Campus lesbians work an information booth in the

archway built by Marcus Frank and Tod Streater,
which stands in front of the Library. Both are part
of National Coming Out Week, sponsored at
Evergreen by the Lesbian/Gay/Bisexual People's
Resource Center, culminating with National
Coming Out Day on Friday the 11th, and a dance
on Saturday the 12th in Library 4300. The
LGBPRC is calling for, among other things, an
openly gay student in next year's catalog, the
hiring of openly gay professors and staff, improved
AIDS education for students, and improved

about gay/lesbian issues that you can't
discuss them frankly and honestly in the
context of a well-written book?
LW: That has been the central question in
my head for six to seven months. My
answer is this: I think people fear things
they don't understand. So how can we
craft a process that engages people in a
frank discussion? To be honest-I've been
thinking about this a lot lately-people
seem to be more afraid of and have more
misunderstandings about gay, lesbian and
bisexual issues, in my experience, than
they do with issues like racism or
economics, or unemployment, or even
things like war and death. That's why
when I said I want to invite people to a
discussion rather than scare them into
one. Sometimes people have been scared
into a discussion, by someone else, and
then later they realize, "Hey, I needed
that" I don't know if that would work or
not with this issue. I really need to figure
out a way to deal with parental concerns.
TS: The reason parents are afraid is
because they don't have any information.
Therefore it would be in the school's best
interest to provide them with that.
LW: I think that's where you have a very
good point, that it is the responsibility of
good programming work, of good
educational processes, is that we be
daring in involving students.

by Aaron Best and Scott Richardson
Evergreen's recycling program is in a
state of disarray. Bottles and cans have
overflowed their collection barrels,
cardboard has been thrown into
dumpsters, and hundreds of pounds of
paper sit waiting for Evergreen's recycling
program to return to operation.
Since the middle of August the
recycling program has had no coordinator,
no student workers, and no budget. One
custodian devotes 20 hours per week to
collection of recyclables.
The recycling program is in a period
of transition, moving from a primarily
student-coordinated program to an
institutionalized one headed by a
permanent coordinator, who will devise
and implement cost-effective wastereduction and recycling strategies for the
college.
The Personnel Office is reviewing
applications for the position of Recycling
Program Coordinator and will conduct
interviews in upcoming weeks.
Although there is a hiring freeze in
effect, Jamil Qureshi, vice president of
finance and administration, is hopeful that
a Recycling Program Coordinator can be
funded with existing revenue.
Pressure to create an official college
recycling program increased in January
when Governor Booth Gardner announced
his Government Options to Landfill
Disposal Plan (G.O.L.D) which directed
all state facilities to: begin an annual
reduction in the amount of hazardous and
solid wastes created, recycle 50% of solid
waste by 1995, and increase by 50% the
use of recycled paper and paper products
by July 1, 1993.
In response to the G.O.L.D. Plan,
Interim President Les Puree and Qureshi
appointed a Disappearing Task Force
(DTP) to look into the issue of waste
reduction and recycling at Evergreen. The
DTF's report, released for consideration
last May and adopted by the
administration,
included
the
recommendation to create the position of
Recycling Coordinator.
Aaron Best and Scott Richardson are
covering recycling issues for the CPJ.

Artists work for freedom of expression
by Garth Colasurdo
"The good lord and the voters of
North Carolina willing, I will be back in
the Senate next year and those artists and
homosexuals ain't seen nothing yet"—
Jesse Helms' U.S. Senate Speech Oct.
1990 (Re-elected Nov. 1990).
I was reading through the spring 1991
National Campaign for Freedom of
Expression's (NCFE) bulletin when I
found the above statement as an invitation
to join the NCFE, and it seems to be a
pretty good reason.
The NCFE, formed by artists and arts
activists, is a non-profit organization
whose goal is to educate and mobilize
artists, arts patrons, and concerned citizens
to the actions of congress, and other
censorship incidents across the country.
This organization comes after many
attacks on artists' first amendment rights,
and specifically spurned by the Helms
amendment in 1989 which required
recipients of a National Endowment for
the Arts (NBA) grant to promise not to
make "offensive", pornographic, or homoerotic art, and to conform to a general
standard of decency.

Working with other arts and civil
rights organizations, the NCFE collects,
distributes, and acts on information and
events affecting the ability of individuals
to continue creative endeavors. Currently
the NCFE, the American Civil Liberties
Union, and the Center for Constitutional
Rights are engaged in a joint lawsuit
against the NBA because of its grant
denials based on content.
NBA grants are awarded by a very
simple process. A peer panel reviews the
applications and support materials (most
of the emphasis is on the support
materials demonstrating the work of the
artist). This peer panel is comprised of
artists of the same discipline, critics,
professors, and knowledgeable members
of the community. They then recommend,
to the chair of that program, who should
receive the grant and how much based on,
as they feel, the quality of the artist and
their work. This recommendation is
usually carried out with out a problem.
However, in the solo performance
category, chairperson John Frohnmayer
asked the peer panel to reconsider the
choices of Karen Finley, Holly Hughes,

John Fleck, and Tim Miller because of erosions of access to information and
the content of their work; specifically funds in both public and private arenas.

Evergreen recycling

Searching for a world without waste

by Scott Richards* a
Evergreen's Recycling program has
battled against a waste stream full of
tribulations since its inception, and this
year is no exception.
George Leago, director of facilities,
who has just begun to guide the faltering
program, describes the program's history
as "a series of fundings bridged over by
enthusiasm and volunteerism."
The program has stalled on one of
those bridges and the evidence is piling
up all over campus. An attempt to hire a

into the mire, of a budget cut and hiring

Leago explained that unseparated glass
often won't be sorted by the vendor. Nor
will bottles left in cardboard containers be
taken. "They'll leave it or take what they
can and leave the mess behind.
[Residents] see this and add to the mess,"
Leago said.
A pile of unsorted recyclables can
make it impossible for vendors to reach
the materials with their truck, and can

In the long term, Leago hopes to see
a program at Evergreen which will
become self-sustaining, and perhaps
profitable. Creating such a program will
require changing ingrained habits. With
the governor's recent directive to reduce
waste and increase recycling effort,
Evergreen has a "waste stream it can't
shut off, and will have to go with the
flow," according to Leago.

a point where use of recycled newsprint

Local deputy admits to satanic rituals
by Chris Bader
In the second installment of a series,
Chris examines the 1988 Paul Ingram
case. Ingram, a former Thurston County
Deputy, admitted to being a member of a
satanic cult that ritually abused children.
Jim Rabie retired in 1987 after 14
years with the Thurston County Sheriff's
Department. He had spent five of those
years as head of the Department's sex
crimes and child abuse unit.
A burly man in his late forties with
dark brown hair, Rabie had no trouble
occupying himself after his retirement. He
became a lobbyist for law enforcement
and a Lieutenant Governor for the local
Kiwanis Club.
On Thursday December 1, 1988,
Rabie stepped into the Sheriff's
Department to return a slide projector he
had borrowed to make a presentation for
the Kiwanis.
The atmosphere in the office was
tense. Rabie knew that a good friend of
his and fellow Sheriff's Department
employee, Paul Ingram, had recently been
accused of sexual abuse by one of his
daughters.

Another Washington

Rabie and his wife, Ruth, a county
corrections officer, were shocked at the
allegations against their long-time friend
and best man at their 1977 wedding. They
offered to let him stay in a trailer near
their property in Rainier, Washington if
the need arose.
After Rabie returned his slide
projector he met up with a couple of
detectives in the hallway and asked them
about the progress of Ingram's case. The
detectives, however, gruffly told Rabie
that they would now like to interview
him. Rabie was escorted into one of the
interrogation rooms he had used so many
times himself.
Over the next several hours, Rabie

found out that Ingram had admitted to
being a ritualistic child abuser, confessing
to the abuse of his daughters and perhaps
his sons. Ingram later admitted to
participating in satanic ceremonies in
which animals were sacrificed.
Most shocking, however, was when
Rabie found out that he had been
implicated.
In an interview with Thurston County
detectives, Ingram claimed that Rabie and
a mutual friend, Ray Risch, a state patrol
mechanic, had participated in the satanic
rituals and in gang rapes of Ingram's
children.
Rabie was arrested that evening and
booked into the Thurston County Jail.
The next day he was transported to the
Mason County Jail and placed in a
solitary confinement cell. A camera
monitored him and the lights in the cell
were on twenty-four hours a day. He had
to call to a guard to be escorted to the
bathroom.
Ray Risch was at his home the night
of Dec. 1, 1988 when officers arrived. He
was taken to the Sheriff's Department,
interviewed and placed under arrest that
evening.
For the Thurston County's Sheriffs

Department,
the arrests were a
breakthrough.
With the help of Paul Ingram, the
only person to have ever been accused
and admitted to satanic ritual child abuse,
the department had started the painful
process of weeding out a satanic
conspiracy believed to be operating in its
midst.
But, the arrests of Rabie and Risch
were just the beginning. Ingram continued
to name other Sheriffs Department
employees as accomplices.
Over the next few years the Sheriffs
Department would deal with the rumor
that gigantic satanic "killing fields" full of
the remains of human sacrifices were in
Mason County, and consider the
possibility that Paul Ingram was the
Green River killer.
To follow this case from the
beginning, we must go back to Aug. of
1988, when the attenders of a Christian
retreat at the Black Lake Bible Camp in
Olympia were about to hear some
shocking revelations....

Geoduck men and women tear up the turf
by Ruth Frobe
The men's soccer team picked up a
win at University of Puget Sound (UPS)
and a loss at Oregon State last week as
their record moved to 4-7-1. The
Geoducks beat UPS behind goals scored
by Scott Foss and John Hall. The first
goal was assisted by Alan Reineke and
Foss set up the second goal for Hall. The
Geoducks played 26 minutes, almost a

third of the game, one player short due to
an ejection. The victory over UPS was
the third consecutive win for Evergreen
following the previous weeks wins over
George Fox College and Warner Pacific.
Evergreen travelled Sunday to face
Oregon State, but were unable to extend
the winning streak. The Beavers went
ahead 1-0 in the second minute of the
match and a Geoduck goal in the tenth
minute from John Marbett tied the game
at 1-1. Unfortunately, however, Oregon
State's Sean Young then delivered a hat
trick (three goals) and the Beavers took
away the 4-1 victory.

Now and then, in the course of

inconsequential facts are accumulated.
Over the course of decades these quanta

small cracks form in the dam, releasing
the dangerous pressure. This can be seen
in such phenomenon as Trivial Pursuit,

KAOS

appreciates
input as
well as
money
by Matthew Lee Johnston
Beginning Friday, Oct. 11, KAOS
Olympia will be conducting the annual
membership drive in order to raise money
for the station so that it can continue to
operate and broadcast. As a volunteer
programmer, I care deeply about the
quality of programming and service that
KAOS provides to the communities of
South Puget Sound. Throughout the
membership drive, programmers will be
pitching for contributions and offering
contribution incentives while explaining
just what KAOS does to serve the
community.
I am concerned about people making
contributions during the membership drive
without really knowing or caring about

tolerable for people of color to harass the

Gun-less security means high risk for everyone
by Jon Wilkie
A serious dilemma faces Evergreen in
the years ahead, a dilemma involving
Campus Security. It seems that since
Security can't carry weapons, they are not
allowed to intervene in "potentially hostile
situations." Instead, they must call up the
Thurston County police, who regularly
take 30 minutes to get to the scene.
What does this mean? It means that,
in the case of the Organic Farm trail rape
(see last issue), Security theoretically
could not of intervened, even if the rape
was still occurring. In a very real
incident, two car thieves were stopped and

detained by several students, who waited
an hour for Thurston County Police to
arrive. Campus Security seems to be part
of a catch-22. The students supposedly
don't want a resident armed police force,
and so the unarmed police that are here
are forced to call Thurston County. In
the end, an armed police officer ends up
on campus anyway, and there is nothing
to prevent it. Furthermore, the question
that also must be considered is: "Which
force do we want on campus, Evergreen
Security or Thurston County Police?"
When asked about the attitude of the
Thurston County officers, one Campus

Security member was quick to say,
"They're not nice."
So what to do? Who will protect
Evergreen
students? Certainly not
Thurston County. Their lack of
promptness renders them powerless.
Campus Security? When their biggest
weapon is a harsh warning, it's doubtful
any would-be criminal takes them
seriously (They even been referred to as
"Campus Jump-Starters.") The students? It
seems that until the students of Evergreen
ask for an armed Security force, they had
better be prepared to protect themselves.
Many people argue that Evergreen is a

place of cooperation, not conflict.
However, Olympia isn't, and when
Evergreen is just a bus ride away, it will
remain prime ground for all me noncooperatives in Olympia. Striving for
peace is admirable, but recognizing that
violence still exists is realistic. So until
the day that people are willing to resolve
this absurd situation, lock the doors, fear
the dark, and always walk in groups.
Jon Wilkie thinks Campus Security is
a contradiction in terms.

as a dean you would think I'd say, "Well
my part is to..."
TS: I don't know what your job is but it
seems to me that would be part of it.
LW: Yes... That's an interesting question
about reticence, that we seem to be so
outspoken on so many other issues.
TS: Yeah, but not this one. And that's
got to change. That's why I'm talking to
you and then you'll take it to someone
else and then this'll be in the CPJ so
even more people will be talking about it.
This is the only way, we have to keep
our issues out there.
LW: And even something, Tod, that's
beyond lifestyles. See, that's the part that
I'm really intrigued about~you wouldn't
want it to be sort of "lifestyles in the
postmodern world," because in a way
that's hiding. Why not be that real
courageous program team that says "Gay
and Lesbian and Bisexual issues among
voters," the whole legislative and
economic package?
* **
LW: Can you recommend texts or books
that my task force can look at? Gloria
Anzaldua...
TS: ...who wrote Borderlands...
LW: ...right, it's not directly related to
gay/lesbian issues.
TS: I've never read it, all I know is what
the CPJ article said.
LW: She uses the metaphor of
"borderlands" as a very interesting
metaphor for anybody who lives in the
"twilight" For her it was being Chicano.
A lot of Mexican Americans live in the
sort of border area of our culture, and on
the physical border of the States as well,
so it's an ingenious metaphor. You know,
I also have a professional responsibility
that I shouldn't let my ignorance dwell. I
should get my butt in the library and start
looking, and I encourage you to send us
recommendations.

TS: That's hard, because there are so
many, I mean it's such a broad topic. My
view of a well-read person is someone
who has read a lot of different books and
I know that at any given time there are
one or two or three books in the
bookstore on gayAesbian issues.
* **
TS: You are mandated by State law to
provide AIDS education to all first year
and transfer students; how many of those
incoming students (1100) do you think
actually received AIDS education this
fall?
LW I guess I don't have an answer for
that..
TS: That's because the answer is zero.
LW: Really.
TS: Yeah. Nothing was done.
LW: Even Student Affairs in their weeklong orientation thing...
TS: There's supposed to be something,
but there wasn't.
LW: That I don't know...
TS: And that's a very important issue that
needs to be addressed, because the fastest
rising population of people with HIV is
teenagers. Because they think they are
immune. This is something that really
needs to be addressed right now, while
these people are young and having sex all
the time everywhere.
LW: I know that even if you get certified
as a counselor you have to go through x
number of hours of AIDS training . I'll
look into it, I thought...
TS: You have to. I don't know if there
are any free condoms on this campus, or
if the Health Center gives them away.
Last year they were selling them. And I
think they need to be given away, and
there must be some money somewhere, to
help protect the lives of the people we
have here. I know it's a really touchy
situation because what we are dealing
with here is sex and death.

Response
Borderlands, from cover
TS: Especially here-this school is
supposed to be the cutting edge and it's
not There are a lot of things that it's
falling behind in.
LW: One of my most significant lessons
last year was winter up week when there
was the panel [sponsored by the
Lesbian/Gay/Bisexual People's Resource
Center]. I simply said, take a look at the
[Evergreen] catalog and notice that there
is nothing [explicitly relating to gay
issues]. We've really hidden it through
these buzzwords like "gender issues."
TS: And incoming people don't know
what these words mean.
* **
TS: It's your turn now.
LW: After your phone call I was
intrigued and this is the motive for my
second question. My second question is:
What was I missing? I think people have
a valid concern about my quote of not
wanting to scare parents into a discussion.
So I was curious to know how that
reading of "scaring parents" could be seen
as a threat to gays, lesbians and bisexuals.
TS: The quote implies that being
homosexual is a scary thing- something
to be dreaded. That's how we were
reading that It's a subtle thing, but
subtlety is how people are oppressed. In
this day and age, you have to be subtle to
oppress, you have to use clever wording.
So it's up to us to read through the
wording. The implication there is that
homosexuality is bad and scary, and it's
not
LW: If you characterize something as
dreaded, the more you want to hide it or
put a lot of distance between you and it.
TS: I realize that you're dealing with the
risk that students may not come here if

this is perceived as a homosexual college-if we talk about gay and lesbian issues a
lot, so I can see that there might be some
fear. In my mind of course, I'd love to
attend such a college.
LW: I would like for us to remain on the
edge and say this is a place you can
come to discuss those issues. I'd like to
think that we would never be afraid to
talk about anything.
TS: That's why I came here, because I
thought it was a school that I could do
that
LW: If there is nothing in the curriculum,
or something that's hidden, for example,
under "gender studies," it does convey
that kind of impression...
TS: Yes, that it's something not to be
proud of, and it's something we do need
to be proud of.
* **
TS: With multiculturalism such a hot
topic within Evergreen and academia, and
gay/lesbian studies so popular that the
most recent issue of Rolling Stone ran a
six-page article on them, why has there
never been a full time lesbian/gay studies
course created during program planning,
so that it could be offered to students in
the college catalog?
LW: I don't know.
TS: Why isn't it ever brought up? In the
planning stages, it's something you could
do. It's something anybody can do and
nobody ever does it because it's one of
those "scary" topics.
LW: I really don't know, because there's
enough of us that want that on the menu.
I've been perhaps inadvertently focusing
on multicultural problems, and in my
scheme of "multicultural," never opened it
up
wide
enough
to
see
that
gay/lesbian/bisexual issues are as much a
multicultural question as for African
Americans or whoever. And so I'm

urged for
orientation
The reason why some animals travel
in herds is because they cannot bear to be
any more than a certain distance apart
from each other. The leader of the herd is
usually that animal who can bear the
furthest distance from the rest of the
pack, once it has fought its way there.
We like to think of Evergreen as a school
which is further apart from the rest, but a
leader for just that reason.
Lately we see that the faculty and
staff who voted on the Orientation
Seminar book choice may be losing the
courage to lead Evergreen in the right
direction.
Are
the
increasingly
conservative political views of America,
the rest of the herd, obscuring our
mission as a multi-cultural school? Or has
it always been that the multi-culturalism
advertised in our catalog refers only to
certain groups, much like our so-called
radical and revolutionary Founding
Fathers' "democracy" for white, landowning males?
We are sure that Cisneros' The House
on Mango Street is an excellent piece of
literature, and we have no problem with
its choice this year. What we do have a
problem with is the philosophy behind the
reasons given for the rejection of
Anzaldua's book Borderlands. As Giselle
Weyte reports in the Sept. 26 CPJ, the
book was not chosen "because of
concerns about the language barrier and
hesitancy among the staff and faculty
about being too aggressive in bringing up
issues of homosexuality with new
students." The language barrier is
addressed by Anzaldua in her book,
stating that now is the time for white
America to meet her halfway. She
examines the political aspects of language
quite clearly in English.
Too aggressive in bringing up the
issues, hmm? We sure are aggressive in
avoiding the issues. As women, we are
used to having our lives reduced to an
issue. But there is a time when we will
draw the line. Does a lesbian not have to
read books that deal with "heterosexual
issues" that might offend her? One of the
things we find most enjoyable about
Anzaldua's book is that she deals with
the politicizing of her being within the
context of presenting herself as a whole
woman, with integrity. Yet the staff and
faculty who spoke out against it seem to
have simplified her, perhaps revealing
their own simplicity. She is not simply a
word, lesbian, or a label for us to bat
around and play out our fears with. We
wonder if the staff and faculty have
actually read the book that they rejected,
for if they have, they have missed the
point entirely and should bone up on their

comprehension.
We knew that sooner or later Evergreen
would buckle under the weight of the
Reagan-Bush years, and we are mournful
of the lost ideals which founded
Evergreen. The response of silence to this
decision seems to affirm our contention
that Evergreen is becoming complacent.
We are no longer moving forward. We
have no choice but to believe that money
is a factor in this decision. We know that
sometimes Evergreen has to play a twofaced game within the state legislature in
order to get funding, but when the false
one blends into our true one, we must
question who we are. And yet we have
allowed ourselves to be intimidated by
still another authority figure, that of our
parents. Again some faculty and staff
have chosen to discredit our principles
rather than perhaps offend the purse
strings. If we are going to be bullied into
compromising our beliefs, then we ought
to stop trumpeting them.
But what if money is not the case?
What if we simply cannot live up to who
we strive to be? The start of the year is
a crucial time to present ourselves as a
learning community to our parents and
new students. In the previously cited
edition of the CPJ, Academic Dean Les
Wong was quoted as saying, "I want to
invite them to discussion, not scare them
into it." How revealing of you, Les. Who
exactly is scared? Has it ever occurred to
him that some of the parents, students,
and community might be lesbian or gay,
or speak Spanish? If you want to invite
us into a discussion, isn't this the perfect
time with a perfect book? Why wait on
this? Will another day be more
appropriate? We have a feeling that that
day will always be in the future. Fear
will not disappear without discussion, and
yet that discussion will not take place had as a reviewer of the Independent
Press by showing off his phenomenal

When lesbians get scared, it is because ignorance about this well-known hoax.

Question CAB
vendors
Are you supporting cultural genocide?
Think about it, you may very well be.
For several years now our community has
welcomed wholesale and retail genocide
of indigenous cultures. We have done
this by allowing certain vendors the
opportunity to sell clothing from Central
and South America at extremely marked
up prices. Weavers of these fine materials
often receive a fraction of what our
friendly vendor does.
There are exceptions, though, such as
folks who work with cooperatives, and
buying directly from the weavers
themselves. Last year, indigenous weavers
were invited to sell directly to our
community. As a matter of fact, two
weavers from Ecuador were set up in the
CAB this week. I believe it is your right
to know whether a vendor is working
independently, with a cooperative, or
comes form the community that produced
these materials. If they are involved with
a co-op, I'm sure they would be more
than happy to tell you about it. If not, it
is up to you to decide if you want to
support someone who may be involved in
ripping people off.
Certain members of this community
have worked hard to stop this type of
abuse. All we are asking is that vendors
be honest about the product they are
attempting to sell. I challenge all of you
to ask questions of these vendors. My
words are given in respect. Thanks for
your time.

successful Campus Telephone Directory
series every year like clockwork, each
gripping tale more exciting than the last.
Happily, Campus Telephone Directory
1991-92 does not break the chain of
successes our literary community has
come to expect from this spirited writer.
The first thing the reader notices
about Campus Telephone Directory 199191 is its cover, a striking tableau of
orange and lemon-yellow checkerboard
squares surrounding a stylized telephone
in the center. Scientists say that "warm"
colors such as orange and yellow
stimulate the base instincts of hunger, and
fear; an ideal way to prepare the reader
for the thrills found inside this little
volume.
Following in the tradition of avant-

garde novels such as Mclnerney's Bright
Lights, Big City, Campus Telephone
Directory 1991-92 is written partially in
the second person, thrusting the reader
into the middle of the story as if to say,
"This is life. Live it." The book opens
with a bang, taking command of the
reader as in the old TV show The Outer
Limits ("Do not adjust your television set.
We are controlling transmission.") In what
could be construed as a warning of things
to come, the book immediately gives the
readers instructions to follow in the case
of an emergency: "If you are calling
about a medical emergency, try to
describe the problem. If a fire, describe
where the fire is." Campus Telephone
Directory 1991-92 is not a book for the
faint at heart; it's a headlong journey into
the unexpected, and those who aren't
prepared may never come out alive.
Tom Clancy, author of The Hunt for
Red October and Patriot Games, is often
lauded for bringing a real sense of
technical know-how to his novels,
describing in detail the various weapons
and weapon systems and how they work.
Campus Telephone Directory 1991-91 is

no different. In order to make the reader
really feel as though s/he is experiencing
the events described within, the book
describes the Evergreen State College
phone system in detail with succinct,
easy-to-follow imperatives. "To activate
[call forwarding]: pick up handset, dial
#1, hear regular dial tone, dial number
calls are to be forwarded to, hang up. To
cancel: Pick up handset, dial #1, hear
regular dial tone, hang up." By the end of
the second section, the reader will have
gained enough knowledge to actually
operate the phone system, which only
adds to the high drama that can be found
later in the book.
The third section is the longest, and
by far the most intriguing. This section is
a microcosm of life at The Evergreen
State College, brought into the reader's
consciousness by the intimate mundane of
a telephone directory. The reader is told
that the Assistant to the President can be
found at extension 6116 or in Library
3108, but that mail should be directed
instead to Library 3103. The reader is left
wondering about this contradiction, but
s/he has no time to think about it; the

book proceeds at a breakneck pace which
is sure to confuse the slow-witted. Like
the fabled alligators in the New York
City sewers, the reader crawls along
under the school's majestic infrastructure,
gathering information from the phone
lines trailing along the dank ground and
rising gracefully up through the floor
above
to
various
offices
and
organizations, each of which leads its own
private existence which the reader is
never quite privy to but which is
intrinsically interconnected to others
through the web of telephone lines that
compose the plot of this intense volume.
By the time the reader reaches the
last of the Z's (Zoske, Arno, CRC 213,
CRC 210, 6521), s/he is exhausted,
emotionally and spiritually, and yet filled
with a sense of purpose which transcends
understanding.
Campus

Directory 1991-92 is more than just a
book. It's a way of life.

If we had twelve fingers

by Rafael Marino

We write numbers in base 10
(decimal numeral system) due to the
anatomical fact that we have 10 fingers. If
we had 12 fingers, we would probably
have adopted a duodecimal numeral
system (a number system in base 12) and
mathematics would have been a little bit
easier. Twelve is a more divisible number
than 10; 12 is divisible by 2, 3, 4 and 6,
while 10 is only divisible by 2 and 5.
Because of this, 12 or multiples of 12
(like 24, 60, and 360) have been used by
many people as bases for measurement,
especially of time. For instance, we
divide one day into 24 hours, one hour
into 60 minutes, one minute into 60
seconds; and we say that an angle that
makes a complete circle has 360 degrees.
Wouldn't it be simpler to say that it has
400 or. a 100 degrees? Additionally, we
count many things by dozens: coke is sold
in 12-packs, and one foot has 12 inches.
The discrepancy between these facts
and our use of a decimal numeral system
has created difficulties, and the obvious
solution to these problems would be to
adopt a duodecimal numeral system which
would have all of the advantages, and
none of the disadvantages, of the decimal
system. I propose a way of dividing time
that is less cumbersome and confusing
than the one that we presently use, a way
in which we define hours and design our
clocks so that they simulate the apparent
motion of the sun during the day. While
presenting my point, I will illustrate that
the way we write mathematics is much
more crucial than most people suspect.
Before presenting my idea, however, we
must clarify some technical details.

THE
MATHEMATICAL
WITNESS
First of all, let's distiguish between
n u m b e r s , which are abstract
mathematical entities, and numerals, the
symbols that different civilizations have
used to denote numbers.
Most
civilizations developed non-positional
notations of numbers, and only a few the Hindus and the Mayas - came up with
a positional notation. The number
notation that we use - the one invented by
the Hindus - is positional. This means
that in a number like 2,507 , the positions
in which the digits 2, 5, 0, and 7 are
written tells us the value of the number.
More precisely, 2,507 corresponds to 2
thousands, 5 hundreds, 0 tens, and 7 units
or
2,507 =
2xl03 + SxlO2 + OxlO1 + 7x10° .
We have expressed our number as a sum
of powers of 10. Because we use powers
of 10 rather than powers of some other
number, we say that our notation of
numbers is decimal. The Romans would
have written MMDVII instead of our
2,507. The Roman number notation is
not positional, that is, the fact that the
letter D is in the third position does not
add anything about its value, 500.
What most people do not realize is
that any number could have been used as a
base for the notation of numbers. For
example, in the city of Bombay, we find
traces of 5 as a base in the way that some

6. It can grow with you.

This week you're majoring in philosophy, next
week it's nuclear physics. After all, no one knows
exactly what the future will bring. That's why
millions of students have found that investing in
a Macintosh is a smart move. Because Macintosh
can immediately help you do whatever you do—
better. And if, come tomorrow, you find that you
want to do something different, no problem. It's
easy to upgrade your Macintosh to help you rise
to the challenge.
7. It's great for college and beyond.

5. All Macintosh programs work In the
same way.

Learn to use one Macintosh program, and you've
learned the basics of using them all. For example,
the commands you use, such as Open, Close, Copy,
Paste, Save, Cut, Print, and Undo, are found in the
same place—every time.

How do we interpret Dozenlandians

The same way that 0.3 means 3/10 ,
0.= would mean (for us) 3/12 or 1/4 .

easily with abaci that, after being used,

In the same way that it is very easy
for us to multiply and divide by 10 or by

=10.L .

Every Macintosh is equipped with an Apple

Just connect the LocalTalk® cable from one

Macintosh prices
have never been

It is believed that Dozenlandians had
contact with the Mayas from whom they
borrowed several ideas for their notation of
numbers and their calendar.
A dash ( - ) represents a finger and a
bar ( |) a hand. The next number (our
number 12) is written _Q . D is their
symbol for zero. Dozenlandians write
numbers like =1131 , which for those of
us accustomed to our decimal notation,
looks like so many meaningless
squiggles. You may want to read =101
"two five zero seven." Let's do some
translation:

Instead of cryptic MS-DOS commands such as COPY C WORD
