Conventional means of ending the
arms race seem to be going nowhere.
Reagan, Weinberger, and company
appear to be hell-bent on a never ending build up of nuclear weapons.
Maybe the silent majority of
Americans opposed to the arms race
should just give up and go home.
Then again, maybe they shouldn't.
They shouldn't because "the most
spectacular effort to alter the course
of history is yet to come, The Great
Peace March," says Phil Howard,
campus spokesperson for the march.
This long trek, which will last 9
months, cover 3,235 miles, and include .5,000 people; wil begin March
1 in Los Angeles, California.
While the sponsoring organization, PRO-PEACE, is encouraging
marchers to come for the entire
period, part-time marchers are also
being accepted. Because an array of
services is going to be provided,
PRO-PEACE needs to carefully
regulate the numbers of people marching on a day-to-day basis. A
movable city of 2,500 tents, meals
and a host of other services will sustain marchers.
The minimum time allowed for a
part-time marcher who wants to
utilize the services is two weeks. Normally this would be difficult for a
student. However, PRO-PEACE is
leaving no stone unturned; a "College on Foot" program has been
developed. This program provides
educational activities to marchers
and includes independent study programs. Students here should find
this particularly convenient because
of Evergreen's. individual learning
contracts.
Of course the ultimate attraction
is the goal of ending the arms race.

the arms race from countless peace

group demonstrations that have
been unsuccessful at stopping the
Reagan administration's nuclear
buildup?
"It is the most dedicated effort yet
to get people to agree on the issue
that threatens us the most, the
possibility of nuclear war," says
Howard. Fiv,e thousand people
traveling through 15 states over the
period of 255 days in the cause of
peace is certainly unmatched in the
course of history. Howard feels it
will gain quite a bit of attention,
"the march will gain nine months of
media attention. While 5,000 march,
a network of thousands more
dedicated to the cause of disarmament will be created. That is
something politicians can relate to. "
PRO-PEACE does not endorse
any particular disarmament plan -only bilateral verifiable disarmament. Since bilateral disarmament
would necessarily include the. Russians, long range plans are being
developed for a similar demonstration on the other side of the world.
The Great Peace March is not the
final step on the homefront either,
as it is to be followed by acts of
peaceful civil disobedience around
the nation. Howard says he is interested in having demonstrations
here to support the march.
"Whether it be speeches, rallies or
whatever, we need to demonstrate
solidarity with the marchers. Any
contribution is helpful."
Those interested in participating
in the march can obtain information
in front of the Peace and Conflict
Resolution Center, LIB 3234. Applications must be sent in prior to
March I for those interested in go ing on the entire march. Those interested in going on the march for
a brief period of time may apply
anytime up until the end of the
journey .

The Evergreen/University of EI
Salvador Sister College Committee,
a group of Evergreen students,
faculty and administrators, will be
seeking signatures for a resolution
declaring Evergreen a sister college
to the University of EI Salvador, according to Tim Marshall, Campus
Ministries coodinator.
The sister college project began
here in November 1985 with a visit
by EI Salvadoran activist Antonio
Quesada, president of the General
Association of Salvadoran University Students, and one of the II people listed as assasination targets in
an EI Salvadoran newspaper in July
1985 . After Quesada spoke in the
library lobby about the El
Salvadoran government's civil rights
abuses, a group consisting of about
40 students, faculty and administrators, met to discuss developing a sister college relationship.
From this original group the project
has evolved, said Marshall.
By becoming a sister college, he
said, the Evergreen community
could put international pressure on
the EI Salvadoran government , thus
preventing future human rights
abuses and forced closures.
"The EI Salvadoran government

does not want bad international
press in regards to their human
rights violations. And they cannot
afford bad U .S. press because their
government's existence depends
upon U.S. aid," he explained.
"Therefore, we could keep close
track of human rights violations on
the University community and
publicly denounce them when they
occur."
The University of EI Salvador,
known for an interdisciplinary approach with an emphasis on problem
solving similar to Evergreen's, was
reopened in 1984 after four years of
forced closure. "Because the University is involved in addressing social
issues and working for social
change," Marshall says, "they have
been
at
odds
with
their
government. "
"In 1980 the military invaded the
campus and closed the University,"
he continued, "A number of
students and
faculty
were
assasinated at the time . And 70
members of a
real
poor
neighborhood that the University
was trying to help were also
assasinated by the army .
"The Army took just about
everything out of the University that
wasn't nailed down. They took

books, microscopes, lab equipment,
desks and chairs . They broke most
of the windows. They destroyed the
chemiscry lab . They bombed the student association office."
According to the Constitution of
EI Salvador, the University is not only guaranteed the right to exist , but
it is also guaranteed full funding
with academic and governing
autonomy, Marshall said. "At present, the university of EI Salvador is
only receiving enough funds to cover
the salaries of professors."
Along with the resolution declaring Evergreen a sister college,
associated projects include organizing an art exchange, raising and sending funds or materials to replace
those destroyed in the invasion and
organizing student and faculty
exchanges.
Marshall and two others from different colleges escorted Quesada
back to EI Salvador to ensure his
safe return and to learn more about
the University of El Salvador. Marshall says he hopes that these slides,
when shown here at noon Tuesday,
February 4, in LH I, will show to
others the story of the University of
EI Salvador's role in socia l change.
its destruction in J 980, and the needs
they have as an academic institution.

New construction a possibility
for College Activities Building
by Kathi Durkin and Michael Tobin
S&A meets at II :45 a.m. Wednesday, February .5 in CAB 104 to
discuss various proposals that would
centrally locate student governance
and student group offices.
Twenty S&A funded student
groups are presently located in the
library building, and 14 other student grpups are scattered throughout
the campus. This isolates them from
the College Activitie~ Building.
CAB Phase'll is a 1978 construction proposal to change the floor
plan and add on to the third floor
deck of the CAB. This will provide
13 additional student group office
spaces. This is an attempt to provide
space for existing and future student
groups.
J on Collier, architect consultant
on the project says, "If construction
were to begin this spring, the cost
would be $1.513 million." Ken
Winkley, associated vice president
for administrative services, says he
doesn't expect any major accomplishments for another couple of
years. However , S&A is expecting a
pro forma financial statement to be
completed in about a month. That
study should reveal the debt -service
capacity to S&A, Winkley said.
Although that financial statement
is a month away, Paul Tyler and
Clay Zollars, of the S&A Board,
have expressed that the CAB Pha se
II project would seriously jeopardize

the current levels of student group
funding, which could result in a
reduction in the number of student
groups and services.
Besides, they say, while student
group demands for space is at a
premium, the CAB Phase I I plan
calls for only 13 offices . "Obviously this plan is totally inadequate 10
serve our present student needs, not
to mention any future demand,"

says Tyler.
CAB Phase HI, while still open
for discussion, is a new proposition
initiated by S&A Board member
Pegi Lee which may alleviate the
space problems. It entails suggestions such as moving the Bookstore
to the library lobby to provide partitioned office space for student
groups. Tyler said he hopes every
student organization head will be at
the meeting to discuss this issue .

Planning Council to determine long range goals
by_ Joseph C. Follansbee
The Strategic Planning Council
will hold its first meeting Wednesday, February 5 at President
Olander's house in an effort to
create a long range plan for The
Evergreen State College. VicePresident and Provost Patrick Hill,
who will chair the council, calls for
intensive student input into the planning process. "Students should be
involved because we need their help
in clarifying what's working and
what's not working around the college," Hill said.
Five students are to be selected by
an open student forum at 12:30 p.m.
Wednesday, February 5 in CAB 104.
One st udent will serve on the Planning Council, two will serve on the
Values and Aspirations Committee,
and two on the Environmental Committee. Students choosing their own
representatives is an historic first for
Evergreen.
President Olander, in a memo to

faculty and staff, says, "I will charge
the Planning Council with the
responsibility of producing a document that outlines a plan for carrying forward what is best about this
institution in ways that are clearly
responsive to an external environment undergoing rapid change."
According to the memo, the
Strategic Plan will state explicitly the
intentions of Evergreen for the next
six to 10 years, and will clarify institutional priorities both for internal decisions and for those unfamiliar with the college.
The Planning Council itself will
consist of seven to 10 members
selected from the faculty , student
body, staff, Board of Trustees, the
Foundation Board of Governors,
and alumn. Working with the Council will be two subcommittess: a
seven to 10 member Values and
Aspirations Committee made up of
faculty, academic deans, students,
staff, and alumn, and a seven to 10
member Environmental committee

that includes the same constituencies
as the Values and Aspirations Committee, though not the same persons.
According to a memo from Hill
to possible committee members, the
Values and Aspirations Committee
will identify the basic values of
Evergreen, examine how those
values are practiced, and check on
how the various campus constituencies think Evergreen is or isn't living up to those·',alues and practices.
"In approaching this task, it must
be stressed that the Planning Council is not concerned to question the
soundness of our basic values," the
memo says. "Rather, we are concerned to determine where we currently stand on the spectrum of
values which have been central to
this institution."
The Environmental Committee,
according to another memo by Hill,
will focus on how the college can
build upon, preserve, and expand
fundamental strengths in response to

rapidly changing external conditions. "We want to assess the external environment and to identify the
most prominent and unavoidable
features of that environment which
are affecting, or will affect, the
future of this ·college," Hill says.
Hill says both subcommittees will
work in tandem and will generate a
dialogue on the future of Evergreen
within the Planning Council and on
the campus as a whole .
According to memos from the
provost's office, interim reports
from the subcommittees are due by
the week of March 10 with final
reports due in May . The Planning
Council's final plan and recommendations to President Olander are due
June 13.
In a meeting with students on
Wednesday of last week, Provost
Hill outlined the basic structure and
charge of the Planning Council and
subcommittees. Students expressed
concern as to how the Council will
solicit student input and suggested

direct contact through the mail or
personal cOjltact with students by
Council members.
In an interview after the meeting,
Hill said the college must recognize
that the external environment is
changing and the college must adjust
to it. He also said a strategic plan
was necessary since the new state
Higher Education Coordinating
Board will want to see it when it
meets this summer.
Hill is especially interested in student input, since unlike the faculty
and staff, students have no overall
body from which to solicit information. Concerned students can contact his office or Vice President for
Student Affairs Gail Martin's office
for details. Hill says, "If you value
the kind of education that you've
had, and you want it to be available
to others like yourself, and you want
an alternative in the state to be
preserved and to be responsive to the
needs of people, then somebody has
to get involved."

Peace Center, and Innerplace.
Banyacya was chosen in 1948 by the
Hopi tribal heads to spread a
message of peace for the Hopi peo-

pie, to warn the world of the dangers
of further nuclear production, and
to visit other native American tribes
in an attempt to unify the native
Americans in their fight against
extinction.

"Danger is coming very close.
That is when nature becomes very
active. We'll be helpless. Nature
warns us we are not following the
law of the Great Spirit. We pollute
the air so much, many things start
drying up," Banyacya said.
However, he also stressed the fact
that Hopi legend says there are two
paths: one to" destruction, and the
one to peace, where humankind and
the earth live as one again. "It's up
to women folk now," he said, stressing his belief that the power to save
the earth is no longer in the hands
of the men, but in the hands of the
women.
Banyacya finished on the positive
note that everyone could help by sending donations to the Big Mountain
Support Group through the Northwest Indian Center in LIB 3221,
or directly to Banyacya,at P.O. Box

Banyacya was brought to Campus

To be made readily available, the
flow of campus information relies
on communication within the TESC
community. Michael Tobin, managing editor of the Cooper Point Journal, recently voiced concern about
information supplied to the paper.
"There should be one place at
Evergreen to get information to the
campus," Tobin stated. As he
spoke, he pointed to the I NFOR MATlON CENTER sign outside the
College Activities Building from the
CPJ office window. "Information
should be channeled inlO one
~ ource ." indicating the Informal ion Center should be the focal
point. He funher went on 10 say that
information should then flow to the
CPJ. "I nformation should go
through the newspapet, it is Ihe
newspaper's job ."
The problem with information
supplied to the CP J, Tobin says, is

that the paper all too often receives
dated or past due information. This
hurts the campus two-fold. First,
some events will have low attendance
because they were not in the CP J (if
someone was depending on the
schedule in the paper). Second, the
CPJ staff can't cover an event they
don't know about. Therefore, the
campus com munity may never find
out about these events. Since the
CPJ is distributed campus-wide and·
also to the Olympia-Thurston County area, it would be to the advantage
of groups 10 at least get events
pub li shed in the CPJ calenda"r.
As Natasha Harvey, coordinator
of the Information Center notes,
"You have to look. All the information is available, but people don't
know how to get it." taking a walk
around the campus, one can get a
sense of all the information that is
avai lable. Bulletin boards are
everywhere, with papers flowing off
the edges. Natasha admits that her

first year at the college she didn't
have time to get involved in events,
so she didn't look for information .
She didn't even know the Information Center existed. However,
Harvey says, "Now it's my job."
The information available is written up, published, and produced by
several entities on campus . The
amount of papers can be overwhelming: Information Services put
out two publications, Happenings
(weekly) and the Newsletter (biweekly). Information for Happenings is formulated from Production
C learance Reports on scheduled
events and in formation provided by
the campus community; Student Activities office sends out a "Campus
Activities Master Schedule," as well
as a "Di rect o r y of Student
Organizations and Services."
Soon, the S&A Office will also
print a "Cultural Awareness Calen dar" for any cultural event, according to Helen Gilmore. Also

Computer director candidates voice their
differing philosophies of electronic learning
by Andris M. Wollam
Four candidates for the directorship of Computer Services were interviewed the past few weeks .
Students, staff and faculty met last
Wednesday to decide which candidate they will recomend to President Olander. The position will
begin July first. A short sketch of
each candidate will follow:
Don Smith:
Currently the assistant director of
the Academic Computing Center at
the University of Washington, Smith
was the manager of information
systems for the Department of
Labor and Industries in Olympia for
14 years . Smith received an A.A. in
business from East Los Angeles College in 1962 and a B.A . in business
administration from Puget Sound
University in Tacoma in 1980.
As a manager, Smith says he
believes in getting work done
through subordinates, and participaing in a shared decision-making process. He said, through this process,
he would gain a higher level of commitment from those to be affected
by the decision. He has an open door
policy to . "clients," his term for
users of computing resources. He
says he believes in "listening" to the
heartbeat of clients."
It is worth it to the institution to
pursue grants and discounts in order
to meet the special computing needs
of the campus, he says, especially
since the grantwriting process takes
so little time.
Grants would help meet the
special needs of the advanced computer-science students, Smith says.

He also proposes to involve advanced, technically-oriented computer
science students in the Computer
Center by hiring them based on
talents and capabilities. These
students, he says, can teach other
students intensive, introductory
short courses to familiarize them
with computing. Employing such
students, especially through subsidized programs, benefits both the
institution and the student, he says.

ship position at Bradley since 1972
until she left in October to work in
this part of the country. Frobish
received a B.A. in matilematics from
Northwestern University in 1965 and
an M.S. in statistical mathematics in
1968 at the University of Illinois.
Responding to questions at the allcampus
interview,
Frobish
characterized her management style
as informal and open, saying, "My
management style is to hire good
people and let them do their jobs."
In response to a question about the
managerial problems she has faced
in the past, Frobish replied, "I try
to manage so there aren't any significant managerial problems."
According to Frobish, in an ideal
campus computing environment
everybody would have a computer
and all college courses would utilize
computing appropriately . The Computer Center would act as a
facilitator, finding out what
resources were needed and providing
shared central resources. She is in
favor of 24-hour access to computing resources with operator support at all times; this supports her
belief that resources should be used
as much as they can be. Frobish says
she believes that the Computer
Center should provide workshops

Media Center offers hands-on learning
by Sharon Lee Nicholson
The Media Production Center
(MPC) , in LIB 1302, fulfills
Evergreen's philosophy of stressing
media literacy in its curricula. Use
of the center has grown from 7,000
in 1975 to 11 ,000 in 1985, according
to the MPC records. Students in all
programs have the opportunity to
add multi-media dimension to their
Evergreen experience.
Wyatt Cates, Media Center Coordinator, actively participates in the
growth of the media-academe relationship. "My main job is to teach .
I spend 50 percent to 60 percent of
my time teaching -- 45 workshops
and \ or 2 part-time courses a year,
says Cates. I like teaching; it keeps
me growing. The students are so
clever and they really want to learn. "
As well as managing the Center
and working with programs, Cates

priority for equipment access.
Academic programs carry the most
weight, followed by TESC productions such as KAOS radio shows.
When available, the media production equipment may be used by campus and non-campus users . "It's important to mention that we are here
to serve the academic needs of the
college __ not just those who want to
tape their entire record collection,"
Cates stresses. He goes on to say that
the Center is liberal in that policy,
however, because of the importance
of general media literacy.
Just how does a student use the
Media Production Center? The most
frequent use is by those in the Mass
Communications Program. Kevin
Brownlee and Greg Monta,
members of the audio workshop in

Mass Communications, have high
praise for the Center, especially
Cates' contribution to their audio
production activities.
"I had a radio program at Centralia (Community College), but I
didn't have to do any of my own
production. This is my first handson exposure to the equipment. It's
great," Monta says . Brownlee
echoes his enthusiasm, "For audio,
the Center and Wyatt are fantastic!"
Cates categorizes MPC use by
other programs as either passive or
active. Passive (and more traditional) use includes viewing of film
or video tape at the Center which has
facilities for previewing by faculty or
viewing by an entire class.
Active use of the Media Center requires imagination and motivation

but, for Cates, the results are exciting. When teaching in a program
like Political Ecology, he has encouraged students to do slide and
tape shows rather than a standard,
written term paper. In order to make
such a production, the student must
edit images and add audio to the
presentation. Often a 6O-minute interview tape is condensed to 5
minutes .
For those who feel uneasy working with media equipment, MPC
staff members are available to
"help the novice learn how to create
effective presentations, write interesting programs and make efficient use of tools , time and
materials." (" Library Calendiary,"
pg. 30).
The wide spectrum of available

V 0 Iunteers soug h. t b y S&A B oar d

teaches a four-credit class , "Media
forthe Uninitiated ." The goal is expressed in th e course title . "It tak es
away th at mystery," Cates sa ys.
" Before , th e people in radio and
teievision were some kind of gods.
But it [radio and television] isn't all
that hard to do. "
As students become media users
and producers, their awareness increases. The aim of " Media for the
. .. d'" IS not necessan'1 y to
U ntnttlate
train future producers and directors;
rather, it is to "train them to be
more aware of how they are being
a ffected by commercial media -- not
ju st advertising, but news, sitcoms,
and others," Cates says.
The MPC policy makes clear the

but to date, no faculty or staff

demanding . Persons interested

equipment makes the Center popular
and reservations are required for the
work stations. The Center has audio
mixing benches, dubbing stations,
slide-tape program production
facilities
and
photography
copystands.
" I think that it's most important
for people to learn to manipulate the
audio and change things. The student learns. Everything students hear
and see is manipulated and they
learn how that process takes place,"
Cates says.
The Media Production Center is
designed and managed to be accessible. Using the wide array of media
equipment, students frame their
education in the context of current
technology.

Dear CPl,
I am angry and needless to say,
I'm frustrated with the security
system at T.E.S.C. Why don't they
concentrate on their jobs and get
"organized"?
On Saturday night, JanuaFY 25,
\986, our neighbors in mod 304B
had a party . It didn't bother us in
303A and we went about our
business. At I a .m., my husband,
Terry, looked out the windows of
our home to check the bikes, (a
motorcycle and our 10-year-old
daughter's bicycle) before turning
out the lights and going to bed.
Everything seemed fine. We got into bed and shortly after heard people outside our bedroom window
yelling and having a good'ol time.
We didn't look out the window
figuring they were just having fun.
They sure were! Evidently with our
daughter's bicycle!!!
At 8:30 a .m., Sunday, I was outside taking her bike down off the
roof of the bicycle stand near our
mod, only to see that it had been ridden by persons and ruined. Thanks
people! At 9:30 a.m. Terry and I
were sitting in the office of security, giving a report about the happening to officer Cordova. He took the

report and sympathetically assured
us he would look into this situation
as he has children and understood
the dilemna we were in. We thanked him and went home expecting
him to carry out his job .
At 4:30 p.m. Sunday, I called
security and asked if officer Cordova had started his investigation.
The man on the phone told me (Cordova) had a couple of emergencies
to attend to. He said someone would
be down soon to start ' the
investigation.
At 9:40 a.m. Monday, again I
went to the security office and ask ed about the situation. I was told no
more had been added to the report
and the officer wouldn ' t be in again
until Wednesday.
As far as our neighbors are concerned, I'd like to keep the peace . I
would also like Brenda's bike
rep"ired or replaced. I don't really
care "WHO" did the damage .

There's more
to life than
governance
Editor,
Mr. Tyler's (Jan 23) editorial
angered me. Telling other people
what their priorities should be is arrogant. I won't recount the difficulties I've encountered as an
Evergreen athlete . I have chosen to
be a student athlete because my mind
and body are the only things that I
truly own. I'm sure that it is just as
difficult, and rewarding, to be a
political Greener. However, people
cannot be brow-beaten into being
political. The decision to raise one's
voice is a very personal one. The
students and staff who lobbied for
crew equipment are an example of
how the system works, not how it
fails.
I must also say that Cath Johnson
and all the Recreation and Athletics
staff are people of vision and commitment. That they have built a
viable program in an often hostile
enviornment is proof of this. Having seen these people stand in the
pouring rain on their time-off, to
support Evergreen teams as they
struggled against big-money, bigschool teams, no one could convince
me that any of them are here for "a
shiny little trophy." These people
are helping to create a better
Evergreen, and a better world, by
helping people to develop their own
potential.
Whether we choose to realize our
potential through academics,
athletics, art, or governance, the important thing is that we have chosen
to accept a challenge and to grow.
Let's not trivialize each other's
choices.

GESCCO
defended
To the Editor,
David George made some very
good points concerning the expenditure of student fees for an untried
student project, the downtown student center (GESCCO). When programs such as printmaking are being shut down due to lack of funds
why should student activity fees be
spent on a project like this, he asks?
This is just one of the questions that
the S&A Board considered when it
decided to take a chance on
GESCCO. I'm glad to see the debate
starting to break out into the larger

THE COOI!ER POINT JOURNAL

community.
David and I both share a concern
that the Expresssive Arts programs
were cut in half. That is a concern
many of us share . Why did this happen? Joe Olander'S speech to the
Evergreen Community last fall
might provide an answer. Joe
pointed out that schools that get
funded are schools that coordinate
with government "economic
development" programs . Most
business-oriented legislators do not,
I'm sure, equate the fine arts with
economic development. In fact,
since they have virtually no contact
with any student body they probably
don't equate student concerns and
values with much of anything. It is
to educate them and other members
of the community about these values
that GESCCO was partly conceived.
It can be a long-run opportunity for
students to lobby for their own funding agendas by demonstrating a
commitment to programs other than
economically "justifiable" ones.
Maybe GESCCO isn't the best idea
for getting our voices heard, but if
we don't try something we will remain effectively mute, our hands
will be tied, and valuable programs
like printmaking will continue to get
the shaft.

Advisory
Board
Clarified
Dear Folks:
Compliments to Joe Follansbee.
His article in last week's issue on opposition to the Advisory Board proposal is a good presentation of a
complex problem. I'd like to clarifv
and compliment his efforts. Earlv in
the article Joe wrote "the report
assumes." We were talking about an
earlier draft. The report is not public
at this time, we don't know what it
assumes.
Probably for brevity, Joe didn't
mention that much of my opposition
to the AB proposal is based on the
problems in the Governance DTF's
procedure. I think we've made a
mist e because:
No written charge was given to
he DTF. The confusion which
resulted led to a complete disagreement between Joe Olander and the
DTF on the meaning of that charge.
The DTF told us their charge was to
design an advisory board for the
president. At Joe's student Forum
last week he said that the charge was
to throughly study campus-wide
Rovernance. How can we accept the
product of such misunderstandinll.?
2) The DTF held no public forums
until after a draft was written. This
kept the DTF from finding out that
there was widespread opposiion to
their interpretation of the charge and
to the assumptions about Evergreen
upon which their work was based.
3) The DTF operated' in near
secrecy for over a month. For one
reason or another, no minutes or
other public communication were
made available for weeks preceding
the publication of the first draft.
4) The DTF's own decisionmaking process was not defined,
consistent, or fair. Carolyn Dobbs
claims that decisions were made by
~onsensus. The decision to limit
students' control over the selection
of their own members on the AB was
made over the objections and behind
the backs of student members of the
DTF, That's not consensus .
5) The DTF did not honor important promises to students. It did not
study campus-wide governance. It
did not give "special consideration"
to the needs of disenfranchised
students. It did not read all written
comments on the proposal before
making final decisions. It did not include the many minority opinions on

page 5

the draft sent to Joe Olander.
I participated in the process,
share responsibility for this mistake .
This letter discharges me of some of
that responsibility. But there is
something more important that I
share, something Joe-Follansbee left
out at the very end of my last statement in his article. I share the hope
and determination of many people
that" ... we will get over it." We will
make it better. Hell, we are making
it better.
Cheers,
James Mershon

Sports not
the problem
To Paul Tyler,
Your article about governance
taking the back seat raised an in' teresting question ; why aren't people involved in governance? As I
recall, your answer was that competitive sports, combined with
classes, leave little or no time for
students to be involved in governance. Well, you're right in a limited
sense -- if I spend 15-20 hours a
week , e.g., rowing, I can not spend
that same time at governance
meetings.
But Paul, if we take away
athletics, that doesn't mean people
will flock to the Student Forum
meetings. Your friend was interested
in governance, but she was more interested in rowing . This seems to be
the crux of your problem; either not
enough students are interested in
governance, or they are not interested enough to get involved. This
problem of lack of interest was
around before competitive sports
started at Evergreen.
I do think competitive sports reinforces the problem in one sense.
When athletics recruits students
because of their abilities, e.g., as
good soccer players, and do not consider whether the students value the
goals 0 f the institution as a whole,
then I think athletics has done a
disservice to all of us. But who
knows the values of Evergreen?
Who has even read the social contract? Not many of us.
Let's not throw the blame for
disinterest around. Let's work with
those involved and keep information
flowing so people know the issues
and have the chance to become involved when they are ready .

CAB II
discussed
An Open Letter to Evergreen :

By far, the biggest issue in terms
of spending student fees that has
ever come before the S&A Board,
this or any other year, is the proposal to spend'several million dollars
of student money on a new addition
to the CAB, known as CAB Phase
II. This new addition would be purchased by iSf uing construction
bonds . Part of the $70 "student activity" fee that students pay every
quarter would be used to pay these
bonds off over the next 20 or 30
years .
Nobody knows yet just how much
this is going to cost, but it will be
well over $2 million . What would we
be buying with this money? The current plan includes building the addition onto the third floor deck of
the CAB, moving student group ofiices from the library into the new
wing, and having administration and
academics moving into the library
space that student groups vacate.
We agree that academics and administration need that space, but we
are not sure that the move needs to
cost anyone in the Evergreen community millions of dollars. Nor are
we convinced that the CAB Phase II
will be as beneficial to the Evergreen
community as another option might
be. In the interest of opening up a
dialogue we would like to offer an
alternative idea and in vite
discussion.

A confrontation with the Powers That Be
My name is ... Joe Smith. [ had
other names before entering the lecture hall rotunda the evening of
Tuesday, Jan. 21, but those have
since been forgotten. [ left class
early hoping to catch the 9:30 p.m.
showing of Jo(e) Smith. The receptionist at the rotunda door asked
if I wanted tickets to the [ 1:00 p.m.
show. "Has the 9:30 show already
begun? What about the 10 p.m.
show? Couldn't I see a show before
II if [ wait arountl?" " Do you
want a ticket for the [ I p .m. show
or don't you!" the woman sternly
repeated after each question.
"Yes!" [ replied. "Make certain
you're here- ow e don't allow
cancellations. And be sure you arrive 5 to 10 minutes before
showtime to insure your reservation," she snapped, and handed me
the four of diamonds with a safety
pin through it and a list of 15
authoritative instructions headed
"JO(E) SM[TH CONFRONTS
THE POWERS THAT BE."
[ can't put into words the events
that took place during this "performance/ installation" afte'r death led
us outside the rotunda and down
the stairs to the "secret" rooms of

the lecture halls. There were dancing girls, marshmallow wars, musicians, politicians, meditation
rooms, and barking dogs. It was
the kind of transformative venture
that one must have experienced to
comprehend. I'm told ours was the
last group to experience Jo(e)
Smith, and we sang "This Land Is
Your Land" at the end. Then death
came again and, after making sure
we had no unfinished business, he
herded us out into the bitter
winter's cold . In 45 minutes, I had
been stripped of my identity and
renamed Jo(e) Smith, and [shared
confusions and frustrations, annoyances and hilarity with 15 other
Jo(e)s. In a 12 hour period, Jo(e)
Smith "confronted the powers that
be" 11 times for groups of 15 people at a time (with many repeat
visitors.) I would like to personally thank and salute the many Jo(e)s
who donated time and talents
generously to bring us "JO(E)
SMITH CONFRONTS THE
POWERS THAT BE." [n this day
of budget cuts, cynicism, and
apathy it is truly inspiring to know
that there are still at least a few
honest J o(e)s working hard
towards a beller tomorrow .

Native American exhibit created

"Untitled" by Donna Fromviller, beads, buckskin, bone and shell. Photo
by Colleen Chartier.

"Beyond B[ue Mountains," a
modern Native American art exhibit, opened about two weeks ago
at the Capitol museum, at 2[ 1 W.
21 st street. The exhibit will be running through March. 2. After the
stay at the museum the exhibit will
add a few more pieces and begin
touring Washington sc hools as a
three component / part series. The
themes for the three works have
not been decided yet. "Beyond
Blue Mountains" will be the first
direct purchase collection of The
Washington State Arts Commission to travel throughout the state.
The art was amassed by Deborah
Rutherford, coordinator of the
State Arts Commission, and Jim
Schopert, who visited Native
American tribes in the Western and
Northwestern United States, and in
particular Washington area tribes .
After the pieces were chosen a 93
person panel chose them for the
show. The Arts Commission purchased the works to form an educational, as well as an aesthetic ex-

hibit. "The works show differences
and smililarities between Native
American works in the U.S . and
Washington. As well, a lot of the
pieces show a transition from traditiona[ to contemporary artwork."
said Lisa Hill, the curator of exhibits. All of the pieces were
created in 1984 and 1985, with the
exception of a corn husk bag from
.
the 30's.
Many of the pieces are traditiona[ art, suc h as masks, beading,
woodwork, and painting, with
modern' twists to them: a punk bear
made from discarded metal, a surreal mask. The exhibit is on the
main floor of the museum. On the
second floor of the museum is the
museum's standard Native
American exhibit which dates back
to
the Native American's
sovereignity on the Northwest
coast. Although the use of color
and the styles are different , the
spirit and m'!ny of the types of expression are similar in both
exhibits.

The title of the exhibit was taken
from a poem by Jim Schopert, '
which is included in the exhibit. Accompanying each work of art is a
quote by the artist. Lisa Hill, who
made the decision to accompany
the art with the artist's quotes said, .
'" chose to also add the artist's
statements because it adds a human
element, a cultural identity for each
piece." .
All of the art is capital, and
demonstrates that the Native
Americans are still close to their
culture and history while running
apace with the rest of the world.

Tribute to Japan: Evergreen offers chance to taste tea-sip of Japanese life and culture
by Bob Baumgartner

Keith Lazelle 's nature photography is on display at Childhood 's
End Gallery January 24-February 28, 1986

Welcome to Arion
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla ., Jan. 28-The space
shuttle Challenger exploded in a ball of fire just a
minute and a quarter after it left the launching pad
today, apparently killing all seven astronauts on
board.
-The New York Times

The above is how the Times began their shuttle

explosion reporting and it kept that tone through
its explosion reporting; that tone , however, com
across as a cold manner to treat such an event.
good news article should deal with facts and
the writer's feelings . A magazine article, on the oth
hand, offers writers an opportunity to express th
own feelings . And so we offer Arion.
Arion is a new home for interpretive journalism
and creative writing . Arion is a place where the
of the shuttle tragedy can take second place to feelings evoked by the tragedy (please see the shuttle
story on page 10).
Arion is a chance to experiment with journalism .
We hope anyone wanting to push the limits of journa
ism will take advantage of Arion. For inspiration,
we suggest such diverse journalists as Hunter S.
Thompson, Tom Wolfe, and H.L. Mencken.
Arion is also very open to all forms of creative
writing . We want short fiction, essays, sudden inspirations, or whatever writers want to share through
Arion. Arion is a place for any good creative writing.
We only have one major restriction on articles
submitted for Arion : articles should be accessible
to the readers. Readers should be able to understand what is printed in Arion. Writers should feel
free to break rules of journalism, style and grammar, unless the breaking of a rule turns the article
into a quagmire; for example, keep verbs in
sentences if the' lack of verbs makes your sentences
unintelligiQle.
Arion, though, is just one magazine in the CPJ's
new three magazine cycle and we hope to receive
support, in the form of articles, for all three
magazines.
The magazine that follows Arion in the cycle is
Warmed-Over Cabbage. Cabbage is a hu
magazine and we have received plenty of article
for it, so Cabbage will appear next week.
The third magazine, Groovy Tooth (which
music), has had a mixed past. Last quarter saw
very successful debut issue of Groovy Tooth; I
week, however, there was too little copy to put
the planned second issue . Tooth should include
just reviews, but also features on musicians, ronr,nC'1
on the local and non-local music scenes, and "''''';~\I'''
on types of music and music issues.
If you want magazines in the CPJ, you would b
best advised to submit articles.
The following chart gives the deadlines for turn
ing in articles, and the publication dates for th
magazines:
Magazine

The Tribute to Japan invites us to

sample a different culture in a way
similar to sampling a new tea. In one
day we don't become immersed; we
get a gentle sip -- a sip with a flavor
that lingers, reminding us of its
presence and difference.
In the opening ceremony, Governor
Booth Gardner pointed out the opportunity that this taste provided. To me,
this theme repeated itself throughout
the day.
At 12:30 p.m. there were Tokiwaki
dancers -- dancers with smooth, shiny
hair like doli's hair, and faces like
porcelain, expressive with subtle steps.
At 1:45 p.m. there was a mamasan
chorus . At 4 p.m. an aikido show. The
events continued, and the displays

spread througout the Library building's
four stories into the adjacent Lecture
Hall. there were posters of Japan,
Japanese caligraphy, umbrellas,
kimonos, thongs, tea cups, sushi, rice,
fish kites .... It was more than enough
to hold your interest and keep you
moving. Even kids had plenty to do:
hearing stories, making kites, and watching Japanese cartoons.
The first taste of a cultural comparison came in a joke alluding to the
different degrees of formality expected
in the East and West. After Governor
Gardner finished his opening speech,
commenting on how the atmosphere
of the Tribute lifted his spirits,
Evergreen President Joe Olander joked that he would fill in the transition
from West to East by moving from the
front of the stage, where Governor
Gardner had spoken, to behind the
podium, where the more formal
Japanese Consul General, 'Toshio
Isogai, would speak.
From there on, the contrast between
West and East widened.

, A bonsai tree display contrasts the East's willingness to wait for slow growth with western
tImber company 's desire for fast growing trees ,

A bonsai display on the third floor
of the library building seemed to illustrate the differences. There were
ancient-looking trees, twisted and
gnarled and beautiful, all carefully
trimmed and trained. Some were bent
as if wind had been blowing at them
every day and night for a hundred
years. They reminded me of trees on
an ocean cliff or at Hurricane Ridge in
the Olympics. One tree was 125 years
old and under two feet tall . Here,
timber companies are constantly
developing new varieties of trees to
grow larger faster. The West would not
have time for a tree that grew two feet
in 125 years.
In "The Discipline of Bonsai'" by
Pieree Kaufke, a pamphlet set out by
the Bonsai Club of Olympia, you get
a hint of the importance of meditative
rituals in Eastern culture :

" The Japanese Relocation During World War II, " a slide tape by Evergreen faculty member Judith Espinola, is shown at the
to Japan; the slide tape documents the results of President Roosevelt's executive order No. 9066 issued two months after
attacked Pearl Harbor.

"While attending to the watering,
the pinching or debudding, the bonsaiist has a tremendous chance to
think and to meditate without being
disturbed. "
In another part of the article, the importance of ritual and discipline is
stated:
"The daily reaffirmation of such action is tremendous; they result in people who can face life with the
knowledge that they have diSCiplined
themselves to the point where they can
perform at least one positive action
every day, that by that action they have
kept something living alive a little
longer.' ,
There is some understated joy in
this, as there is in the music, the dancing, the caligraphy. Contrast this with
what a person in the crowd beside me
said, while watching a Japanese
woman make toy umbrellas: "It makes
me feel really disconnected. What can
we make? " Then she murmured
something about McDonald's .

Maybe some explanation can be
found in a difference of values. On the
bonsai table, between the rhodedendron , the spruce and the azalea, there
were cards with Japanese poems. A
poem from "The Unknown Craftsman" by Soetsu Yonagi expresses
some values:
"The plain and unagitated, the uncalculated, the harmless , the
straightforward, the natural, the innocent, the humble, the modest; where
does beauty lie if not in these
qualities?' ,
These values extend even into
aikido, a modern Japanese martial art.
This may seem surprising as you
watch what might appear to be people in pajamas tripping and flipping
each other. But when George Ledyard,
,aikido instructor from the Seattle
School of Aikido, explained the
philosophy behind the movement, the
connection becomes clear.

Aikido begins with the concept that
the universe is basically in a state of
harmony. (Contrast this with the
Western Biblical belief where people
fell out of harmony through their sin .)
There is no competition, no winner or
loser, only a moving meditation. The
aikido student accepts the attack, and
blends with the energy, turning it on
the attacker. Aikido translates roughly
as " goes the way," he explained .
Another aikido demonstrator explained how she, standing a trim five feet ,
can be as effective as her 200 pound
instructor: "My center is as big as
anybody else 's." She explained that
the key is an extension of spirit, the
spirit center that connects with earth
and sky. She described aikido as
aerobic, spiritual development. .

War II."

Govemor Booth Gardner jokes during the
opening ceremony.
A demonstration of aikido, a modern Japanese martial art, shows how to use one's spirit center to blend with an attacker's energy in
order to turn the energy on the attacker.

A mamasan chorus entertains the Tribute to Japan audience.

Japanese dance is presented.

The Tribute to Japan -- along with
the cultural comparisons it offered -was complete with the substance that
makes any event a success . Lt had the
color, the food, the music, the pleasant crOWd, the activities . It had the
cute children (in the kids' kimono
fashion show) who were afraid of going on stage, the kids who danced , the
kidswho giggled , kids who had to tap
the one in front of them to get their
buddy to go off-stage. All the ingredients that make any event a success,
were there .
Welton Nekota, announcer for the
Tribute and coordinlltor of the Asian
Pacific Island Coalition;' said after the
event, "The Tribute to Japan bridges
the cultural gaps." People open up and
see new perspectives. They come here
and learn, and enjoy.

Shuttle disaster 'claims
god-heroes' mortal side
by Joseph G. FoUansbee

On Tuesday moming I woke up a littte late and
cut myself shaving. No problem. ' A little direct
pressure and a minor tragedy over. My roomate
came in and tumed.on the radio. The space shuttle had blown uP. killing everyone aboard.
"This can't be real," someone said, as if the
shuttle's fiery death was a nightmarish TV movie
that could be turned off at a whim. But it was real.
In a graceful arc of light and smoke, life had been
snuffed out. Real life.
We hear about death every day. A car wreck. A
shooting. A terrorist attack. Yet these deaths, unless
the victim is someone we know, don't affect us
much. "Life goes on," we say to ourselves and
we go to work and we eat our lunch and forget
So what's the difference? The TV pictures showed
no blood. We heard no screams, no last words to
mark on a tombstone . We saw no heroics to tell
our grandchildren about. Just another plane crash
more or less.
But these deaths were different. These victims
were astronauts, god-heroes, knowers of knowledge
only a handful share. They had what Tom Wolfe
calls "the right stuff," the courage, the moxie , the
sheer animal strength to spar with death and come
out alive. They were the high priests of everything
we love in ourselves and they died.
One of my first clear memories is Christmas Day,
1966. I was seven years old and I received a
wonderful gift. Santa gave me a GI-Joe complete
with a sparkling silver space suit and a white helmet
and a foot-tall model of a Mercury capsule, just like
the Mercury craft that carried the first Americans
into space in the early '60 's .
My dad and I watched the old Gemini launches
during the mid-'60's and we followed the Apollo
launches, first ADOlio 7, which tested the ADOlio
Poem One
by Sue Reams

spacecraft, then Apollo 8, which circled the Moon.
On Christmas Eve, 1968, the astronauts read from
Genesis and with them we saw the pale blue earth
rise on the lunar horizon.
When I was nine years old I bought. with two
months worth of saved allowance. a 36-inch tall
plastic model of the Satum 5 rocket, complete with
the spidery lunar lander which carried the Apollo
11 crew to their landing on the Sea of Tranquility.
I listened to Walter Cronkite tell me for hours how
this was done and that was done and that everything
was A-OK. At two o'clock in the moming I saw Neil
Armstrong take his first steps on another celestial
body. What was on the TV was as real to me as
the complaints from Mom to turn off the TV and
go to bed.

Vicki Cochrane's recent work. Watercolor portraits, are on display at Childhood's End Gallery
January 24-February 28, 1986.

I remember how the nation's heart beat faster
for almost two weeks as we waited to see whether
the crew of Apollo 13 would make it home after
part of their ship blew up. That time, they made
it back home alive. The crew of Challenger didn't.
I can't forget the images. I can 't forget the smoke
and the fire and the shower of debris falling into
the sea. I can't forget Tom Brokaw droning on and
on ceaselessly and meaninglessly. I can't forget the
fire and smoke. I can 't forget the faces of those
five men and two women who no longer exist. I
can't forget the pain I felt as I watched those people die.
Yeah, life goes on. The pain will fade and another
shuttle will be launched and we'll all go about our
business as usual. Sometimes death is the price
we pay for our curiosity.
The cut on my chin is healed; the trickle of blood
wiped away with a cloth. But I can't wipe away the
astronaut's deaths so easily. Most of us will forget
their faces and those terrible images. Not me. I've
always felt a part of me was with \tlOse men and
women as they flew. Now, a part of me has been
lost.

Long ago I was left in that
incubator.
I draw it with female
nudes reclining
Their breasts full, hips rounded .

Present system hamstrings accountability

Is Evergreen answering its own challenge?

continued from page 12
by Joseph G. Follansbee
Imagine yourself among a group
of immigrants seeking a new land
you just purchased for the first lime
in your new country. Imagine knowing this virgin soil is yours , and with
your friends, neighbors , and
relatives you have the opportunity of
starting fresh, free to create a new
community, free to create a new Ii fe
for yourself and your family.
The dream of the Evergreen State
College in the early years must not
have been too different from these
men and women . Administrators,
teachers , and students came together
10 create a new community of learning , and to work the virgin soil of
new ideas and alternative ways of
thinking. They came with the excitement and anticipation of immigrants
to a new land , and as immigrants ,
th ey carried with them the cultural ,
intellecutal, and emotional baggage
of their old ways.
Yet, unlike many immigrants who
quickly took on the identity of "an
American " or " a Canadian," and
for whom that identity meant
something as concrete as the soil
they tilled or the goods they made,
the men and women who called
themselves "Greeners" had no such
conception of what that title meant;
when they did, they could not or

would not agree.
This lack of identity caused and
still causes anxiety. As Davip Marr
says of his " M and M Manifesto,'"
written in 1972: "We argued in that
paper that 'the problem' is caused by
our refusal as a community to grapple with the problem of institutional
self-identity, so that we can figure
out who we are, where we're going,
how we're going to get there, etc .
That whole bundle of questions has,
in fact, been deferred, and we've
dealt with it as little as possible, just

ization .
Amanda Goldberg, coordinator
for the Peace and Conflict Resolution Center, wrote a draft paper in
the spring of 1985 which discusses
her perception of Evergreen today,
especially students. "How much of
an alternative is Evergreen? Its
academic programs and approaches
to education grow less diverse.
Students do not make decisions for
the campus and there is no evidence
of faith in the students to make those
kinds of decisions. The students do

fed off each other in creating a new
mode of learning.
"Now, I believe many faculty and
staff feel they've done their duty.
They have sat on three, four, five,
12 DTF's (Disappearing Task
Forces); they have attended six or
seven years of standing committees.
They're tired of that and they feel
very protective about the time in
their program and they feel it may
be inappropriate to do the kind of
campus governance discussions
needed at the expense of discussion

year, biennium to biennium ."
Partly due to the individualized
nature of the college which allows
each to pursue their own dream
within the dream of Evergreen, and
partly due to the lack of an agreed
upon self-definition, many of the
problems complained about in the
early years are still with us, some virtually unchanged. Letters to The
Paper (now the Cooper Point Journal) in 1973 speak of lack of social
interaction, lack of information and
communication, and factional-

not have a strong voice. They are
apathetic and passive to some
degree, they are also unorganized
and isolated, narrowly and individually focused," Goldberg says.
Mike Hall, Director of Student
Activities and a graduate of
Evergreen, offered his perception of
the attitudes of some of today' s
faculty and staff. In the past, he
says, much of the excitement of the
institution was transferred from the
faculty and staff to the students. The
students were excited by the faculty's excitement and the two groups

in their classes. Now, there's not the
same sort of degree of enthusiasm
among students because it is not promoted by the faculty and staff,"
Hall says .
Evergreen',s concept of governance, virtually unchanged since the
first few months of Evergreen's existence, is the best example of how
Evergreen has grown or not grown
in the past 15 years. David Marr and
Rudy Martin, in their 1972 discussion of identity, speak of
governance.

Evergreen needs leadership, definition
by Joseph G. FoUansbee

The Evergreen State College is in
transition. No longer are we an experiment in the sense of people putting together something new and different as we did in the early years.
The experiment has become the institution . The experiment has succeeded; we have survived and are
fast becoming part of the "establishment" of the last quarter of the
twentieth century. Witness the press
coverage we've received over the
past few years.

study, narrative evaluations, etc.,
each person went his own way to one
degree or another. Each person was
and is encouraged to pursue his'own
dream within the dream of Evergeen
and this autonomy may lead to walls
of greater or lesser thiclmess between
groups and individuals. Without a
central, shared focus, beyond the
ideal of creating an education, communication becomes difficuilt,
maybe impossible.
Even so, the strength of Evergreen
lies in the individual strengths of
people able to say to themselves, "I

Because we are different, we are
particularly vulnerable. Now is the
time to state who we are.
And yet, Evergreen has not chang~
ed since the first few months of the
1971 -72 academic year when the college first opened its doors. A large
percentage of the faculty, staff, and
administrators hired in the first few
years are still here and still working.
Many former students have been
recycled back into the institution as
faculty, staff, or administrators.
As a community, we are still a collection of incredibly independent individuals, many of whom came here
looking for an alternative to "traditional" higher education. Amazing-'
ly, we still complain of almost exactly the same problems we complained about in the early years such as
lac k of communication, but these
problems are not necessarily unique
to Evergreen as an institution. As someone once said, "The more things
change, th e more they stay the
same. "
Why do we complain about the
same old problems? A possible
answer may lie in the natute of the
college itself. After the college said
what it wasn't, that is, no grades, no
tenure, etc., then said in extremely
vagu~ language what it would attempt, that is, interdisciplinary

that it needs to work well," he says. ,
Hall suggests that governance is an
important part of a student's education. "If we cannot effectively
govern our society, what good is all
that knowledge?" he says.
Earlier this month, the AlICampus governance Disappearing
Task Force recommended to President Olander a new governance
body: and advisory Board, made up
of representatives of students, faculty, and staff.
Out of the discussions about
governance both yesterday and today, one fact stands out. Of aU the
documents, the memos, the catalogs,
the papers, and the letters researched, not once is the word 'leadership"
used. One explanation may be an
historical fear of authority at
Evergreen. In 1972, Marr aild Martin cited as one of the causes of "the
problem" a failure of academic
leadership by a faculty and administration afraid of charges of
authoritarianism. Part of the fear
might also be traced to the
widespread distrust of authority that
evolved out of Vietnam and
Watergate, which took place while
Evergreen was being conceived.
That historical fear of authority
may have evolved into something
quite different today. Gail Martin,

characterizes an institution requires
a decision-making system that supports that identity rather than contradicts it," they say. They see the
system of governance, for example,
the DTF, as self-contradictory, a
conflict management model rather
than a decision-making one. They
say in 1972 that under Evergreen's
system of governance, debate often
happens after decisions are made instead of before, and the system is accordingly used to undermine decisions rather than make them .
They state that the DTF system
"lacks a concept of the common
good and enshrines the principle of
unlimited individualism in its
place.''' For them, DTF's fragment ,
the college's need for administration
into a series of unconnected tasks.
They make locatability and accountability impossible and usurp the
prerogative of administrators by serving the ends of decision making instead of bringing community thinking to bear on specific problems .
However, some support the
system of governance Evergreen has
evolved. In a memo to the now
defunct Evergreen Council dated
April 11, 1985, Mike Hall suggested
fine tuning the system rather than
totally revamping it. "It's not an
overall bad system, it just hasn't
been given the institutional support.

can create an education for myself.
Evergreen is my opportunity."
Here, an imaginative person can find
ways to grow that the boundaries of
a traditional education might not
allow.
But precisely because of the
perceived open-ended promise of
Evergreen, unchecked by any statement of educational values, beliefs,
or expectations, a person's personal
expectations of this place often run
rampant. When confronted by the
reality of working within the boundaries that do exist, implied or otherwise, frustration and anger appear.
Lack of an institutional selfdefinition is a problem. Who are we
as an educational institution and
what do we stand for? According to
the neo-Freudian psychoanalyst Eric
Erickson, identity or self-definition
for a human being is his sense of
placement within the world -- the
meaning he attaches to himself in the
broader context of life.
Erickson's definition could include institutions. A mature institution, because it is ultimately made up
of people, must also have ali identity . Like a person, it must have a
sense of place in the world -- a mean-

ing for itself in the broader context
of the culture.
Some may say we have an identity. We function therefore we know
who we are. Unfortunately, the facts
do not bear this out. In no document, memo, or catalog do we state
comprehensively what we stand for
and believe in . In each interview, no
one gave a clear indication of what
Evergreen was, beyond the vague
positives and their own interpretation of these positives. The only exceptions were David Marr and Rudy
Martin and theirs was incomplete
since they failed to take into account
the transient population and other
external forces except the state
legislature.
Some may say we don't need an
identity. We' ve survived for 15 years
without one. This may be a bit of
whistling in the dark. We say we are
an alternative, but so what? Who
says Washington state needs an
alternative to the UW or WSU? In
a time of tight budgets, especially in
Washington state where a sluggish
economy is a continuing problem, an
identity is particularly important.
Because we say we are an alternative
and spout vagaries like interdisciplinary study and cooperative
rather than competitive learning, we
will sooner or later be asked to
justify ourselves. If we have to
justify ourselves, we will have to explain who we are and what we
believe in. In short, we shall have to
agree on an identity. However, in an
institution where individual effort is
so highly prized, one wonders if
forging a collective identity is
possible.
At the moment, we bask in the
warm light of public acceptance. An
explanation of our educational
values seems a low priority. Yet, one
day we will shiver in the cold light
or public scrutiny, and if we cannot
say clearly and comprehensively
what we stand for and be
understood, we will be closed .
Because we are different, we are particularly vulnerable. Now is the time
to state who we are.
One of the great things about

Evergreen is the huge number of opportunities for any member of the
community to take a leadership role
through the various boards, committees, forums, DTF's, and student
groups. Mike Hall, Director of Student Activities, points out that
leadership is a part of education. Yet
all too often, these opportunities are
an empty facade and leadership expresses itself in a vacuum.
At the beginning of the academic
year, President Olander called
together a Disappearing Task Force
to study the question of governance
and design an advisory board for the
president.. The DTF met, studied the
problem, made recommendations,
solicited community response, and
disbanded. What happens next? Are
we to simply trust the president to
implement the recommendations? Is
the governance question now
answered for good? Who do we
complain to if the advisory board
doesn' t work? Where does the
responsibility lie? If things don't
work out, will another DTF be
formed? If that doesn't work, what
then?
Earlier, the question arose as to
why many of our complaints have

\

disappearing nature of the problem
solving mechanisms, the opportunity
for follow-through by leaders,
especially those who make the decisions or recommendations, simply
does not exist. We are left to depend
on those to whom recommendations
are given to follow up on them. In
short, no true system of oversight or
"checks and balances" exists.
Realistically, anyone who pelieves
Evergreen is or could be a participatory democracy is fooling
himself. Power is given to the president who receives it from the Board
of Trustees who get it from the state
legislature . What are we really arguing about is the delegation of that
power and the use of it. But in that
delegation we have not decided how
it is to be used effectively and what
internal policy decisions We can
make and what decisions must be
specifically reserved to the president
and his administrators. As a result,
we are confused and frustrated.
When thinking of Evergreen as a
whole, one is reminded of an adolescent child. Indeed, we are 15 years
old this year. We are excited by our
opportunities and proud of our accomplishments. Yet, we struggle
without an identity.

survived virtually unaltered since the
early years. Another answer lies in
the short-tenn, ad-hoc, task-oriented
nature of how Evergr~n thinks. In
mechanisms such as the DTF, 10ngterm internal policy questions
become exercises in hit and run tactics rather than strategic, long-tenn
planning. Vigorous debate therefore
becomes superficial and pointless.
Problems do not simply "disappear" once a Disappearing Task
Force publishes its recommendations.
Furthermore, because of th e

The future looks pretty much like
a case of "more of the same." When
one remembers that the large percentage of original people are still
around and that the college in many
ways hasn't changed, one wonders
about future institutional dynamics.
Where are the "movers and
shakers" of tomorrow? Are they
even being sought out?
As individuals, our future looks
great. But as an institution, we are
in danger of becoming complacent
in our present status and success. We
have no specific goals.

vice-president for Student Affairs
says fear of authority resides within
each individual. "There is, 'of
course, a real uneasiness about external authority and about what pe0ple and institutions can do to you
and your life. But there's also an
uneasiness about one's own internal
sense of agency or authority or the
lack thereof in the world and how
much you want to take the leadership position or not. One of my worries about students now is that they
don't want that kind of role in the

this community who are ready, willing, and able to step into leadership
roles, but I think there are proportionately fewer people now who are
willing to do that," he says. Hall
cited the example of leadership in the
academic setting, such as in seminars
where the faculty are careful not to
take a stand that impedes students
from taking a leader role. Hall says
Evergreen has lots of leaders, just
not the same ones every week.
Leadership exists but it's not centralized. However, he says, under

time. As long as there's a willingness
among members of the Evergreen
community to say, 'Yeah, I see ajob
that needs doing and I'll step in to
take care of that and 'you can count
on me to do that but after that I need
to get on to something else; leadership will happen here," he says.
Goldberg sees the leadership question and the problem of governance
in general as an information problem. She sees the root cause of inactivity on the part of students as a
lack of infonnation. "I think not

world, that they've seen too much
abuse of it. They don't identify with
it," she says.
Martin notes that some students
she works with are exactly the ones
she would like to see take on leadership roles in the wider community.
In them, she sees a great sense of self
restraint and public conscience, excellent traits for someone in a public
role.
Hall says leadership is a strong
part of Evergreen. "There are still
a si~nificant number of people in

PEACE CORPS

Charles McCann, founding president of the college, now teaching
"Great Books, ", in response to 'a
question about direction for the college, says, "Direction? What direction? What are we? A tank division?
A naval task force? We are a community of people engaged in
learning. ' ,
Leadership at Evergreen then is
diverse, widespread, and spread out.
One could argue that each person at
Evergreen is a leader by simply tak ing the risk of enrolling or teaching
at an "alternative" college. Each individual shows the strength of a
leader in this regard. Also, because
of the academic setting, each person
has the opportunity to lead in
presenting his or her own ideas ,
However, in terms of long-term
policy making, leadership is more
difficult to express. In an intermittent, task-oriented approach such as
a DTF instead of a long-term policy
approach with a continuing decision
making body, a leader cannot
follow-up on decisions or be accountable for them. The present system
hamstrings the goal of accountability
for decisions and the goal of
locatability because of its "disappearing" nature. Once the decision
makers are gone, no one is
responsible.

Evergreen's system accountability
and locatability isn't as strong as in
other systems.
Is the ad hoc system of leadership
at Evergreen still appropriate today?
According to Hall, the current
system is appropriate if people have
the energy and inclination to take on
a leadership role and they know
they're not going to be stuck there.
"I think perhaps there are people
who fear that if they express a willingness to take a leadership position
then they're stuck with it for a long

caring comes from not knowing . If
you know then you can make a
choice whether you care about it or
not. If you don' t know what's going on with governance, how can
you kow what difference it will
make?" she says. Even though she
has taken an important role in campus affairs, such as serving on the
Governance DTF, she rejects the title of leader for herself saying, "We
are all leaders in our own way."
Certainly, leadership does not
mean simply the giving of orders.

Surviving thrills, chills, spills, and

Swimming teams still kicking despite problems
by Bob ' Reed
Members of the men's and
women's swim teams will be taking
up permanent residence at the pool
at the rate they 're going! They kicked off another busy week by hosting
Portland Community College
Wednesday, January 22. The men
won with a score of 71 to 29 while
the women lost 45 to 55.
The women's team, plagued by
sickness and grade problems, had
just five swimmers competing. Martha Grazier provided one of the
highlights with a lifetime best in the
100 yard freestyle, winning in 103.5
seconds.
The Geoduck men 's team, considerably stronger than the Portland
team, used the meet as an opportunity to swim their "off" events. The
men were able to swim events they
would not normally swim.
The Highline meet, friday

and had lost to Highline in the invitational meets earlier this season.
The drama started with the first
race, the 200 yard medley relay.
Swimming against Highline's
strongest swimmers, Evergreen's
Casey Pratt, Max Gilpin, David
Koenig and Robert Bruns pulled out
a narrow victory with a time of

"Robert just out-touched the (final)

For the men, that first race turned out to be a sign of things to come.
Koenig won the 50 yard and 100
yard butterfly events, Burke Anderson had personal bests in the 200
yard and 500 yard freestyle events
and Max Gilpin won the 50 yard and

IN BRIEF ********

sports fans, Evergreen does have a
track team!!! The men and women, coached by
local running standout and all-round fitness
guru Pete Steilberg and his knowledgeable staff,
compete in the sprints, field events (watch out
for that javelin!), distance events and any other
events that have sufficient support. The teams
usually meet Monday thru Friday frolJl 4-6 pm .
but also alternative times for those people with
scheduling problems. Call Pete at Ext. 6537
A SCHOOL RECORD!!! The men's swim
team bested the school single season meet win
record when they claimed their fifth win of the
season, a victory over Linfield. The women
pulled out a close one with Pacific by a score of
39 - 38 ! The Geoducks travel to Oregon this
weekend and will be playing at home Friday,
Feb. 7, at 7 p.m. Be there, or be square.
