CONTENTS

editor's note:
This issue contains a variety of news
and feature pieces that are of interest.
I apologize t o those writers whose pieces
did not get in; we cannot afford to put
out a bigger paper, and not t:verything
would fit.
Of special interest to me are the two
articles on Airplane, the latest game
craze. Both authors are of the opinion
that the game is exploitative, but many
think otherwise. Refer t<Ythe letters section for a pro-Airplane ietter. I find it
notable, however, that all the game's
supporters that we worked with
adamantly refused to give their names.
If, as they claim, the game is a healthy
way to build community and trust, I
would think that they would be prouder
to be involved.
There are several letters and a news
story about the S&A allocations to student groups. As the eprs budget stands,
next year the Managing Editor,
Business Manager, Photo Editor and
Art Director will be unpaid; interns will
have to be found who can work for free.
This means the staff will be limited to
students who don't need part time jobs,
e.g . get a lot of money from their folks.
There seems 't o be some confusion
over our deadline policy. All articles are
due at noon on Monday; all letters are
due at 5 p.m. on Monday. If we let the
deadlines slide, we don't have enough
time to edit, typeset and prepare a
layout design, . and the quality of the
paper suffers. When writers request
that stories be accepted late, they are
being unfair to our staff and the other
writers who worked to get their articles
in on time.
Next week, guest editor Ben Tansey
has chosen a travel theme. If you have
photos or stories about your travels,
please bring them by.
Our last issue is June 4, with deadlines
on June 1. The theme: unrestrained
silliness. We'r e looking for comics,
satire, and fun of any imaginable variety.

To the Editor:
About the money games in town.
A variety of pyramid structured
money games (i.e. Airplane, Helicopter,
Rocket) have been circulating within the
.' .• Olympia community recently. These
games offer variable levels of financial
reward, none as great or as infinitely distant as Lotto. All of these games can be
fun and all involve fmancial risk. The
decision to play must be a conscious one,
not an act of desperation. The games require committment, responsibility, and
the willingness to help others reach a
mutual goal. They are games of choice,
chance and prosperity. They can be empowering situations enabling one to confront old patterns relating to receiving,
giving and trusting. In short, the game
often becomes a reflection of the one
who is playing, forcing them to evaluate
their attitudes towards money and how
it is "supposed" to be exchanged.
The games are two-sided coins and can
be seen as exploitive situations or as
rewarding opportunities, depending on
one's perspective. Game players are like

stockholders. Instead of investing in a
product players invest in a chance to win
and the only way anyone wins is to want
others to win also, otherwise the structure of the game collapses. Unlike corporate pyramid structures, these games
are not based on a single pilot, owner or
president continuously benefiting from
the work of those below. In these games
each player faces the same risk and has
the same opportunity to win and the
game stops when the players stop playing it. This game may not be for
everyone and as for legalities the attourney generals office recently stated
that it is not illegal. The bottom line is
no one who cannot afford to lose should
play.

Dear Evergreen Community,
News of another rape came as a shock
and a sadness. I must admit that this
issue has made me feel frustrated and
powerless. But I have decided that there
is something more that we can do. It is
2

time that we tl,lmed the tables on the
rapist. I have already begun patrolling
the campus on foot in the early moming.
It is a beautiful time of day to watch the
moon set and to reaffirm the things that
Evergreen is sup~sed to be.
After a deputy sheriff questioned me,
ten minutes into my first patrol, I came
to realize something. At these sacred
times of day, at sunrise and on starry
nights, we have come to fall into two
potential categories: victim and suspect.
Why should we lay down and take this?
The person or persons that violate our
community cause the civil rights and
peace of all to suffer. It is time that we
take our campus back from violence,
suspicion and fear.
This rapist is an invisible enemy.
Without confrontation, our anger and
fear can turn into hatred, and that
hatred can divide us. We should not pr&
ceed in the spirit of hatred or vigilantism. That will not sustain us, and we
must remember that the perpetrators of
violence are themselves victims of their
own hatred. Our love for each other
must be our,motivation, and we should
operate as an enduring presence that
says "no more!"
I will be in the woods and on the walks
and roads, watching for the rapist. I

LetterS
would like partners on foot, on bicycles
or in cars, at morning and at night. The
escort service also needs volunteers.
Call Anna at Crimewatch at 866-6000
x6144 for details on how ypu can help.
We need to be organized. If we simply
take to the woods and roads enmasse,
scare the rapist away, and he strikes
again next month, we will have accomplished little. The object is to catch
this rapist and to send a strong message
to other rapists··that they can't operate
here.
Sincerely,
Hector Douglas

no more

Dear Editor,
Once again the subject of sexual
assault is penneating this campus. When
a rape is reported (and we can be sure
that many are not) it temporarily shakes
us out of our hip, groovy, insulated, thiscan't-happen-here attitude, into the
reality of being part of a culture in which
women are commonly degraded by men
in this way. Our culture prepares males
from an early age to be potential rapists.
Weare taught to be assertive and even
aggressive, to take charge of situations
and that this is the vital link to
masculinity. Males who aren't adept at
displaying these characteristics are
often shunned and labeled effeminate.
Trying to overcome this label can poten·
tially lead to sexual violence. Trying to
live up to our society's definition of
masculinity is certainly a major cause of
sexual violence. There are a number of
motivations for commiting sexual
violence and at their root is a need to
dominate. Examples of dominance are
present everywhere in nature and in our
culture and are always at the expense
of the submissive.
Sexual assault is a societal sickness
and stopping it means changing some
basic tenets of our society. We are working on this and changes are happening,
but it is very slow. We must take temporary measures to make at least this
campus feel safe again. I have been expressing my feelings of anger, sadness,
frustration, helplessness, etc. to many
people individually yet I feel that to do
so in a group situation would be much
more powerful. Anyone (primarily men)
who want to share feelings, thoughts,

ideas in a group please add your name
to a list outside the Peace and Conflict
Resolution Center and we will gather. In
the meantime it seems that we must
keep vigil around Evergreen by walking in groups of at least two people, constantly showing a presence. We should
be able to discourage potential sexual
violators.

no men?

Dear Evergreen Community,
I am appalled by the latest rape. I am
also dismayed by our community's reaction to it. Why do we feel the need to
respond to it by holding a "Take Back
the Night" for women and a separate
forum for men? At a time when communication seems to be of the utmost importance, why do we effectively split
ourselves into factions of "perpetrators"
and "victims"? I'm not sure exactly
what we should do, but something tells
me this isn't right.
Sincerely,
Andrew Poultridge

Dear Cooper Point journal,
I am writing this letter for two
reasons. First, I would like to respond
to the editor's note on Gary Galbreath's
last letter about cutting the Pow Wow
picture. You mentioned that the
photograph was cut because it didn't
meet certain criteria and deadlines. But
criteria and deadlines according to who's
culture? I understand the graphic
aesthetics of laying out a paper quite
well. I also know that some alternative
can be ~orked out when photos don't fit
desired dimensions, such as a reduced
xerox or photocopy of the picture.
Secondly, I am very disappointed with
your lack of respect to the passing of an
elder who was an illustrious member of
the Evergreen faculty, Lloyd Colfax.
The paper was more dedicated "in
memorium" of Little Eva Sue, the dog,
than of Lloyd Colfax. On the cover was
Little E va Sue, and the rest of the paper
was saturated with photos of this poodle. Who are we supposed to remember,
Lloyd or the poodle? Cute dog, but it
could have been saved for a later issue.
Don't you think so?
Now it's not an issue on the "dedica·
tion to cultural diversity," but one of
respect to another human being who
shared this world with you. That's all I
have to say.

I understand that the Board feels compelled to begin setting aside money for
the impending move of student offices.
Although the Board may receive some
criticism for removing $25,000 from the
allocable budget, I think this is a prudent
move. The places which the Board chose
to cut, however, make me wonder which
college the board members believe they
are serving. I also feel that the perceived need to cut is serving as a
smokescreen to obscure severe and unnecessary damage being inflicted on
some student groups.
There are several organizations whose
funding was severely cut by the Board.
The Bike Shop and the Expressive Arts
Network were eliminated. The Peace
and Conflict Resolution Center, Innerplace, and the Student Communications Center were cut by almost 50% or
more. The CPj had its proposed budget
reduced by almost 20%. The Environ~ental Resource Center and the
Lesbian/Gay Resource Center took cuts
which they feel will significantly limit
their effectiveness. These were not the
only organizations affected, but they
were among the most severely cut and
the most vocal in their opposition.
The S&A Board chose to cut or
eliminate funding for groups which are
an active and vital part of this campus.

CAB Operations Support, and S&A
Board Discretionary Fund, and not a
single one of these or related items was
cut in any way. Does the- Board feel that
the operating expenses of the S&A
bureaucracy are sacred? Maybe my ignorance is showing, but it would seem
prudent to cut back on administrative
costs and reserves when services are
threatened. If we are not careful, we
might end up with all bureaucracy and ·
no groups!
But I exaggerate. My greatest disappointment is that the S&A Board is
undennining those &Toups which provide political diversity, cultural education, and controversy; in short, those
that give personality to the campus and
which make connections between the
campus and the rest of the world. The
Board seems unable to grasp that when
the Peace and Conflict Resolution
Center works to teach people how to
speak out on serious social issues and
how to resolve conflicts In their lives, the
Center is addressing real and vital conditions of poverty, war, and physical and
sexual violence that we all face. This is
the unique aspect of student groups at
Evergreen--we may be the only state
school in the country that has total
discretion over student fees and student
autonomy in ~nning organizations.

With respect,
Pablo Bellon, Evergre~n Indian Center

cutting down

Editor,
By the age of 45, the Average
American has placed enough garbage
"on the curb" to create a pile of refuse
equal to the dimensions of the Seattle
Space Needle. Garbage.
It's easy to be better than average.
It's also less expensive.
If you cut your weekly garbage output in half and switch to a five-gallon
bucket (rather than the ten-gallon nonn),
the City of Olympia Utilities Dept. will
cut your pick-up bill from $5.00 to $1.50
per month. By recycling, composting,
etc. eventually you might be able to cut
off garbage service completely.
"Garbage" --where you gonna throw it
away~the earth is round.

eva who?

They did so for what appears to me to
be spUrious reasons. For example, Innerplace has sponsored more events this
year than any other organization, and
has done so on one of the smallest
budgets. All of the money Innerplace
uses to sponsor such events was cut
because the Board sees no connection'
between musical performances and
spirituality. I am not aware of the
reasoning behind every cut, but to gouge
organizations that all told make up a
miniscule portion of the budget (about
6%, excluding the CPj) shows a total1ack
of appreciation for the importance of
these groups to the campus.
These cuts would be easier to understand if there was an appearance of
equanimity in sharing the burden. Unfortunately, the cuts seem aimed at
selectively gutting certain portions of
the budget. The categories of Informational Service Organizations and Production Organizations, which include 14
groups, were each slashed more than
25%. Thus the Board gutted several
organizations while saving only $18,000.
At the same time, certain organizations
were given increases without, so far as
I can tell, even requesting them.
Most appalling to me is that fully 25%
of the budget is allocated to such
necessities as · S&A Administration,

s&a cuts
To the S&A Board and the campus
community:
I would like to register my disappoint·
ment and dissatisfaction with the "ten·
tative" budget that was released by the
S&A Board last week. I make this
criticism based on my work with the
Peace and Conflict Resolution Cl!!nter
and on my observations of campus
politics. This criticism is not based on a
detailed analysis of every budget submitted to the Board, but is a reflection
of the chasm that exists between my
priorities as a student and the actions
taken by the Board.

more cuts

To the Evergreen Community,
For those of you who don't know, the
Innerplace budget was gutted for next
year. It was reduced by the S&A Board
from its cQrrent level of $4818 to $2600
for next year, eliminating honorarium
funds, and travel, and reducing coordinator hours from 17 per week to 10.
In effect this move says, "Okay, you can
have an office and money for rubber
bands, but don 't produce any events"
(honorarium funds pay people to make
presentations to our community). .
This is particularly ironic in light of the
fact that this year Innerplace has produced one of the greatest number of
events on one of the smaller budgets.
What are the reasons for such a
drastic move? According to the S&A
Board, Innerplace has "No clear mission, duplicates services" and "is not a
production company."
Innerplace has a mission to support
the spiritual life of our community. It has
four goals within the mission:
1) Cross-cultural spirituality. To illuminate the many approaches to
spirituality, their differences, and their
commonalities.
2) Spirituality and Healing: To support .
the notion that spiritual growth is fundamentally connected to psycho/physical
healing.
3)Spirituality and the Arts: To support
those artistic forms which reach and
evoke the sacred within us.
4)Spirituality and Social Conscience:
To demonstrate the link between inner

growth and outer action through the coordination of public acts of service.
As should be clear, spirituality is the
thread that holds our activities together.
"Duplication of service"? With whom,
pray tell?
.
Saying that Innerplace is being sliced
up because it is "not a production company ," that spirituality should have
nothing to do with the arts, is to ignore
t he fact that in practically all cultures,
throughout history, the arts have been
a vehicle for spiritual expression and
attunement.
In light of the fact that Innerplace is
being made to pay quite heavily for
decreases in the overall S&A budget
(some groups were given more than they
requested, others went untouched), we
challenge this move. We wish to remind
all concerned students that. S&A is
yours. paid for with your funds. Make
sure it responds to your wants and
needs.
Thank You,
Austin Kelley, for I nnerplace (x6145)

still more cuts

Dear Evergreen Community,
Money for some important student
groups and services has been slashed for
next year. The Bike Shop has been cut
out entirely, and the Evergreen Van service will be cut to Sunday service only.
We will be an alternative college without
alternative means of transpOltation. Are
we all supposed to have cars for those
rainy Saturday nights?
Three of the most active student
organizations on this campus have been
heavi ly cut. The Environmental
Resource Center has been cut by 20 percent. The Peace Center, with one of the
lowest budgets already, has been cut to
two-fifths of its current budget. And In-

N

money to bring music and speakers to
this campus.
Why do we see increasing enrollment
buy shrinking student services? Twenty five thousand dollars a year will be
removed from student activity funds
beginning next year_ It will finance a
$1.5 million addition to the CAB building
for student organization offices. Student
organizations will be erected from their
present office after '1990. To my
understanding, the administration has
not offered a way out of this culdesac
and the S&A Board feels the pinch of an
emergency. It is a decision by default.
Many will be affected but only a few are
deciding_ It seems that such an expensive decision should be put to a vote of
the student body. Perhaps there are
cheaper alternatives. In any case, haste
is not the appropriate way to approach
a 1.5 million dollar business venture.
It seems that the administration
should 'fess up to the ways in which student activities money has been spent in
the past and reciprocate_ These fees
have payed for academics, for SAGA
debts, for remodeling of the bookstore
and for upkeep of the CAB. Students
kept this college going when times were
hard. At best we might be able to
understand these questionable practices
were we to nave experienced the
political pressures of that time. But at
the least we would expect the extension
of credit for the money that we extended. We covered their ass when they
were down: how about the same?
Otherwise, we, the present student
body, will suffel' attrition of our activities for a building that won't be here
until after we're gone. Those activities
are a vital part of our education and if
student activities are so crippled by this
attrition, how will the buildjng and the
student fees sel"Ve the needs that they
are supposed to?
Sincerely,
Hector Douglas

Student Survey "Invalid"
The Student Survey sponsored by
S&A for 1986-87 is completed but the
results may be largely useless.
"It is not a valid tool," said Yolande
Lake, coordinator of the Student Communication Center. Lake agreed to conduct and tally the survey when the
author, Jason Turner, left the project
The purpose of the swvey is to gather
a sense of student concerns and opinions.
The questions on this year's survey
were solicited from the community. The
results ideally should help guide the
S&A Board in their allocation decisions.
"The statement choice and wortling of
some of the questions make the survey
invalid," concluded Lake.
The SUl"Vey asked students to choose
from five responses that best describe
their feelings about student groups and
services. 'A. I know about the functions
of this service and I use it quite often.
S. I know about the functions of this service but I don't use it very much. C. I
don't know very much about this service
or its purpose. D. This service is in need
of improvement. E. I know about the
functions of thi~ service and student fees
should not be allocated for this
o rg-anization. "

organization despite the fact that they
may have little knowledge of its services. Organizations such as the
Childcare Center or the Women's
Health Care Clinic may have a wide
base of support among students who do
not use the service but support the
organization nonetheless. Many students
checked response C, however, but due
to its wording it is not clear what, if any,
conclusions can be reasonably drawn
from that response.
To ensure that the survey findings are
more accurate in the future, Lake sug-

gests changes in the manner .in which
the survey is given. "I think there
should be a random selection process, "said Lake. She added, "The
survey should be done on a personal interview basis."
The survey is one component that the
S&A uses to gather student opinion,
fulfilling their legal responsibilities as
outlined by the Washington Administrative Code concerning the expenditure of S&A funds. Others include the

Volunteer Program Begins
The new vo lunteer program at
Evergreen is designed to both assess the
needs for volunteers on campus, and to
recruit, screen, train, and monitor community volunteers for those positiors.
The program offers opportunities for
volunteers to learn new skills. gain onthe-job experience, 'and meet new
challenges.
The program bl;ngs the campus and
community closer togethel'; trust ami
mutual SUppOlt are engendered between
both volunteers and ~he people they
wOI'k with.

The needs for volunteers within the
campus comunity will change, as will the
ability of the community to respond. The
Volunteer Coordinator, will be continually re-assessing those needs and
taking them in to the community,
monitoring the activities of volunteers
on campus. If you have any questions
about the program or would like to
volunteer your time, please call Judy
McKenzie, at ext. 6428 from 8:30-4:30,

·The Real Scoop
on AIDS Testing

Evergreen
State

College

L _______________ _

There has been some confusion and
questions about AIDS testing. The
AIDS antibody test has been developed
to test for the body's reaction to the
AIDS virus in the blood stream. The test
looks for antibodies, not the virus itself
A person carrying the AIDS virus can
look and feel perfectly healthy. Only
30-40% of the people who have ' had
positive AIDS antibody tests go on to
develop AIDS.
Here in Olympia the AIDS antibody
test can be done by the Department of
Social Health and Services, located
across from Bayview Market. The test
is done by Jack Burkely. I went in to interview Jack and found him to be a very
warm and sincere person. When a person Gomes in for the AIDS antibody test,
they only see Jack. They do not ha,,:e to
sign in; they go back to Jack's office,
where they can ask Jack any questions
about the test.
Confidentiality is something that is
strongly stressed by ,Jack_ Jack does the
blood drawing himself, in the privacy of
his offi<:e. He only asks the person having the test done to sign Ii form so that
he may draw blood. ,Jack does not care
if the name that he re<.'eive.~ on this form
is fictitious or not, for the person does.
not need to show any form of identification. A $10 donation is asked for the test.
Jack will only take cash, for he feels that
checks are not confidential enough. He
takes the money up to the front himself
and the money goes in the STD (sexually tral1smitted disease) fund. After the
blood hlloS been drawn, Jack then a.~ks
the patient to.till out a lab form. '!he person will use their fIrSt, middle and
mother's maiden name initals on the
form. This way anyone reading the form
will not be able to tell who was having
the test done. The form that was signed for the blood release and the real initials from the lab form are then locked
up in Jack's desk that only he has access
to. Jack is the only one who knows the
names of any of his patients.
The test takes two weeks for the
results to come back. The person who
took the test must come for the results
in person. They are also asked to bring
someone with them for support in case

the test is positive. Jack spends some
time talking about AIDS risks and about
"Safe Sex". He may also recommend
support groups for those whose tests
'come out positive.
Currently, the Department of Social
Health and Services is booked up until
July with AIDS antibody tests.
However, Jack has kept a few spots
open for any high risk people who want
to have the test done. Who is high risk?
The Seattle-King County Health
Department of Public Health pamphlet
on The AIDS virus antibody blood test
states that the following are high risk:
• Homosexual and bisexual men, including all men who have had any sexual activity with another man or men
since 1977.
• Persons who, since 1977, have used
needles to il'\iect drugs not prescribed by
a physician, especially if the needles
were shared with other people.
• Women or men who have been pro·
stitutes at any time sim:e 1977.
• Hemophiliacs whose treatment includes replacement of blood clotting
factors.
• Pregnant women and women thinking about oocoming pregnant, if they

Some student group's budgets have
been cut and others completely slashed
in the wake of fmal allocations by the
S&A Board.
The bike shop and Thursday night
films have been eliminated from the
budget. Expressive Arts has in effect
been eliminated, although monies to
manage the student art galleries, locared
in the Library and CAB buildings reo
mains intact.
Among the organizations hardest hit
by cuts were, the Student Communications Center, Innerplace, ·the Peace
Center, CRC and the Van system.
Innerplace hag their paid staff hours
reduced from 17 to ten hours per week.
"The thing that hurts the worst is having our honorariums eliminated," said
Austin Kelly, Innerplace coordinator.
"My feeling is, if there has to be budget
cuts they should be across the board."
The Peace Center's budget felt deep
cuts in the areas of goods and services
as well as salaries. Paid staff hours were
cut from 30 hours per week down to ten,
with goods and services being cut in half.
Co-{!oordinator Eric Kuhner expects
that the center's office hours and the
number of sponsored events will suffer
the biggest cut·backs. Kuhner agrees
with Kelly in that., if cuts are necessary
they should be shared equally by all
organizations. "I think they are making
a real mistake by arbitrarily cutting
budgets," said Kuhner. "For the most
part the Board's decisions about cuts
have been politically safe."
According to Dave ' Campbell,S&A
Board, the allocations represent the
priorities of the community given the
limited resources S&A has to deal with.
Campbell cites the Strcltegic Plan, DTF
reports and the S&A survey as examples of sources the board uses to
determine budget priorities. "Cultural
diversity at this college is a number-one
priority," says Campbell. "People say
we are making safe decisions, but if we
were we would not be getting so much
flak. Salaries were earmarked for cl,lts
because the board believes that student
groups need to develop a strong
volunteer support base, rather than depend on paid staff positions," explained
Campbell. "The Board has done an excellent and a responsible job."
Not all budgets were cut, one of the

The President's AdvisCJTy Board gives
advice to President Olander an any subject which Ul broad enough to affect
several of the three basic groups which
together make up "The Evergreen CommuniJ:y"-jaculty, staff, and students. It
does not give advice on matters which
affect anly one of these groups; instead,
"pure staff concerns," "pure faculty
concerns," and "pure student cancerns, " can be lrrrYught to Olander directly, by the representatives of each group.
At the last PAB meeting, the main
items discussed were two papers which
had been circulated for comment by the
Higher Education Coordinating Board.
The flrst concerned financial incentives
for state colleges; the second dealt
broadly with higher education and the
economic and cultural life to which it
contributes. This second paper urged
closer cooperation between colleges and
industry. Although the two papers
discussed are considered non controversial by Olander, over the past
year the Higher Education Coordinating
Board has submetted other papers--on
the "role and scope of higher education,"
admissions policy, and on assessment of
educational effectiveness, both of which
are controversial and central to
Evergreen's future.

high level-- directly to the legislature.
Within a few years, its recommendations
could result in significant changes in the
way things are done here. For example,
the director of the HEC board, Robert
Thoeny, recently published an editorial
calling for mandatory testing of all
students in public general academic performance; it would probably be given in
each student's third year. It is not at all
clear how, or even if Eyergreen
students could accommodate a statewide
standardized test. Dr. Thoeny recently
visited Evergreen.
Olander's Legislative Report: The
budget allocations proposed for
Evergreen next year all look satisfac·
tory, although some proposals are bet·
tel' than others. (All state colleges would
benefit directly from a package which in·
eluded a modest tax increase.) The state
has also institutionalized a new month·
by-month accounting procedure; Jan
Lambertz pointed out that it may reo
quire Evergreen staff to spend more

time filling out paperwork for accounting
purposes, and less time serving
students. The new system is less flexible if changes need to be made within
a budget, or if unplanned expenditures
are proposed.
Nancy Taylor mentioned the
unanimous vote by faculty at the last
retreat in support of having a semester
system. (CPJ May 7, 1987, page 15) More
publicity is needed among students to
follow up on this importart and historic
vote.
At its next meeting, the PAB will
discuss the Higher Education Cordinating Board's Mission Statement--is
it compatible with Evergreen's
Strategic Plan? This is an important
topic, since it will subtly affect
Evergreen's future, and the State's
response to Evergreen, for at least the
next decade. 0
·-Submitted by Scott Buckley, student
member, PAB

I propose that I recommend to President Olander the adoption of a provisional student governance structure for
next year.
Student governance at Evergreen has
been an issue in search of resolution for
many years. In the beginning, the college envisioned students serving on all
task forces and advisory groups developing recommendations for administrative
or Trustee approval. More recently, and
partly because faculty and staff have
developed constituency-based organizational structures (classified staff union
and the faculty agenda committee),
students and the administration have
perceived a need for students to have a
more organized constituency-based voice
as well. This past year a Disappearing
Task Force (DTF) on Student Governance was charged and they issued a
report at the end of Winter quarter. The
.
report has some~ very goo d suggestions
about how tO"improve student participation in decision·making and is the result
of a great deal of hard work by the DTF.
However, the system proposed by the
DTF is costly, raises some legal issues
and needs further consultation with

sultation on the DTF report.
Student Conununications Center: Currently an S&A funded group which
would continue to coordinate communication about governance from the
student perspective.
Student Coordinators: Currently S&A
funded organization CoordinatOrs who
would help set the student agenda.
S&A Board: Would implement
through their funding decisions the

priorities identified by the Student
Agenda Committee process.
Many of you will recogriIze your own
and the ideas of others in this provisional
governance proposal. I would like to
discuss this interim proposal with as
many of you as possible. Let's talk:

Kant vs. Evergreen
Staff Member Steven Kant Questions the
Legality of His Pay

T

he college has violated state
personnel regulations, according to a civil suit recently filed in Thurston County
Superior Court. The suit addresses the
issue of staff who spend a majority of
their time teaching.
The plaintiffs, Math Lab Coordinator
Steven Kant and the Washington
Federation of State Employees, Council 28, AFL-CIO, filed the complaint
February 25,1986. The suit was scheduled to be heard March 17 and 18 of this
year when the college administration offered to negotiate a settlement. "The only action the administration has ever initiated is when we filed a court suit and
the court date was two days away." sejd
Kant.
Kant's attorney, Douglas Wyckoff,
allowed the court date to lapse in the
hope of reaching an out-of-court settlement. Wyckoff claims that since then the
college has not negotiated in good faith_
"No one seems to want to address the
problem,"added Wyckoff. Kant agrees
that no serious effort has been made to
resolve his status. "The one time t hat
they ever agreed to meet with me to
discuss settlement was a meeting I had
with Rita Cooper, Karen Wynkoop and
Rita Pougiales. I asked them if they had
authority to make an agreement and
they said no they did not," noted Kant.
"One of the conditions of settling this
whole thing was not to talk with the
media,"said Wykoff; he thinks the college is concerned that this would
"create a wave of similar claims." According to a memo written by Patrick
Hill in February 1987, "All exempt positions may be reviewed in 1987."
Kris Johansson, administrative assistant to Provost Patrick Hill. said the
Provost's office would not comment on
issures under litigation. Assistant Attorney General Jerald Anderson. who
has been assigned to represent the college. also refused comment except to say

"We deny that he (Kant) has been
treated arbitrarily or capriciously."
At this point, an out-of-court settlement appeal'S unlikely. The case is now
scheduled for December 3, 1987.
The complaint charges that the college
has acted unlawfully because Kant is
assigned academic duties without being
paid according to civil service guidelines
or <IS a faculty member. In addition to
court costs, the action asks that Kant be
awarded back pay from May 1984 to the
present.
There are two different classifications
of staff at the college. Classified staff are
civil service employees represented by
the Higher Education Personnal Board
(HEP); "exempt" employees are persons exempt from the HEP Board.
Kant was a classified employee when
he was fll'St hired in September of 1981.
He served as adjunct faculty, and in
April 1982 he was reclassed as an Instructional Technician II, still a classified
employee. The conflict began in May
1984 when Kant was reclassed as an exempt employee. At approximately this
same time the Self-Paced Learning
Center was closed and Kant was made
coordinator of the Math Skills Center.
Kant appealed his reclassification to
exempt status to the HEP Board. The
bo~d decided that he was not a
classified employee and that the board
had no jurisdiction. At this point Kant
asked to be paid according to faculty
salary guidelines. He cites Evergreen
Administrative Code 174-112-670-5 as
the basis for his reasoning: "An exempt
administrator whose job responsibilities
include substantial instructional ac-

tivities shall receive a total salary comprised of one part based on the faculty
salary guideline (EAC 174-112-550 ff_)
representing the share of his or her time
expended on instructional activities, and
one part based on the exempt administrator salary guideline (EAC
174-112-650 ff_) representing the share
of his or her time expended in administrative activities_"
Patrick Hill responded to the faculty
salary request in September, 1984 by
saying that Kant was not an exempt administrator but instead an administrative exempt employee and
thereby not entitled to faculty salary.
"It seems that you may have, as do most
of us, confused the category of exempt
administrator with administrative exempt," wrote Hill.
Kant responded that the EAC's
language does not support that type of
interpretation as it refers to all exempt
employees a..-.; both ·administrcltive exempt and exempt admini.~trator, making
no distinction between the two.
The following month Hill wrote
another memo to Kant outlining three
options: "1. To decide that all persons
such as you should be paid in the faculty scale. 2. To evolve a new category of
employment for persons such as you,
with or without faculty status. That new
category would have its own pay Reale.
3. To leave things as they are, after
removing the ambiguities of language in
our EAC." Hill also states in the memo
that he will appoint a study group to
work out "a clarification of issues that
have remained muddy for a long while."
One administration official who,
throughout the controversy, has maintained that the two different classes of
exempt personnel both exist is Rita
Cooper, director of employee relations.
Cooper admits that the EAC's language
is not precise. "You can see how one
could get confused," said Cooper, "if you
read the language without knowing the

background or context in which it was
written and its application." Kant
claims, "the only people that have ever
claimed to lutve heard of two categories
of exempt staff say Rita Cooper told
them it exists."
The study group appointed by Patrick
Hill presented their findings in
December of 1984. The academic deans
who served on the study group, John H.
Perkins and Barbara Smith, researched
the issue thoroughly and outlined the
two conflicting interpretations of Kant
and Cooper. The pair came to this conclusion: ''Whether it was intended to do
so or not, EAC 174-112-670-5 must apply to Kant because we can find no legal
definition that allows us to separate "exempt administrator" from "administratively exempt." They added
"Cooper's argument is a reasonable inference of what the Washington Administative Code and EAC may have intended. Nonetheless, to allow reasonable
inferences to prevail over the obligation
for rules to be clear and explicit is unacceptable because it is unfair . to
employees, who are expected to abide
by the law."
The issue floated around and in April
of 1985, Barbarcl Smith wrote in 'another
memo that the issues involved required
faculty discussion and proposed that a
DTF be formed the following fall
quarter. "The Deans and Provost
became convinced, after considerable
discu8..'1ion," writes Smith, "that Steven
(Kant) tlhould have some type of neW ·
staff/faculty ~tus because of the type
of work he does. "
The DTF released it." I·eport · in
January of 198(>' Among their findings
were exampletl of severcll ongoing situatiom; at the college which in their opinion constituted a violation of WAC
174-128-010 where it states that anyone
who is responsible for generclting credit
must be a member of the faculty. The
DTF suggested, as did the earlier study
group, that a new category of Associate
Faculty be established.
In June of the same year, Smith sent
the DTF findings to the Faculty Agenda Committee. In July, .K ant received a
memo from Hill's assistant, Kris Johannson. "I learned some things which
Patrick asked me to pass along to you,"
wrote Johannson. She outlined three
points. "(1) He and the deans accept the
June 4 recommendation of the faculty in
all its financial respects. (2) When Karen
Wynkoop returns from her vacation in
late August, she will draft contracts for

It

.

;1

you ... (3) The new status will go into effect this fall."
In the fall Kant received a memo from
Hill that stated he had accepted the
DTF's recommendations except for the
"rationale" the DTF used to determine
salary. Hill, because of his determination
that "the positions in question are 75
percent as demanding" as regular faculty duties, outlined a salary schedule
which is 75% of faculty pay. Kant's
salary calculated this way was slightly
lower than his existing salary. Hill
writes: "However, since it is not our
policy to lower salaries, your salary will
remain at the 1985-86 level..."
Hill explained the discrepancies between his memo and the earlier memo
Kant received from his assistant in a
deposition given on November 11, 1986
to Kant's attorney.
Hill refers to Johannson's memo as being inaccurate, that it concerns a
meeting Johannson was not present at
and that he never dictated the memo or
knew of its existence until Kant brought
it to his attention. "She's reporting on
what she thought she heard me say,"
testified Hill.
During all this time, while the study
group and DTF met, throughout the entire controversy, Kant received
numel-ous contracts and salary
guidelines. The most creative was by
Academic Dean, John Perkins. It paid
Kant on a dual system based on an administt-ative scale and 80% of faculty
scale. "They set up an incredibly complicated plan where they paid me different percentages for different weeks
retroactively," Kant said. "Decisions
have been made. Patrick Hill will write
a memo saying this is what your salary
will be, we will change it retroactively,
and they never happen."
By fall of 1986 when the Faculty Agenda Committee was tackling the issue of
staff teaching and whether a new
category of faculty should be formed, it
appeared a resolution might be in sight.
However, the agenda committee was
concerned about creating a category of
faculty that would be paid on a different
salary scale. They presented a proposal
which attempted to define the distinctions of a staff/faculty position, including
salary, accountability and status. ''We
thought this was a reasonable position,"
recalls Matt Smith, chair of the committee. "We made a recommendation to
Patrick Hill and the deans and they did
not accept it."
In a memo Hill wrote to Kant on

February 3. 1987, he cited quite a different conclusion: "As you know, the
Agenda Committee of the Faculty has
withdrawn its recommendation to me
concerning the definition and implementation of the category of Staff/Faculty
which we hoped might clarify the status
of you and your co-workers." Matt
Smith said of Hill's statement, "That is
not true." Matt Smith contends that
while the committee did not give complete approval of the immediate implementation of the category they did
not withdraw its recommendation. Soon
the issue was dropped, and shortly
thereafter the suit was filed and all
discussion stopped.
This whole issue of staff who teach
continues to be, in Matt Smith's words,
"a free-floating lame duck." Furthermore, this is not just an issue for Ste'.'en
Kant. There are numerous staff
members, classified and exempt, who
spend a majority of their time teaching.
Even after this issue is decided in the
courts a more far-reaching question will
remain.
Why did this dispute need to wind up
in court? Kant claims he was reluctant
to bring legal action but merely wanted
someone to come to grips with the issue.
"I've waited several years before going
to court because it is not something I
wanted to do," says Kant.
One question the courts will not be
able to answer is: Why after three yeal'S
of study groups, DTFs and Dean's
reviews has this essentially minor labor
dispute not been dealt with?O

"Growth for the sake of \~
growth alone is the
ideology of
a cancer cell."
--Bertrand Russell

There is an ideology
shared by the leaders of
industrialized countries
across the political and
economic spectrum-from communist to
capitalist_ Industrialism holds "growth"
up as the gospel: the given True Way. It
simplifies economics by limiting debate
to that which fits within math formulas,
mocking the living and interconnected
world it draws from. It tends toward
centralization of power, turning us into
cogs in a bigger and bigger machine.
Under this system, we have so lost
touch with our moral authority that we
watch as planetary life systems break
down. We may be the last generation
with the opportunity to rebel and
rebuild, so it is ('ritical that we confront
industrialism ~ life-denying.
This dissection of life relations can be
traced toward certain historical roots.
Aristotle, in laying the foundation for
modem taxonomic classification, divided species into categories and arranged
them hierarchically, with the "lower"
forms existing for the sake of the
"higher" forms. Humans, of course,
stood at the pinnacle of the pyramid.
This view echoed the theme in Genesis
of man's subjugation and control of
nature.
For Pythagoras, the order of nature
could only be disclosed through rational
quantitative descriptions. The idea progressed with Descartes who, in quest of
the true essence of "a thing as such,"
dissected a bee hive to its chemical

parts, imbuing the divided object with
meaning, rather than the whole in which
the hive plays its natural part.
The ue-:>lillCl.llICliI.1UlI U1 we anti. fracturing of contextual wisdom proceeded
with the increasing size of organizations,
and increasing job specialization. The
prophets of industrialism contend that
hierarchy and concentrated power exist
because it is more efficient that way.
Things are mass-produced more quickly and cheaply by large organizations in
which every process is divided and subdivided. Everyone specializes in doing
one thing, or else in supervising those
who do one thing_
In the industrial society, most people
find their working life defined by the top
dogs, and must resign themselves to carrying out particular parts of a grand
scheme which holds little meaning for
them beyond survival_ The human
worker was reduced to a mechanical
part to be manipulated and played otT
against others so that true maximum
productivity could be achieved_
One way the industrial ideology has
succeeded in this country is by steering
us away from commitment to a particular place, encourdging us instead to
move from here to there in pursuit of
higher pay and personal status. With
each move there is a break of continuity, a repudiation of relationships_ The
natural insights and social network of
support, so highly evolved in indigenous \
cultures, find no stability in which to
develop.
The larger the industrial network
becomes, the more abstract are the individual's relationships to food, clothing,
shelter, and community. The tragedy is
that without clear understanding of
where the physical necessities are coming from, or the conditions under which
they were processed, personal moral
authority over our most basic relations
to the world is lost.

The industrial machine, an assemblage
driven by the ethic of growth, proceeds
in direct opposition to the interests of
future generations. Resources are
devoured at an increasingly feverish
pitch with the rate of extraction having
long since outstripped natural regeneration. In essence, it's as though we steal
. the food off our childrens' plates.
Our lives are filled with ecological warning signals. These macro-crises represent the cumulative impact of a thousand
smaller violations. Who among us has
not been scarred by the felling of a
favored forest or the filling of a muchloved marsh? An ideology that has no
sensitivity to values not easily quantified
is an anti-life ideology, for the lasting
flavors and riches of life cannot be con- .
scripted into numerical equations.
Faced with dilemmas caused by our
alienation from the living system, we
ironically choose responses that are in
themselves abstracted from the basic
natural process. The governing ideology
exhorts us to trust that there is a
technological fix to every technological
problem.
It is frightening to note that aa humandominated landscapes proliferclte and
the pace of human interaction accelerates, the humbling, magical, mindblowing power of unmolested nature is
consistently being degrclded, jm~t a.'1 we
are in most urgent need of its mes.'lages.
In the natural life-flow of any pal'ticular reJ.,rion, an exceptional divel'Hity
of organisms weave an equilibrium of
sorts, a balance, in which each ha.'i a
"role" to'Play- So,too,with people. Each
of us liveH with a different set of relationH, and are moved to TeHpond to a different cry_ Only by harnes.'iing the full
Hpectrum of our diversity can the immense and complex problem!l we fat"e be
overcome.
We've got to recapture context', begin
to know and love some place. We're called upon to both patiently rebuild, evermindful of the big picture, and to
fearlessly defend the sacred things in
life--wilderness, human dignity, the
future.
We are compelled to listen-to the land,
to each other, and to that inner spark of
inspiration each of us feels now and then.
From our inherent matrix of creativity,
courage, discipline and humor can forge
a path of hope;

Iwvcr Hee.ln short, there are few pl'Oducls left that do not contribute in one
way or another to the creation of hazardouH chemicalH.
And what are we contributing to?
How about 43 million metric tons of
hazarclouH waste (in 1981) eHtimated to
increa.'1e at an annual rate of 3.4%. Add
to thiH the roughly 700 million tonH of
chemical Watlte produced 8ince 1950, and
we've got a big problem.
It'H not like we can just stuff it into
the ground and forget about it. The
government says that landfill containment is not permanent, and leaks are inevitable.
The
waste
travels
underground, getting into the plants and
up through the food chain, and into our
water sources and our bodies, including,
our chromosomes. What effects these
chemicals will have on us, our children,
and other organisms exposed to them

are largely unknown. Maximum "acceptable" contamination levels are
e8tabli8hed for only 22 of the m'o st common 300 chemical8 found at Superfund

everywhere. No one really knows how

So what are we to do? The pervasiveness and value of products whose
byprorluct8 constitute the probl~m

standardS of liability and contamination
levels and strict enforcement of hazardous waste disposal regulations. By forcing producers to pay for handling these
wastes in the safest manner that is possible, a price which is closer to the real
cost of the product will result. The
higher prices will serve to promote the
development of safer substitutes and a
reduction of demand for the products
that put us at risk. Indeed we are at
great risk if it is true that 60-90% of
cancer deaths are caused by environmental exposure ,to che~icals'_ 0

X: The War Within is Won
Baby X: La
Guerre Dedans, a
theater piece shown
this weekend on
campus, deserves a
standing ovation_
Written
and
directed by Leslie
Myers as a senior
thesis project, it
was the most movand professional
student performance I have seen
at Evetgreen.
The performance
used acting, dance,
fIlm and music to
explore the repression of incest and
the healing that
takes place when
the repressed pain
is. remembered and
acknowleged.
The script and
composition

were delicate and compassionate, caJr
turing the emotional power of the
trauma without being overdone or saJr
py_ Better yet, the performance did not
just fill the audience with the pain and
then leave it there, but closed on a note
of self discovery and power.
The main character, Baby, was played
by two people: Kelly Mills was Baby
herself, and Lexie Ladd played X,
Baby's inner "troll," the part of her
psyche that was carrying the repressed
memory. Acting in the first scene
started off rather dead , but that aside
Mills and Ladd both gave brilliant performances, and Tom Naught stole the
show and added a welcome laugh as the
drunk disco dude. Kahlil Shabazz did an
adequate job as Baby's boyfriend, but
his inexperience chaffed next to the professionalism of the other performers.
Janet Thomas, as Baby's unmemorable
friend , did an unmemorable job, but
perhaps that was intentional.
It is notable that Ladd and Shabazz
had never acted before, and Thomas'
former training was miniJnal. In addi-

tion, the entire cast and staff were
volunteer.
La Guerre Dedans is French for "the
war within." Myers used dream sequences and the character X to portray
what was going on inside Baby's head,
which gave the audience an appreciation
for the psychological changes Baby was
experiencing. The experimental approach was unique yet accessible for
viewers who had only been exposed to
traditional theater.
.
Baby's dreams and fantasies were
presented through 16mrri fIlm on a
backdrop, music, and monologues
delivered by Mills-which were, incidentIy, some of the most inspired acting in
the piece_
Some music was taped, but composers
Kelly Smith, Barbara Zelano and Steve
Mazepa also played live. The acoustical
environment rounded out the liminality
of the space, and I found myself completely involved with the emotions of the
scene.

young as three they managed to control
these intimidating tools. Within SIX
weeks we had the playhouse built and
installed.
Since in stalling the playhouse I
haven't been working at the Childcare
Center, so it is only through the reports
of others that I have learn~d \\jhat feeling the space offers these childrim. I was
told that during the first d.ays after the
structure's installation the children did
nothing but play jail, taking friends and
teachers alike hostage. Wonderful. (An
interesting quelition comes up. If van
del' Leevw's thoughts are relevant-which I think they are--is a jail a house
of God? Does it depend on whether it's
our jail or the children's jail?)
But in the past months it seems new
uses' have been found for the playhouse.
I climbed inside to inquire with its

residents as to what these uses might
be.
"We play haunted house."
" And ...duplex!"
"And Santa Claus' house."
" And the Easter Bunny's house."
"Once I saw a real Easter Bunny_"
"The real Easter Bunny died; he had
a heart attack."
"The real Santa Claus died too; he also
had a heart attack."
"N 0 he didn't- he gave me presents at
Christmas."
Many thanks to all of you who helped
in this undertaking, including friends,
the Parent Center, and Lumbermen's
and Olympia Supply, both of whom gave
us some pretty good deals. Come by the
Childcare Center, if you like, and see the
results 'of our building. 0

private space. I recall vividly the in viting and protective feelings of enclosed space, whether underneath tahles,

enough, of course, I began making these
spaces myself. Treehouses were possible in any tree large enough to climb.

several walls and a roof. When I was too
old for forts I began helping an eighty
year old man build with stone, cement

house as part of a larger community

In the spirit of such spaces, and the
fantasy and security they invoke , I

in CAB or building away in the basem'ent of the library building. For some

to share some of the skills that, at five,
