CONTENTS

from the managing
editor:
Too often, bureaucracies have a
way of taking an interesting topic
and making it inaccessible by giving it a name with big, dull words.
I feel that way about "Strategic
Planning."
The
lower-case
phrase
"strategic planning" refers to a
process where members of this
community can map out
philosophy
and
practical
guidelines for Evergreen's future.
This involves evaluating what has
and hasn't worked in the past, and
throwing out what needs to go
while emphasizing and elaborating
on what the community has appreciated. It also involves
generating new and creative ideas
to fill in needed gaps in
Evergreen's current structure.
"The Strategic Plan" with all caps
refers to a document produced
last year by the Planning Committee outlining specific goals for
Evergreen. The Planning Council
is a body that is overseeing the implementation' of the Plan.
Students get to help do this.
Granted, it is unclear whether administrators consider this role
akin to toddlers "helping" their
mommies bake pie by banging on
pots, or whether the desires of
students are considered as valid as
the desires of the faculty and
administration.
Part of what students can help
the strategic planning process
become is a way of clarifying and
emphasizing that role.
--Polly Trout

correction
There was an accidental error in
Pam Mancano's short story "End of
the World With Pasta" last week; the
word "ominous" in the ninth
paragraph should have read
"numinous." We apologize for any
confusion.

P.S. How many newspapers use staples,

Dear Editor:
Despite the slight improvement in your
magazine, I still have many doubts about
its "literary" integrity.
Firstly, your cover shows an illustration
of little artistic depth; just placing a nude
on the cover should not facilitate the type
of controversy you are obviously attempting to generate for your fledgling
magazine. Personally, I prefer the female
figure to the male, anyway.
Secondly, since you persist in using small
and hard to read graphic markers at the
start of sections, you might as well be consistent. "Swimming the waters of
mainstream USA" and "A Day in the Life"
mysteriously lack these graphic markers.
This makes it particularly difficult, in the
case of the second article, to understand
what we are supposed to be reading. Is the
article by Ben Tansey a short story or
what?
Lastly, I was overjoyed at the sudden improvement made by Polly Trout. I look forward to hearing from her again in the
future.

CPJ:
Who the hell is John Christopher? With
the limited amount of available space in the
"new" CPJ, why is he writing these letters? Since the only articles he seems to appreciate are those written by "Mr.
Weisman," (are they friends?), maybe he
should be writing some too. The CPJ encourages students, faculty, staff, and community members to submit their own work.
If he were to do this he'd probably realize
what most writers know, and that is writing
is a difficult task.
As far as his attitude towards the paper's
"unprofessional" coverage is concerned, the
CPJ is not a professional paper. The folks
who write the articles need to have a place
to experiment with their writing so that
they can learn to become better journalists.
The CPJ should be able to give them that
chance and the readers should be a bit more
tolerant as well.
By the way John, you made a great point;
"What is governance without the people
who govern?" Maybe that was the idea

CPJ:
SHEESH! What a revoltin' development.
This recent outbreak of crab heads and
grouch-type sentiment has made reading
the letters page uninspiring and downright
raspy. Not to say this ain't the place for
criticism-but personal attacks and longwinded rants about nothing in particular at
someone else's expense? How 'bout more
consideration and gallons less ego-massage.
Having a place you can get your
2-dimensional stuff published weekly is a
boon and is probably a lot of work to put
together. If someone could extract articles
from us grumps, neither Polly nor "Mr.
Weisman" would have to spend their nights
writing "half the paper."
Tirades without heart ruin your bowling
game, so save up that righteous
HELLF1RE for something you care about
or drink less coffee or something.
Nuff sed,
Crash Madlock

Dear CPJ readers,
As a returning reader of the CP J I am
disappointed with the climate of the letters
page this year. I would be happier with this
situation if the student body in general
would view the CPJ as an arena for beginning writers and newspaper people, and
would receive each new issue with
tolerance and appreciation, instead of a
hostile watchdog mentality. Sure, the CPJ
is funky - it always has been. (It all
depends on what the present student body
makes it, folks.) It's not a professional
paper! To expect such standards and to
react with anger when the paper exhibits
amateur tendencies is to miss the point
entirely.
The editors and writers have shown
maturity in publishing the letters of the last
2 weeks, and I'm sure they have taken what
criticism was constructive into their consideration. But I don't think that this barrage of non-cooperative, smugly cynical and
downright personal abuse is either deserved or appropriate in this context! I feel that
this climate decreases the usefulness of the
CPJ to our community by making it a
threatening environment for beginning
newspaper people instead of a comfortable
space for learning.

I suggest that the superior minded plaintiffs who have been submitting letters to
( this page, contribute to Evergreen and the
CPJ (instead of detracting from it) by
writing and submitting some better articles, which I would hope they are capable
of doing, in light of their vociferous
judgements. If we care about having a better college paper, the only way to improve
it is through some positive energy contributions of our own!
In the spirit of education and cooperation,
and sincerely,
Ursula Shea-Borneo
Dear CPJ readers,
I've noticed a number of harsh criticisms
on this year's Letters page, and I wonder
. if their authors realize how much work it
takes to put out a weekly newspaper. The
staff at the CPJ is earnest and
hardworking--and probably too small. Last
year, I too leveled some annchair criticisms
at a CPJwriter. He looked at me pointedly and said, "They need good people."
I repeat that message to you. Most of
these recent letters were full of zest and imagination - why not put that energy into
an article or opinion piece? The CPJ
welcomes contributions, and holds regular
open meetings, where your barbs must be
launched at real human beings.
They need you, critics. You don't have to
be a destructive force. Visit the office.
Steve Blakeslee

Two legislators enter, stage right.
Legislator I: Why should we finance this
gym when even the students are
diametrically opposed to it?
Legislator II: I'm not at all sure of that.
Legi~tor I: We've already allocated a considerab~sum of money to The Evergreen
State College.
Legislator II: No, I don't think so. Give
them the gym.
Legislator I : Well then, let us cut the funding for the Cooper Point Journal, considering the student disapproval.
Legislator II: Why don't we just make
John Christopher the editor? He seems to
know what is going on.
Dear Editor:
It's a sad state of affairs if it ever comes
to this. Keep up the good work. God bless
you.

ty ratio in other areas." Steve Hunter, director of research and
planning, says this would be nothing new at Evergreen and doesn't
feel it marks a move toward standardized education. It makes
sense for various programs to share a lecture course such as Principles of Biology, than to have separate lectures for each program,
explains Hunter.
The seminar and other small scale learning environments will
continue to be Uthe central mode of instruction." Low student/faculty ratios will continue to be the uprimary context for
instruction. "
Individual contracts will become more available and limited to
advanced level work. Students will be involved "directly and
regularly in curricular initiatives and program planning."
A move to a semester system is up for discussion. Semesters
would alleviate the workload in the registration process and lessen
the amount of evaluations that students and faculty would have
to write. Hunter says that a change to semesters wouldn't save
very much money and will only happen if it can be shown to benefit
the quality of teaching.
Students will have more opportunities for community-service
related study involving public education, community development,
and public service to tribal, state and local government. More internships will be offered.
Greater demands on scheduling may mean more early morning
and late afternoon classes. Wednesdays might not necessarily continue as governance day but a commitment of six hours of governance a week will remain.
Plans for a gym are alive and well in the strategic plan. Whether
you call it a gym or "a facility capable of hosting large
meetings/functions for campus/off campus groups," you're talking about 8.7 million dollars.
The plan directs Gail Martin, vice president for student affairs,
to work with students to establish an accessible, efficient, participatory student governance system by December 15, 1986.
Projected improvements to student services include: Health
centers, longer library hours, increased access to the computer
center and word processing, more counseling, advising, advocacy,
housing, child care and financial aid.

Strategic Plan looks
into ,t he future
by John Kaiser

Some people may confuse Evergreen's Strategic Plan with
Reagan's Strategic Defense Initiative, but that's only because they
probably haven't read Evergreen's homegrown report. The two
are in fact vastly different. One seeks to define the direction the
college will take; the other to protect everything we own against
the evil empire. One involves largely white men in ties discussing missile size, Evergreen's planning council involved only some
white men in ties discussing, among other things, Geoduck size.
But more than just white men made decisions that will profoundly affect Evergreen's future. The Strategic Plan emerged out of
thousands of hours of discussion involving students, staff, faculty
and alumni. In the words of President Olander, the Strategic Planning process asked, "What kind of
work of art have we become, what
kind of work of art do we want to
become and howdo we get there?"
The plan outlines 10 strategic
statements, each followed by a rationale and a series of proposals.
Some proposals tie in directly with
the '87-'89 bienniel budget requ es t. Other proposals are
de signated for further discussion.
The futw'e of Evergreen is literally in yoU!' hands when and if you
can read it.
Written in a bureaucratic style,
the Strategic Plan does not lend
itself to easy reading. Few people
seem to have read the report,
even people in positions of considerable authority at Evergreen
admit to not having read it. "The
more people that do read it the
better because it' s going to be used as the basis for making decisions," said Ol ander in a CP J
interview.
A new four page summary version will be issued before the
legislative session begins in January. Perhaps the council could
go a step furth er and invite the celebrated cartoonist and
Evergreen alumn, Matt Groening, to create a cartoon version of
the plan. The creator of "Love is Hell," and "Work is Hell," could
be counted on to come up with somet hing interesting. At least
students would read it.
The Strategic Planning process began over a year ago in
response to widespread agreement in the legislature that each
state institution of higher education should write a clear goalsand- mission statement and use it in operating the institution.
Olander started the ball rolling at E vergreen last year and appointed vice president and provost Patrick Hill to chair the
Strategic Planning Council. Hill then formed two subcommittees.
v- The Values and Aspirations Subcommittee worked to define the

•

center of Evergreen's values and identify its needs and goals. The
Environmental Subcommittee researched the relationship between
Evergreen and the socio-economic nature of the state. Each subcommittee was made up offaculty, academic deans, students, staff
and alumni. A resources subcommittee was later added. Each subcommittee issued final reports to the planning council which in turn
produced a draft for review by the Board of Trustees, The trustees
made some minor editorial changes, mostly concerning
Ever,g-reen's obligation to serve Southwest Washington.
Evergreen is growing. The college had to turn away 400-500
students last year who wanted to come here. What was once called one of the ten best-kept secrets of higher education is no longer
a secret. More people are telling their moms that Evergreen is
great. It says so in US News and World Report.
Right now, according to the
planning council, growth means
about 600 new full time students
by fall, 1988, provided the
legislature coughs up the cash.
The Strategic Plan states, "Additional funding for necessary
resources will be identified and
secured in advance of implementing growth in order to ensure the
delivery of high quality educational programs." No new cash, no
growth, according to the plan.
For years the State Legislature
pushed for Evergreen to grow.
Our emerging national reputation
." .'
and the increased demand for admission mark a profound turning
point for the college. Evergreen
' -.
appears to have its best chance
ever of getting what it wants.
A new academic landscape may
emerge. "We must address the
immediate need for hiring to supgraphic by Rebecca Bllssell
port stressed areas such as Expressive Arts," says the plan. A weekend college for "place-bound"
adults and a new program on "Pacific Rim Studies" top the charts
of possible new programs. But while the Strategic Plan defines
our priorities, it does not clearly indicate which of the top priorities
will emerge if full funding is not secured.
The planning council proposes "a curriculum that is predictable,
continuous and flexible to assure the academic development of
students from introductory to advanced and graduate level study."
However, it explicitly states t hat planning and staffing of Core
Programs takes priority over advanced study. Olander said he has
received numerous complaints from students that there are not
enough advanced programs. Will budget constraints continue t o
weed out advanced programs in favor of Core Programs?
More large lecture courses may be offered "as places where
, the curriculum could bulge in order to enable a lower student/facul\;,

What Kinds of Students will come to Evergreen?
"We are in a position, for the first time in Evergreen's history,
to ask 'what kind of student body do we want?' " Olander said.
Recruitment efforts will be geared primarily toward Southwest
Washington. At the same time, the college seeks a diverse student body.. The plan highlights diversity as "one of the derming
characteristics of the emerging world ofthe twenty-firSt century."
Instead of just tolerating cultural differences, attention will be
focused on cr.oss-cultural communication.
600 new students would bring the total up to about 3200 - considered the limit that the existing buildings can hold. Evergreen
already faces a severe housing shortage. This shortage affects the
type of students Evergreen should recruit, says Steve Hunter.
It might not be wise to recruit more students who want to live
on campus, notes Hunter. Transfer students and those coming
directly from high school tend to want to live on campus during
their first year. The college is not requesting money for new housing from the legislature this year, nor is any federal assistance
expected in the immediate future.
A DTF is now being formed to recommend new admissions
policy by February, 1987. How Evergreen decides to limit enrollment is open to question_ Last year this was accomplished when
Admissions closed its doors to applicants on May 16. Most colleges
require specific grade point averages and SAT scores to narrow
the pool of eligible applicants.
According to the planning council's Environmental Subcommittee, there is some pressure in the legislature to increase admissions standards at all state c~lleges and to make them .uniform.
In the past one of the suggestions for making Evergreen less expensive was to set higher admission standards and charge higher
tuition.
The plan recognizes that "the college serves many students well
whose previous experience in traditional educational settings has
been unsuccessful." I want us to have a policy that will allow as
much open access to Evergreen as possible," Olander said.
Does the Strategic Plan reflect the values and goals of the
Evergreen community?
President Olander certainly thinks so. "I've been associated with

tl1l' Plan "just ain't what we talked about."
To the editors and the Evergreen
communiw.
I have heard that this issue of the CPJ
will focus on the Strategic Plan. I was an
active member of the Values and Aspirations subcommittee. I have two things to
say about the Plan and its process - one
is negative and one is positive.
During President Olander's convocation
speech to the faculty and staff, he wished
to thank those involved with the Plan for
ajob well done. A dean sitting near me said,
"That means you Jon," implying, I think,
that I should be proud of my contribution.
I am.
I am neither proud of nor happy with the
final document - when I first read the final
draft I was angry. I was angry because I
tho~ht the pl!ll1 reflected yery little of
what the V & A subcommittee worked on.
Excuse me, that is not quite accurate. The

Strategic Plan touches on many of the
issues we discussed; but they don't fit
together. Where is the internal coherence?
For example, the strategic statement about
planned growth shakes the integrity of the
document: Why is the president focusing on
a 3200 FTE level, when the plan emphasizes "staged" growth with the first
level at 2800 FTE? The plan should be
changed to accurately reflect the administration's goals. But beware! That is
not just a numerical change.
"Orientation and enculturation for new
faculty and staff' to "not cause conful:?ion ...{IIl,A.5)" - ~xcuse me. wa§.iQ\lt to
lunch during those V & A meetings? What
happened to the centrality of interdisciplinary studies? That proposal
deserves two asterisks.
Ok, I'm rambling... those objections can
probably be countered from different but

equally valid perspectives. I still have a
sense (a sense of wonder?!) that the plan
just ain't what we talked !!kout. I hope that
other V & A members wil respond to this
letter.
I said I was proud of my contribution. I
am. But you won't find my work scattered
over twenty-odd pages of paper. I like to
think that my contribution was in the
meetings; in the working, learning andjoking together. No one shook another
member's foundation of understanding, but
each member contributed to the committee's understanding of Evergreen's central
values - and any person on campus can do
that just by working with other people.
One to one, person to person - keep that
kind of "structure" in mind when you work
on a student governance structure.

Jon Holz

Cheryl Cowan of the Students Communications Commission
does not feel she was effective during planning council meetings.
"The plan is very vague in a lot of areas and that's the problem,"
she said. Cowan, like many students, fears growth may destroy
Evergreen. She favors expanding the Tacoma and Vancouver campuses to accomodate more students.
According to Olander, growth will "round out the college,"
leading to better facilities and more advanced programs.

four different planning processes in two different states and I've
never been associated with one that has been as sensitive and as
sophisticated and as community based as this one ... I can assert
with confidence that the plan has the legitimacy of the community," he said.
·Jon Holz, a student who served on the Values and Aspirations
subcommittee, said the final report of the strategic plan "does not
accurately reflect the work of the Values and Aspirations
committee."
Chairman of the V & A committee Rudy Martin disagreed,
believing the plan was faithful in content and tine to the V & A
report. "No issue got discussed without reference to those reports"
(of the V & A and Environmental subcommittees). Martin added
that people will continue to use the subcommittee reports in
future planning.
.

Southwest Washington
The planning council places a great deal of emphasis on
Evergreen's need to serve Southwest Washington. "The college
recognizes Southwest Washington as the area of the state for
which our service obligation is greates," says the plan. Much of
the plan is written to show how EVergreen benefits the State of
Washington and Southwest Washington, in particular.
Cheryl Cowan sees too much of an emphasis on Southwest
Washington in the report. Cowan explained that Evergreen sHould
be able to do what it wants in the interests of learning instead
of being obligated to serve the community.
The Environmental Subcommittee reported that legislators are
becoming more concerned with seeing measurable outcomes in
higher education. "Many civic leader, legislators and educators
want higher education to be much more active and creative in serving the citizens of the state to help turn around the widespread
economic decline, especially in Southwest Washington," notes the
committes final report.
Will funding for higher e~ucation emerge as a priority on a par
with comparable worth and water quality? The Environmental
Subcommittee reports that higher education hasn't competed well
with other demands. Expenditures for higher education have dropped from about 15% of the state budget to about 10%. The committee concludes that if Evergreen wants more funding it must
build a convincing case that higher education is central to the
state's larger goals of economic development and environmental
quality.

Some specific proposals didn't make it into the strategic plan.
For instance, the V & A committee proposed, "a review of possible
ways in which the Evergreen staff could organize into cooperative
units that make their own decisions, establish their own procedures
and evaluate their work in consultation with their supervisors and
the people they serve." This did not appear in the final Strategic
Plan. Martin believed that the idea was implicit in the plan and
still alive in the community. Olander, asked whether he believed
in this type of organization, said, "The question of getting people
involved in decisions that affect their units is something I try to
practice. At Evergreen one has to reach a midway point - we
need some hierarchical efficiency and some decentralized
structure. "
The V & A called for a formal review of intercollegiate
athletics. The Planning Council moved to limit intercollegiate
sports to soccer and swimming. The Board of Trustees eliminated
language specifically limiting intercollegiate athletics but maintained budget priorities so that only two sports are currently
possible.
While Holz was disappointed in the final plan he expressed personal admiration for council chairman, Patrick Hill and "what he's
trying to do for this college."
Shirley said the council went out of its way to solicit campus
views and opinion. "The process was very much a success," he said.
"I've never seen a more open process," said Martin.
But for some the strategic planning process was too bureaucratic
and time consuming. Student James McGuire felt that talking to
individual members of the committees was the best way to get
his point across.

The Continuing Strategic Planning Process
"Strategic Planning isn't an episodic process which has a clear
beginning point and a clear ending point," explains Olander. A
new Strategic Planning Council is being formed this year with
some of the same members. The first meeting will have taken place
on Wednesday, October 15. According to Steve Hunter, the council
will coordinate the development of a comprehensive plan for
growth to 3200 full time students.

Anti-Apartheid Alliance
rallies for divestiture

•

The latest stage in the campaign to force
divestiture of U.S. investments in South
Africa began last week at Evergreen. The
current objective is to get the state of
Washington to join countless other states
and municipalities in withdrawing investments from companies that do btlsiness
with South Africa. The state currently has
several major funds, including the state
employees' pension program, in such
companies.
The campaign is being conducted with
public demonstrations, including the rallies
on Red Square on October 9 and on the
steps of the state capital on October to. On
a different front, Larry Hildes, organizer
of the rallies, met on Monday with
representatives of Governor Booth Gardner to discuss the issue.
The rally on campus was sponsored by
the Evergreen Political Information Center
(EPIC) and the Anti-Apartheid Alliance
and featured several speakers including
Evergreen professor of Political Economy,
Alan Nasser. Nasser criticized the footdragging of the Reagan administration on
the issue of economic sanctions against
South Africa. Nasser felt the the U.S.
government was more concerned with
keeping a potential black South African
government from moving into the sphere
of the Soviet Union than with actually
achieving majority rule.
EPIC coordinator Janine Thome also ad·
dressed those in attendance. She noted that
work still remained to be done on campus,
as the Alliance had recently discovered that
the campus food service contractor, SAGA
foods, is a subsidiary of the Marriot Hotel
Corporation. Marriot is the largest hotel
chain in South Africa. Thome pointed out
that the Evergreen Board of Trustees passed a resolution in January of 1985 divesting
Evergreen from companies doing business
with South Africa and that by renewing
SAGA's contract last summer, the Board
had violated its own resolution. She said an
appeal will be made to the Board to dissolve

the contract and urged a boycott of SAGA
by students.
The Friday rally was somewhat marred
by a turnout of only 30 people, compared
with several hundred the day before.
Stephanie Coontz, Evergreen history professor, said that perhaps the low turnout
was a result of the saturation of the issues
confronting people, but that the issue still
enjoyed strong support. The demonstration
went on nevertheless, as Coontz criticized
those who oppose divestiture on the alleg·
ed grounds that it will harm those who it
is supposed to help, the blacks. She said
pressure must be brought to bear on those
who find it profitable to invest before any
impact could be made. She questioned the
assertion that maintenance of the white
minority regime provides stability because
that same government has repeatedly invaded its black-ruled neighbors. Dave
Campbell, TESC student and member of
the largest public employees union in the
state, read a resolution from the union's July meeting calling the state to divest.

Hildes, who addressed both rallies, laid
out a series of demands on the state government calling for immediate and total
divestiture and cancellation of state contracts with companies who still have South
African investments such as Shell Oil.
The Monday meeting with the Governor's
policy assistant, Laird Harris, was nonconfrontational. Harris explained that
Governor Gardner, while favoring
~;· divestiture, is constrained by current laws

from taking unilateral action. According to
Harris, the State Investment Board makes
investments of state funds based on risk
and rate of return. A change in this policy
must be mandated by the legislature,
however, Harris said the Governor could
be expected to endorse "responsible"
legislation calling for divestiture. Hildes in
turn passed on information about organizations that have aided other public agencies
in divestiture strategies.
In the last session of the legislature, two
divestiture bills were introduced but failed to win passage. Between now and the
opening of the next legislative session in
January, Hildes plans to mount a lobbying
effort to put pressure on the legislators to
enact divestiture legislation.

Olympians support
fasting veterans
Olympia supporters of four American
veterans who are fasting on the steps of the
U.S. Capitol are staging their own 100 hour
vigil and support-fast October 13-17 in
Sylvester Park. They will express their
support of the veterans' protest of U.S.
policy in Nicaragua.
The purpose of the Olympia fast is· to
bring attention to veteran demonstrators,
three from the Vietnam War and one from
World War II, who have been fasting for
about six weeks. The men, Charlie Liteky
of San Francisco, California; George Mizo
of Boston, Massachusetts; Duncan Murphy
of Sulphur Springs, Arkansas; and Brian
Wilson of Chelsea, Vermont, all say that
they don't want to die although they are
willing to do so for this cause.
Liteky and Mizo started their fast on
September 1, and Mizo has recently told
co~panions that he believes that he only
has about five days left to live. A statement
by the Veterans Fast for Life organization
states their goals: "The Veterans Fast for
Life is an appeal to save lives - the innocent lives of Nicaraguans which are being
taken by Contra aid. But it is also an appeal to save the life - the very moral fabric
- of this nation. It is an appeal to the
American people to say 'no' to our government leaders whb are making war on
Nicaragua and to demand that they stop
the aggression."
For more information on joining the
Olympia fast, call the Evergreen Political
Information Center at x6144.

Trustees approve
harassment policy
The Evergreen State College Board of
Trustees approved a new sexual harassment policy governing the campus at their
October 8 meeting. Legislation has been in
process for some time now, attempting to
comply with a state Executive Order (83-12)
passed in December of 1983 by former
Governor John Spellman.
The order requires that state agencies
take steps to prevent sexual harassment
by: 1) developing policy which defines and
strongly disapproves of sexual harassment
2) informing employees (and students) of
their right to raise the issue of sexual
harrassment, 3)providing training and
education in order to eliminate and prevent
sexua.l ~arassment, and, 4) developing and
exercIsmg appropriate sanctions.
A Sexual Harassment DTF was formed
at Evergreen in 1984 to meet these requirements but failed to do so. Faculty
member Art Mulka took action two years
ago to fmish what was originally begun by
the DTF. Affirmative Action Officer
Margarita Mendoza de Sugiyama presented
a flow chart on combatting sexual harassment at the Board meeting which gained
approval of the Trustees. The Evergreen
State College is now, nearly three years
later, in full compliance with the Executive
Order.

At present, we own one Data General
(DG) computer which we have had for three
years. It is a powerful computer designed
chiefly for dealing with · large and complicated numbers and computations. While
it quickly simplifies long projects, it isn't
designed for the average user. We also own
a number of AT&T personal computers and
small terminals. With the AT & Ts in the
Computer Lab (LABII 1223) and the DG
and other terminals in the Library, we
already have good facilities.
Sometime in December or January, we
will receive three mini computers called
3B2/4oo's or 3B's for short. They are a type
commonly used to run phone companies.
These are more user friendly and are good
at controlling a number of smaller
computers.

AT & T beefs up
Computer Services
Success does have its rewards. Last May,
the faculty of The Evergreen State College
wr.ote up a grant proposal for computer
equipment. They wanted to receive equipment which could expand and utilize the
equipment we presently own and still leave
room for growth in the future. What we are
about to receive is $400,000 for equipment,
installation and guidance from American
Telegraph and Telephone (AT & T).
Out of approximately $50 million in donations, AT & T granted us 1 out of every
125 dollars spent. Evergreen received the
highest rating from AT & T for donation
priority in their Northwest district.
Nothing we receive will be in the form of
cash; $300,000 will arrive in hardware and
software, the rest will come in installation

The personal computers will be able to access the 140 megabytes (140,000,000 letters
or pieces of information) of the 3B and so
have a much easier time at finding programs. Part of the software will have educational programs to teach people, among
other things, how to program and use
computers.
Why has AT & T released all of this to us?
Corporations frequently make gifts to
schools to receive tax breaks and to become
more involved with the community. Before
the breakup of Pacific Northwest Bell ,
however, AT & T was not allowed to sell its
advanced computer technology because of
monopoly laws. Now, they have developed
amazing tools for us to use.
If you haven't stopped by the computer
facilities, please do. You'll find life a lot
easier to understand as supermarkets and
banks become riddled with sophistications.

KAOS laughs $ out of
listeners
The annual membership drive for KAOSFM, the campus radio station, began Friday, October to, and will continue through
the 19th.
"No heavy guilt trips here," according to
general manager Michael Huntsberger.
"We try to laugh the money out of people's
wallets."
In addition to raising funds, the membership drive often provides listeners and staff
with on-air surprises. Huntsberger said
"One never knows what will happen around
here at membership time." The Edison
Jones Band performed on KAOS October
12, and on October 19 Bill Brown and the
King-bees will be broadcasting live.
There are five different member ship
plans ranging in price from .$15 to $150,
each with their own special benefits. Levels
of support above $25 give the subscriber a
discount card good for to-percent off at participating local businesses.
KAOS operates on a yearly budget of
$50,000. The membership drive and special
events account for about $15,000, while student activities fees pay the difference.

Security offers
notification service
Evergreen students with children in local
schools can fill out an Emergency Notification Form at the Campus Security office.
According to Lana Naught of Campus
Security, in case an emergency at a child's
school, " ... their teacher or administrator
can call Security and we can quickly find
the parent and relay any necessary
information. "
Parents register theri name, student LD.
number, address, phone, emergency phone,
and their complete day-to-day schedule, including room numbers. Parents should also
include names of children and the schools
they attend. "We can find students on the
roster but that takes a long time and only
shows the program the student is in, not
where they'll be at any given time," says
N aught. "With the information right here
on file, we won't lose a lot of valuable time
tracking a student down, " she said.
Naught also mentioned that the program
is available to all Evergreen students that
may need to be quickly contacted. "If they
have a kid in daycare or their parents ar e
ill--just about any reason is fine as long as
they're a student." Forms are available at
the Security office.

Dorm chefs
activate alarms
On eight separate occasions, fire alarms
have disrupted the lives of many housing
residents living on campus this year. Both
Robert Carlson, assistant director of Housing, and Jordan Pollack, Captain of McLane
Fire District Engine Company 92, stated
also that none of the eight alarms were activated with malicious intent, but were instead caused by student cooking.
Steak, eggs, toast, and inattentiveness
were the culprits in a few cases. Heavy
smoke, which resulted in heat build-up, was
a contributing factor to the general alarms.
In order to avoid recurring "unnecessary"
building evacuations, Carlson advises
students to cook more cautiously, open windows to ventilate areas of dense smoke,
and, if burning a candle, to avoid placing
shelves or smoke detectors near the heat.
Pollack, who is also affiliated with the public
relations and education section of the fire
department, suggested that, "maybe Housing could sponsor a cooking class."
Sometimes a student or visitor will pull
an alarm for no apparent reason. If it is evident that the individual had no valid reason
for activating the alarm, the person may be
held liable for all costs. The monetary cost
is approximately $250, but the real price
may be a lot greater. Eighty percent of the
calls to McLane Fire Distric number Nine
are of a medical nature: someone's health
or life is concerned. The department may
be urgently needed elsewhere in their 32
square mile district, and an alarm at
Evergreen will lengthen response time.
Because malicious intent has not been evident this year, and due to cooperation and
understanding from the Housing residents,
Pollack said the firefighters are "all pretty happy about how students are dealing
with the alarms."

The Career Development Office will host
Evergreen's first MBA/MPA Graduate
School Fair on the second floor
the Library on October 22nd, 3:00 to 5:00
p.m. Representatives of seventeen
Washington and Oregon programs will be
on hand. to discuss specifics of their
Business/Public Administration graduate
programs, including Evergreen's own MPA
Program.

The representatives of the various
schools
attending
the
fair will be prepared to discuss aspects of
their programs such as, how one can best
prepare at the undergraduate level for advanced schooling in Business/Public Administation, career options available at the
MBA/MPA level, practicum opportunities
whether or not their program offers
assistantships, scholarships and otherforms
of Financial Aid, and any other unique
aspects of their schools which might be of
interest to the Evergreen students.
"Because of the success of the Summer
Employment Fair held last year we decided to give Evergreen students a similiar opportunity to speak with representatives
from several graduate programs in a fair
setting," says Roy Watters, coordinator of
the Visitors to Campus Program.
The reason the MPAlMBA Fair is so early in the year is to give students who are
considering attending graduate school next
fall sufficient time to meet application
deadline requirements. Deadlines for admittance applications and financial aid
forms are due Feb.- April.

Grad placement reaches
94%
1985 graduates from The Evergreen
State College had a 94% work or study
placement rate, according to a new
Graduate Placement Report prepared by
the Office of Career Development.
The placement report is a descriptive
analysis of employment, graduate study,
and other activities of the three most recent graduating classes, according to Joyce
Weston, Director of Career Development.
According to the report, Evergreen
graduates continue to find and maintain
successful careers and to use their liberal
arts degrees creatively. The report states
that 57% of 1985 graduates were placed in
the interest areas designated at graduation,
11% were accepted to graduate school or
other educational institutions, 11% are
retired, traveling, or homemaking, while
only 6% are actually seeking employment.
In spite of depressed employment on both
state and national levels, the 97% placement rate is up 20% from 1984. The report
claims that an active job search accounts
for the increase.
"Compared to a national placement
average of around 75%, our placement is
outrag,eous," added Weston.

Older Women's League
battles for rights, respect
by Older Women's League

Contact person:
Sally Giovine-Kerr
'You old bat!' or 'What a sweet little old
lady!' Older women dGn't need or deserve
either one. They want to be seen for who
they really are. Older women and mid-life
women have carried their weight and more
in this society. They have borne children
raised them, and loved them in the deepest
part of their hearts. Older women have
worked in factories and lofts and offices;
they have worked as professionals sometimes as doctors, lawyers, merchants,
or chiefs - but very seldom have they made
policy, except in the home.
They have been divorced after thirty
years of marriage without pension or social
security and they have divorced after years
of struggling relationships and sometimes
abuse. Sound sweet? No! But that is the
image-versus-reality of a great number of
older women.
Older Women's League is a political advocacy organization that grew out of The
Displaced Homemakers Group and a
presidential task force finally willing to take
a.long look at what was happening to older
women in the United States. Some of it is
shocking. Forty-four percent of black
women over the age of 60 live below
poverty.
Military wives have been tossed out of
marriages after years of traveling around
the world with their children, following husBARBARA J. MONDA,

band's careers only to find out that they are
not entitled to any part of their exhusband's pension.
Homemakers discover in their fifties ,
after giving up career-development years,
that they are divorced and have no social
security for twenty-five years of raising
children, running a household, and putting
in twelve to sixteen hour days. There is
grief, there is anger, there is amazement
that this is so.
Older Women's League is working with
Congress and state legislatures to rectify
these injustices. The Olympia-Thurston
County OWL has existed for one and a half
years and is working to bring about both
federal and state changes in social security, military pensions, respite care, health
-msilrance continuation, and low income
housing.
The issues of Older Women's League are
basic survival 'issues: money, housing, food,
health care, transportation and two often
ignored issues loneliness and
acknowledgement of worth in society. The
single older woman is no exception. She has
worked for years at "women's jobs" making considerably less money than men, doing work that was more menial than mental, accruing a social security that is bare-·
ly livable, and with far less chance to
earn an equitable pension.
Social security, designed in the 1930's
depression years, was never meant to be
lived on, yet a great number of men and
women in the Uniteci States are forced to

pay rent, buy food and medical expenses on
a meager amount of social security or SSI.
There is a myth being developed that
older people are living high on the hog and,
of course, some older citizens are living well
off their savings, investments, pensions
(military and corporate) and social security; however, statistics show that the
percentage of older people living in such
economic paradise is less than 13%.
In a new charting of social stratification
in the United States statistics from U.S.
government reports show that the older
population is predominantly weighted in
two categories: below $6,000 and below
$12,000 per year. That is not .an aflluent ____
older society.
The Older Women's League of Olympia
and Thurston County is planning a study
of mid-life and older women in this area to
ascertain the real situation in this seemingly middle class area.
The Older Women's League is having an
intergeneration workshop October 18th at
The United Churches, 11th a~d
Washington. This Saturday Workshop will
begin at 9 a.m. and end at 4 p.m. The purpose of this workshop is for younger, midlife and older women to focus on "What
kind of older woman do I want to be?" A
critical question for women of all ages to
answer. The cost is $5; bring your own
lunch. It is open to the public. Evergreen
students are particularly urged to come, to
consider using the information in classes
and research work.

This interview is part ofa weekly series in which the CPJ will
talk with members of the Evergreen community who hold diverse
and interesting views, or who have specific knowledge which may
further our understanding of the community and the issues facing it. This week, the CPJ's managing editor Polly Trout interviewed Jacinta McKoy on the Strategic Plan. Jacinta was afulltime student at Evergreen for four years and is now a staff
member in the Dev.elopment Office. She served on the Planning
Council last year.
Polly: Why did you join the Strategic Planning Council?
Jacinta: I had no idea what I
planned to accomplish. I joined
because I hoped to become involved here on campus and I felt that
the process itself would be based
in
philosophical
revamping, and that it would , be .
something that would really make
a difference in the process we had
here: not just another DTF.
Polly: Did you hope to change the
philosophy and structure of
Evergreen?
Jacinta: Not really change,
because I don't think that it was
really down on paper anywhere.
There wasn't a structure and I
wanted to get involved in building
one.
Polly: What sort of goals did you
have for that structure?
Jacinta: None. There was no way
of knowing what it would be like,
since it was the first time it had
ever been done. But it will
continue.
Polly: How was the student input?

("'.I

,

Jacinta: Excellent. When we first started, it wasn't really clear '
what the consequences would be .. .I think the students thought
we were just going to be another DTF. Oftentimes with DTFs,
they look into something and then when they actually end, there
ar~ never any concrete decisions about the issues to look at. As
time went on, people began to realize that it was going to mean
something, that this process was different, that they really were
going to do something with the Strategic Plan ..

Polly: Which aspects of the Plan do you see as being very
successful?

Jacinta: Since none of them have come to any kind of fruition as
of yet, it's hard to weight the value of the success so far. I think
that each strategic statement in itself represents some sort of success. I think now is going to be the time where we see how well
each of the statements work.

Polly: We recieved a letter from a member of the Values and
Aspirations Subcommittee who believed that the work of that committee didn't show up in the final draft. Do you think that's true?
Jacinta: Since Rudy Martin, who
chaired the Values and Aspirations committee, was on the Planning Council ~mself, I think a lot
of the tone, the flavor, the content
of their report was considered in
almost every single statement.
But I think that what that
member didn't see was lot of the
particular work that they did
because it was so philosophical.
The Environmental report was so
figure-oriented-it was this county, and those figures, and in comparison to everything. And the
Values and Aspirations tried to
take a stab at what was the
rhetoric, or the feeling, or the
philosophical commitment of the
campus. To me, that was the meat
of everything. It's hard to take a
document that has emotions, that
has feelings, that has the thoughts
that people have, and put that into an institutional document_ ..It's
sad, I think. Possibly what would
help is to have an internal document which would say things that
only
E vergreeners
and
Evergreen administrators would
need to know, and then have an external document that people
could look at and say, "This is where Evergreen is going."

Film series explores technology
by John Aikin

"Society and the Computer" is sponsoring a year-long film series called "Too Many
Movies." The title comes from the program
faculty's discovery that there were simply
too many good films to show in one year.
The film series focuses on films which are
relevant to the program's study of the relationships between society and technology,
but an equally important criterion was that
the films be cinematically interesting.
The more than thirty films are organized into three series: one for each quarter.
The Fall quarter series is mainly composed of films about the immediate impacts of
technology on contemporary western life
and work. These fall quarter films are:
October 20
'I 'Strozek" (1977, 108

October 27
"Nine to Five" (1980,
110 mins.)
"Human, too Human"
November 3
(1972, 77 mins.)
November 10
"In the Year of the Pig"
(1969, 101 mins.)
November 17
"The Last Picture
Show" (1971, 118 mins.)
December 1
"2001: A Space
Odyssey" (1968, 143 mins.)
All films in the series "Too Many Movies"
are shown at 4 p.m., Mondays in Lecture
Hall 1. Tickets are $1.50 at the door. Some
of the films may also be shown at 7 p.m.
Watch for signs around campus. If you like

Dear Mr. John Christopher,
I have just completed reading your friendly, rational letter. Thank you for ruining my
Monday evening, as you have for the
previous two weeks. Of course, I am sure
you do this intentionally, as it is obviously
your one goal in life to put down this
pUblication. Oh, am I making asssumptions?
... Must have adopted some of your scathing
literary style.
A response to your thoughtless letters is
probably just what you want. Granted, it
sounds like a good way to get some
negative attention. However, I thought I
might like to give you the "other side of the
story."
The CP J staff is made up of a dedicated
staff of people (yes, that's right, we're
human beings. We even have - gulp - feelings!). This staff works all week long, at all
hours of the day, to put out this publication.
While you, Mr. Christopher, are laying in
your bed on most evenings, perhaps
even ... sleeping... the people that put this
paper together are in the CPJ office (that's
CAB 306, in case you ever have the dignity to stop by), working.

-Q:

This may be difficult to believe, but the
staff of the Cooper Point Journal does not
make it their goal, week by week, month
by month, to put out a publication that is
distasteful to its readers. In fact, everyone
here works pretty damned hard to do a
good job. It's letters like yours that can ruin
somebody's day.
So, if you'd like to continue your weekly
synopsis of all of the terrible things about
the articles, graphics, pictures, headlines"
overall tone, and (dare I say it again?) people that seem to be the negative objects of
your infatuation, then perhaps you can
negotiate your own column with the editor.
If you haven't the gall to attempt this feat,
then I challenge you - before you write
your next letter - to visit the C PJ office
(maybe next Wednesday morning at 2 a.m.
- if you happen to be around). Of course,
if you're not functioning at that time of the
day, there's always the open meeting on
Friday morning. Either way, I'm
reasonably sure that the sta.if will not greet
you with scathing remarks or even gritted
teeth. Believe it or not, criticisms ' are
welcomed here at the CPJ.
So are compliments.

Jacinta: Patrick was an incredible facilitator. I think Patrick's
voice is very strong inside of the document. Sometimes he was
able to commit people's thoughts to words much better than they
could do themselves.
Polly: How did you feel about the recommendations made by the
Board of Trustees?
Jacinta: The one that I'm not very comfortable with at all is the
one for the 600 FTE increase. I understand that with the money
we'd recieve we could broaden and deepen programs, but the feeling of 600 more people on campus would probably change
everything. The Evergreen that was once was, four years ago
when I came here, is going to be very different; we're going to
go in some different directions. It's not going to be the same thing
at all.
Polly: Do you have a picture in your mind of that future?
Jacinta: It's not yet defined, because each statement has the
potential to go fifty-thousand different ways. It depends on what

Polly: Are there parts of the plan that you are uncomfortable with
because you feel that they do not represent the consensus of the
students?

Jacinta: Oh, sure. There was not enough student input for the~
to even be any kind of consensus. I'm sure there are a lot of things
that could infuriate a lot of students on campus.
Polly: What did you learn from the process?
Jacinta: Never to sign up for one again ... no, just joking. One thing
I learned is just how multi-contextual and faceted a process of planning can be-and is. And I think one reason students are put off
by this sort of thing is that they haven't taken the time to figure
out how it was done in the past. For me, it was a really good lesson
in stopping, listening, looking, looking some more, reading some
more, before I said anything. That's not to say I sat around for
months on end without saying anything. There's a lot more that
goes on in a planning process, or any kind of process, than what

Garbage thrown out residents' windows
this year has been making the view behind
the dorms ail ugly one.
Various bottles, empty pizza boxes, cof·
fee grounds and other assorted trash can
be seen from the dorm windows not facing
the courtyard. D-dorm is especially bad.
Those who live on the first floor experience
the smell of rotting refuse along with the
flies attracted to it.
Said one student resident, "It looks like
a real slimehole. My roommates and I are
getting so fed up we are on the verge of go·
ing back there and picking up the trash
ourselves.' ,
At the D·dorm meeting residents were in·
formed of the garbage problem and were
told that those caught throwing litter out
of their windows would now be fined. No
reported fines have been issued; however,
the trash is increasing.
--Kelly Johnson

Jacinta: One thing that could happen is that whoever decides to
do that kind of work can somehow work it in to their academic
program. Something I'd love to see is people's work loads being
reduced. Right now, if you're taking 16 credits you're probably
earning 24.

Biking a rare opportunity
to stay on the far right

I
I.....J

«
w

I

by Todd Litman
I t is not surprising that literally hundreds
of people bicycle to and from Evergreen;
we are located in a good area for bicycling.
. If you use a bicycle for either transportation or recreation here are some things to
know:

0:.

•

•

RECREATION

Bicycling and the Law
Bicycles used on the roadway have the
same rights and responsibilities as other
vehicles. Just because bicycles are small
and often slower than other vehicles does
not change their right to use the road
system or the traffic laws they must follow.
Courtesy and safety also dictate that
bicyclists observe traffic laws to make
themselves predictable and visible.
Bicycles must stop· or yield when required, use a light after dark and allow
vehicles to pass. But forget the old rule to
"stay as far to the right as possible." This
concept is oversimplified. It was
developed for children. Bicyclists shold
choose their position in the lane according
to speed, the width of the lane and the condition of the road and its shoulder.
When keeping up with traffIc, such as
when descending the Westside Hill or in the
stop-and-go driving of downtown, it is best
to ride in the center of the lane, just like
other vehicles. This puts the bicycle where
drivers look for traffic, and avoids confusion at intersections.
When riding slower than the flow of traffic, bicyclists should stay to the right side
of the lane in order to make it safer and
easier for faster vehicles to pass. Many
roads are wide enough, or traffic is light
enough, that passing is no problem. Some
older, narrow roads require automobiles to
slow down and wait for a safe opportunity
to pass. This is their responsibility. Out of
courtesy a bicyclist may choose to get off
the roadway onto the ;;houlder but this is
only required when delaying five or more
vehicles.
A bicyclist is not required to ride so far
to the right that it is hazardous. Never ride
close to parallel parked cars in case someone opens a door. Allow three feet of
clearance.
When approaching an intersection
bicyclists should choose their lane position
'"'

.

.

..

when turning right. Choose a through lane
for going straight. When turning left, either
shift to the left like a vehicle or stay right
and become a pedestrian through the intersection. When changing lanes always
signal and yield, as any vehicle would.
A person riding on a sidewalk or pathway
must follow all rules relating to pedestrians.
Ride slowly, yield before entering or crossing a road, and yield to people on foot. This
applies to riding on Red Square and on any
path on campus.
The police where you grew up may have
happily ignored bicycle laws, but don't expect the same here. Like other college communities, Olympia has had too many problems created by bicyclists ignoring traffic laws. In recent years, local bicycling
organizations and the Olympia Police have
worked together to create a bicycle safety
program which includes enforcement of
bicycle traffic laws in addition to safety
education and prosecution of drivers who
violate bicyclists' rights. You can get a
ticket while riding a bicycle.

Where to Ride
Cooper Point (8 miles each l l1 ay): Follow
Overhulse Road north from ASH apts., .5
miles to 36th Ave. Turn right, go about 1
mile to Cooper Pt. Rd. Turn left, follow this
road about 5 miles until it deadends at the
point. This ride will take you to one of the
most scenic spots on Puget Sound, unfortunately it is all private property.
Evergreen Parkway Bikepath (1.5 miles):
A pleasant bikepath follows about a mile of
the Evergreen Parkway, ending at Mud
Bay Road. To find it, take the Parkway
North (right) about.3 mile where the road
narrows to two lanes, just before 17th Ave.

The Evergreen men's ~ccer team
defeated Western Washington University
last Sunday, 1-0, when Tim Joyce scored the
fIrst goal of the game with only three
minutes remaining in the second overtime
period.
But the real hero of the game was
freshman goalkeeper Craig Heisinger who
kept Evergreen even with several spectacular saves early in the fIrst half. Coach
Arno Zoske called it Heisinger's "best
game so far this season."
Early in the rrrst half, Heisinger deflected

wanders through the woods completely
separated from the road. Not intended for
wet weather use or fast riding, this path
makes bicyclists wonder what the designers
had in mind.
Mud Bay (3 miles): Follow the Evergreen
Parkway north (right) one mile to Mud Bay
Rd. Turn right, in about a mile you will get
to Mud Bay. On the left is the Blue Heron
Bakery and Mud Bay Pottery, on the right
a tavern. Take your choice. There is much
to explore further west or south if you bring
a good map.
Delphi Valley Road (5-plus miles): Follow
the Evergreen Parkway north (right) one
mile to Mud Bay Rd. Turn right, then a
quick left onto Delphi Valley Road. This is
one of the nicest rides in Thurston County. With a map and a picnic lunch you can
ride all of the way to Littlerock, about 13
miles, or stop at McLane Nature Trail,
about 4 miles along.
Steamboat Island Rd. (10-plus miles): Get
to Mud Bay Rd., as in route 5, turn right
on Madrona Beach Rd., just before the
freeway onramp. Follow this road through
many meanderings, about 2 miles, until you
get to 33rd Ave. at the top of a hilL Turn
left, then right onto Steamboat Is. Rd.
There is much to explore in that area including Fry Cove and Steamboat Island
itself. Take a map and food or money for
a snack.
Bicycling Resources
The Evergreen Bikeshop will help you
work on your bicycle and offers free advice.
I t is located in the CAB basement.
The Capital Bicycling Club (P.O. Box

rides and events. It also supports a Bicycle Action Committee which workds to support bicyclists' rights. Pick up a CBC
newsletter at any bikeshop or join and get
it sent to your home.
The Metro Traffic Office of the Olympia
Police Department (753-8001) oversees the
Olympia Bicycle Safety Program. They will
be happy to answer questions related to
bicycle law and safety. Also report any
harassment you receive while bicycling. Get
the license number!

the ball off his outstretched palm while diving to his left. Later in the half, he made
an even more difficult play, ranging far to ·
his left to _haul down a high floating pass.
«We've played inconsistently at times,"
said Zosk. "This is the fIrst time that we've
played 90 to 125 minutes of good soccer."
Western had an opportunity to tie the
game with just under a minute to play, but
a shot heading just inside the post, spun
wide.
Evergreen's record now stands at 6-4-3.
Their next opponent will be Concordia College next Saturday, October 18 at 2:00 at

Ex-Rainier star dies
by Michael Astrov
Jo Jo White, a former outfIelder wh6
played for the Seattle Rainiers of the old
Pacific Coast League, died early the morning of October 9 at the age of 77. White
played nine years in the Major Leagues,
mostly for the Detroit Tigers, before being
traded to the Rainiers where he became a
local favorite at Sick's Stadium. He batted
." .313 with the Tigers in 1934.

Born in

uak, Georgia, White played
for the Philadelphia Athletics and the Cincinnati Reds before rejoining Seattle after
World War II as the club's player/manager.
He had lived in Tacoma since 1976.
"He was an inspirational player," said
Edo Vanni in the P.l., White's roommate
with the Rainiers. "If you couldn't have the
fIre playing on the same ballclub with him,
you weren't a ballplayer."

Lady Geoducks beat
Oregon State
by Suzanne Steilberg
The geoduck women's soccer team collected a win as they beat Oregon State
University's women by a score of 2-1 last
Sunday at Evergreen. This win boosts
the women's overall record to four wins
and four losses, including two wins from
exhibition games.
The coach of the women, Steve Kaczak, pointed out efforts by Erica
Buchanan, Claire Carver and Anne Hollingsworth. Both Buchanan and Hollingsworth scored goals in the match:
Buchanan was assisted by Carver.
Overall, Coach Kaczak felt that team
play was good and the game was a
success.
The next home game for the
Evergreen women's · team will be
Wednesday, October 22 at 3:30 p.m.
against Pacific Lutheran University.
