orientation session before the
school year begins.
During the first week of fall quarter
there was ajoint meeting where the students,
who also filled out an application, met with
certain mentors to decide which one they felt
comfortable talking to.

Once a quarter, all the mentors and

Hopefully, because of the opportunity
for students of color to meet with people that

will feel mor comfortable at Evergreen and

Examining the Americans with Disabilities Act: Part Two
by Rob Keefe
CPJ Colllriburor
After last·week's talk of federal funding
and facilities upgrades, what remains is a
dialoge between students and the college.
In this second in stallment. the CP1
spoke with the college's primary player.
Linda Pickering. From her office in the
Student Advising Center. she is the American
with Disabilities Act (ADA) coordinator and
the access service provider for students with
disabi Ii ties.
When assisting students with
accessability issues. she looks at a variety of
issues including, "Who the student is, what
their needs are. and how this office can help
them ."
"Basically." Pickering adds. "whatever
their needs are we try real hard to meet them."
The needs are diverse : books on tape.
hearing assisting devices. tutors. note takers.
Some penain to advocacy issues: interfacing
with faculty . registration or various
departments on campus. She also seeks to
obtain matching funds from grants to acquire
expensive equipment purchases.
Pickering adds, "It's a very
indi vidualized situation with each student,
you could have five students with learning
disabilities and there's no way you can
compare. they don't have the same needs."
The requirements of the ADA "hasn't

therefore whatever accommodations that are
suggested can be followed by someone who's
not necessarily an expert."
Brown would like the college to move
to provide more assessments, either in-house
or through outside agencies.
"In some programs in other parts of the
country, such as Boise State, part of the staff
is a learning disabilities specialist," he
explains.
With recent budget reductions, Brown
would like the college to pursue grants to
meet such goals. He states, "It is something
I think should be looked into and possibly
pursued when the next application period
comes around."
For now, Pickering and her staff seek
to meet the needs of students as they come

of Students with Disabilities, says of her,
"Linda Pickering does an excellent job. She

Fund used to increase cultural diversity at Evergreen
by Lyn Iverson
CPJ Intern
Two years ago. in response to
community tension. President. Jane Jervis
created a fund for diversity programs here
at TESC. This was in response to concern
regarding the lack of actual cultural
diversity, despite TESC priding itself on it.
Concepts to be addressed in these
programs were better training in'regards to
issues of the grievance process. sexual
assault on campus, treatment of women of
co lor and the lack of women of color in
faculty and administration positions.
It was deci ded that it would be best if
the training was brought from outside the
TESC community so that the faculty and
staff could participate in the training as well
as the students.
Paul Gallegos, Special Assistant to the
President for Equal Opportunity, and Lee
Lambert, Special Assistant to the President
for Civil Rights, are currently in charge of
the diversity fund allocations.
The purpose of the diversity fund, as
Gallegos underst and s it, "is to promote
community understanding and dialogue. and
promoting ski li s related to cultural

diversity," said Gallegos.
Gallegos said that he understands the
meaning of cultural diversity to go "beyond
race, skin color and ethnicity, to include other
cult ural constructs like class, sexua l
orientation and gender."
"We're talking about bringing activities
to campus that heighten our awareness about
the value of acknowledging those
distinctions and how those distinctions affect
our interactions consciously and
unconsciously." said Gallegos.
According to Gallegos, work has been
done this year with the National Coalition
Building Institute "to develop the talents of
the community in a grass roots way."
The goal in having NCBI involved is
for people "to be aware of their own
prejUdices and to confront those things in a
way that recognizes them as a part of the
human dynamic and not approach i: from a
labeling and guilt driven model.
But more of an ap proach of
empowerment and ... appreciation for one
anothers relative experience with prejudice ...
and a pers pective that we can by
acknowledging it and recognizing it. without
blaming. overcome it and celebrate who we
are." said Gallegos.

THE COOPER POINT JOURNAL

by Dawn Hanson
CPJ Contributor
The S&A Board for the j 994-95
school year has been selected, and its
members are as diverse as the student body
it serves.
The board allocates funds taken from
the tuition each student pays. "From each
student's tuition, $100 is taken," says S&A
Coordinator Dante Salvatierra, "which
amounts to about $1 million per year." It is
the board's responsibility to appropriate this
money into the budgets of each of the S&A
organizations.
This year is especially important
according to Salvatierra because it is the
beginning of a new biennium, meaning the
nine member body will be voting on the
major budgets for childcare services, CRC,
KAOS, and Cooper Point lournal for the
next two years.
This fall, the annual budgets for the
Women 's Center, S&A organizations. and
Bike Shop shall be decided. Later this
winter, the board shall be voting on special
funding for events not usually allowable
under an organizations normal budget like
for obtaining a speaker or group to come to
Evergreen. .
Past projects funded by the board
include the building of the gym in the CRC
and the third floor extension of the CAB,
where most of the S&A organizations are
held.
As for this year's board, the six voting
and three alternate member were selected
from a pool of 30 applicants. Twenty-five
of the 30 went through the interview
process, while the remaining five failed to
reach one of the requirements necessary to
be on the board or simply could not be
reached.

NEWS
The 1980s are back and we are concerned. The Congresspeople that we are
sending to the United States Congress no longer represent our needs.
We are concerned about the protection of reproductive rights. We are
concerned that the Republicans in Congress will not protect the essentail
social services for the poor and working poor of this country. We are
concerned that vital educational services that assist economically and socially
disadvantaged children,like Head Start, will be sacrificed.

We are concerned that the gap between the rich and poor will
continue to grow as it did during the Reagan/Bush
administrations. We are concerned that the criminal justice
system will predominantly focus on punishment instead of
prevention programs. We are concerned that Queer issues will
be ignored or worse, Queer rights will be trampled on.
We don't want to return to the 1980s when basic civil rights
were in danger. We don't want to have the same
fights that we had in the 1980s again. We want to
move on and fight for real change, not simply work
to preserve the changes that we have already won.
The outcome of the '94 election has been
illuminating. We now know that there is much we
need to do to protect progressive values and
ideals. The Clinton administration offered us
hope that this country would move to policies
that recognized the civil
rights of all people. Now

The Pavilion is getting a face lift. Nicknamed "the
Ghetto" by those who live nearby, the outdoor basketball
court is finally being remodeled.
According to Robert Holmes, Construction
Coordinator, the project is quite extensive. Already, the
rotten wooden seating has been removed and a new
foundation, new floors, and a fresh paint job are planned.
The remodeling was considered necessary due to the
poor condition of the seating and floors. The hope is that
the changes will increase use of the facilities.
During the beginning stages of the endeavor, a crack
was discovered in one of the beams. Temporary measures
have been taken to repair this structural damage.
The current plan is to wait until the next biennium for
more stable repairs.
However, once the Pavilion is again in use it will no
longer accessible all hours of the day. A permanent fence
with a locked gate will be erected in order to prevent the
vandalism that has occurred in the past.
During daylight hours the Campus Recreation Center
plans to hold activities in the area.
The funding came from the capitol project which was
made requested for the 1993-94 biennium budget. The
Campus Recreation Center is paying for some of the project,
including the fencing.

"State of Evergreen"

by Tom Freeman
Contributor

To the Editor:
I am writing regarding a public health concern that needs
our attention. It is flu season again. Many people from campus
are already sick; undoubtedly more of us will become ill in the
weeks ahead. During this time of high virus transmission, it is
important to remind people to wash their hands with hot water
and soap, many times each day.
I am appalled by the number of people I see leave the
restroom without washing thei r hands. This is a health hazard!
"Dirty Hands Spread Disease" is not just a slogan; it is a reality.

Here's a list of things I've noticed people doing with their
spare time lately:
1. Remodeling their spice racks
2. Becoming state representatives
3. Hanging out in front of the Community Center
4. Starting Cyndi Lauper fan clubs
5. Hanging out in front of the CAB
6. Going over to friends' houses, hanging out and talking
about nothing.
7. Hanging out on Red Square
8. Hanging out at the pool
~
While these are all worthwhile agendas to pursue, I think
that we pretty much have our bases covered here at Evergreen
when it comes to these past times. Fear not, there are plenty of
people hanging out at the Community Center (although we
could muster higher attendance at the pool if we really tried.)
I have been working with the folks down at Big Brothersl
Big Sisters and the word from them is that they really need
people to come and spend some of their spare time with kids.
Perhaps you've heard of this organization or perhaps not.
It was originally founded in 1903 on the principle that a healthy
relationship with an adult could create a positive impact on

the life of a child who was undergoing some sort of stress. The
kids that apply for Big Sisters or Brothers are mostly from singleparent homes. They might be "acting out" or they might be shy
and reserved. The main similarity between all of them is that
they need and want an adult in their lives who cares about them
and who spends time with them doing things that they enjoy.
Volunteers that are 20 or older can be matched
individually with a little brother or sister. This involves a one
year commitment of at least three one-to-one hours a week.
There is also a program for people under 20 called the Big Bunch
which involves a six month commitment oflO hours a month.
In this program two adults are matched with two children and
the entire group gets together several times a month.
The matching process for both programs is very thorough.
The staff at BBIBS work hard to make sure that they share
interests and personality traits. After a match is made, a
caseworker is available to offer the volunteer help, support and
feedback. Right now a child.on the waiting list for a Big Sister
or Big Brother will have to wait at least one year before they are
matched. The average time on the waiting list for boys is five
years. They shouldn't have to wait anymore. They need
someone now. Ifinterested, call the downtown office 943-9584.
Just remember that there are plenty of people hanging out
on campus with a bunch of20-somethings and not enough 20somethings hanging out with kids that need us.

throats, etc. A recent edition of the television program 48 Hours
reported that there are new strains of pneumonia and viruses
that are not responding to today's antibiotics. The best line of
defense, say medical researchers, is for people to wash their
hands consistently and frequently each and every day. They also
recommend using paper towels to dry your hands and to use
the towel to open the door as germs are often located on door
handles and you can immediately reinfect you.
Many people on this campus have high susceptibility to
disease transmission. People with HIV I AIDS are at a high risk
also. When we don't wash our hands, we are unnecessarily
putting other community members at risk for something that a
simple stop at the sink could avoid.
Wash your hands with hot water and soap! Wash them!
Wash them frequently!

Computer Center
frustrates users
by Daniel Raphael
Contributor

Dear President Jervis:
I am handwriting this letter to you because th e
computer lab was unable, during my two hours there
tonight, to print my copy. This is not unusual; the lab has
been the locale of nonstop problems, major and minor, all
quarter. Last night, it took me six tries to get less than half
of a document printed-repeated "crashes" of the printer
repeatedly frustrated my attempts to produce finished copy.
Two nights ago, I was similarly unable to print what I
needed. This kind of problem is a predictable obstacle to
academic progress. I am disappointed that Evergreen's
advertised computer lab has proven to be a bad joke and,
as usual, it is students who are the butt of the joke. Oh, well.
In addition to printer failures and the multiple
computers that are always "down," even the offerings that
remain are curtailed in availability. Yesterday, there were
workshops in the CSTL from 9 am to 11 am, 11 am to 1 pm,
3 pm to 4 pm and 4 pm to 6 pm. During those times, there
are few or no computers available to studeIlts not in the
designated workshops. Oh, well.
Today, when I went to spell check a document in
Microsoft Word - the only software I use - the computer
informed me that the Portuguese dictionary could not be
found. I had not set up any such thing; I reconfigured the
machine for English, but repeatedly got the same message
as above. An aide was unable to fix this problem. Oh , well.
Earlier, when trying to use anot her computer, I
mentioned to a lab attendant that the A drive of a computer was not displaying the contents of my disk, and another
student standing next to me volunteered that another
computer was similarly malfunctioning. The aide said sorry,
but they did not keep any records of such reports. Oh, well.
I have a major report due a week from tomorrow.
Normally, I would be largely done with my first draft by now.
However, I have not previously had to contend with a
computer lab such as the one at this prestigious institution.
In fact, the community college I attended prior to coming
here 'provided reliable printers and computers plus
knowledgeable and competent attendants though the school
was smaller than TESC and a lot less expensive. Oh, well.
Tell me, President Jervis - wiII you give me a note for .
Patrick Hill, explaining why I couldn't type my paper at the
vaunted computer lab? Will you type it for me? Offer me a
refund for this travesty of a computer lab? We-Il, it's not your
ox being gored, and what's an education after all? Oh, well.
I have spoken with Les Purce about the sit uation at the
computer lab and with Jim Johnson. I understand that
Johnson is hoping a stopgap network can soon be in place.
Considering how thirigs have gone thusfar, and considering
. promises not kept to date, I can perhaps be forgiven if! am
less than sanguine upon learning of this stated intention.
I have written this letter so that you might have some
slight inkling of what it is like now, today, to be an Evergreen
student who must use the computer lab, the printers there,
and the CSTL. I do not know who, where, or when the
defective drives, bogus spell-checkers, tardy network
software, and dead-slow machines will actually be fixed. But
you're being paid, aren't you? Magazines are highly rating
Evergreen (make sure they don't use the computer lab), and
students have no real alternative. What could possibly be
the matter? Oh, well.

and to petition the go

Its been a rough road lately for the First
Amendment, and it worries me.
Within the last 30 days I've seen:
.- Evergreen banning chalk graffiti
- Unknown individuals using graffiti
to publicly indict a man of sexual assault,
with no legal basis for doing so
- The act of arson committed against
a public display erected to protest what the
owner called "False Memory Syndrome"
- A speaker at Evergreen pushing
unconstitutional"anti-porn"legislation
- An internet posting by a group called
"Arm the Spirit" bragging of their silencing
of a scheduled speaker on the topic of
denying the Holocaust at a campus in
Berkeley, Calif., as we ll as stealing and
destroying the speaker's literature and
videos.
The chalk edict is the least of this, but
no less important. Chalk washes off and is a
tradition offree speech and expression here
at TESC.
The indictments by graffiti-here's
another matter entirely. The man named has
no charges against him whatsoever, nor are
there plans to charge him as of this writing.
What is being done to this man is called
slander, and because the writers are
anonymous, a cowardly slander at that.
In our system, a citizen is innocent
until proven guilty. These days, in cases of
alleged sexual misconduct, men are guilty.
Period. And that's wrong, just as wrong as
any other crime.
The arson was yet another cowardly
act, an act designed to silence undesireable
speech. The perpetrators of this act are no
better than those who would torch women's
clinics, likewise those staunch leftists at
Berkeley who believe in free speech only for
those they agree with.
As to that speaker-well, when the
legislation he supports was enacted in
Canada, the first things seized were radical

feminist writings and gay/lesbian erotica.
Its very simple, people. The only
sensible response to offensive speech is
vigorous counterspeech.
As John Milton said in 1644, And
though all the winds ofdoctrine were to let
loose to play upon the earth, so Truth be in
the field, we do injuriously, by licensing and
prohibiting, to misdoubt her strength. Let
her and Falsehood grapple; who ever knew
Trut~put to the worst, in a free and open
enco mer?"
n our century, Justice Oliver Wendell
Holmes has said that, "the ultimate good
desired is better reached by free trade in
ideas- that the besttest oftruth is the power ·
of the thought to get itself accepted in the
competition ofthe market, and that truth is
the only ground upon which their wishes
safely can be carried out."
Justice Louis Brandeis, in his nowfamous defense of free speech said that, ..... it
is hazardous to discourage thought, hope,
and imagination; that fear breeds
repression; that repression breeds hate; that
hate menaces stble government; that the
path of safety lies in the opportunity to
discuss freely supposed grievances and
proposed remedies; and that the fitting
remedy for evil counsels is good ones...
You don't have to like what someone
else says, nor do you have to support it with
your money or tell others its great. You don't
have to let it into your home, see it or listen
to it. You just can't bar others (adults, that
is) from seeing, saying or hearing it.
The First Amendment, warts and all,
is the one facet of our government that
makes all the other good things in our
system possible.
It has to protect all our words to
protect all ofus. When we pick and choose,
weget perilously close to silencing ourselves.

"Unburyi.ng the Game"

by Sara Emily Davis
It 's a game, it's a game; can I play Indian today?

I want, I want, FEATHERS in my hair, BEADS

Lets not forget about that war paint: can not be

Oh no. [ almost lost my train of thought I need

I do not want, I do not want to know your
discomfort and how it insults.
You are not real only a game. there are no more
Indians to claim the fame.
So, that gives me the right to unbury all of the
graves.
This is only one example of the philosophy that
has raped the aboriginal cultures of Turtle Isrand. It
is this such, thriving ignorance that still today
(Nov.l,1994) plagues every aspect of the world's
melting pot.
There is little that has been done over the last
fi ve hundred, in order to change this: outright hatred.
Though. through this ravaging there still remains

not learned how to stop giving with open arms.
We have learned to survive and be proud of it.

The Cushman Projects includes two dams
on the North Fork Skokomish River. The
Federal Power Commission granted the City of
Tacoma a licence to restructure an entire
ecosystem as long as they had the rights to the
land and the water required for the project.
Although they did not, the project went
through, and despite environmental and
cultural destruction for the Skokomish Tribe
(whose land and livelihood have been severely
impacted by the dams), the 50 year license has
stretched into 70 years.

Will you 'put the dammed water b'a ck' ?
The city ignored the tribes strong
opposition to the dams that not only lacks fish
passage, thereby blocking runs ofsalmon that
the tribe depends on, but it actually diverts the
entire river out ofits basin toa power plant on
Hood Canal.
To add insult to injury, the city had the
audacity to place the main power plant and
transmission line directly on the Skokomish
Reservation which was established for the
Tribe's exclusive use as a homeland in
perpetuity. The tribe not only did not receive
compensation for this, but the Cushman
Project facilities occupy prime habitable land
on the reservation, and .the power line
dominates the shoreline. With the city's
purchase of the Nalley property, this makes it

the largest single landowner on the Tribes
reservation.
The dewatering of the North Fork
adversely impacted all species and races of
anadromo;..s fish, resident fin fish and shell fish
as well as nonresident finfish and shell fish like
shrimp and crab that are produced in the lower
North Fork, main stem Skokomish and
estuary. Also adversely impacted are terrestrial
wildlife in and around the area.
The city of Tacoma in its search of cheap
power and financial gain has shown complete
and utter disregard for the obvious destruction
that it continues to wreak. The project has paid
for itself eight times over, producing for the
city an estimated $1.2 billion in net revenue to
date.

Characteristics of a date rapist delineated
The Evergreen State College is committed
to creating a place free from violence in all
forms, including sexual assault and sexual
harassment. However, it is important to keep
in mind that we are a work in progress, a
reflection of general society and that this
violence still occurs on campus.
Some more information about sexual
assault:
Rape is defined by the Washington State
Criminal Code as engaging in sexual
intercourse with another person by forcible
compulsion.
Rape also includes engaging in sexual
intercourse when the victim is incapable of
consent by reason of being physically helpless.
mentally incapacitated by illness: or is under
the influence of drugs and/or alcohol. Rape

also occurs in situations where there is no
forcible compulsion, but the victim did not
consent and such lack of consent was clearly
expressed by the victim's words or conduct.
Stranger rape is often premeditated. The
assailant plans to rape for purposes of
degradation, humiliation and domination.
While the act is premeditated, victims are
often chosen at random because the rapist feels
they wiU be easy to overpower.
Acquaintance or date rape is the most
common and most likely form of sexual assault
to occur on college campuses.
- Stats obtained from the Sexual Violence
Program, University of Minnesota,
Minneapolis.

Question of the week:

acquaintance rapist?

The future of this project is going to be
decided in the near future. It is time that we
get involved! Letters do help. [ know how
being swamped in books and school work can
make. even a simple letter seem a dreadful
chore so I have set up a letter writing booth

destruction that is happening around you, get
involved. We supply you with information,
paper, pen, envelopes, and we even mail it for

Spider, Baby?
by Demian A. Parker
The film, Spider Baby is the story of
the Merrye Family, who suffers from
Merrye Syndrome (named such because
only descendents of Ebenezer Merrye
suffer from it). The syndrome causes its
victims to regress into a "pre-infantile state
of savagery."
Shot in 10 or 12 days (director Jack
Hill, who was on hand to answer questions
didn't remember the exact number) in the
early 1960s, the film tells the story of the
last surviving members of the Merrye clan:
Elizabeth, Virginia (who likes to "play
spider" with unsuspecti ng guests), and the
six-foot baby, Ralph. They live in a surreal,
decaying mansion protected by the
chauffeur, Bruno, played by Lon Chaney,
Jr.
Things are going reasonably fine
until a pair of distant cousins arrive and
try to snatch away the family fortune .
The basic premise behind the movie
is very similar to the first Addams' Family
movie. If you thought that the Addams'
Family was spooky, im agine a family
sitting down to dinner to serve up
"rabbit," actu'ally a neighborhood cat.
While Spider Baby is officially a
"horror-comedy," the humor is not
slapstick, like, say, Army ofDarkness. The
movie is shocking, and even grotesque at
times, but always in a fun-loving way.
While watching the movie, it is easy to tell
the cast not only wanted to make it, but
had a lot of fun doing it.
After the film, Director Hill answered
questions about making the film and
plugged it's release to home video. He was
funny, easygoing and very happy to talk
about the making of the movie. It was easy
to see this man making the "lost classic."
Demian would never hurt a spider.

by Ilam Anselm Bickford
From the central plains of the Menam
Chao Praya River watershed in the lowlands
ofexotic Thailand, I present to you this week
a fabulous recipe for an exceptionally spicy
Thai soup known as Tom Yum.
This particular version of this popular
Thai soup is called Tom Yum Goong because
of the shrimp. Soup with fish in it would be
called Tom Yum Pia, or Tom Yum Muk with
squid.
At any rate, the basic formula is the
same leaving the option of the featured
protein to your discriminating palate.
This soup is a subtle blend of hot and
sour with citrus overtones. Tom Yum Goong
is the most famous of all Thai soups. Each
region has its own variation of the recipe and
we will use the one from the central plains
where the dominate racial-sub group which
has come to be known as "Thai" originated
with the advent of the Sukhotai Culture some
nine hundred years ago.

1. Rinse the prawn shells and place them in a large pot with the water. Heat to boiling,
strain the broth and discard the shells.
2. Add the garlic. Lime leaves, galanga, fish sauce, lemon grass and shallots to the stock,
then the mushrooms and chili peppers. Cook slowly for two minutes.
3. Add th.e shrimp to the soup, and reheat to boiling. When the shrimp are cooked, place
the soup mto a bowl, and garnish with the cilantro.
Serves: 4.

MONSTER
WamerBros.
I have but two things to say about the new
R.E.M. CD, Monster,1t is killer. It is choice.
Okay, maybe 1 lied, maybe I have more
than just two J hings to say. I can't help it, I
love this CD. It rocks. If this album were a
man,I'd marry him.
What's the Frequency, Kenneth?, the song that took its title from
the phrase that Dan Rather's attackers repeated while beating him, is
one of my favorite tracks. So is Crush with Eyeliner, and for a change of
pace Strange Currencies is the CDs only semi-mellow song.
Okay, enough reading about it. Trust me, just buy it.
-Dawn Hanson would marry Michael Stipe ifhe were a man.
