"We must all take action in
interrupting the closed minded view," said
President Jane Jervis in her opening
address to the Evergreen community at the
all-campus convocation Wednesday.
Jervis introduced many short-term as
well as long-term goals she has for
improving Evergreen and making all of
our goals stay alive. Jervis emphasized
that she is looking forward to working on
all those goals with us, and to being able
to move forward to narrow the gap
between realities and dreams.
Jervis recalled the struggles of
Evergreen's past and of its growth through
open mindedness, dreams, goals, and the
strengths and weaknesses of everyone that
built the college we have today. "Many
dreams are born and developed at
Evergreen," said Jervis. "We have a lot of
sensitivity and fragijeness at our school
which can be destroyed," said Jervis about
the Student Social Contract
Russ Lidman, Provost and Vice
President for Academic Affairs spotlighted
the bumper sticker which says "Think
Globally, Act Locally."
"We need to think globally, ' think
locally, and act locally .. .at Evergreen and
in our cOlDmunities," said Lidman.
"We must create our own · sense of
home at Evergreen whether it be
- commuter or resident ... " said Art
Costantino, Vice President for Student
Affairs.
"We will receive the best
teaching available, but the responsibility of
learning is through the students and the
path is one we must carve."

new staff and
faculty joined Evergreen this year in
departments such as Finance and
Administration, Student Affairs, and
Academic Affairs.
Music talents from Evergreen such

as Teresa Jaworski, accompanied by Pete

and even to make them think of many of
their own goals and dreams here at
Evergreen. Hosts Sandy Hanson and Mike

S&A coordinator
explains everything
by Jerry Price
So...just what the hell is S&A
anyway? I hear that question a lot these
days, and in order to get the year started
with as little confusion as possible, I've
decided to make an attempt to explain
S&A to the Evergreen community at
large.

WHAT THE HELL IS THE
S&A BOARD?
S&A is short for Services and
Activities which is the area of the
college which funds student run
organizations, including in part the
Cooper Point Journal, !(AOS radio
station, and the Child Care Center.

WHO ALLOCATES THE
MOOLAH, THE DOUGH, THE
MONEY?
Money for student groups is
allocated by a board consisting of six
full time members and three alternates,
and all of them are students. This board
with assistance from Tom Mercado, the
director of Services and Activities
(Whew!), reviews budget request from
both existing, and upcoming student
groups and allocates funds to those
groups.

I would like to thank the editors of
the ePJ for giving me this opportunity as
I begin the process of getting acquainted
with the Evergreen community. Since I
arrived at the beginning of August, I have
been meeting with folks individually and
in groups, asking the question, "What do
I need to know to be an effective presit!ent
for Evergreen?"
Every Wednesday from 4:30 to 5:30,
I have staked out a table on the second
floor of the CAB to speak with anyone
who wants to come by. I hope to continue
as long as people continue to come - so
please stop by and chat I
At the Convocation I indicated my
intention to work with the community to
determine appropriate long-range goals for
the college. I also outlined my tentative
short-range goals for the coming year. I
will discuss these goals with the Trustees
at their next meeting on Oct 14, and the
short-range goals we agree upon will form
the basis of my evaluation as president a
year from now. I invite you to comment
on these goals now, before they are made
final . Your comments can be turned in at
my office or through campus mail by Oct.

2.
. My

overall

goal

is

to

help

Evergreen fulfill its fundamental mission,
"to assist students in learning how to learn
and how to continue developing their skills
in a world of increasing diversity,
interdependence, and moral complexity.
The highest priority is placed on the
quality of undergraduate instruction."
(Role and Mission Statement for TESC,
1989) Further, my other goals are to:
·Continue to learn . about the
institution and give feedback about my
observations: continue weekly public
meetings in the CAB; other individual and
group conferences both on and off
campus; give feedback in these
conversations, in public addresses, in
interviews with the CPJ, and, if
appropriate, in wrinen communications
with the entire campus.
• Improve internal communication
within TESC, so that our ideal of
collaborative governance is more fully
realized: set an example by paying
particular attention to clear and frequent
communication with all constituencies;
charge vice presidents with responsibility
for improving consultation within their
divisions; make evaluation of internal
communication a part of the evaluation
criteria for both the President and the Vice
Presidents.

THE PIT CRISIS IS OVERI photo by. Seth Long

After 368 days, facilities has reclaimed "the Pit" from eternal
damnation. The pit in front of A-donn, which opened in October
of '91 caused many a pedestrian inconveniance. The supposed two
week project and it's steam goblins haunted the main path, and the
phase two housing heating systems for nearly a year. New cement,
lovingly decored by local artists, now adorns the once agape
landscape.

,

Noon. Sept. 5, 1992. The women
Geoducks kicked off the soccer season
versus Whitworth College with the
opening game of the Ninth Annual
Evergreen Invitational Soccer Tournament.
The annual Labor Day tournament
featured twelve of the top men's and
women's soccer teams in the Northwest
playing under blue skies and in front of a
large contingent of local soccer fans.
The Evergreen women's soccer team
has been training since Aug. 19 and after
six games has yet to pull out a win or a
draw. The fIrst three results were
overwhelming but the team has managed
to close the gap and the last three losses
were each by only a one goal margin, the
most recent a 2-1 loss to PacifIc
University.
The team has made tremendous
progress. It's a brilliant group of people.
Their hard work and commitment to
support each other will carry them through
what will be a very challenging season.
The team is seventeen players
strong, with only seven returners from last
year's squad. Last year' s back-up
goalkeeper Stacey Waterman has stepped
into the starting position and has improved
with each game.
Experienced defenders Jenna Gretsch
and Sonja Rogneby anchor the defense,
along with junior transfer Cylvia Hayes.
The midfield is led by team captain and
third year player Amy Freeto along with
sophomore returners Christa Hinchcliffe
and Robin Stephani.
The midfIeld line-up is rounded out
by Washington State University transfer
Sara Gagnon. Last leading scorer Kelly
Lindgren is up front with newcomers
Debbie Dutler and Alison Spain.
The starting eleven are backed up by
reserves Juli Adams, Carla Jones, Jill
Fenrich, Josie Edwards, and the team is
anxiously awaiting the return of injured
starter Kristen Gillanders who recently
underwent abdominal surgery.

Queer center plans activities for a dy;nam.ic year
Bv Burnie Gipson
This year's co-coordinators, Burnie
Gipson (that's me), Julie Reading and Erin
Shackelford, welcome all new and
returning Queers.
The Center sponsored several
activities for this year's sexual orientation
week. Activities included a movie night,
showing My Beautiful Laundrette and
Before Stonewall, a workshop, for new
and returning students, and a visibility and
information table.
The co-coordinators envision more
activities from the Center this year.
Exciting dances, speakers, actions,
workshops on homophobia and

heterosexism (in the atmosphere and
curriculum at TESC), poster/sticker
making ventures, improved rap groups,
movie nights, and community meetings (to
build unity in the community) are parts of
their plan.
More community involvement on the
decisions and the direction of the Center
are also very important aspects the
threesome are working on. They're
looking for people to help with input and
perhaps volunteer time during office hours.
From a half an hour per week up to
helping plan an event, they want your
involvement. Stop by the Center, come to

Lost Issue
hot off
the pre~s
by Brian Almquist
"The Lost Issue" of Slightly West
has been found and released.
Material for "The Lost Issue" was
originally selected and edited in the spring
of 1991. For a variety of reasons, layout
was not completed until the end of the
school year, when it was too late to send
it to the printers.
The Slightly West staff for 1991-92,
after releasing the Winter 1992 issue,
decided to recover what was then known
as "The Lost Issue" instead of generating
all new material. All the text was
recovered and credited to its creators. Two
of the photographs remained unidentified,
and did not appear in the issue.
"The Lost Issue" features prose,
poetry and photographs from several
Evergreen students, many of them
graduated. Copies are free, and can be
picked up at the S&A Offices in CAB 320
and at various distribution points on
campus and in Olympia. Back issues from
the last three years can also be picked up
at the office.
Slightly West is accepting
submissions for the Winter 1993 issue.
Submissions guidelines can be found at
the end of "The Lost Issue."
Also, Slightly West is looking for
volunteers to work on the selection
committee, including an art editor, and on
the production staff. Interested people
should contact Brian or Sharon at x 6879.
Brian Almquist is a Co-coordinator
for Slightly West.

CWA, plan to make a guest appearance).
A rally for NCOD will happen downtown

at Silvester Park on the J un. Future plans
include a Halloween Dance and cosponsoring local events and workshops
with community and student groups, such

AMNESTY
IN'I'ERNATIONAL
by Dante Salvatierra
According to ex-Los Angeles police
chief Daryl Gates we at Amnesty
International are, "...a bunch of liberal
knuckleheads." Coming from him it's
quite the compliment.
So who are we really? Technically,
we're an impartial non-political
organization bent on furthering respect for
human rights around the world. We're
against torture and the death penalty and
you should be too. If you want more
information come to one of our meetings

like the one on Monday the September 28,
at 7 p.m. in the Library building
somewhere (the actual room is tentative at
this time).
What do we do besides be loud and
educational? We write lots of letters to
governments and organizations prodding
them to stop human rights abuses.
One way we write a lot of letters is
through this column. We reach out to
you, the commonfolk, to write letters on
behalf of those in dire straits.
In the Philippines for example, two
men are feared to have "disappeared."

Greg Wright, Recycling Coordinator, thinks alot about garbage on campus.
photo by Seth Long

by Greg Wright
Welcome back to another exciting
year at TESC. Recycling has prospered
over the summer and I am eager to
discuss, with all you who talk garbage,
what we have been doing.
For those of you who are new this
year, this will be a regular column that
will focus on recycling and solid waste
issues at Evergreen and, as space will
allow, on recycling issues from around the
world.
As you may have noticed, my
picture is in this issue of the CPJ. It may
seem a little egotistical, but it is our way
of saying, "this is the person that you can
talk to about recycling and garbage." And
I hope you do, anytime, anywhere, on
campus or stop by the recycling office in
Lib 3220. My extension is 6782.

We have the opportunity to make
recycling at Evergreen the most
innovative, the most creative and the most
successful recycling program around. It
will take commitment big or small from
everyone, but the results will be
stupendous.

RECYCLE
I'm looking forward to talking and
working with all of you.

Wrighl, Recycling Coordinator for
Evergreen. Stop by or call the recycling
office anytime! liB 3220, x6782.

r

by Dr. Richard Cranium
Well it's the first week back at
school and some of you who have just
gotten here or otherwise just forgotten
what the hell was going on might be
interested to fmd out what happened to the
Evergreen Security, "we're helpless
without guns" issue. You peaceniks will be
glad to find out that, no, they dido't give
them guns. You lawbreakers will not be
happy to find out that they are talking
about commissioning them as a police
force. i.e. they'll be able to arrest your

delinquent ass. I'm not particularly sure of
the legal ramifications behind all of this
but it might behoove those of us who
might need to draw on such legal
specifications to act quickly to fmd out
Nevertheless. it remains my opinion
that they' should arm Evergreen Security.
Now don't get me wrong. I want to be
egalitarian about all this. They should in
faet arm the whole damn campus. Simply
arming the security force would surely
lead to all kinds of nasty "abuse of power"
legal battles. If, instead, we armed the
whole campus, we would all in theory
have equal power (or at least equal
firepower). Thus your friendly security
officer would be fully justified in gunning
down yet another eco-hippie who refused
to abide by the "liquor in public areas"
rule ..."Hey. he could have drawn
first," ... "Case closed!" No mora-. ugly
student rallying court skirmishes.
I need to make clear my ideas about
the distribution of these weapons. I don't

support the idea that gUlls should be given
to those untrained to use them. A firearm
is simply no good if the person carrying it
is unprepared to instantly sever the sp~
cord of their intended target.
The affluent George Fox College in
Newburg. Oregon has ' worked out a deal
with Apple Computers to provide every
entering freshman a Macintosh computer
free with the price of admission. I'm sure
that the Baretta Corporation under the
influence of the N.R.A. would love to
support such a program here at EverRteen
by supplying each entering first-year
student one of· their fine 9mm pistols.
Then, in accordance with our coordinated
studies ethic, a target shooting component
could be incorporated into each core
program. You know kids. a kind of a
"learn to shoot like your favorite
revolutionary" thing. We could even build
the Farabundo Marti Memorial Rifle
Range out by the organic farm.
Now mariy of you who have

bothered to read this far might be
wondering why in the hell I would· want to
arm the whole campus anyway. Well, it's
simple. .Dr. Dick cares about each and
every one of you and I'm sure that you
have very important issues to bear on toe
government Civility has not proven to be
an adequate rhetorical strategy. So, it's
going to take ample firepower to get your
concerns heard. The Republicans have
been arming themselves for years. They
understand the communicative powers of
firearms and there is nothing that would
scare the Republicans more than a school
full of liberals with guns and a good aim.
Besides, civility is boring and I
know of no more adrenalin surging
experience than blowing a tight grouping
in the heart region of a paper target
representing some of my most ardent
political enemies. Try it for yourself some
time - you'll like it

~ Which countries won the most
number of medals in the Olympic
Games in Barcelona? The Unified
Team, the U.S. and Germany seems to
be the answer.
But all these are
countries with large populations and
therefore, by simple probability, they
should have won many medals. On the
other hand, other much smaller countries
also won many medals and hence their
performance was,maybe, more worthy.
SO,let's we divide the number of medals
that each country won by its population
in millions? lf we do this, the fIrst 10

Another question is: shouldn't we
expect rich countries to win more
medals? Being richer, they should be
able to feed their people better and to
have better facilities to train their
athletes. The reader can observe below a
graph of the number of medals won by
the different countries against their
Gross Domestic Product in billions of

Versate

C

dollars (V.T. is the Unified Team). The
GDP is !l measure of the size, including
populatIon, of the country. "Rich
countries" here means rich in absolute
terms (not GDP per capita).
This graph has some, not very high,
linearity: the points tend to align, very
roughly, along a line. A statistician
would say that there is some linear
correlation and could actually calculate
it. In this graph, on the other hand, we
don't clearly see the poor countries
which tend to crowd around O.
· If we divide the number of medals by
the GDP of each country we would find
a third ranking. These would be the first
10 countries with this new criterium:

It is probably not completely fair to
look at these ratios for the rich
countries. After all, regardless of how
rich a country is, it cannot ask its
athletes to jump higher or run faster
than some limits imposed by the human
body. Also the number of athletes that
can compete per event per country is
limited.
In summary, some countries such as
Mongolia, Jamaica, Cuba, Namibia and
Kenya did a heroic job in Barcelona and
Hungary, New Zealand and Suriname
also did very well considering their
populations.
Or better yet, humankind hat aterrific
performance in these games. Maybe we
can compete without having to exclude
anyone and without threats of terrorism.

Let's talk dirty. I mean real dirty.
Let's throw mud, revel in the filth and
spit out those not willing to play. Not a
bad opening line for a column on Mass
Media.
. <?ur mass culture, supported by
televlslo~,. film .and P?nt, gives ample
OpportunItIes to dISplay Ideologies, actions,
and reactions; In this column I'll share
with you, the reader, events' unfolding
under the major medium's eye. Incidents
of intrigue, mystery, and action. Plus,
perso~s destroyed by the unblinking
surveIllance. This is my mission. At times
you'll not like it. Other times, you'll taste
the bi.tter fruit . of our culture. being
regurgItated agam and again (just like
CNN). So. sit back and relax, I'm about to
begin on the great adventure.
In the preceding year, many with the
"power" to say, declared 1992 as the
.political year of the woman. If you've had
your ~ead s~uck in the sand, maybe you
haven t realized many women will be as '
disempowered after the elections as before.
Why call it the year of the woman?
Simple. It makes good copy. Women will

still be paid less. work harder for the
paycheck, and be abused by their gender
counterparts. Have things changed? Will
they progress further if women have a
larger part of the due process? I wish I
had the answer.
Also, in the last year, women have
come under fire in the media like I've
never seen before. My example revolves
around the recent controversy surrounding
"Victoria C. • of T9kwila.
This last
spring, "Victoria" flIed a civil suit against
a dozen players of the professional
football team the Cincinnati Bengals .
"Victoria" is asking for monetary damages
due to the duress in her life because of the
multiple rape inflicted by the football
tca~. "Victoria" has been slammed by all
. medIa
because of her actions. Why?
Because "Victoria" followed the route of
filing a civil suit rather .than a common
path of a criminal trial. The voices claim
"Victoria" is trying for a free ride off the
coattails of "professional" athletes. Oh
really?
'
In the last year, we have seen the
Ani.ta Hi.ll incident, the William Kennedy
SmIth trIal, the Naval Tailhook Incident,
the New York Mets accusations, and the
Mike Tyson trial. Are we seeing a new
wave of violence against women? Are
women pushing too hard, causing men to
r~ct a bit. ~ ,harshly? What do you
thmk? I thInk It s nothing new. I think
although rape, whether by one individual
or many, whether in the form of incest or
b~ a stranger occurs everyday, every
mmute throughout our country, throughout
the world. Nothing's changed.
Is this the political year of the
woman? Or is this the year the media has
p~ayed a trump card they can carry to keep
VIewers and sell newspapers? I think it's
both. Regretfully, many acts of violence
will not change because my elected
co~gressionaI official may soon be
(muaculously) a woman. I wish it was so.
I wish the media reported more on
better educational tools and relief outlets
for victims of violence. I pray someday
I'll turn on the television and see Anita
Hill nominated for the Supreme Court, and
Dan Quayle taking remedial English
classes.

TESC is hilarious
remember laugh
Nothing monumental has happened
yet this year, aside from continual parties
and an endless stream of alcohol.
However, a certain member of the CPJ
staff pleaded with me to write a letter with
which to fill space in this week's paper. I
had the perfect idea: to tell the Evergreen
community that I was holding Jerry Garcia
hostage, and that his escape from
gruesome death depended upon the
sacrifice of all Birkenstocks and the
shearing of all heads. However much the
aforementioned member of the CPJ
appreciated the brilliance of my idea. he
said it would be untruthful, and hence,
unethical.
Now, I realize that [ have probably
already offended many sensitive souls out

there, merely by the thought of dear Jerry
Garcia being harmed. So rest assured, you
teeming multitudes of Dead fans, that if [
ever really did get my hands on the good
Mr. Garcia. the worst I would do would
be to tattoo "Never trust a Hippie" on his
forehead and leave him tied up in the back
of a Volkswa~n van.
At any rate, I can only dream. For
those of you who now hold personal
vendettas against me, please remember
that this is a joke. Too many people lost
their humor last year, humor being one of
the few things that can keep a diverse
community from slitting one another's
throats. There were only a few brave
warriors who begged the Evergreen
community to remember that college can
be fun, and that dissent and disagreement
do not have to mean rage and hate. Keep
your sanity and open-mindedness, and
remember to laugh. Evergreen is hilarious.
P.S. I'll trust that Jerry Garcia is a
perfectly fine man, as I have never met
nor talked with him. It is good to
remember that about all people.
Sort of sincerely,
Jessica Merrifield Schemm

Practice vs.
preac~ing at the
OrganIc Farm
I wish to speak my mind of a
distressment I have regarding The
Evergreen State College. TESC possesses
a rare maturity with its philosophy of
"green" existence. But as our school
matures, instead of uniting for the
evolution emerging of a worldwide
movement, our branches appear to be
conflicting against each other, creating an
insecure identity. The conflicts I refer to
are many, but I will focus upon the
misguided ambitions of the Organic Farm.
After listening to tales from alumniabout past enthusiasm of beirig immersed
within and feeling the sense of harmony
with the natural surroundings, it saddens
me to hear a current work-study "worker"
respond 'Tm overworked and underpaid."
I'm also sad to hear of a field trip to
accept a propaganda speech from
Weyerhauser Forest Products where no
one questioned their justifications. ['m also
saddened by the introduction of tractor
farming, which was the subject of heated
debate at the founding Farm Board
~
meetings.
Quoting from the 1981-1983
Biennial Plan for the Organic Farm,
compliled and edited by Felicia, Kathleen
Granger, and Faith Hagenhofer, a few of
the foresights which we are ignoring are:
"We come to be utterly fluid in our use ot
machines, and clumsy at best in
connecting with or learning anything from
the elements themselves. [n a society of
consumption, our creativity is continually
stripped from us ... whether we choose to
focus on making the Farm a model for
self-reliance, or choose to move in the
direction of furthering experimentatibn and
research in the field of organic . and
ecological practices (or allow the
corruption of agribusiness) ...our overall
agriculture and management practices will
dictate it We will need to look at how to
maintain this integrity when we consider
questions of development for the Organic
Farm."
Also an important quote from the
section Statement of Purpose: "The
question of precise direction has been
raised over the course of the past
biennium: is the Farm to become a
research-oriented facility or a working
model of a small scale farm, using
practices that include as much self-reliance
as possible?"
The Farm appears from an
inquisitive student level outsider
foremostly interested in profits through the
use of free labor. Farmers are visionaries,
and independently curious. Working as a
farmhand does stimulate learning, but real
motivation comes from independence .
What I'm proposing is the forming of a
pe~anent group contract for applying
experimental alternative ecological
agriculture on individually managed plots.

by Paul Slusher
Are you one of those countless
people who are saying to yourself, "This
election year I am going to vote, I can't
afford not rD,"? You may be thinking that
the upcoming election could be a 'crucial
one, resulting in the "much needed shift
from 'republican to democrat," from Bush
to Clinton. Well, think again.
It is quite clear to most Americans
these days that Bush must go. This is an
issue that requires no debate. Yet it needs
to be pointed out that Clinton, who
represents (at best) a mild shift to the left,
serves solely as a pressure release for the
nation's increasing social tensions_ If it's
change you're waiting for, you may have
wait a lot longer than you thUlk.
Before you run off to the nearest
polling station, I would like to pose one
question...what kind of change are you
really expecting?
First let's examine Clinton, and his
so-called "alternative political stance."
While he seems to be in support of
increased funding for overall social
spending, he was in strong support of the
U.S. war on Iraq. He also seems very
excited about the prospect of putting an

MT. VIEW, CALIFORNIA
by Seth "Skippy" Long
Those of us who are the victims of
both the '70s and our parents' adherence
to medieval morals need not mourn our
lack of distinguishable culture any longer.
Yes, kids, the media moguls and their
legions of A&R men have granted our
wishes and packaged for us a traveling
Woodstock, our own Punk Rock club on
wheels. Lollapalooza '92 has hit the road
with both feet running and is after this
nation's youth-market with a vengeance.
You remember Lollapalooza, the
"alternative" rock concert started by exJane's Addiction crooner Perry Farrell and
his anny of smack-addicted misfits, That
same, tired, all-day, multi-band fonnat has
been resurrected by the Culture Industry
for a '90s rebirth. An all day "festival" of
music, art and enough P.C. causes to keep
you constipated until The Revolution
begins.
You will pay $28 for a ticket You

will buy a $30 factory tie-dyed t-shirt.
You will consume their food. You will
like it. You will feel like you belong.
These demonic promoters sit back, kick
their feet up on hardwood tableS and
throw their heads back in deep sadistic
laughter. Welcome to Mt. View,
California. the first stop on the
Lollapalooza '92 tour.
Someone asked me before we left
Oly, "Why are you going to SlIIJ Francisco
if the-show is coming to Seattle?" Easy. I
have two simple reasons; 1) It didn't come
to Seattle, it was in Bremerton and who
but a masochist with a fetish for Navy
rejects, unwed teen-aged welfare mothers,
and hellishly bad odors would want to go
there? and 2) Why not? It was reasoning
such as this that delivered us unto
California, the Golden State.
We missed the fIrSt band, Lush
(who?) and walked in on Ice-T introducing
some rap/reggae group on a little sidestage
in The Midway. After brooding around the
field for about 15 minutes we settled on a

misogynistic, homophobic, hate-filled and
generally despicable performance at the
show would be tOO kind to him so I shall
refrain from doing so in protest of his
pathetic display.)
Ok, Ministry. lce-T introduced Jello
Biafra who foamed about politics and then
introduced Ministry. What can you say
about them? Al Jourgensen is one BENT
motherfucker! The stage was decked out
in bones and the band in black. The
onslaught or' guitars crashed through our
inner ears like the hot rod Jesus built,
splitting them wide open and finally
leaving us in sweaty, bloody heaps all
over The Slope after a IS-minute encore
version of "Stigmata." Wow.
Time out! Can I begin to tell you
what a genuine pleasure it was to see Jello
there? The man, the myth, the God of
American Punk Rock speaking to Us all
about "that motherfucking cocksucker Bill
Clinton." He trashed the candidates, their
policies and even their wives (Tipper
Gore). It was beautiful. The man KNOWS.
Jello my man, you made my day.
The sun set, the stage went dark,
someone turned on the video screens and
then, suddenly from behind the curtain
came a scream so shrill it shattered
vertebrae. Lights streamed towards the
stage and the curtain was gone. The Red
Hot Chili Peppers took the stage and they
were in rare form. Decked out in black

There were about 5 of these towers
stretching the width of the amphitheater at
the mid-field mark. These obscured our
view of the stage which looked about five
miles away anyhow. Later, these provided
a launch pad for daring (and stoopid)
young men high on testosterone who felt
the need to catapult off of them into the
mosh pit.
Pearl Jam was, weU ...fun, in a Big
Hair and Dockers sort of way. Their
drippy-dippy style Of ~ PopJRock was
extremely well-received by the Bay Area
crowd but their stage show was boring.
Personally, I'd rather watch their videos
on MTV. At least then I can see what's
happening on stage and control the
volume.
What do you say about the Jesus and
Mary Chain? Nearly everything is
electronic so their live show sounds pretty
much like their albums. Hell, I'm not even
fond of the albums. Typical British
Wave/Synth-Pop trash. Why bother'!

poloozo. from page 13
and white, the stage looked like a refugee
from an old Fillmore show from the '60s.
Flea was wearing only a pair of Tighty
Whiteys and leaping around the Stage like
a gerbil shot full of speed; The music was
fast. furious and tight The neW guitarist
was much better than I expected; lightning
quick, good improvs b\Jt not much stage
personality. He reminded me of many
local guitarists, doesn't look at anything
but the guitar and won't move an inch to
save his life.
But enough of that. these guys were
fantastic! They made up for that
deplorable show at the Seattle Coliseum
last February. With an all-new show,
guitarist, tailor and encore, the Sock Jocks
were ready to Rock and Roll. Did I
mention the new encore gag? Yes, the
Sock Trick has been put to bed and a new
encore was unveiled in Mt. View that
night After a five minute break the Chilis
reappeared wearing silver hardhats
equipped with blow torches spewing fivefoot flames straight into the air! To top it
all off they played "Crosstown Traffic"
with the torches a-blazin'l Rock-n-Roll
just doesn't get any better than this kind
of circus stunt What more can be said
about them? The Chilis' show and music
makes you feel like . bungee jumping by
your scrotum. There simply is no
substitute.
So how was it? Great. Was it worth
the '$28 ticket price? Only when you
consider what you nonnally would pay for
that much music. The bottom line is that
"Alternative" music now has a
marketplace. LoUapatooza '92 proved that
you can package it. advertise it and sell
LOTS of it Does that mean that we
should shun such festivals because they're
too "commercial?" Nope. Shit. they're
almost all we have left.

Evergreen expressions begin
by L.N. Pearson
A forbidden turn of the hips, the
drop of a jaw, the clench of a fist, the
snap of a thumb against fmger, the slow
raising of an eyebrow. A perfectly precise
movement; or one intriguingly ambiguous
catches us staring, watching the infinite
expressio~ of the human body. And little
fascinates more than when we see that
expression composed within the rigorous
form of dance, or when our own bodies
move unabashedly to music.
Rarely can one see such diversity of
these fonns in one place than this year at
Evergreen. Evergreen Expressions ' 'has
lined up an incredible series of performing
arts events including Japanese avant-garde
theater, Cuban drummers and music,
Aamenco and Orissi dance.
On Oct. 2, Rama Roy will perfonn
a solo dance entitled "The · Forgotten
Voice" in the Orissi dance fonn of the
devadasi (the temple dancer). The women
dancers of devadasi, long irihibited since
the Vedic Age and censored later by
British colonial rule in India, originated
their dances in their worship of Devi, the
great goddess, through celebrating

."sexuality as a follY) of realization of
divinity." Ratna Roy is a world renowned
scholar and dancer in the Orissi tradition,
and her solo performance is a rare event.
Evergreen Expressions will also
present Los Munequitos de Matanias,
Cuba's most popular traditional drumming
and music group, on Oct. 21 in the
Experimental Theater. And Seattle's
Dappin' Butoh Troupe will perfonn "Four
Seasons in a Rock Garden" on Oct. 24.
Avant-garde butoh dance theater developed
out of the nuclear devastation wrought in
World War II in rebellion to the West and
to older Japanese traditions, emphasizing
the body as a "map of social illness,"
freezing images of humans and nature
"caught in the conflict between life and
death."
Nov. 14, Duende!
Aamenco
Company performs a passionate program

of dances within the diverse flamenco
traditions to "the haunting wail of the
gypsy song and the compelling fire of the
flamenco guitar." You won't want to miss
any of these events this quarter. .
Evergreen Expressions events cost
$6 for students and $10 for the general
pUblic. H you want to attend for free, then
we encourage you to volunteer to usher. A
mandatory training session for ushers will
take place on Wednesday, Sept 30 at 3
pm in room 117 in the Communications
Building.
Please remember unpaid tickets will
be released at fifteen minutes till curtain,
so be sure you get to the Com Building in
plenty of time before the start of .the show.

IRONICALLY, THE TIME TO START
SAVING FOR RETIREMENT IS WHEN IT LOOKS
LIKE YOU CAN LEAST AFFORD IT.

C

an't afford to save for retirement?
The truth is, you can't afford not to.
Not when you realize that your retirement
can last 20 to 30 years or more. You'll want
to live at least as comfortably then as you
do now. And that takes planning.
By starting to save now, you can take
advantage of tax-deferral and give your
money time to compound and grow.
Consider this: set aside just $100 each
month beginning at age 30 and you can
accumulate over $192,539* by the time
you reach age 65. But wait ten years and
you'll have to budget $227each month
to reach the same goal.

Even if you're not counting the years to
retirement, you can count on TlAA-CREF
to help you build the future you deservewith flexible retirement and tax-deferred
annuity plans, a diverse portfolio of investment choices, and a record of personal
service that spans 75 years.
Over a million people in education and
research put TIAA-CREF at the top of
their list for retirement planning. Why not
join them?
Call today and learn how simple it is
to build a secure tomorrow when you
have time and TlAA-CREF working on
your side.
