It has been only one year since
the United States government launched its
attack on Iraq. While we worry our way
through a worsening recession, many of us
have let the war slip to the back of our
minds. But in Iraq thousands of civilians
are still dying as a result of the war. They
haven't forgotten.

NATION--The Evergreen State College
was ranked as the nation's sixth best
campus for aesthetic design in a new book
entitled "The Campus as a Work of Art."
Campus design is a genuine art
form according to the book's author
Thomas A. Gaines, who is trained in
architecture and visited hundreds of
campuses over a 30 year period to
determine which colleges and universities
come closest to his artistic ideal.
, "Well-scaled college grounds with
harmonious buildings and professional
landscaping belong among the most
pleasing of man-made environments,"
writes Gaines.
In his book, Gaines says,
"E vergreen' s exquisitel y designed concrete
volumes and voids set in the arboreal
drama of the Puget Sound basin are proof
that college administrations can aspire to
perfection even with all the complex
demands of campus making."
Citing the soft red brick plaza, the
off-center clock tower and the grassy berm
that mischievously obstructs part of the
sight-line from the colleges's main
entrance, Gaines says you know you are
some place special as soon as you arrive
at the bus loop on Evergreen's campus.

list of artistically designed campuses. "Its

Evergreen represents smaller campuses
from its sixth place ranking.
Evergreen is the only Northwest
college ranked in the top 13. The
University of Washington is cited as one
of the top 50 colleges worthy of
recognition.

CAB's third floor fin'a lly unveils ne\V offices
, 'l
I
I
by Paul H. Henry
For the flTSt time in 19 months,
the third floor of the Campus Activities
Building is open to the public, and
Evergreen's student groups are very
enthusiastic about their new home.
The most visible addition to the
CAB from the outside is the aluminumclad annex which is home to the new
Student Activities area. Previously, the
student activities offices had , been
scattered about the campus, with most
being concentrated on the third floor of
the Library building.
The annex also holds the Cooper
Point Journal's new, larger office. KAOS
has moved into its greatly expanded
quarters on the third floor across from the
Student Activities area.
"I love it", says George
Hermosillo, co-coordinator of MEChA.
"It's very conducive to a positive working
environment. "
With the new offices has come a
tradeoff, however. In the Library building,
the student groups had small, separate
offices which locked individually. In the
CAB, the groups are assigned to open
cubicles without doors.
Fortunately, most coordinators
feel that the benefits of having a common
area outweigh the relative lack of privacy.
"That's not really a problem,"
said . Hermosillo. "The biggest concern I
have would be if we want to speak loudly,
8Jld we can always take it somewhere
else."
.
Student Activities' administrators
agree that the biggest plus for the new
setup is the fact that all the swdent groups
are centered in one easy-to-fmd area.
"We're , happy to be 'back on
campus' again," said Javier O'Brien, arts
& production coordinator for Student
Activities and KAOS. "Students will know
where to find us now. This is like a whole
new begiiming for us."
"We're seeing the fruits of it
already," said Tom Mercado, Director of
Student Activities. "It's great to have
students talking, planning at tables in the #
middle. I don't know that we would have
had that last year."
The ' main concern of the
coordinators and others is access. The
Student Activities , area is locked in the
evenings and on weekends for security
"It's great to have
students talking,

know that we would
have had that last

reasons, whieh creates problems for
students who feel they need access to the
area at these times.
The Student Activities
administration is currently working with
Security to resolve this situation.
"We're going to try to have a
staff member stay here 'til 7 pm at least
three nights a week, and we're going to
~ve voIunteen from the, student groups
looking after the place later in the
evening," said Mercado.
Construction began on the third
floor of the CAB in June of 1990, when
Student Activities and KAOS moved out
Olson/Sundberg Architects Inc. of Seattle '
was in charge of the project, which was
originally slated for completion in June of
1991 but was pushed back to Decembc7
1991 because of unanticipated delays in
the inspection process.
On Friday at 3 pm, there will be
an organizational meeting in the Student
Activities office to discuss and plan the
CAB Open House and Grand Re-opening
Party. Staff/Faculty and students are
encouraged to attend.

Toxic Tuesday raises awareness of chemical waste
by Erik Phenix
Last Tuesday (Toxic Tuesday)
you may have been squirted with water by
a representative of the Washington Public
Interest Research Group (WashPIRG)!
Well, it may have been water, or it may
have been toxic chemicals. You will
probably never know the truth.
"The problem is that 95% of all
toxic chemicals released into our
environment are not reported under current
environmental standards," says Zoe Shark,
student coordinator for WashPIRG's
Toxies Campaign.
"There are currently, JWo tons, of
tope., -c~ical$ ,produced for - every
woman, man and child in the country,"
continued Shark, "It's an insidious
problem that few of us ever hear about.
For that reason, the focus has too long
"
, been on waste reduction when really what
we need to do is to reduce the use and
production of toxic chemicals."
Shark says that these chemicals
,do not only end up in our water and waste
dumps. Many end up in our food and
household products and the cumulative
effect is extremely hazardous to our
health.
That is why WashPIRG has
joined a national network of PIRGs to
fight the over-production and over-use of
toxics here in Washington and across the
country.
Along with launching massive
educational campaigns exposing
environmental and human health risks
associated with such a reckless overuse of
toxics, WashPIRG is also working with
industries to help them substiMe safer

alternatives, sometimes through lawsuits.
Other strategies involve
WashPIRG's efforts to pass effective
legislation such as the Federal Clean Air
Act, and strengthening the current Clean
Water Act, and the Resource Conservation
and Recovery Act.
"It's ridiculous that our country
spends millions fighting drug wars in other
countries when we are killing ourselves at
home , with daily toxic doses; and the
government supports our habit: says
Andrew Gamson, WashPIRG campus
organizer. "That's why it's our
responsibility to educate ourselves and
others about this problem. And we can't
stop there; knowing is not enough. We
have to fight it"
Toxic Tuesday was one effort of
WashPIRG students in this year's
campaign against toxics. If you want to

Decide WashPIRG's fate
by Stephanie Zero
Ballot boxes are out Jan. 16 and
1.1 (today and tomorrow) in the Library
Lobby, the CAB, and the Community
Center, to vote whether students want the
Washington Public Interest Research
Group (WashPIRG) to remain on campus.
~very
two years students
democratically vote to assess a waivable
fee to our wition, pooling funds together
to work in issues of environmental
protection, consumer protection, and
hunger and homelessness relief.
Because WashPIRG is not part of
Student Activities, but an independent
non-profit student group, it is funded
solely by a waivable fee of $3.50 on your
tuition statement. This means that when
the majority of students democratically
vote to assess this fee, an individual can
still choose not to pay it if he or she
should desire.
WashPIRG is currently working
on three campaigns: reduction of overall
use and production of toxic chemicals in
Washington, environmental education for
Olympia's elementary schools; and
addressing hunger and homelessness in
Olympia through direct services and public
education.
If WashPIRG was not on campus
there would be no student groups working
on these issues.

Wellness Center improved
by Ruth Frobe
The Wellness Center, a fitness
instructional area located in the Campus
Recreation Center, has added some new
equipment for 1992, which is now
available for use.
The low back machine, made by
Cybex, has been added to the Polaris
weight circuit already in the center. The
circuit now includes seven machines and
a set of free weight dumbbells which can
be used for upper body, lower body and
abdominal workouts.
The strength training equipment,
as well as the aerobic equipment in the
center (which includes stairmasters, a
treadmill, a ski machine, rowing
ergometers, and various types of stationary
bikes) is available to students, staff,
faculty, and community members who
chose to join the Wellness Center.
To join the Center, one must
complete a fitriess evaluation with the
Wellness staff and pay a quarterly fee. The
staff will then design a fitness program for
the individual, orient him or her to the
equipment and periodically update his or
her program based on improvements and
,interests.
The new nutritional software now
available in the Wellness Center allows the
user to analyze his or her nutritional intake
and habits with a quick user friendly
program. The computer provides
information on percentages of
carbohydrates, fats and proteins in the diet
as well as contents of may essential
nutrients. This service is available to both
members and non-members of the
Wellness Cen~r for a minimal fee (nonmembers, $4, members $2), and may be
accessed by appointment

Security recruiting students for paid night patrols
by Darwin L. Eddy
Student Security Patrols are
gearing up to begin their program and
applications are now available and can be .
picked up at the Security office, located in
Seminar 2150, located across from Health
Services.
In the past the program was
called Crime Watch, and was a volunteer
program. This past year the Washington
State Legislature has allocated funds
(about $17,(00) for a program which will
now allow us to have a more
professionally run operation.
We are encouraging women and
minorities to apply for positions. The rate
of pay will be five dollars an hour.
Student Patrol employees will work nights,
with some shifts operating until 2 am.
Student Patrol employees will be equipped
and uniformed so as to be recognizable to
the Evergreen community, and the people
they'll serve.
Basic duties of Student Patrol
employees will include providing escorts
for members of the community to different
locations around campus, including the
campus parking lots. We want to insure
the safety of people on campus during
their travels in the hours of darkness.
Student Patrol employees will
also serve as eyes and ears in assisting the
Campus Security Department in situations
of criminal or suspicious activity they may
encounter during their foot patrols of the
campus.
Campus Security employees will
not become directly involved when such
activity are detected or observed, but will
instead inform Campus Security--via
radio--which in turn will enable a faster
response by Campus Security officers,
Thurston County Sheriffs, and/or
emergency units, Fire Dept., and Medical
Aid when needed.

Campus issues call for student
by J.E.B. Stuart Thornton
TESC had no student
representation at a recent hearing of the
state House Higher Education Committee,
which concerned how the governor's
purposed budget will affect higher
education.
Evergreen was not represented
because it has no student elected
government, the traditional source of
people who represent the student
perspective.
The proposed budget includes
crucial matters such as the 35% tuition
increase (the largest increase in all of the
state colleges) and a reduction in tuition
waivers.
The Committee on Higher
Education, Chaired by Representative Ken
Jacobsen, invited Brendon Williams of the
WlIShington Student Lobby (WSL), to
address student views. Instead of speaking
for all state colleges, Williams presented a
panel of elected members from Student
Government (SG) of various state colleges.
All other state four year schools were
represented by at least one spokesperson,
except for Eastern whose representative
could not make it. The University of
Washington had both graduate and
undergraduate representatives.
Williams, when asked why TESC
was not represented he replied, "Evergreen
has no recognized Student Government
Association." He went on to say, "[t is
really unfortunate [because] TESC has the
best access to the legislature, they could
be a real power house. [yet] without
representation the stereotypes prevail."
When asked about an interim
representatives Williams said that he was
hesitant of that. since had felt "burned" by
non-elected reps in the past, while working
with community colleges. Williams said
that the SG (and its representative) must
be recognized by the board of trustees, as
well as elected by the students bt order to
tcstify with the WSL.
Williams, a former Greener,
understands the SG situation at Evergreen
from his own experience in the past at
TESC. Williams said, "I feel bad. We
[WSL] could do a lot for Evergreen."
Tom Mercado, Director of
Student :o\ctives Administration at
Evergreen, was asked about this lack of
student representation, ~o. ~hich he re~lied,
"The Student and ACUVllles . Board IS the
closest we come to SG." As far as a

It was also essential that Iraq be
destroyed enough to prevent it from
becoming a major Middle East power for
at least a couple decades while remaining
strong enough .to prevent the spread of
Shi'ite Islam from Iran. To this ends the
highly touted Republican Guards were
spared with the hope that a field
commander would use them to overthrow
Hussein and keep Iraq from being too
weak. Imagine the chagrin of Bush when
a popular Iraqi Shi'ite uprising began to
gain power and threaten to overthrow the
ruling Baath party. This created the specter
of a Shi'ite Islam Iraq that woulpundoubtedly fall under the influence of
Iran and form a powerful traditional
Shi'ite Islam coalition. An Iraqi-Iranian
Shi'ite coalition would have changed the
Middle Eastern power dynamic
considerably and would have torpedoed
Bush's "New World Order" plans.

STUDENT GROUPS WEEKLY
by. Paul Henry
Evergreen's student groups have
historically held , a low profile in the
campus community for several reasons,
not the least of which is ' their lack of
visibility. A lot of opportunities nave been
missed and a lot of worthwhile activities
have suffered from a lack of participation
simply because many students did not
know the groups existed.
We're hoping that will change.
The student groups are settling into their
brand new offices on the third floor of the
CAB and are planning a quarter of
activities and meetings that they hope will
interest you. This column will be
dedicated to giving our student groups a
forum to inform the campus community
about their weekly activities. If you read
something you like and would like more
information, give them a call! They'd love
to hear from you.

Red Tail Amber Ale is brewed by
the Mendocino Brewing Co., Hopland,
California. It's an amber ale made from a
blend of pale and caramel malted barely
and whole hops. This ale has a weak
aroma that prefaces a fairly different beer
than the previous two. Red Tail Ale is
clean and refreshing. It's a beer with a
well defined taste. It is not as robust as the
other two beers, however it is an excellent
traditional amber ale. Wetve agreed that it
is an excellent alternative for
discriminating, beer-drinking Americans.
Red Tail won the bottle award
this week with a brown long neck bottle
and a label that has a detailed picture of a
red tailed hawk carrying the necessary
ingredients for a fine potion in it's talons.
And, we picked Pyramid Pale Ale as the
best tasting.
This week's swill tasting beer
was good old Olympia which is brewed
and bottled by Pabst Brewing Co. in
Tumwater, Washington.
For this beer we conducted a
survey. A bottle of Olympia's finest was
defined by Dave Eckenrode as, "flat. bad,
and fizzy."
Craig Erickson noted, "It tastes
like Olympia."
We agree.
Olympia is cheap and bad and
you should buy it because it's rock n' roll.
You should also buy it because it only has
11 oz per bottle and if everybody else is
going to be a sucker then you should be a
sucker too. Don't worry, they changed the
labels back to the traditional label so that
you can once again drink HOly" with

Write letters to relieve suffering in EI Salvador
THE THIRD FLOOR
by Sean Bender, Land Cole and
Michelle Rose Obyrne
At the beginning of this illustrious
year, a cry for help was born from the
shadows of Olympia, the all American
city. Three intrepid travellers found
themselves in an all too familiar web. The
patrons of this quaint town of cafes and
Saturday night cruisers were at best
striving to be bland. In a desperate and
heroic attempt to injeet culture into this
apathetic city, they armed themselves with
twelve ounces of courage and the Beer
Hunter was born.
Welcome to the first week of the
Beer Hunter. Each week we will review
three
reputable beers and one
economical/swill beer. The theme for. this
week is microbreweries of the west coast.
We selected Full Sail Amber Ale, Pyramid
Pale Ale and Red Tail Amber Ale.
Full Sail Amber Ale is brewed
and bottled by the Hood River Brewing
Co., Hood River, Oregon. It has a winelike bouquet that expresses itself with a
full aroma. It's color is refreshing and has
a dazzling effervescence about it As this
amber ale crosses your taste buds, you
experience a smooth frothy, nutty ale that
is a little sour, but pleasant and full of
flavor. As the bottle retires from your lips,
you ponder the label which has a simple
portrayal of a sailboat on the Columbia
River with Mount Hood in the
background. An aftertaste brings you back
to reality and you realize that you are
relaxed and glad of your purchase.
The second beer we tasted was
Pyramid Pale Ale which is brewed and
bottled by the Hartford Brewing Co.,
Kalama, Washington. This is a bountiful
potion that harvests a fruity bouquet. This
pale ale has a potently sweet taste to it
which is characteristic of west coast
microbreweries. The taste is impressive in
it's full flavor. The label reveals itself as
golden pyramids set amongst ever~n
trees. The label is surreal and not

Do not worry however if this
symbolism does not mean much to you.
lt took people many centuries to
accept these ideas. Back in the 5th
century B .C . there was a Greek
philosopher by the name of Zeno. Zeno
used to puzzle his contemporaries by
tclling them that motion is impossible.
Zeno's (apparent) paradoxes were
presented in a variety of ways.
In one of these stories Zeno argued
that an arrow could never go from point
A to point B. Assume that motion is
possible - not much of a demand.
Before the arrow gets to point B, it must
first go through t!le point halfway
between these two points, say point C.
To go from C to B again the arrow must
first go through point D halfway
between C and B, and so on. Since we
can continue arguing this way, this is an
endless process and the arrow will never
.
get to B.
In another of Zeno stories, Achilles
and the tortoise decided one day to have a
race. Since Achilles was much faster
than the tortoise, Achilles gave the
tortoise a handicap. Even if Achilles
was very fast and the tortoise very slow,
by the time that Achilles got to th e
tortoise's starting point, she had
managed to move a distance, and so the
tortoise was still ahead of Achilles by a
(small) distance. So Achilles again had
~o go this distance, and the tortoise was
l ble to move (a smaller) distance but
,till was able to stay ahead of Achilles .
This happened again and again, and
Achilles was never able to catch up with
the tortoise!
We know things do get from one
point to another and Achilles eventually
will calCh up with the tortoise. So what
is wrong with these arguments? We
will look at them in my next column .

No student government means no power
by J.E.B. Stuart Tbornton
I am afraid that we will really
feel the , pain from lack .of student
representation in the legislature if we do
not find a legitimate way to represent
oursel ves there.
This year there is nearly a billion
dollar budget "problem" that Washington
faces for the biennium. Due to
constitutional protection of about half the
state budget the other half has to take a
much larger cut. Such programs as higher
education, which are funded out of the
"discretionary budget", are heavily
burdened.
The Evergreen State Co)]ege has
already taken large cuts: 2.5% ($1.4
million in this biennium). The institution
as a whole is well represented by Jennifer
Jaech, the legislative liaison. The students
of the other hand have been left out in the
cold, (and that may be literally). As a
result Evergreen students (with residency
status) face a $618 a year tuition increase
of which 29.7% is surcharge proposed by
the governor. This is in addition to the
5.3% already planned for by the
legislature.
Although the administration does
lobby on behalf of the students, it has its
hands full dealing with the cuts and
lobbying for the supplemental budget
request to cover our $500,000 sewer bill.
Our ' perspective is unheard, and as
students we will need to lobby for our
own positions.
Student Governance (SG) is in
the works for Evergreen. A task force on
SG has been formed, and incorporation
has been filed for (for details see Tom
Mercado, Director of Student Activities
Administration). Yet, in the meantime we
are unrepresented.
I propose the creation of a student
legislative liaison: a person who works
with administration on the lobbying issues,
but who is accountable to the students.
This position could be created prior to the
generation of student government, so that
we cotild be represented in the critical
times.
In order to operate in the
legislative system we need to respect their
rules to be successful. In the past, radical
student lobbying has backfired. Remember
the "security with guns" situation, when
we almost ended with armed guards on
our campus. If we can gently broaden the
legislate perspective to include our views,
we will be more successful than we would
be bludgeoning them with our anger.
I suggest that Greeners attend
House and Senate hearings where we can
share our perspective. The first oPen
hearing will be Monday Jan. 20, in the
Senate. Other hearings will be _hel~ and
although we will not have a forum in
which to speak I suggest that we attend
clad in TESC shirts and sweats (since
signs and banners are not well received).
We may not be heard, but we will be seen
and not forgotten.
This is a crucial time for
Evergreen. We are dealing with scared
people; this is an election year. Legislators
are concerned with not losing face and
still making cuts. To frighten them with
radical and emotional events would be like
comering an animal; resulting in attack.
Let's try to find another way to help the
cornered beast and save ourselves. A
preparatory meeting for the Senate hearing
will be held Jan. 20 at 1 pm, in Library
2205.

Protest our "quacking" governor's tuition hike
by Bryan Connors
I was scanning across the op-ed
section of The Seaule Times three or four
weeks back (Dec. 17, to be exact),and,
low and behold, there was a piece about
state college and university tuition
increases.
Since I am a college student, and
such things do affect me--as well as most
of my friends--I put my feet up and dove
in.
The piece (written by Times
associate editor Richard W. Larson) started
off on how, after couple of years of a
robust state economy, a certain lame duck
governor from the fme state of
Washington has suggested that tuition
increases are going to be necessary since
the state is some where around 900
million dollars in the hole.
'Then the numbers came up, and
the proposed tuition boosts went as
followed: 10% for WSU, 11% for
community colleges, 19% for UW, 30%
for TESC ....
I did a mental double take,
blinked, and read it again. 30% for TESC?
I nearly had a stroke!
I mean, didn't the state just jerk
2.5 percent from Evergreen's--as wen as
all other state schools--budgets? That's
like cutting off a person's index finger and
then having them lift 30% more ' weight
with the same finger-less hand.
So I got back on campus and
found out I was wrong about the number
of 30%. It had been pumped up to 35%
because of a five percent "surcharge."
(That's not only for Evergreen, but for all
schools previously listed).
How, might you ask, did our
quacking governor come by all these nifty
numbers between time spent preening his
tail feathers? Well, according to Jennifer
Jacch , Evergreens Legislative Liaison, in
the current issue of Works In Progress, the
state had compiled a list of "peer
institutions" from around the country. This
was to find comparative numbers in which
to base a rate of public funding for the
various state schools around the state. The
governor then took that same list and
based the recommended tuition hikes
according to tuition base's of said "peer
institutions. "
.
Well, and I'm not being arrogant
in saying this (all right, maybe a little),
Evergreen has no peers-oat least not in the
way of state schools around the country.
And as for the this concept of "peer
institutions," so what if tuition is higher in
other states? I mean just because they're "
robbing their college students blind doesn't
mean my state has to follow suit
And how much in dollars and
cents does this come to? With the help of
some people who have a better
understanding of math than I, it goes like
this: basic tuition for an in-state resident
this year is $537 (not including various
other fees) per quarter. 35% of 537 is 187.
(According to Jaech, that sum is
only for the in-state under-graduates. The
out-of-state under-graduates and in- and
out-of-state graduate students will, since
they are already paying a small fortune,
will pay less).
$187, think about that for a
moment. Do you have that much extra
money floating around every quarter? Well
I sure in the heck don't
I did work it out, though, and if
I skip buying books, and not eat for a
month out of the quarter, I should be able
to slip by.
Of course it has been suggested
that some students get some kind of
financial aid supplement based on need as
a result of the tuition hike. Gee, that
sounds great--Iets give the migraine-laden
institution of financial aid more headaches.
percent? Five percent? One person who is
denied a higher education because of
raised tuition is one too damned many in
my view! I mean, how dare that mealymouthed S.O:B. (who I voted for and

Abuse surviyor : s~pport .
by Shary Smitb
In the past several years the pain
of childhood sexual abuse has been
acknowledged and dealt with by an everincreasing number of people who have
survived this tragedy. They are part of a
wide-spread movement in our society to
heal the far-reaching damage done to
untold numbers of children who then
struggle as adults to live healthy lives.
One out of three girls and one out
of seven boys are sexually abused by the
time they reach the age of 18. If you were
abused as a child, you are probably
experiencing long-term effects that
interfere with your ability to relate to other
people, trust yourself and ol;hers, or
a
function on day-to-daY basis. ' .
You are not alone. Healing is
possible through a commitment to working
hard for lasting change. The Counseling
Center here on campus will once again
offer a group for women survivors of
childhood sexual abuse beginning
Wednesday, Jan. 22. The group will meet
each Wednesday from 3:30 pm to 5 pm
through March 20. Those interested should
call the Counseling Center to schedule an
appointment with Shary Smith or Barbara
Gibson at x6800. The group will be closed
after the second meeting.
Shary Smith is a mental health
counselor and substance abuse prevention
coordinator for the Counseling Center.
Intelligent force needed to curb nuclear arms
by Daniel George
Here we are in 1992, eight years
and the millennia is over. The American
military machine, for whatever reason, has
become the most technologically advanced
fighting machine on the face of Earth, at
least that's what I read in the Times.
Our military may very well be the
most powerful on Earth as well, although
I wonder about the Chinese. (We could
keep mowing them down but they'd just
keep coming.) Round about this time a
year ago my President and yours, along
with 51 Senators, decided that it would be
a good idea to use our incredible force
against a nation in the Middle East which
had somehow, undeservedly they implied,
accumulated the fourth largest army in the
world, never mind that apparently not a
damned one of them wanted to fight.
At the time, being a twenty year
old American male I was concerned,
regardless of the continued assurances that
we'd "kick their ass" quickly, about my
own stake in the war. At first I had simply
reacted that people made bloody charred
messes of each other during war and
therefore war was bad. None of us want to
die, right? As time passed I realized that it
was of little consequence whether I was
asked to join in the effort of pummeling
Iraq; what I really n~ed to decide was
whether or not I believed in the American
side, my country's side, of the struggle.
I did not believe in oil. I did not
believe in the "liberation" of Kuwait. I did
not believe . in "opposing aggression"
against "madman" Hussein. I did not
believe in these things because they are
hypocrisy. Shall we fight the tyrant
Saddam while .syria sleeps in our bed?
(Shall we ignore the Kurds as helicopter
death descends upon them?) Shall we
sacrifice American men and women, bred
on the ideals of freedom and democracy
so that the Kuwaiti kingdom may prevail?
The idt1ls which my President
called on the ..... of America to trumpet
were wrought with the disease of
hypocrisy and I could not embrace them.
But the President told me one thing which
I could not ignore; Iraq is developing a
nuclear weapon. Although the war became
a tactical and ambiguously motivated
jumble, I discovered that there was
something in the war's botched
methodological mire that I believed in.
A year after the war's inception
the goals and results of last year's fighting
are still unclear; it seems as if we have
only accomplished the restoration of
Kuwait's dynasty. But if our President has
done nothing else, he has kept nuclear
proliferation an issue. (Beyond Iraq, he
has pressed the issue in the Koreas as
well.) I suspect that it will remain an issue
as long as Bush remains our leader. I hope
that it will remain an issue long after.
If I learned anything from the
Gulf War, I learned that the American

I do not wish to belabor the
merits of Chris Bader's series on the Paul
Ingram .case of se;tual assault for which
Mr. Ingram is currently serving 20years
in prison. However, I do 'wish to address
the readers of the Cooper Point Journal
with these few simple points of interest.
In 1983 while running for the
office of state representative opposing
Representative Jeimifer Belcher, Mr.
Ingram let 'it be known that he was in
favor of closing The Evergreen State
College and using the existing campus for
a regional police training academy.
Knowing I was a 1974 graduate
of The Evergreen State College, Mr.
Ingram took great pleasure in criticizing
anything Evergreen stood for, including
my "Greener" degree, my adjunct faculty
position at Evergreen, and my field
supervision of TESC interns from several
different programs which he referred to as
"underwater basket weaving."
Although Chris Bader advised in
his article that he had interviewed Paul
Ingram from his "prison in New England,"
Mr. Bader has not contacted, nor to my
knowledge attempted to contact, any .
member of the Thurston County Sheriffs
Office regarding the Paul Ingram
investigation .
I hope Mr. Ingr8m waS ' afford~
the opportunity to read 'Chris Bader's
series on his case as I am sure he would
find them in keeping with the "Greener"
tradition.
As to the extent of Mr. Bader's
research, I find myself without a voice.

Every two years WashPIRG
reaffums campus support for the
continuation of the chapter program
through a petition drive and a student
referendum.
As a member of the Evergreen
community, I endorse the current
reaiTarmation drive and support the
continuation of tbe WasbPIRG chapter
funded by a waivable fee.
' It is essential for the Evergreen
students to have the opportunity to learn
citizenship skills while actively pursuing
public interest issues such as
environmental protection, hunger and
homeless relief, and consumer protection.
Submission deadline Is Monday
noon. We will try to publish material submitted
the following Thursday. However. space and

Message from
Chief Russell
As many of you know, Security
staff have been restricted from responding
directly to many law enforcement oriented
calls. These include any "in-progress"
incidents that may result in an arrest if the
suspect or perpetrator is still present.
In these cases, we ask that the
crime or illegal activity still be reported
directly to Campus Security (x6140). We
will summon Sheriff deputies and provide
necessary direction for them to reach the
scene and in most cases, accompany the
deputy to the location of the incident
Security personnel will continue
to directly provide services such as
unlocks, vehicle assists, escorts,
emergency locates and similar supportive
activity. We may also handle reports of
crime& that are not in-progress, doing
investigative follow-up in matters relating
to disturbances, thefts, harassment, aSsault
Have you ever heard of an
organization or cause that simply grabbed
you and said, "This is for me, this is
something I believe in, this is something
that CAN make a difference?"
Well there is a group forming
now that could have this kind of impact
for you. Earthsave Olympia will have their
flrst meeting Jan. 16, 7:30 pm to 9 pm at
Red Apple Natural Foods.
Earthsave is headquartered in
Santa Cruz, California, and was founded
by now president John Robbins (of Baskin
and Robbins fame). John Robbins forgave
the family fortune and started research on
the dairy and meat industries and wrote
his Pulitzer Prize nominated book Diet
For a New America. This book has had a
dramatic impact on many, many people.
My wife and I have gone completely
vegetarian (vegan) and are now professing
its benefits. Earthsave has 30 local action
groups and a total paid membership of
4,000.
Earthsave teacbes that our current
meat and dairy based diets and our largescale agriculture methods have a
detrimental impact on our environment,
our health, animals and all other life. We
will awaken people to the issues of animal
cruelty, the issues of routine feeding of
antibiotics, steroids and hormones, the
issues that 60,000,000 humans will starve
this year yet we fed 90% of the oats, 90%
of the soy beans, and 80% of the com
grown in this country to livestock! I
The statistics go on and on and
on, please, we strongly ur~e you to read
Diet For a New America, (or borrow our
one hour video for free). It will touch your
compassionate side for animals, it will
open your eyes to the facts that we've all
been programmed to believe in, the four
food groups by the meat and dairy
industries. It will further your conviction
to eat locally produced organic foods. It
will prove to you that not only are many
diseases in this country caused by excess
animal consumption, but that many can be
cured by eliminating such practiees It will
anger you, it will sadden you, but it will
also empower you to realize that you can
make a difference.
Activities we will perform
include: implementing healthy low fat
school lunch programs, speakers and
videos, vegetarian potlucks and cooking
classes, educating restaurants, enlightening

Kristin Engel's ·. tales ·of
Greeners go for sud!) at Pabst Brewing
by Andrew Hamlin
Four of us at the Cooper Point
Journal office realized , that after four
years, five years, half a year, or however
long we'd spent in this place, we'd never
visited the Pabst Brewing . Company,
known informally as the Olympia Brewery
after the product it makes which is most
popular around this area. So CPJ
Business Manager Doug Smith, Ad Layout
Person Paul Henry, Police Blotter
Compiler Bryan Connors, Photographer
David Mattingly, and this reporter piled
into Mr. Henry's black Volkswagen and
motored to the Brewery at 100 Custer
Way in Tumwater, I've often wondered if
Tumwater was named "Tum-water" to
describe its Artesian spring water plunging
into satisfied stomachs. Mr. Henry's
Volkswagen, incidentally, is closely
resembles the one that the rock band Slam
Suzanne rides around iii, but without the
green wheel wells and the words "Slam
Suzanne" painted in large green leiters on
the passenger door.
Olympia Dark Beer is sold in
cans in only one place on the face of the
earth, the Gift Shop at the Pabst Brewing
Company in Tumwater. It is sold in room
temperature cans for three dollars and fifty
cents a six-pack. Olympia Dark is poured
into kegs and sold to "pizza parlors,
taverns and bars" in the thirty states where
Olympia does business, but it is not sold
in cans anywhere except the gift shop.
Other items for sale in the gift
shop include Pabst Blue Ribbon pool cues,
Beer Cookies (they don't actually contain
beer) which come in a thing that looks
sort of like a big box of McDonaldland
Cookies, Olympia beer glasses, Olympia
beer mugs ranging from big ones that look
like they could hold almost all of a can of
beer, to small ones that look like the little
glasses you keep by the sink in case you
need to get a drink of water .
The Pabst Brewing Company,
which I've always called the Olympia
Brewery makes twenty-eight different
kinds of beer. They have all twenty-eight
different brands in a display cabinet, with
a row of beer ingredients on top of that
The beer ingredients are contained in big
Contac capsule-shaped thirigs.
The place where they twirl the hops
around is fairly warm. The inside of one

copper kettle looked like a landscape out
of Dune, foam layers that ate one another.
The storage tank area is very cold,
and smells .like hops. The outside of the
brewery and the storage tanks both smell
like hops. Hops smell like hot soup to me.
Like a smell that will catch in your nose
and make you sneeze it out if you smell
too much of it.
In the car on the way back we
talked about the cathouses of old Seattle,
and the blue laws there. Bryan did a paper
once on the blue laws of Seattle and
remembers a lot of them. Doug has a tshirt that says "Women's Seamstress
Union" on one side and "A stitch in
time ... will cost'" you two bucks," on the
front and back. He likes this t-shirt
because nobody gets the joke. In days of
old, Seattle ran the "biggest cat house
West of the Mississippi," and the 250
women who worked in it belonged to the
Women's Seamstress Union.
A "blue law" of Seattle, still on the
books, stipulates that if anyone removes
all of their clothing in a bar there, the bar
must shut down immediately and remain
shut down for 24 hours. I think the Blue
Moon on 45th Street in Seattle would be
a good place to test this law. Tom Robbins
called Picasso collect from the Blue
Moon's pay phone once. Picasso answered
the phone but refused the charges.

The guest receiving area has three
beer taps, one for Hamm's Light, Oly
Regular, and one for DIy dark. The tap
attendant's name was Fred. He had a
white lab jacket with an oval patch on it
saying "Fred." Fred looked a lot like
Evergreen faculty Bill Winden, and a little
like Hannibal Lecter. He was nice though.
He waved goodbye to us as he walked
past us on the way to his car. We were
lined up at the mouth of the tunnel to the
visitor's area so David could take our
picture. Fred had to walk past us to get to
his car. The $un had gone down.
After we came back from the
brewery, we stopped at the McDonald's on
.Harrison for dinner. They had a big
McDonald's mirror in the back where we
ate. They did not have any Olympia Beer
mirrors in the Gift Shop, so far as I could
tell. I thought that was odd.
Olympia Brewery manufactures Olde
English Malt Liquor. According to the
lady who took us on the tour, they are the
biggest manufacturer of malt liquOr in the
state. I thought about the people I'd
watched drinking Olde English out of the
large bottles. The bottles probably came
from the Olympia Brewery.
The Brewery also makes Buckhorn
Beer. My friends downtown spend their
spare time drinking Buckhorn beer and
making up slogans for it. They print the
slogans out on computer paper and arrange
them in a mandala shape on a wall in their
kitchen. They have about twenty different
slogans. Here is my favorite so far: "If
women had wet dreams: Buckhorn."
In the guest receiving area of the
Brewery you can put fifty cents in one slot
and a penny in the other and a machine
will smash the penny into a lozenge shape
and stamp a beer name on it. Paul got a
Hamm's penny. He likes the Hamm's
commercials.
We brought our editor a six-pack of
Olympia Dark, wJtich she'd never seen
before.·She says she will keep il·ontop of
her refrigerator for a long tiine before she
drinks it. She wants people to look at it
and ask what it is, so she can tell them.
Andrew Hamlin doesn't think he'd like
the "Capital Mall" style Diy cans Linda
told him about.
'U:l1 TIRRIYBKI
by Tammy Robacker
If you can't fmd Kristin Engels
painting or working .on a sculpture in the
Evergreen An Building, perhaps you
might try looking for her at the Tacoma
Scrap and Metal Yard. Lately, she's been
spending hours there, digging and
searching through piles of chicken wire,
mesh and metal shavings.
Kristin leaves the scrap yard with
buckets full of metal paraphernalia;
material for the current sculpture projects
she is working on. "This is my frrst
attempt at doing sculpture," says Kristin, a
senior at The Evergreen State College.
The program she is currently
involved in, Grasp Tight the Old Ways,
(instructors: Marilyn Frasca and Joe
Fedderson}, is now displaying a wide
variety of student artwork in the Library
Art Gallery. Grasp Tight the Old Ways
will be displaying their artwork until Jan.
31.
Kristin's edition to the gallery
showing is in the back of the room, but
definitely not hard to spot. It is the largest
work in the showing and one of the most
interesting. Her piece is presently untitled;
however, "I'm working on the title," she
says. The untitled work is a life-sized
sculpture of two wiry, metallic individuals
playing a wild and confusing game of
chess with game pieces that come in forms
of animals and also people.
- ~-= '---' ir-li-qUite intriguing to note the
craftsmanship of the small figures as well
as the large. They're intricate weavings of
wire mesh and colorful beads. Kristin has
done a wonderful job of capturing their

galleries and viewing other works by new
artists, "It's important to see what other
artists are doing; states Kristin, "If you
want to get new ideas, get inspired, you
have to go out and see what's going on."
When asked about the differences
in instructors and curriculwn between
Evergreen and Central, Kristin replied,
"The Evergreen instructors offer
challenges and support. Now, I'm more
independent. There is a different
atmosphere here. The concentration is on
creativity instead of deadlines and strict
discipline. At Central, we studied the wellknowns, but now I'm being introduced to
artists who aren't as well-known but
whose work is more expressionistic in a
personal sense."
Since Kristin is graduating this
year, she told me of her future plans, "I'd
like to do more sculpture. Work on body
forms and the abstraction of body fOnDS."

pursue a career in the art field in the
future. Her intensity and passionate ideas
are a part of her that can only get better
with time and development. She did have
one bit of advice for all fellow artists,
"When you represent yourself in a piece of
artwork, that piece will hold a lot more
quality."

Germ warfare: tips ·to ease flu ·suffering
The season of flu-type illness is
upon us and the Evergreen community is
experiencing it. In the frrst week of the
quarter. the Student lIea1th Center has
seen many people who have this illness. .
It is important to be ·aware that
while it is quite uncomfortable. in most
cases so far it does not appear to be
serious.
The most noticeable symptoms
of this virus include:
Fever. Some people · have had
