April 10, 1986

Campus Minister Tim Marshall
returned last week from a successful
mission to free Antonio Quesada .
Quesada is president of the Student
Association of the University of EI
Salvador, AGEUS, and visited
Evergreen last November as part of
a speaking tour aimed at increasing
public awareness of conditions in El
Salvador.
Last Thursday, Apri l 3, Marshall
gave a lecture, sponsored by the
University of El Salvador Sister College Project, describing his recent
visit to EI Salvador.
Quesada was taken into custody
by plainclothes members of the National Police on Thursday, March
20. He had received widespread atten tion from his speaking tour last
winter, during which he a rgued that
in the fields of human right s and
political freedom s the elected
government of Christian Democrat
lose Napoleon Duarte was no better than its military predecessors .
Quesada was held under suspicion of
belonging to a political party that
advocated the violent overthrow of
the current government. In EI
Salvador it is legal to hold a suspect
without charge for as long as 15
days .
Marshall, who works with
Evergreen Campus Ministries, met
Quesada during his visit here and
was informed of Quesada's arrest by
the Committee in Solidarity with the
Peoples of El Salvador, (CISPES),
the afternoon of March 21.
CISPES asked him to be part of a
three-man delegation to El Salvador
which would work for Quesada's
release. The group included lim
Ru ssell, a professor of Sociology at
Lewis and Clark College, and Pedro
Nuguera, Student Body President of
the University of California at
Berkeley. The group left for San
Franciso Saturday, March 22 and arrived in El Salvador the next
morning .
Marshall felt that Quesada's
notoriety and his American visit

were factors which ultimately protected him. He said that the On
Monday,
March
24,
Marshall's delegation went to the
Ministry to witness Quesada's
release . There they were told that
Quesada's family and a Red Cross
official would receive him. After
Marshall's delegation contacted the
Red Cross, and waited several hours,
an official came and gave Quesada
a physical, noting minor injuries.
Quesada was released to the Red
Cross and escorted back to Marshall's hotel. Most of the international organizations, AGEUS, and
the international press were involved in a march that day that was commemorating Archbishop Romero on
the anniversary of hi s death .
This distracted attention from
Quesada's release.
According to Marshall, Quesada
told him upon their arrival at his
hotel that he had been picked up the
morning of Thursday, March 20
while waiting on a street corner for
a bus. Several men in street clothes
leapt out of a beige Toyota with
tinted windows, assaulled himcausing several scrapes and bruises,
and a minor injury to his right
hand-and then dragged him into
their car. As he was being put into
the car he shouted out his name and
title. Witnesses gave this information
to international organizations, and
the news came to the U.S. that night.
Since there was no announcement of
his arrest this was the only means by
which it was known. Quesada said
he had been on his way to a meeting
with the University of El Salvador's
Executive Co uncil of which he is a
member.
Next, he told Marshall, he was interrogated for 60 hours without
sleep, and remained blindfolded and
handcuffed for the entire period he
was held .
Marshall added that he and
Quesada witnessed an incident
similar to Quesada's arrest while in
a traffic jam On the way back to
Marshall's hotel. This, Marshall explained, greatly agitated Quesada.

The festival of New Growlh opens
Monday, April 14 wilh a 9 a.m.
ceremony at the welcoming pole.

THE EVERGREEN
ST A TE COLLEGE
Olympia. WA 98505

Spring is here, bringing with it the
flowers and long warm days. And
Evergreen's Northwest Indian
Center is celebrating with the
Festival of New Growth.
The Festival of New Growth is a
time for Native Americans to
celebrate being Nat ive American and
share that experience with nonnati ves. And the Festival is an opportunity for both Native Americans
and non-Indians to discuss issues
that are important to the Native
American community.
Speakers will be here to discuss the
strugg le of indigenous peoples, the
effects of hazardous waste at Hanford on nearby tribes, and Indian
fishing rights. For celebra tion there
will be poetry, singers, and the final
day Pow Wow, a social gathering
with lots of music, drumming, and
Traditional Indian dancing.
For more information and a complete schedu le call the Northwest Indian Ce nter at x61 05.

Marshall relaxes afler foreign ifllrigue.
Later that day several representatives of international religious,
human rights groups, and AGEUS
were told of Quesada's release. They
then met with Quesada at Marshall's
hotel. Quesada expressed surprise at
his ea rly release and sa id that most
of the questions during his interogation were not about the party he was
accused of being a member of, but
about names and positions of
members of AGEUS and o th er

university organizations.
After one day in the hotel, Marshall said the group became extremely nervous about being all together
in one place. He said Quesada
recognized a vehicle nearby as the
one that had picked him up . The
next day Marshall was more concerned since Quesada was still with
them, and the group felt there was
an unusuall y large concentration of
National Police near the hotel.

Professor Russell called the U.S.
Embassy, Marshall said, and asked
about what so rt of protection could
be provided to his group.
According to Marshall, a n embassy official told Russell the following: (I.) the government of El
Salvador is a legitimate popularly
elected government, and has the
right to hold and interrogate

State allots TESC big bucks
by Bob Baumgartner
Adjourning weeks before Easter
and one day before the 1986 session's mandated deadline, sta te
legislators prcsented The Evergreen
State College with an unexpected
golden egg -- $563,000 .
Provision" in the supplemental
budget channclthe money into two
areas. A sum of $40,000 goes to the
Washington State Institute for
Public Policy, a research organization based in SEM 3162. The remaining $523,000 goes to the college
for enrollment growth, according to
a news release writeen by Assistant

to the President Stan Marshburn.

Marshburn says Evergreen bega n
the sess ion as the only institution of
higher education not asking for supplemental funding and ended up
receiving the largest supplementa l
appropriation in higher education.
"The Legislature has not fund ed
enrollment growth anywhere in quite
a while," says Budget Director Jack
Daray . "For them to do this in a
short session is really notewort hy,"
he adds.
The appropriation allows an
enro llment increase next year from
2506 to 2600 full time students.
However, students will not notice

much change in thc campus population because of curre nt over enrollment, according to Daray. The
new money covers st udent s a lready
at Evergreen.
Daray sa id legislators approved
th e supplemental budget for various
reasons. Some legislator s may have
voted in recognition of grow ing
enrollment
or
becausc
of
Evergreen's improving reputation:
others like the programs or feel committ ed to the college's growth. But
whatever th eir reasons, their vote expresses confide nce in the college,
Daray says .

Student apathy clouds Planning
by Bob Baumgartner
Unt il th e Thursday April 4 co nsu lt ation, it see med the Strategic
Planning Process would leave
students behind regretting their
apa th y, according to st udents in vo lved in the meetings.
Thome Geo rge, a student on the
Values and Aspirations subcommi ttee to the Strategic Planning Council, said it was, "Like a circus trying to get people involved." Before
Thursday ' s meeting, no more than
I percent of the student population
(about 40 students) has participated
in any governance process, he ~a id.
"We've had quality consu ltations
with a few stud ents, but not quantity," George concluded.
At Wednesday morning's consultation , students were noticably
absent. Only two st udent subcom -

mittce members gave presentat ions,
while about six facult y and sta ff
co mmittee members gave similar
presentations. During the open consultation period, faculty an'd ad ministrators "ither commend ed each
other for work done of th e two subcommitees' drafts. or offered suggestions and minor cr iti cisms. No
students spoke.
Student lames McGuire at tributed studen ts' lack of participati on to three reasons: I) St udents are
busy with school work and activit ies;
2) A lot o f st udents don 'I. care about
campus gove rn ance; 3) Some
students want to ge t involved but
don't know how.
"Students should have more input
due to the fact that they're the major proportion of the community, "
says McGuire, "but on the other
hand, sometimes stude nt s have been

given the opportu ni ty to participatc.
but not enough input was givcn due
to apathy."
Thursday evening, ho wev er.
about 50 studen ts and two alumni
showed up for subcommillee con sultations scheduled to last from
7 :30 to 9:30 p.m. As at the previow,
wnsu ltation on Wedncsday. most of
the questions were directed toward
the Values and Aspirations Committee. But unlike Wednesda y's session,
studen ts generated li vely discussion
about issues th at seemed c1o~e to
them : such as narrati ve evalu ati On> .
graduation requirements, competi tion versus cooperat ion. and the
va lu e of E vergreen' s inter disciplinary approach.

Local Vietnam memorial displays war's effects
by Dennis Held
A memor ial to Washington
residents killed in the Vietnam War
was erected Thursday in the CAB
lobby . The memorial consists of
six 4 foot by 8 foot panels
painted black with over 1000 ~ames
printed on it . It was created by about
30 Tumwater High School students,
according to Mike McGrath, an
Evergreen student and Vietnam
veteran who arranged for the wall's
display here.
"The students wanted to do
something for veterans, because
many of the students have relatives,
fathers in many cases, who were killed in Vietnam," he said.
The display will tour the state in
an attempt to raise $150,000 for a

permanent memorial on the
Washington State Capitol campus,
McGrath said . The design for that
memorial has been completed, he
said, and it features a semicircular
wall built into a hill on land donated
by the state.
McGrath, who served in Vietnam
from July of 1967 to July of 1968,
said that he brought the wall to
Evergreen to bring about greater
understanding about the effects of
the war. "Some veterans feel that
Evergreen is still a hotbed of 1960s
political reactionary thought," he
said. "Many of us veterans experienced a great deal of animosity
toward us as ind ividlJdls. I think
those attitudes have changed, people are still anti-war and antimilitary, but I don't think they're

Students losing control of
Evergreen's future growth

commented, "It's a very important,
vital process that is trying to happen,
and I'd like for people to understand
it. And once they got involved,
they'd understand how exciting, the
process is."
Students can get involved in the
process by reading the drafts
available at the library circulation
desk and at the Information Center
in the CAB, and by attending the

meetings.
The Strategic Planning Council
meets every Thursday from 4 to 7
p,m. in the board room on the third
floor of the library building. The Environmental subcommittee meets
Wednesdays at 10:30 a.m. in LIB
3121. The Values and Aspirations
subcommittee meets every Wednesday at 10:30 a.m. in LIB 4004.
All meetings are open and
students are encouraged to attend ,

Legislature provides funds to
increase full-time enrollment
Continued from page I.
When asked, he adds that part of
the credibility is due to the selfexamination the college is going
through in it s Strategic Planning.
Faculty member Rudy Martin
agreed, "I think they were going to
give us some money anyway. Meaning by that, that with all this talk
about unit cost and so forth, I think
the Legislature was disposed to help
us grow . I think the strategic plan
al so helped," he says.
The specifics of how the money
will be spent has not been decided,
but a rough outline of the decisionmaking process follows: After input
from the Agenda Comittee, dean s
and academic staff, a proposal will
be made to President Olander, then
the Board of Trustees will decide
where the money is spent. According
to Vice President and Provost
Patrick Hill, Gail Martin, vice president for student affairs , is working
on involving students in the decision-

San Francisco State
University

making process.
The appropriations act requires
that the $523,000 be used on the instruction program. This includes
research assi stance, equipment,
t ra vel money, secretarial support,
supplies and the hiring of new
faculty .
The money cannot be spent on t r.e
library, the buildings or administrat ion , says Daray. And roughly onehalf of the money, $260,000, must
be spent by June 30, 1986.
Assistant Director for the
Washington State Institute for
Public Policy, Tom Sykes , says the
Institute received $20,000 for an input/ output study of the Washington
State economy, which is currently
underway at the University of
Washington. Another $20,000 will
go to conduct a study of social,
economic and demographic trends
and t heir policy implications for the
state of Washington , with activities
at Evergreen and other institutions.

anti-individual. "
The display at Evergreen will kick
off an ongoing student discussion
group about Vietnam on campus.
Dr. Ben Colodzin, an Evergreen
alumnus who holds a doctorate in
psychology, will be on hand during
the display to answer questions
about the effects of the war.

McGrath said that the veterans
who were on hand during the'
display, were here to help students
better understand the war. "I defy
you to find a vet who likes war.
Those of us who have been in combat feel an obligation to this country to inform those who could be
fighting the next war what they'll be

facing."
The effects of the war are far
greater than most people realize,
McGrath said. "There were 58,000
Americans killed in Vietnam, and to
the best of our knowledge there have
been between 70,000 and 75,000
veterans who have committed
suicide since the war."

Strategic Planning Council
proc~ss and schedule defined
by Bob Baumgartner
A year ago President Olander announced the college would develop
a new strategic plan. Vice President
and Provost Patrick Hill was assigned the task of developing a process
to obtain that plan , As chairperson
of the Strategic Planning Council,
Hill organized the planning council
into two subcommittees: The Environmental and the Values and
Aspirations subcommittees.

The Environmental subcommittee
has the job of describing trends in
the external environment that will
affect the college. Their draft looks
into the political environment,
economic factors, demographic
trends,
educational
trends,
Evergreen's image and the values
and aspirations of Washington state
residents.
The Values and Aspirations subcommittee is working to identify the
animating values of the college, to
describe how these {alues are shown
in policies and practices of the college, and to articulate how people
view where Evergreen is in its pursuit of these values. Some values
debated in a consultation session on

April 3 were the merit of evaluations, the idea of community, and
the question of a broad education
versus a specific, skill-oriented
education .

~This second draft

will begin to
show ... what
direction the college should
pursue. '
The two subcommittees are currently revising their documents, adding points missed, emphasizing
some aspects and de-emphasizing
others according to issues raised in
the consultation period. Written
comments on the drafts were accepted until April 9. By April 23 the
second drafts of the subcommittee's
reports will be released, beginning
'another round of discussions.

Rudy Martin, chairperson of the
Evaluations and Aspirations subcommittee, says that this second
draft wil begin to show recommendations as to what direction the college should pursue.
Carolyn Dobbs, chairperson of
the Environmental subcommittee,
stops short of saying the word
"recommendations." She says the
Environmental subcommittee will
"highlight" the seven to nine most
important issues and features in the

Deficit surprises S&A Board
by Paul Tyler
Just before spring break the S&A
board received information that it
was spending more in S&A fees this
year than it was collecting. The
overspending is due largely to an accounting error made by last year's
Board when it lost some of its
technical accounting support . That
Board assumed it could count about
$28,000 in money that was not spent
the previou s year in the total
available for thi s year's allocations.
However, the money had already
been counted once in the budget process. Another contributing factor to
th e imbalance is an oversight in accounting for the depreciation costs
of the CAB building.

April 2 meeting that the overspending could be as much as $64,000.
This doesn't constitute a financial
disaster because the Board started
the year with an $82,000 cash
surplus. However, if the current accounting and spending practices are
continued the S&A Board will start
running in the red next year.
The Board and the accounting
staff are exploring options for putting the S&A fund balance back on
a sound rooting. Whether or not this
will entail program cuts ror S&A activities and how dcep those cuts may
be are question s the Board will be
addressing in weeks to come .

"It's useless to speculate whether
there will be any program changes
at this time," said Board member
Clay Zollars. "The Administration
is going to submit a proposal for
resolution of the problem. As a
member of the Board, I'll be submitting an alternative.
'''Once everyone has their cards on
the table then we can take the action
that will best serve the students, "
Zollars concluded.
Anyone interested in a more
detailed description of the situation
and its implications can find more
information in the S&A minutes of
April 2, in CAB 305.

Fast-attack sub provokes hostility and debate
by Todd D. Anderson
Disagreements over military
weapons don't occur just in the halls
of Congress or around missle silos.
The city of Olympia got a taste of
the conflict on the March 14-19 stay
of the nuclear submarine Olympia.
Two events, the arrival of the sub
on March ·14 and a city council
meeting four days later, brought out
some very different opinions on the
submarine's presence in the city.
Several hundred welcomers and
mourners were on hand to mark the
docking
of
the
360-foot
fast-attack submarine at the Port of
Olympia. The submarine is nuclear
powered, designed to carry cruise
missiles and torpedoes, and an integral part of a U.S. first-strike
'cenerio.
At first it looked like it was going
to be a gala affair with local officials, the sub's commander, and
members of veterans groups on stage
at the dock, and the Capital High
School band on hand to play music.
Some of the welcoming crowd
displayed signs like "Pro-Nuke" and
"GO-Defense" which appeared to
equate patriotism with nuclear
weapons.
However, shortly after the
welcoming ceremony began at 5:30
p.m., 250-300 mourners, mostly
Evergreen students dressed in black,
arrived in a 1960s-style protest
march, and the atmosphere changed quickly.
The protesters walked into the
center of the crowd chanting phrases
like, "Take back the death ship,"
and, "Take the toys away from the
boys."
The chanting drowned out the
speakers and this brought a reaction
from the welcomers. Marvin Coker,
a leader of one of the veterans
groups, mounted the stage in an at-

tempt to quiet the demonstrators.
He was greeted by catcalls.
"I'm hard of hearing and they
were interfering with my right to
hear the speakers," Coker said after
stepping down from the stage.
Moments later, mourner Arthur
West, decked out in death garb,
filtere~ through the pro-nuke crowd
and approached the platform.
"Would you fight for your country?" inquired a veteran . "I'd be in
the Army if I _thought it was a just

phOIO by Jennifer BUllke

cause," West replied. The conversation quickly turned derisive.
The Capital High band cranked
up and the welcoming stereo system
blared in an attempt to drown out
the chanting mourners. Its effect was
only temporary as the chanting
renewed once the speakers started
again . County Commissioner Les
Eldridge and State Senator Mike
Kreidler both made remarks, which
were virtually inaudible, welcoming
Olympia's first nuclear submarine,

How many times have you wished you knew more about a particular
instructor before you'd committed
yourself to a program or course?
Right now you may be discovering
the consequences of your decision.
Whether you feel ~ood about your
choice of instructor or not, you may
be interested in a process that would
give you more information before
making a choice next time.
Beginning the fifth week of this
quarter, questionnaires will be
available which will allow students
to SHare with each other the insights
gained while working with their
respective instructors . Its purpose
will be to encourage students to
make informed choices about the
faculty they would like to work with.
It's in view of these sorts of problems that a student-run evaluation
process is being started.

about the other demonstrated how
far apart they were. The wide
disparity of views could be summed
up in the remarks of a high school
student, upon seeing a short-haried
demonstrator dressed in preppy attire, "Gee, he looks normaL"
Following the termination of
speeches, the pro-nuke crowd quickly dissappeared, while demonstrators
came on to the dock to view the large
whale-shaped weapon . Anti-nukcrs
were in no hurry to leave, but police
eventually evicted them from the
dock. Some clasped hands and sang
"Give Peace a Chance" John
Lennon-style as they exited the port.
The council meeting held four
days later was conducted in a more
business-like atmosphere, but there
was no more unanimity on the issue.
Speakers and council members expressed vary ing degrees of alarm or
enthusiasm for the city's namesake
submarine.
There was one element that wasn '(
stressed during the dockside protest
that came up at the city council
meeting: money. The Chamber of
Commerce and a local hotel
manager stated the submarine's stay
was good for their businesses: a
theme frequently stressed by pro·
ponents of military spending.

it was clear that emotions were running high . Coker said, "There are

"Some of us would like to go out

said.

Dear CPJ,
I am appalled at the behavior of
Evergreen students at the reception
for the USS Olympia. Those protesting were rude enough to boo,
hiss, and hoot over the speeches of
those on the podium, with a complete lack of respect and responsibility . In a time when funding for the
college is at record lows, behavior
like this can only expedite the financial ruin of Evergreen through making waves with the legislature.
If you wish to exercise your rights
to protest, that's fine. If I wish to
exercise my right to protest, I am
called a fascist or a warmonger. I
think you people are a bunch of
assholes.
I would like to write much more,

WashPIRG
still a campus
fixture

The March 13, 1986 story "Over 200 marchers take to Olympia streets
in protest against rape and domestic violence" falsely stated that women
were attacked in a similar march last year. There was no similar march last
year; however, in a march several years ago, women were verbally abused.
Also, Bonnie Weiss did not kill her husband; he was injured in the
shooting. She pleaded guilty to first degree assault.
The Cooper Point Journal staff regrets the error.

To the Evergreen Community:
I am writing in regard to the student
body referendum
on
WashPIRG which was held last
quarter. As you know, the contract
between TESC and WashPIRG requires that student support of the

be reaffirmed every two years. For

students participating in the referendum to vote in support of
WashPIRG.
I am happy to announce the
results of the referendum. We had
a great turnout of voters, 18 percent
of the students on this campus. Of
those who voted, 95 percent cast
their votes in support of WashPIRG.
Because of the low numbers of
people who generally turn out for a
vote, WashPIRG decided to hold a

numbers of students who support
the organization, even if they didn't
come out to vote. In only four days,
nearly 1200 signatures were
collected.

Evergreen's
external forces
neglected
Dear EditoI,
I attended a hearing on the
Strategic Planning committee's
preliminary draft reports on April 3.

THE COOPER POINT JOURNAL

page 5

About thirty students were in attendance. From the tone of the questions directed to the committee
members I concluded that most of
the students, like myself, had not
had time to read or think about both
reports. This was especially true of
the Environmental Subcommittee
report which is fifty-six pages long.
Most of the questions and comments could easHy be categorized as
being in the area of values and
aspirations." I believe that the
strategic planning process is an important exercise and one that
students should participate in. But
the process is not strictly one of
determining what our personal
preferences may be and then lobby.ing for them.
Provost Hill made the point
several times that there are external
forces affecting Evergreen to which
we will have to respond, like it or
not. I hope that many of my fellow
students will take the time to become
more closely acquainted with the
work of both the subcommittees and
add their informed input to the
debate about the future of
Evergreen.

Little time remains before the J uIy 7 deadline facing 15-20,000 traditional Dineh (Navajo) Indians. On
this date U.S. Army troops are expected to forcibly remove these people from their ancestral homelands.
Here they remain a truly selfsufficient client society. Cluster
housing in the desert, track homes
in hostile, racist border towns are a
way of life that can only mean death.
Many of the people do not speak
English and are unfamiliar with consumer based survival.
The resistance against this form of
slow motion genocide is being led by
the Dineh Grandmothers who are
the guardians of their matriarchal
culture. The Hopi and Dineh Elders
stand united in defense of Mother
Earth and the future generations. it
is the tribal councils of both tribes
that are involved in conflict over the
development of the immense
resources beneath the land's surface.
The spiritual teachings of Dineh and
Hopi people calls for the protection
of this sacred land from exploitation
and development. The coal,
uranium, and oil that the multinationals are hungry for must remain in. the ground. It is essentially
a struggle between a spiritual, land-

based indigenous people and the
same corporations involved in
destruction in South Africa and Central America.
The Dineh and Hopi Elders have
set a precedent by putting out a
global plea for help. People of all
races have been invited to establish
a presence on the endangered land.
It is cruciaJ that it be known that this
is a spiritual, non-violent stand.
Both newspaper articles and the
documentary, "Trouble. on Big
Mountain," convey that the people
resisting relocation and those coming to help are advocating the use of
violence! Every means available
must be utilized to expose the truth.
The forces that want the Dineh gone
will continue to discredit the quality of their actions of opposition.
Pauline Whitesinger, the Grandmother who initiated the resistance
in 1977, is asking for support for
ceremonies which will keep the evil
away. They must be known. The
resources that once were available to
carry out these ceremonies no longer
are easily obtainable. The spirituaJity
indigenous to this land has not been
given its due respect by the invaders
and their descendents. We can
change this now.

We, who have been able to enjoy
religious freedom, are in a position
to demand that the same right be
given to this country's original inhabitants! It is the least we can give
to those who for so long preserved
what we now consider our
homeland ; a land now polluted,
scarred, wracked with violence,
sickness, hopelessness and lack of
any vision beyond the hypnotic draw
of TV . We must take responsibility
l\.s a race and a nation in supporting
the rights of Indian people to main tain their way of life and religion. If
time is taken to look closely enough,
we will find much essential
knowledge for the survival of
humanity.
Educate yourself and all those you
know. The stand of the Hopi and
Dineh people of Big Mountain and
the Joint Use Area is a spiritual,
nonviolent one. Go to the land and
meet the people . Hear their voices.
Demand that the press do the same.
Generate support
for
the
ceremonies. If Public Law 93-531,
calling for relocation, is not repealed by July 7, physical danger will be
imminent unless the ceremonies can
occur. We can do no less than support this struggle for all of life. It is
our sacred duty as dwellers on
Mother Earth.

Excessive zeal
causes blizzard
of tickets
Dear Editor,
The second day into spr ing
quarter found 31 of us with tickets
in the early morning on our vehicles
in parking lot F. An overly zealous
parking lot attendant (a student
herself) tagged us and we feel this is
unfair to we resident students who
are entitled to the parking privilege
as residents of Housing. The blue
sticker is merely a symbol of that
privilege.
[ personally did a survey of the lot
when I discovered the ticket on my
windshield . How many had already
removed the tickets I do not know ,
but 28 other vehicles had outdated
winter quarter parking permits.
Twelve had neither parking permits
for Housing, nor daily parking
permits.
Granted "we have time" to do
this in advance, but for myself I was
not on campus during spring break;
many students did not return until
Sunday. Monday is line-ups for
registration as well as tuition and
Housing payments. I personally
prepared for a welcome party for my
classmates in "Re-entry to Education" Monday evening. I have many
other personal commitments. To
make a long story short, I did not
think of the parking permit Monday
at all!
Come on powers-that-be, give a
break to students who have the right
to park their vehicles as Housing
residents . Give us at least a week to
catch up on always very busy
quarterly starts. The students have
enough expenses already. "Yo u"
want more???

Eight-year-old
mentality
dictates fate
Editor:
Especially
regarding
our
maneuvers off Libya, aside from all
obvious rationalizations, must we
continue to shape the future according to the mentality of 8-year-old
boys?
The psychology of an armaments
posture, now being revealed, is in the
natural tendency to use weapons one
has developed .
Peace is life. Its promise (Christ,
Muhammed, Buddha) requires a certain attention, an expansion of mind
and heart beyond the immediate,
"mine" to a loving sense of OneWorld minded ness and awareness of
real survival, life and Light for all.
We have at Easter not only our
historical example in Jesus' dying , so
that death is overcome, but contemporary examples as well in M.L.
King, Mother Teresa, Corazon
("Heart ") Aquino.
Come on! Are we going to do this
over and over again? Arc we rpall y
a society hypnotized by hyperactivity and materialism -- fast cars,
TV, weaponry, violent computer
games, fast foods -- self-indulgent ,
self-righteous and all the rest of it?
I don't think so.
By taking a little care, we can each
contri bute to avoiding and correcting pollution of the body and mind
of our universe. Life cannot be won
by warring with the ways of nature
and other men and women. Perfection begins within each living being,
it seems. Let's try. I like living .

Corrections:
~Take Back the Night March'
. The March 13, 1986 story "Over 200 marchers take to Olympia streets
in protest against rape and domestic violence" falsely stated that women
were attacked in a similar march last year. There was no similar march last
year; however, in a march several years ago, women were verbally abused.
Also, Bonnie Weiss did not kill her husband; he was injured in the
shooting . She pleaded guilty to first degree assault.
T he Cooper Point Journal staff regrets the error.

Students hoot
and hiss at
sub speakers
Dear CPJ,
I am appalled at the behavior of
Evergreen students at the reception
for the USS Olympia. Those protesting were rude enough to boo,
hiss, and hoot over the speeches of
those on the podium, with a complete lack of respect and responsibility. In a time when funding for the
college is at record lows, behavior
like this can only expedite the financial ruin of Evergreen thro ugh making waves with the legislature.
I f you wish to exercise your rights
to protest, that's fine. If I wish to
exercise my right to protest, I am
called a fascist or a warmonger. I
think you people are a bunch of
assholes.
I would like to write much more,
but it wouldn't make any of us
happy.
Extremely pissed,
Evergreen Student

WashPIRG
still a campus
fixture
To the Evergreen Community:
I am writing in regard to the student body
referendum on
WashPIRG which was held last
quarter. As you know, the contract
between TESC and WashPIRG requires that student support of the
organization and its funding system
be reaffirmed every two years. For
continuation of the TESC chapter it

was necessary. for a majority of
students participating in the referendum to vote in support of
WashPIRG.
I am happy to announce the
results of the referendum. We had
a great turnout of voters, 18 percent
of the students on this campus . Of
those who voted, 95 percent cast
their votes in support of WashPIRG.
Because of the low numbers of
people who generally turn out for a
vote, WashPIRG decided to hold a
petition d rive prior to the referendu m. This was to show the large
numbers of st udents who support
the organization, even if they didn't
come out to vote. In only four days,
near ly 1200 signatures were
coll ected.
I want to thank everyone who
helped to make the petition drive
and the referendum successful. A
warm thanks to the petit ioners, the
pollsters, and to everyone who signed the petition and exercised their
right to vote. A special thanks is due
to everyone who was patient with the
petitioners, even though you were
asked four times daily if you had
signed the petition.
For anyone wishing more information or wanting to get involved,
contact Eva at x6059 or Loren at

Evergreen's
external forces
neglected
Dear EditoI,
I attended a hearing on the
Strategic Planning committee 's
preliminary draft reports on April 3.

Opinion:

About thirty students were in attendance. From the tone of the questions directed to the committee
members I concluded that most of
the students, like myself, had not
had time to read or think about both
reports . This was especially true of
the Environmental Subcommittee
report which is fifty-six pages long :
Most of the questions and comments could easily be categorized as
being in the area of values and
asp irations. I believe that the
strategic planning process is an important exercise and one that
students should participate in. But
the process is not strictly one of
determin ing wha t our personal
preferences may be and t hen lobbying for them.
Provost Hill made the point
several times that there are external
forces affecting Evergreen to which
we will have to respond, like it or
not. I hope that many of my fellow
students will take the time to become
more closely acquainted with the
work of both the subcommittees and
add their informed input to the
debate about the future of
Evergreen .

ARMY. BE AI LYOU (A.N BE.

Little time remains before the July 7 deadline facing 15-20,000 traditional Dineh (Navajo) Indians. On
this date U.S. Army troops are expected to forcibly remove these people from their ancestral homelands .
Here they remain a truly selfsufficient client society. Cluster
housing in the desert, track homes
in hostile, racist border towns are a
way of life that can only mean death.
Many of the people do not speak
English and are unfamiliar with consumer based survival.
The resistance against this Form of
slow motion genocide is being led by
the Dineh Grandmothers who are
the guardians of their matriarchal
culture. The Hopi and Dineh Elders
stand united in defense of Mother
Earth and the future generations. it
is the tribal councils of both tribes
that are involved in conflict over the
development of the Immense
resources beneath the land's surface.
The spiritual teachings of Dineh and
Hopi people calls for the protection
of this sacred land from exploitation
and development. The coal,
uranium, and oil that the multinationals are hungry for must remain in the ground. It is essentia,lIy
a struggle between a spiritual, land-

based indigenous people and the
same corporations involved in
destruction in South Africa and Central America .
The Dineh and Hopi Elders have
set a precedent by putting out a
global plea for help. People of all
races have been invited to establish
a presence on the endangered land.
It is crucial that it be known that this
is a spiritual, non-violent stand .
Both newspaper articles and the
documentary, "Trouble on Big
Mountain," convey that the people
resisting relocation and those coming to help are advocating the use of
violence! Every means available
must be utilized to expose the truth.
The forces that want the Dineh gone
will continue to discredit the quality of their actions of opposition.
Pauline Whitesinger, the Grandmother who initiated the resistance
in 1977, is asking for support for
ceremonies which will keep the evil
away. They must be known. The
resources that once were available to
carry out these ceremonies no longer
are easily obtainable. The spirituality
indigenous to this land has not been
given its due respect by the invaders
and their descendents . We can
change this now.

Arm s

We, who have been able to enjoy
religious freedom, are in a position
to demand that the same right be
given to this country's original inhabitants! It is the least we can give
to those who for so long preserved
what we now consider our
homeland; a land now polluted,
scarred, wracked with violence,
sickness, hopelessness and lack of
any vision beyond the hypnotic draw
of TV. We must take responsibility
as a race and a nation in supporting
the rights of I ndian people to maintain their way of life and religion. If
time is taken to look closely enough,
we will find much essential
knowledge for the survival of
humanity.
Educate yourselF and all those you
know. The stand of the Hopi and
Dineh people of Big Mountain and
the Joint Use Area is a spiritual,
nonviolent one. Go to the land and
meet the people. Hear their voices.
Demand that the press do the same.
Generate
support
for
the
ceremonies. I f Public Law 93-531,
calling for relocation, is not repealed by July 7, physical danger will be
imminent unless the ceremonies can
occur. We can do no less than support this struggle for all of life. It is
our sacred duty as dwellers on
Mother Earth.

Excessive zeal
causes blizzard
of tickets
Dea r Editor,
The second day into spring
quarter found 31 of us with tickets
in the early morning on our vehicles
in parking lot F. An overly zea lous
parking lot attendant (a student
herself) tagged us and we feel this is
unfair to we resident st udents who
are entitled to the parking pr ivilege
as residents of Housing. The blue
sticker is merely a symbol of that
privi lege.
I personally did a survey of the lot
when I discovered the ticket on my
windshield. How many had already
removed the tickets I do not know,
but 28 other vehicles had outdated
winter quarter parking permits.
Twelve had neither parking permits
for Housing, nor daily parking
permits.
Granted "we have time" to do
this in advance, but for myself I was
not on campus during spring break;
many students did not return until
Sunday. Monday is line-ups for
registration as well as tuition and
Housing payments . I personally
prepared for a welcome party for my
classmates in .. Re-entry to Education" Monday evening. I have many
other personal commitments. To
make a long story short, I did not
think of the parking permit Monday
at all!
Come on powers-that-be, give a
break to students who have the right
to park their vehicles as Housing
residents. Give us at least a week to
catch up on always very busy
quarterly starts. The students have
enough expenses already. "You"
want more???

Help needed

Dear Folks:
Information For Action handed
out about 2400 "Student Surveys"
in winter quarter, and have gotten
back 973 (surveys from T'acoma and
Vancouver are on the way). That's
about a 45 percent return rate, and
about a third of all the students.
Now that the forms are in, we have

Eight-year-old
mentality
dictates fate
Editor:
Especially
regarding
our
maneuvers off Libya, aside from all
obvious rationalizations, must we
continue to shape the future according to the mentality of 8-year-old
boys?
The psychology of an armaments
posture, now being revealed, is in the
natural tendency to 'use weapons one
has developed .
Peace is life. Its promise (Christ,
Muhammed, Buddha) requires a certain attention, an expansion of mind
and heart beyond the immediate,
"mine" to a loving sense of OneWorld mindedness and awareness of
real survival, life and Light for all.
We have at Easter not only our
historical example in Jesus' dying, so
that death is overcome, but contemporary examples as well in M. L.
King, Mother Teresa, Corazon
("Heart") Aquino.
Come on! Are we going to do this
over and over again? Are we rpally
a society hypnotized by hyperactivity and materialism -- fast cars,
TV, weaponry, violent computer
games, fast foods -- sel f-indulgent,
self-r ighteous and all the rest of it?
I don't think so .
By taking a little care, we can each
contribute to avoiding and correcting pollution of the body and mind
of our universe. Life cannot be won
by warring with the ways of nature
and other men and women. Perfection begins within each living being,
it seems. Let's try. I like living.

Aurand defines CPE
Interview '
by Stephan Killen
The Council for Post Secondary
Education (CPE) mandates that all
programs of instruction in the four
year institutions of higher education
will be reviewed on an agreed upon
cycle. Evergreen's Expressive Arts
area is in the process of undergoing
such a review; the last review was
completed in 1979.
The CPE gu idelines for this
review state that its purpose is: To

maintain and enhance the quality of
instruction, research, and public ser·
vice conducted at state colleges and
universities; To respond to existing
and emerging social, cultural, scien·
tific, and economic needs; To utilize
the state's and the institution's
resources effectively and efficiently.

Ruth LaNore displays charcaaltitled, "luko Sankai One and Two. "

Student displays first
place drawing
by Maggie Murphy
Evergreen student Ruth LaNore
recently ca ptured first pla ce in a
Seatlle art competition titled, " A
Celebration of Women Arti sts."
Frame It On Broadway, a womanowned fr a me shop and gallery,
sponsored the competition to help
celebrate Intern ationa l Wo men 's
Da y March 15 .
LaNore' s entries were large cha r·
coal drawings o n cotton rag paper.
She described the images as abstrat
and figurative and said, "One of the
drawings look s like a woman who is
stepping out onto the town, and yet
is still surrounded by a mysteriou s
environment. " Previously, LaNorc
co ncentrated on three dimensional
images finding drawing to be morc
of an intellectual struggle .
Out of 60 entries, LaNore observ·
ed that most of the drawings tended
to be in pastel colors. She said,
"Because I used charcoal, mine
stuck out like a sore thumb; they
were really different." The two

drawings. titled " Juko Sankai One
and Two." were inspired by a draw ·
ing of dancers LaNore had found .
She said an advisor told her that
they reminded him of Juko Sankai ,
the Japanese dance troupe , the sanle
dance troupe that experienced the
fatal accident of one of its dancers
during a performance last year in
Seattle' s Pioneer Square. Strangely
enough, LaNore later discovered
that the drawing that ha d originally
inspired her was, in fact, a drawing
of that same dance troupe .
When she heard she had received
first place, LaNore exclaimed, "This
is neat! This is neat!"
Besides the first place honor,
LaNore will receive $50 worth of
framing from Frame It On
Broadway.
LaNore encouraged students to
"make time to do the work . "
"What would help artists most is
sharing scholarship and competition
information," she said. "This is why
the Expressive Art s Network is so
important. "

Essentially what the CPE is con·
cerned with is whether our accrediation is still merited .
In typical Evergreen fashion, a
much more thorough review has
been undertaken than the CPE calls
for. The 1977 CPE curriculum
Review Guidelines were set forth to
complete extensive reviews of
academic areas. These guidelines call
for philosophic positions (A succinct

statement describing the philosophy,
content and objectives of the special·
tyarea), and asks such questions as:
Is the teaching appropriate? Are
students prepared? IYhere do
students go and how well do they do
there? What are the program's glar·
ing shortcomings?
To carry out this review the
guidelines call for a self·evaluation
by the faculty not associated with the
area, and an external review con·
ducted by a group outside the
college.
The self·evaluation (by faculty
members in the area) was recently
completed. Expressive Arts Facult y
spent numerous hours during the
past months completing their part of
the review. Faculty member Susan
Aurand was the convener for the ex·
tensive review.
When Susan gave Dean John
Perkins a rough draft of the review
several weeks ago , she was asked to
change the tone. When I question·
ed Perkins on the matter, he said
that there was a certain amount of
"dean bashing" in the report. This
was in response to the recent cuts
which the Expressive Arts area has
felt. Perkins said that such com·
plaints were not appropriate to the
CPE review; they were not asked for
and are more appropriately kept
within the college.
When the two other reviews (in·
house and external) are complete,
the package wilt go to Provost
Patrick HilI, who will summarize the

findings of all three groups in a short curriculum planning time, to the ef·
letter. This letter will then be sent on feet that, since we didn't have

ing how I viewed American values."
Deschner concluded that "trust and
respect" were important American
values, but he didn't think these to
be the average American experience.
Lynnette Spear, a poet in her third
quarter at Evergreen after transferring from Highline Community College, stated, "The ability to change
and establish our own value systems
is an important American value."
Spear said, "No two value systems
are alike but they may share commonalities. The problem that can
arise with separate value systems is
that we are told to 'be ourselves' so
many times that we become
alienated from who we are."
Spear's poetry focused on family
issues and particularly the
parent/child relationship. It was
here she expressed a specific concern
about how value systems are formed. "I was at the airport recently and
a woman was aggressively spanking
her child. This woman, at the top of
her voice, was scolding the child.
What struck me most was not only
that this child was being abused, but
was being publicly humiliated as
well."
"As we grow into adults," Spear
speculated, "then we want to justify
our parents' actions and we do this
by repeating their actions, and an
abusive cycle is perpetuated."
American values wield the doubleedged sword. Joan Davidge, a
senior, produced drawings and paintings in Hard Country. Davidge
said, "My work was looking into the
condition of brutality and the
similarity between how we treat each
other and our environment."
I asked Davidge if she had ever
been personally brutalized. "My experiences with that are mostly
through observation; I am a concerned environmentalist. In America

we have a double standard that while
we set up national parks and
monuments, we are at the same time
actin'g out destruction of the land ."
The readings in the program,
Davidge felt, addressed the human
scenes of brutality. In discussing
Carlos Bulason's autobiography,
"America Is In the Heart," she commented, "Carlos came to America
from the Phillipines because of
American ideals, and his life in
America was the antithesis of those
same ideals." Davidge found that it
is the people of color, the
economically under-privileged, and
many single mothers, or in general,
the underclasses of our society that
strive for freedom, justice and the
pursuit of happiness and keep these
ideals alive . "In America the
privileged, namely white males and
the wealthy are those who reap what
the underclasses fight for."
Finally Davidge noted that individuality was an important and
recurring issue in studying American
values. She added, "Individuality is
prized in America, but because it is
accompanied with our economic
system, which promotes competition, it does not encourage cooperation on the larger scale. Individuals
often end up working against each
other. If our individual values cause
harm to another, is this acceptable?"
It seems "Hard Country" took a
hard look at the American Dream.
Individuality, brutality and abuse
were just a few issues reflected in the
program's findings. Anne Murphy,
a student who had viewed the exhibition, said, "Each student had strong
personal images; the show reflected
the gestalt of their American experiences." If this is true, the 20
students of "Hard Country" are one
step closer to understanding this
hard country.

In today's world you can get
almost anything if you're clever
enough and have some money.
Missile launchers, fake college
degrees, elected 0 ffice and even
world records are all up for grabs to
the rich and the sly . But it's embarassing if you slip up. Ali Laidun,
a Franco-Amencan Arab and
former Evergreen EF student should
know. He has apparently been on a
mission to become the world junior
record holder in the 800 meters for
some time now.
While studying as an EF student
here during the fall, the enigmatic
Laidun claimed to have run an 800
meter junior world record in Europe
over the summer. Last October he
appeared elated that the lAAF (the
International Amateur Athletic
Federation) had just declared his
race official. This led to an article
in the CPl, "EF Student Set World
Record in Zurich Race." Indeed
Laidun .was the talk of the town -a world class athlete here at
Evergreen!
. A February 15 article in the London Times, "Just No Record"

reported that Laidun submitted a
certificate to the French Athletics
Board showing that he ran the 800
meters in I :44.97 to set a world
junior record at a race in Oregon last
October. A close look by the French
revealed the certi ficate was a
forgery. The Times reported that it
had been skillfully done but a couple of minor linguistic errors let him
down.
The EF program apparently never
prepared Laidun for successful
document forgery. He told the
French that he broke the record
while he was here, and he told us
that he broke the record while he was
over in Europe.

While at Evergreen Laidun failed
to keep his story consistent; in an ef-

fort to clarify the facts, none were
found. Track and Field News said
his name didn't appear in the Junior
top 300 list. Nike, whom Laidun
claimed was his sponsor, had never
heard of him. The 1984 Olympics
saw no appearance of the legendary
Ali Laidun contrary to his own
story
When the discrepancies came to
light, Laidun apparently left
Evergreen for good. But a week
later, in mid November, he unexpectedly returned with a new stereo

"It looked like a nice new stereo

'Argentina is not all pampas and gauchos'
by Margaret Livingston

Argentina, a country rich in
natural resources and often referred
to as the Europe of Latin America,
is still searching for a national
cultural identity according to Romeo
Cesar. Cesar, a faculty member in
philosophy at the National University of Patagonia in Southern Argentina and a Fulbright Scholar
teaching at Evergreen, was the guest
speaker at the Piece of My Mind
series held Wednesday, April 2, at
the First United Methodist Church
in Olympia.
Cesar teaches in the "Spanish

Forms of Life and Art" and
"Human Development" programs
at TESC. "This year teaching at
Evergreen has been one of the best
experiences of my teaching career.
Everyone in the Olympia and
Evergreen community has been
hospitable and caring," Cesar said .
During his talk Cesar spoke of the
geographical diversity, the European
traits, and the poverty that exists in
Argentina even though this country
has the resources and education to
be a highly developed country.
"Argentina is not all pampas and
gauchos," Cesar said , noting the
pampas make up about 20 percent

of the country. He said Argentina
also has the Andes mountains, subtropical jungles, the Strait of
Magellan, and Patagonia, a semiarid territory 1,300 miles long in the
southeast part of the country.
When Argentina became independent from Spain there was a reaction
to the Spanish influence with a
strong French and German influence
being felt.
"It is important in understanding
Argentina to know that in the last
century there has been a massive immigration from Italy," Cesar said.
"Over 40 percent of the population has Italian blood. There are
many other ethnic groups that have

immigrated to Argentina in the last
century with the exception of
African. There are no African people in Argentina," he added .
Argentina is not a rich and
developed industrial society, he said,
although there are steel and auto factories. "The people have been said
to believe more in magic than in
reason." He said they are resistant
to sophisticated technology and a
society favoring schedules, promptness, and is symbolized by the
wristwatch. Cesar said, .. Punctuality
is not a virtue in our country. We are
involved with people and work at the
completion of a task rather than the
task itself."

He said Argentines are reluctant
to plan; they love to improvise.
According to Cesar, the Argentine
people live each day as the only one.
They don't care, culturally speaking,
about money or accumulating it.
"Money is to spend quickly," he
said, "and inflation has accentuated
this trait. We don't value money as
an ultimate goal."
Cesar fieleled questions from the
audience about the political climate
of Argentina. He laughed, saying he'
had hoped to avoid the subject, but
said, "So far there have been no
polilical solutions that fit all of the
cultural values of the country ."

Ali' Laidun, a legend in his own mind

James Alan Ferguson will speak on
"Changing Views of Masculinity. "

"Changing Views of Masculinity
and World Peace" will be the subject of a dynamic talk by martial artist /former professional boxer
James Alan Ferguson at 4 p.m. on
Thursday, April 10 in CAB 108 at
the Evergreen State College.
Ferguson, who has spoken across
the country and is preparing for an
international tour, will discuss the
importance of males getting in touch
with their spirituality, and his own
"rough" road to self-awareness. A
6 p.m. potluck follows Ferguson's
lecture. The event, which is collectively sponsored by Evergreen 's
Women's Center and seven other
student and activities organizations,
is free and open to all TESC
students, and $2 for all nonstudents.
Some who have heard Ferguson
lecture say he is one of the most in-

tionally ranked amateur boxer, martial artist/instructor, bodyguard,
private and criminal investigator,
police chief, amateur boxing coach,
free-lance writer, upward bound
coordinator, counselor with DSHS,
authority on comparative religions,
educator, sensory deprivation
specialist, poet, and spiritual
teacher.
His colorful past makes him uniquely qualified to speak on the
topic(s) of gender roles and the tragic
glorification of violence in society.
His lecture will concentrate on
practical information about developing a balanced identity, realizing the
masculinity-femininity in us all, and
on achieving a thorough understanding of the overt or covert influences
and pressures that condition, desensitize, and threaten the quality of
life. Students are encouraged to attend this "one time only" lecture for
a truly enlightening experience.

by Dennis Held
Coming back to Evergreen, for
the first time ever, the Mt Sl. Helens
Anniversary Team Gel and
Evergreen State College Boomerang
Championships, to be held Sunday,
May 18 on the Evergreen soccer
pitch .
Teams from Seattle and Portland
wiu challenge Evergreen's Team Gel,
according to event organizer and
Evergreen student Mike Girvin.
Aside from the competition, Gir-

vin says the meet is designed to be
a day for novices to be introduced
to the boomerang. "I'll have booms
available for people to tryout, and
you can learn the basics of how to
throw in a few minutes," he said.
"There will be competition at all
levels, beginners as well as some of
the best boom throwers in the country," he said.
Girvin has reserved the lower soccer fields for May 4 and May I! for '
interested boom-tossers.

The men's tennis team received a
rude awakening upon returning
from spring break when they ventured to Green River Community
College Wednesday, April 2. The
Green River team, one of the top
community college teams in the
state, took it to the Geoducks by a
score of 8-1.
Jim Wood, 40, the senior member
of the Geoducks, played the number

five spot and kept alive his streak of
undefeated single matches. Geoduck
Ben Chotzen, playing number one
singles, played a strong match but
lost 7-5 ".7-5.
The rllt!n's team didn't take long
to recover as they defeated Skagit
Valley Community College last Friday, 3-1 . Due to rain, the teams
played an abbreviated match consisting of four doubles events. The
one loss was due to a forfeit.

Theater helps people examine and
absorb human experience by taking
them beneath the rhetoric of particular issues through the lives of a play's
characters. "Lone Star," a one-act
serio-comedy by playwright James
McClure is especially effective in il<luminating the paradoxes and ironies
of men's experience.

Western Washington University will
present "Lone Star." Director Ken
Terrel hopes "the audience can go
beyond the jokes and listen to the
things that we can learn from the
play." Terrell, a graduate student in
the Western Washington University
Masters of Theater program, will
premiere this production of the play
this Sunday at the Directors Festival
in Seattle's New City Theater.

At 8 p.m. on Wednesday, April 16
in the TESC Recital Hall, the Fourth

The play is centered around two
brothers, Roy and Ray, as they
spend a night of drunkenness, con-

fessions and reconciliation behind
the bar of a small-town Texas
honkytonk. Roy has recently returned from Vietnam and is trying to adjust to the changes that he finds in
his new life. Terrell says, "I think
McClure used humorous ways in
showing how a man adjusts to
civilian life after returning from war
and also how people hold on to their
past and the idealized images of how
they want life to be."
The Wednesday evening event is

ing a member of a subversive group;
(2.) despite Quesada's release the
U.S. government did not have the
kind of influence the delegation
thought it did over the government
of EI Salvador; (3.) he asked if Marshall's delegation was armed, and
upon receiving a negative answer,
said; (4.) Marshall and his group
were only in danger as long as they
remained near Quesada, and if they
left him they would probably remain
safe. According to Marshall, two
hours later the vans outside the hotel
disappeared .
The El Salvadoran students then
split up into groups, each group with
at least one North American in it,
and dispersed, though they felt they
were being followed . Quesada decided to return to the United States
hecause he felt that having now been
interrogated he might be in even
more danger of being picked up and
killed .
According to Marshall Quesada
went to Washington D .C. on March
29, and is currently there with his
wife hoping to testify before Congress. He was not optimistic about
returning to EI Salvador soon, Marshall said, because of the potential
threat to himself and his family.
In concluding his talk Marshall
called Quesada's release "an incredible victory" for international
organizations and concerned in-

dividuals around the world . He said
appeals for Quesada had come from
Jesse Jackson, former Ambassador
to El Salvador Robert White, the offices of several congressmen and
congressional aides-including that
of Representative Don Bonker and
his aide Clover Lockhart. He also
noted the help from several of the
religious organizations from
Canada, Italy, West Germany, and
other western countries that were
already in El Salvador for the
Romero march . Marshall speculated
that the timing of Quesada's arrest
was related to the fact that it was
Holy Week iri El Salvador, during
which the University of EI Salvador
would be closed, and media attention would be directed toward the
march for Romero .
At the end of Marshall's lecture
Sean Sinclair spoke about the petition drive to make the University of
El Salvador and The Evergreen State
College sister schools . He spoke
about how the University was
damaged while occupied by the
Salvadoran military from 1981 to
1984. Sinclair said Evergreen could
arrange for student and professor
exchanges, aid in the book drive to
rebuild the Uniersity of El
Salvador's humanities library,
replace much ~f the university'S
damaged equipment, and give support to the students and fa~ulty of
the school through public pressure.

Allende is a sociologist and leading
spokesperson for the opposition to
the Pinochet dictatorship. She has
traveled extensively and spoken at
numerous international conferences.
Of particular concern to her are
women's riRhts, the problem of the
Latin American debt, and
democracy in the Third World.
