The Servica andActivities F- Reviltw
Board (S&A) madt drHtic cuts in the
·79.·50 ServicH budget al the Wednesday.
May 16 meeting. The cuts wtte made to
off~ the rising costs of operating the
Campus Activities Building <CAB) and the
College Recreation Center (CRC). Th" ~
the third year that ,tudent
groups
budgets have been seriously cut to
accomodate the CAB and CRC. One
observer noted that, even if enrollment
grows by 100 ful) time students per year,
the CAB and CRC operations buc!Jlet will
consume all Sat.A funds within a decade.
A substantial
portion of this money
comes from tuition fees.
This year's allocation process differs
greatly from last year's colltttive approach. Last year, groups in each budget
catagory (Service, Humon Rights, etc.
met together. with and without the
Board, to determine where cuts could best
be made. Groups worked
together
, coo~tively.
and commonly yie-ldrd to
othen whose needs they perceived to be
greater than their own. Also, and
Evergrttn faculty member, student, or
staff who attended the lull day of budget
hearings was able to participate fully
in the decision-making process.
This year the Board set preliminary
target percentages, instead of relying on
the collective procedure. Those wishing to
particip,ite also found it difficult lo obtain
information. as only six packets of the
budgets we.re available..
On the. whole, the prepresentative of
the budgeted groups came to the mtttlng
well p_,-ed
with lists of prioritized cuts .
Alter hearing and approving the suggested
cuts, thf" Bo-.-rd"beganto luok dtetjR1 h,10
th• budgets in ordtr to push the Servias
budget below the original target figure of
$74,000.
At the May 9 S&A mttting, Human
Rights groups stated they could not
survive. the cuts that the Board had
outlined for them. The Board then qreed
to abandon its original target perttntages
in order to give Human Rights the
surplus.
The Board then began 5CfUlinizins the
budgets to find more po11ible _cuts.
Equipment Checkout qreed to raae its
outdoor equipment checkout ftt1 and to
sell tennis, hand, and racquet balls at
boolutore prices. A propooal lo charge
for indoor equipment checkout was
abandoned.
Other cuts were nade without too
much controversy until it was suggested
that the Women's Health Oinic increase
it:5 minimum charge from St to $1.50
Observers
objecte,d to widening the
financial gap between men's health care,
which is provided fre.e by the school, and
women's ht-alth care, which u~rs must
pay for. Some Board members and others
thought
that the $300 increase
in
estimated revenue overrode such arguments. After much heated discussion, a
three~to-three. tie was broken by S&A
Coordinator BiU Hucks, defeating the
fee. increase.
The Board •lso dtcided to cut liability
insurance allocations
for the Clinic's
Women's Health Care Specialist. The
rationale for this move paralleled the
argument against raising the minimum
fee: if men's health can is paid for by the
school, then the school can also be
upected to pay for the Clinic's liability
insurance..
The bus system was granted 51000 fr':'m
housing. These monies were happily
struck from their budget request. The bus
service is also applying for funds from the
administration and the Department of
TraNportation.
. .,
Th~ Driftwood Daycare Centers request for funding for more teachers to
accomodate the trn families now on a
waiting list was denied.
Driftwood
receives 40 percent of its funding from
Sa.A and 20 percent from fees. But
Driftwood has had trouble collecting its
agrttd upon 40 percent from aca~ics.
Instead of inett.Uing S.,A allocattons to
cover the Driftwood request. the Board
voted to increase ftts for those who use
the service, mostly low-income single
mothers who ...,_,.~
• .to ~
Driftwood's fees haven't bttn rHied in the
last two yean.
&ginning the second round of cuts,
the Board eliminated funding for the
Duckhouse. The CPJ, which had already
agreed to forgo its summer publicati~
and two of five liltttn hour/week pa.td
positions qreed to consider striking is
typesetting budg,et and to explore other
alternatives. Since specific dollar amounts
could not be determined
for CP)'s
typesetting alternatives and oth~r suggesled budget cuts, it wH deaded to
coinplete the budget next week after
researching the pouibilities.
At the end oEthe meeting. the fact that
the Services budgets were not going to
total lesa than the target figure became
by Alexis Jetter
Recent picketing of the Conestoga
Roadhouse in downtown Olympia has
drawn criticism from local legislators,
who claim that the actions may endanger
Evergre.en's funding.
Pickets on the
evening of April 28, May 4, and May 5,
protesting
management
treatment
of
women and gays, (se-e April 26 issue of
the CPI) were assumed to be Evergrttn
inspired-specifically,
organized by the
campus Gay Resource Center. Both
Representatives
Ron Keller and State
Senator Del Bosch have voiced criticism
of the protests.
R~. Keller was concerned about the
"timeliness" of the picketing, saying that
"every time the Evergreen budget comes
up, there's some issue. that pops up at
Evergrttn . . . and a lot of members are
not that fond of the college." When
questioned, Keller said he had "glanced at
the article" in the CPJ but didn't know lhe
details.
Senator Bosch was more iratf', and
according to one source, tel~honed Les
Eldridge, Assistt1nt to President Evans, to
complain about the Conestoga picket.
According to Shirley Wayland, Bosch's
secretary, Bosch had been id contact with
Jerry Craig, owner of the Conestoga, "but
only to arrange details of the rKeption."
Bosch had his wedding reception at the
Conestoga Roadhouse on May 12. The
senator is presently on his honeymoon
a.nd cannot be reached for comment.
Apparently,
the legislators and Les
Eldridge were under the impression that
Evergreen student groups organized the
clear. The Board then asked each group if
it had the wherewithal! to do a fundraiser
if it had to sustain further cuts. Most
agreed that this was possible.
At the May 23 S&A meeting, the
funding of Human Rights groups was
discussed. In response to the Board's
original target of $11,000 (four percent of
all the monies available), most of the
Human Rights groups formed a coalition.
This group met during a break in the
meeting, in order to unify their stand
against excessive cuts the Board might
make in their budgets.
At the meeting, the budgets were
scrutinized for any possible cuts, and
most groups showed a willingness to
shave large amounts off of their original
requests. After caucusing during the
momilJ&. tlil cQi)j_tion t02k ~ .>.tarulthat
they had cut as much as their operations
could bear. They stated that any further
cuts would be unacceptable, and they
reiterated that they would withdraw their
requests and pursue legal avenues,
including a suit which could force the
Board to allocate minimum amounts to
the Human Rights groups. The groups are
also coruidtring a student strike in the laU
if their demands are not met.

You progressed. The quality of the

occured and were dealt with. Mistakes
were made, but they weren't covered up.
Tht'y were shared and learned from. The
whole process of putting a paper together

Of course you've had your detractors.
Some have had valid criticisms; others,

Communications
Scholarship for
TESC Grad
To the Editors,
After reading, with some embarr.1ssmen t, the article in the last CP).
"'Hollywood and Vietnam," which I was
credited
for writing,
l felt some
explanation was in order. First of all, I
take no responsibility for the article sina
what was printed was a heavily garbled
version of what I wrote. Admittedly,
much of the printed article didn't even
make sense. In one important part, the
second half of a sentence that opens a
paragraph is missing, as is all of the
following sentence and the first half of the
next sentence after that (which was
supposed to be in parenthrses). The result
was an incoherent jumble of connected
phrases with the main points missing. In
several other places, sentences that were
supposed to appear before stuff in
parentheses were inexplicably omitted and
the stuff that was supposed to be in
parentheses had none. Then in other
parts, words and phrases were changed so
that the meaning was changed to
something I had never intended. Even
worse yet, the article wasn't even
supposed lo h.ave been printed in the first
place.
Oringally, I wrote a lengthy article
entitled "The Vietnam Syndrome-Hollywood Comes Out of the Mire" (I don't
know where "Hollywood and Vietnam"
came from) that supposed.Jy was going to
be published as a three-part series. Part
One was to appear in the April 26 "Arts"
issue. but was bumped for an article on
Gonorrhea or something. Since there were

then only two issues of the CPJ left for
the quarter, I told the editors to scrap the
whole series and I'd do a rewritten
article on just The Dea-hunter instead.
Later, I was told that there would be
no room for such an article in the next
{May 10) issue, so I didn't tum anything
in. A messed up version of the first third
of "The Vietnam Syndrome" had ~
viously been typeset, and I was quite
surprised when I opened the May 10
edition and saw it there. Although there
were only two issues left .anyway, thetT
was no indication that the printed article
was only pa.rt of a series. Instead, it was
printed as if it was a complete article.
This kind of frustrating
thing has
happened before with my short reviews in
the "Calendar," but I n~..- felt that it
was major enough to point out with a
letter to the editors. However, it's a
different matter when a large article with
my name on the byline is published
without my consent or knowledge,
exp,cially when it's garbled to the point
that it makes me look like a fool. (When
you know what the article was supposed
to say, you're even more aware of the
mistakes.) I may be a fool (the fact that
I'm stiU going to write for the CPJ might
establish that), but if I'm going to make a
fool of myse~, I'd prefer to do it with
something I reaUy wrote.
Yours for the works,

Earn Honors
Five student poets have urned top
honors in the 1979 Carol and Herb Fuller
Poetry Contest.
Capitol High School student Jenifer
Joan Young took the top priu for works
submitted by students from Thurston and
Mason County high schools. Winners
from The Evergrttn State College <livision
included students David Joyner, Sally
Anderson and Patrice Camm.ick, who
shared a three--way tie for second place,
and Moira Belch..- who claimed first place
in the collegiate category.
The five were honored Wednesday,
May 16, at a reading of their works at the
Gnu Deli restaurant
in downtown
Olympia. Both the Fullers, who annually
donate funds for the contest, were on
hand to congratulate the winners.
The contest, this year chaired by
Evergreen Faculty Member Dr. Craig
Carlson, is offered to "encourage the
composition of poetry and to recognize
the achievement of student poets," he
says.
Thi:, year the quality of work submitted
from throughout the area was superior,"
he adds. "Choices for the judges were
agonizing to make."
Serving as judges of this year's contest
were Dr. Charles Teske, Evergrttn faculty
member in literature;
Molly Phillip,,
TESC graduate and current legislative
analyst for the Office of the Council of
State College and University Presidents:
Rusty North, Evergreen alum, artistprinter and poet; and Cal Kinnear, ~dancrr and owner of the Word of Mouth
Bookstore.
Corrections
In the May 10 front page a.rticle, "Cuts
Cause Controversy." I wrote that an
executive session of the SkA Board on
May 9 was "apparently in violation of the
Open Meetings Act, as well as the
Coven.ant on Govem.ince (COG) and the
Social Contr.ict."
This statement
is
erroneous. I'm sorry.
Pam DuJenberry
In an article in the May 10 issue, I
wrote that Jeff Kelly was being favored
for the Dean position. This statement is
no longer valid, bec.iuse the whole review
process is being redone, due to a request
of the Affirmative Action Office. - &,,

To the Editors,
Sometimes it seems as if the various
branches of bureaucratic
bullshit at
Evergreen strive to outdo each other, in
inconveniencing the students. Recently.
Housing has made a crowning achievement towards this end. All dorm residents
have been notified they must be out of
their room, by June 8, the end of the last
week of Spring quarter. Those students
who wish to live: in the dorms over the
summer may begin occupa.ncy on June 16,
the beginning of the following wttk. The
purpose of this is obviously to give the
students as much hassle as possible. What
do they expect us to do in the interim, I
would like to know7 Perhaps we should
camp out in the courtyard wh~e Housing
gets its shit together. But what to do with
our belongingsl I have a suggestion to
solve the problem. Why doesn't everyone
who intends to stay in the dorms for the
summe.r le.ave all their belongings in the
Housing Offia, for the wttk of June 9,
and we can have a week long party in the
courtyud while Housing cleans upl If you
like this idea, just bring your stuff up to
Housing when you go to check out. If
you don't like it, call Housing and
complain I
Sincerely yours, Disgusted

Poetry Book
A handprinted book of selected poelry
from the 1978 Fuller prize poem collection
was completed for presentation to the
Fullers, and on May 16 at the Gnu Deli,
the book was presented and the 1979
prize winners announced.
The book
represented many hours of painstaking
work by students Ben Alexander and
Rachel Katz, as part of their experience in
the Poets Press module.
About 200 copies were completed and
will be available for purchase on campus
soon. The production of such a beautiful
edition of the work of Evergreen poets
Teya McElroy, Rob Fromm, and Daniel
Hathaway (and high school winner David
Youtz) does credit to the poets and the
craftspersons, Ben and Rachel, who gave
their work a printed form.
An edition of the I 979 Fuller Priu

sessions of the Poets Press. Other Poets

Proposed Changes
at TESC
Pam Dusenberry
Evergreen is in for aome serious
revamping if the recommendations currmtly being reviewed by the faculty att
implemented. The ·groups charged with
studying and rnpon<ling to the Council
for PostHcondary
Education's ')CPE(
recommendations have completed their
tasks and an, in the process of praenting
their proposals
to the faculty for
endorwment.
., .
The groups stuaying Graduation Requittments and Definition of Oegrtts,
First Year Requirements, and Curricular
Predictability and Carttr Pathways worked closely together, thoug~ they are
presentingseparate
reports. These groups
are the ones considering
the overall
structure of Eve.rgrttn's rurriculum. Thrir
proposals,
if and when ratified, will
probably have the most wide ranging
effects of all the proposed change.
GRADUATION REQUIREMENTSAND
DEflNTTION OF DECREES
Memben of this study group <lid not
agree on a unified position.
They
published two reports, on• representing
the student members' position, the other,
the faculty's. Action has not yet been
taken on either.
Two positions att presented in the
faculty's report regarding graduation
n,quirements. Some faculty memben ,_
Provost Youtz's proposal, n,quiring fint
year students to tab a basic coordinated
stu<lies program, u reasonable. Their
report stat,s, "Coordinated studies an, the
be.st means we have for cambating
oversp,cialiutlon and for achieving some
dexrtt of liberal education."
The other J)OOltiontahn by the faculty
is that coordinated studin should not be
required, but should be emphuiud
throualt ac1vis· .
Advising is
focus of the studmt
rnemben' report. By r,qulring advising.
rather than a method of study, Evergn,en'semphasis on ..U-dittcted luming
is preserved.
"Education is a unique
pracaa to each student, not a standardiad one," the students report says. It
then outlines a four year advi1in1
schedule that all students would be
n,qutnd to follow,
Anotller point ol contention belwftn
th, student and faculty proposals conams the offering of a speda)ized degree
within each Sptclalty Atta. The faculty
support this. It would mean that 45 to 90
quarter houn of the 180 required for
graduation would have to be urned
within one area In order to receive that
area's degrtt. The current Evttgl'ftn B.A.
and B.S. would still be available.
The student members oppose the
offering of Specialty Atta degrtts because
th... a.gr- would be misleading to
employers and others. Though each
"'3;.
student would be required to earn a
certain number of their quarter hours
within a Specialty Area, the content of
thoee quarter hour, would vary greatly
from student to studmt. The same degree
would represent a very wide variety of
courses of study. The students swuz:est
that only the general Evergreen d,gn,es be
oftettd.
The students' report does not present a
stand on Provost Youtz's proposal of a
required culmination project. The faculty
propose that all students sttking a degrtt
from Evergreen complete some piece of
work that demonstrates compete.nee in
doing advanced work. This could be a
project completed in a student's third or
fourth year of study. The requirement
could also be fulfilled by the successful
completion of an advanced level program
or contract.
FIRST YEAR REQUIREMENTS
Students and faculty of the First Year
Requirements study group agree with the
Graduation Requirements group that basic
coordinated
studies should
not be
required of first year students. Their
reasons are somewhat different, however.
Basic coordinated studies do not consistently provide basic skills training and
orientation
to Evergreen. "Until it is
obvious that they will !provide th...,),"
their report states, "it makes little sense to
require them of fint year students."
The objectives of bt1sic coordinated
studies programs, and how to achieve
them, are the emphases of the report. The
memben propose these objectives as the
criteria by which basic programs should
be designed and judged as successful or
not.
CURRICULAR PREDICT ABILITY AND
CAREER PATHWAYS
In th, May 9 faculty meeting, reports
from both the student and faa,lty study
groups on this topic wue heard. On, of
the .authors of the faculty's
report
commented that th, Intent of the faculty's
-rt
is to chaAA, the basic curricular
structuff of th, College very little, while
still mttting th, minimum dictates of the
CPE mandate to establish mor, predictability.
The student study group hu developed
a ''Preliminary Position Statement" in
response to the faculty's report. While the
student report agrees with the general
need for more structutt and predictability
in th, curriculum, it finds that '1nstituting
th, predictability mechanisms proposed
by (the faculty] might
engender an
unwanted, perhaps unintended, influence
on the philosophy and psychology (and
hence the practice) of learning at TESC."
The six:-~
report goes on to critique
the faculty's twelve recommendations,
eight of which they agrtt with. The
students rejected two recommendations
which propose the adoption
of the
semester system and the institution of
Specialty Area degrees (which bear
n,quittments). The students also find two
rtt"ommendations in need of modification.

of an evolutionary
approach to program design would do

away with the present system of yearly
redesign of the curriculum. Second, the
faculty propose that the Specialty Areas
be primarily responsible for CUTTiculum
planning, which would include long range
(four-year) planning and the power to set
prerequisites for their offerings.
The student report voices concerns
about potential ''departmentalization" and
rigidity of the curriculum.
It states,
however, that its paramount concern is
that some new procedures for curriculum
planning be developed, particularly ones
aimed at increasing student participation.
The students are currently developing
specific suggestions for new methods of
curriculum planning.
The student group has met frequently
with the faculty one and larger faculty
groups
in order
to influence
the
Curricular
Predictability
and Career
Pathways proposal. How effective this
influence has been will be seen when their
recommendations com.e up for a full
faculty vole next Wednesday, May 30.
Gearing
Up for
COGIV
by Pippa Coily
fhe student 6tudy group focusing on
student involvement in decision makin~
and curriculum planning was created
during Symposium '79. Originally there
were separate groups for decision making
and curriculum planning, but due to lack ,
of student
involvement
they were
oombined into the above study group.
The group
has been meeting
on
Wednesday mornings, at 9: 30 on the
third Aoor of CAB.
The group's objectives can be outlined
in four points. First, to facilitate
communicatioA
between
students,
administration, faculty, and staff; !i«Ond,
to •get more students
involved
in
curriculum planning; third, to propose a
method of formulating student concerns,
ideas, and nesponses; and finally, to
create an information network th.at can
collect and dispe.-.. information, po,oibly
at the program level.
The study group's activities have
culminated with a paper outlining the
proposals that haw been discussed. The
p;ip,r also describes problems that were
difficult to work out, such as how student
interest groups (i.e., the Women's Center,
Ujamu, the Native· Amerk..... Student
Association,
and others)
can be
represented on the Evergreen Council.
Hopefully, th• fruits of the study
group's mtttings will be utilized In the
COG IV (Coven.int on Govern.ince)
review which should get started in the
fall. COG IV doesn't outline any form of
student organization for the selection of
Evergreen Council members. In other
words, the document
explains the
function of the Council, but not how its
members are cho9'n, what groups they
represent, or how student concerns are
transmitted to the Council, R.ither than
making recommendations for changie in
the Evergreen
Council's
operating
procedUttS, the study group focused on
developing a way for students to get their
opinions-~s-to-the
CoundHn:
the fint place.
The study group interviewHI people
(administrators, faculty members. staff,
3
and students) who are familiar with
Evergreen and its resources. This information helped educate the group on the
problems of student involvement
at
Evergreen. The proposal as conceived by
the student study group is as follows.
One student per seminar would commit
themselves to attend meetings by specialty
areas. AJI students should be encouraged
to attend. Basic and annuaJ programs
each would be equivalent to a specialty
area. These groups would work closely
with faculty in developing curriculum.
supporting student involvement in everyday program planning, and coordinating
events between programs.
Persons from the specialty area groups
would form another
group at the
institutional
level (the Coordinating
Group, for lack of a better title). It would
sponsor such things as Orientation Week,
and perhaps a quarterly symposium on
governance" or curriculum. The Coordinating Group
would facilitate
the
development
of student
issues and
concerns, and would support student
involvement at the institutional level. A
close liaison with an infonnation center
would be essential. One to two full-time,
paid, non-student staff members would be
hired to gather and disperse infonnation
10 the different
groups. The public
relations job of the current infonnation
booth in CAB would be replaced by an
active information network.
Representativ~ from this Coordinating
Group would need to attend every
Evergreen Council meeting, and student
members on the Council would attend the
Coordinating group meetings. The study
groups found this process more desirable
than selecting Evergreen Council members
from the Coordinating Group because of
the large time commitment involved and
the need to rotate responsibilities within
the community.
The possibility
of
awarding academic credit to students
active in the Coordinating Group should
be considered.
Kttp in mind this is a proposal. A
noteworthy concept built into this student
network is its function of cornrmmin1tion
rather than decision making. In other
words, it is meant to fgcilitate communication for CUTTiculumplanning and other
decisions that need to be made, in
accordance with COG IV, with input
from the people whom those decisions
will affect.
What we need right now is for students
to meet, discuss the proposals, and be
ready for the COG IV review in the fall.
The stu~t
study group members are
Kari Brown, Rob Fellows, Peter Olsen,
Bob de Laubenfels, Rachel Katz, Martha
Turner, and Pippa Coily, who would all
like to discuss the study group's activities
with anyone interested.

With
Hard Rain:
by Alexis Jetter
The Hard Rain Printing Collective: you
may not have heard the name, but you
prob.ably have their work plastered to
your wall or car. Located on the second
tloor of a downtown office building (next
w The Bike Stand) Hard Rain quietly
churns out creative. powerful graphic
statements-and
those familiar-to-us-all

In Spring
after gathering their
p,1ltry savings, Grace, Greg Folxe, and
Don Martin bought equipment from a

you lose everything, be sure to save your
mimeograph machines," Both women
stressed that visual images affKt people
on a whole different level" than words

responsibility for making clear statements.
The dual position of Hard Rain
members as both labor and management
has presented some interesting ironies.
Hard Rain decided that, "given the big

us to join the Graphic Arts International

Isabell explained the reason for this
decision, "The regular (hiring! procedure

incomplete."
Isabell declined to
comment on how the procedure was
circumvented,
until after a Dean is
chosen.
Originally, five members of the faculty
were being considered for the position:
Mary Hillaire, Richard Cellarius. Jeff
Kelly. Greg Steinke. and Kirk Thompson.
Since Hillaire did not submit her
portfolio, she was officially out ol the
running. This ~ft four white men under
consideration.
Youtz and Isabell discussed the lack of
minority applicants in the pool. Youtz
then published a memorandum (May 2)
which asked"the Advisory Group to
postpone the interviewing and recommending process, and announced that
furth~r nominations would hr accrpted

TESC faculty will retreat to the
Westwater Inn on June 13 and 14 to plan
the curriculum for 1980-81. Assistant
Academic Dean Jeanne Hahn, thinks the
outcome of this spring's curriculum
planning session will make it possible for
students "to play a more important role"
in critiquing the outcome, published in
mid-November as the Trial Balloon.
Jeanne Hahn believ.. changes in this
year's planning process will produce a
better Trial Balloon; one that will
n,present a nearly complete picture of
what the 1980-81 curriculum will include.
The hope ls that the bulk of the
curriculum will be set by the time the
Balloon makes its appearance, making
evaluations of the curriculum as a whole
more likely.
The TRial Balloon will be posted for a
wee.k to ten days. Final decisions on the
curriculum as it appeared in the 1980-81
Program Supplement,
must be made
during this period so that the Supplement
will be ready for distribution by January
1. In meeting this requirement
the
modified structure of the planning procus
has been designed
to produce
a
curriculum draft that will need few
adjustments after it is printed in the
Supplement.
Supporting this, the faculty retreat aims
to construct ··a solid rough draft" of
programs and courses for 1980-81, &a.id
Jeanne. Specialty Area conveners will
"take a more antral role" in the planning
process. making sure that each Specialty
Area comes up with a plan and that a
report of each plan is made to the Dons.

Dobbs Awarded
Loving Cup
by Alexis Jetter
Faculty member Carolyn Dobbs (who
doesn"t really look like this anymore) has
won the May loving Cup Award for her
"contribution to the Evergrttn community." Carolyn, known for her strong
"applied theory" approach to education,
has taught community planning at TESC,
and is presently working with the As Yciu
Sow program at the Organic Farm. "As
You Sow is a blending of theory and
practice: we don't just dig in the dirt and
we don"t just read books. h also reflects
my rural Southern background. which,
after going through my antithesis stage, I
came to realize had some neat things in it.
Th~re is the attachment to the land, and
anarchist principles: only the rules you
need. promulgated dittctly by the people
rather than by representatives."
Carolyn attributes the award to her role
in ~ sq,ool pthttin;i,,
from her
tribute to WUlie ("Who said than I

rately. as in the past.
Euly program planning by students is
essential since the Trial Balloon period is
primuily considered as a time to refine
the curriculum and assign faculty, rather
than introduce a lot of new programs.
·w,·reln a bind,"" said Jeanne, '"we need
to have the Supplement fairly 101id by
January but also allow for necessary
adjustments:·
The ideal time to begin planning a
program Is in the year preceding when the
program Is to take place, and before the
faculty retreat. Students Interested in
planning a program for 1980-81 should
get together with interested students,
locate receptive faculty, draw up a rough
draft proposal of the program and have
the faculty submit It at the retreat.
By leaving a small pool of faculty
unassigned this year, adjustments wen,
made lo accommodate some program
needs appearing during the yur. But the
chance of finding interested and uncommitted faculty and auuring a program's
inclusion in the curriculum art better if
program planning is dome in lime to be
presented al the faculty retn,at.

by Third World student Donna P. Hayes,
who is presently part of the Etruscans
study program. Donna WQ.S chosen this

Being Third World, Black, and a
Womz:, travelling in Europe has been a
very interesting
experience
for me.
\Nherever I go, and whatever I do, the~
are almost always several pairs of eyes
staring at me and curiously watching my
every move.
LONDON
While staying in London, I did not
encounter stares because London has a
large population of Africans, Jamaciilf\s,
Indians, Pakistanis
and Arabs. Racial
problems are now a way of life in
London. One of my classmates was telling
me that he witnessed a group of white
men in a pub tell two black men that they
could come in, but they better shut up
and keep quiet or else be thrown out. The
people of color that were born in Eng]and
have an accent just like the white citizens.
For me, that was the strangest thing;
hearing people of color omit their "H's"
and speaking Cockney.
Politically, Europe is drawing apart.

The day I arrived in London, an Arab
student demonstration/rally
was taking
place in Hyde Park. It was sponsored by
the Arab Student Alliance (of England,
Scotland, and Ireland) to protest the
Sadat-Carter-Begin
Middle E,ut Peace
Treaty. 1n the same location a Zionist
student organization was al90 protesting
the peace treaty, they were still in
opposition to the Arab students. There
were police everywhere and no violence
occured.
PARIS
Our next stop was Paris. I did not lik•
Paris for many reasons, mostly because
Parisians a.re rude to just about anyone
who is not French and cannot speak
French with a good accent. My biggat
surprise in Paris was the number of B~
people l saw there. It was like downtown
Tacoma, New York, S.attl,, Los Ange),.
or Chicago. Everywhere I went, I saw
Black people and they spok• French lik•
natives. Most of thmi are from ex-French
colonies in Africa (North Africa).
Th,re are lots of Arabs in Paris. I
discovered that most French people do
not care one way or the other about
Black peopl,, but absolutely hat• Arabs
with a passion. Arabs are frequently
beaten up at night tf they are in the
wrong place, especially a bar.
One week before we arrived in Paris,
there was a huge riot which demolished
three miles of Paris City blocks.
Apparently, a group of skilled workers
had gone on strike and were marching.
As usual, the communist party joined in.
Eventually, violence erupted. Paris police
always travel in groups, or at least pairs
because they are not well received by the
citizens. Parisian politics are split pretty
evenly down the middle. One is either
communist or capitalist; the two sides do
not get along.
A large number of the population seem
in•erested in the nuclear power issue.
Paris has several anti-nuclear
power
organizations
and demonstrations
are
frequent. We saw anti-nuclear
power
flyers, posters. and graffiti all over Paris,
and the Harrisburg incident always made
headlines.
BARCELONA
From Paris I went to Barcelona, Spain.
I always received stares in Spain and saw
only five or six Black people in the whole
time I was there. Spanish women seem to
have as much freedom now as other
Grad Plans Confirmed

On May 14, the graduation committee
met to finalize plans for the Sunday. June

member group firmed the schedule of
events.
Sparked by confusion, student participation in planning has been strong in the
past few weeks,
The controversy
surrounded
poor communication
and
misconceptions about decisions made by
the original
six member committee
concerning wearing of caps and gowns
presentation of degrees, and the selection
of speakers.
Both the wearing of caps and gowns,
and walking across the stage are strickly
optional. In response to student demand,
the selection of speakers was delegated to
a committee of over 25 students. The
group choices: Maxine Mims, Master of
Ceremonies; Stephanie Coontz, faculty;
Joyce Angell, student; and a speech to be
written and presented by a collective
group of students, were also confirmed in
the May 14 meeting.
The festivities will begin at 1 :00 p.m.,

So far,

that th• further south one trav,Is in Spain

Spain did not seem to be very ild.ive
politically, but political situations there
are much more tense that in England or
France. The military police are ~erywhere and carry machine guns all th,
time. Spanish people did not seem
interested in Harrisburg
or even in
discussing it. Likewise, I heard nothina
about communism, capitalism or striking.
Instead, Spanish p,opl• w•re occupied
with Superman. There were long lines
down the street and around the comer of
movie theaters that were showing the film
and the soundtrack to Supen,um was
heard incessantly over the radio and sold
in cassettes at record shops.
While we were in Spain, Barcelonians
were p~aring
for the opening of th•

soccer match, and &ster. They celebrate
Good Thursday and Good Friday. About
200,000 Spaniards were expected to arrive

On the eve of possible reinstatement of

have designated th• week of May 28
through June 3 as Vietnam Veterans

during the Vietnam conflict. At present,
Evergreen has approximately 240 Vietnam

studies. While they generally are satisfied
with Evergreen, they have some unique
problems.
One problem is the Veterans Acknini.s-tration. The VA. in the summer oi '77,

receiving full time benefits to be enrolled
in a minimum of 12 credit houn and ll
lassroom hours per week. Evergreen was

were not

ERC Update

INITIATIVE MEASURE 362
More signal ures are needed to get
Initiative Measure 362 on the November
ballot. This initiative could prohibit
nuclear weapons in the statt' of Washington. The initiative has been formally
approved by the attorney general, and the
Coalition Opposing Radiation Proliferation (CORP) has already collected over
100,000 signatures. The official ballot will
read; "sha~I an initiative be adopted
prohibiting
the posSffsion.
construction,
transportation. or sale of nuclear weapons
within the state of Washington7" The
deadline for signatures is June 24, 1979.
In Collecting signatures door to door on
the west side, I've found a strong
.inti-nuclear reaction" in the population
I've come in contact with. Responses are
overwhelmingly encouraging. One older
woman signed the petition after an initial
leariness, and even said, "I guess we've
got to unite on these things." The ERC
staff encourages you to come in and sign
the petition and/or take a few door to
door yourself. So much more of the
Olympia community could be covered if
we had more people. The petitions can be
picked up and returned to Claire's box in
the ERC.
ANTI-NUKE MARCH AND RALLY
On June 3. the International Day of
Protest, there will be a march and rally in
Seattle to oppose nuclear power. People
will march from the Westlake Mall at 1
p.m., to the rally at Occidental Park,
beginning at 2 p.m. Carpools
are
organizing out of the ERC.
WALK FOR THE WHALES
Greenpeace is having a fundraising
walk. ·Walk for the Whales '79" will be
happening in Seattle on Saturday, June 2.
It ¾ill start at Gaswork Park, between
8 30 and 10:00 a.m. Walker's packets. as
well as information on carpooling to
Seattle, are available in the ERC.
NUKE TEST INVESTIGATION MOVIE
Paul Jacobs and the Nuclear Gang was
v.1ritten and directecl by Jack Willis and
Saul Landau, but it originated out of the
efforts of Paµ) Jacobs him~lf. In 1957
Paul Jacobs began investigating the effects
of radiation on people living near the
nuclear test sites in Nevada. While Jacobs
was in the process of making a film about
his investigations, he developed cancer.
and died last year. His investigations had
taken him into highly radioactive areas,
oontact with which may have caused the
cancer which killed him. Willis and
l;indau finished the film, using Jacobo'
story as a framework and commentary.
There is a good review of the movie in
the March 16 issue of Seven Days,
available in th• library and in the ERC.
The ERC will be showing th, fihn on
Tuesday, May 29, at 12, 7, 9 in Lectun,

Comment
last Comment
by Laurie Pearl Lindsay Knight
My stint as a newspaper editor almost
over, l pause and reflect ... why the hell
did I become a newspaper editor? Of all
the absurd things
to do. I ha.te
newspapers. They're too depressing.
For the four years preceeding my
arrival here and subsequent enlistment in
the editorial corps, I'd done everything in
my power to avoid newspapers and other
bearers of bad tidings. I went to the
extreme of living in the most isolated
areas, where reception would be poor
even if we'd had a TV, and the nearest
newspaper vendors were twenty miles
3\-Vay.News of the outside world was iust
too upsetting, and seemed irrelevant to
anything of real importance. After all,
with the hay ready to be mown and Mark
needing help repairing his barn roof and
rain on the way and Belle just about to
foal, who the hell cares who said what in
D.C. and what they're doing to foreign
policy7
But I started feeling guilty-here I was
living this happy life surrounded by
beauty, while the opposing forces were
dosing in on all sides. And I wasn't doing
anything about it, perhaps in the hopes
that if I ignored it hard enough, maybe it
would all just go away. Feeling suddenly
reponsible for everything that happens in
the world, I packed up, trundled out of
the wnoch, and came here to catch up
on what I'd missed in my blissful absence.
Re-entry has made me fttl a bit like Rip
Van Winkle. Things certainly
have
changed while I've been gone-they're
even worse than 1 remember. Disco
Ducks? Punk? New Agel Neoconservatism7 Cllinese Capitalism? A veritable plethora of "ism's" to catch up on.
Nuclear proliferation, Linda Ronstadt as
First Lady, and genetic engineering? What
the hell is going on here, anyhow? I feel
like a real babe out of the woods. It takes
one who's been absent to see how fast
things have deterioratfll. You folks out
here in the "real" world sure have messed
up a lot in a short time. They were bad
enough when I left.
So it was, out of a sense of guilt, that I
came here in an attempt to ease myself
back into the old grind of social and
political change. And how did I choooe to
do itl Like a twit, I w,nt and jumped
right into the middle of the fray. How
better to work for change than to be a
propagandist7
Being a newspaper editor has btm one
of the most depressing experiences of my
life. Not only do I have to know what's
going on, I have to tell people about it,
play the bearer of bad news. The state
wants to close down TESC, and it hardly
even matters because we're all going to be
drafted anyhow, unleso we all get radiated
to death first. I'm homesick.
For the most part, I've forgotten what
I'd hoped to accomplish by working on a
newspaper. My first reaction, now that
it's almost over, is to head for the hills.
But somehow I can't. For one thing,
isolation has become a commodity
affordable only by the rich. More
importantly, how can I go back and live a
happy life when I know chances are
against it lasting very long, and so many
people never even have the chance of
finding it7 Now that I've lived in both
extremes, what I . need to do is find a
balance between them-to live the way I
like and fight to preserve that life at the
same time.
Open Wide
Sore Throats
by Susan Buskin
After reading this column you should
be able to determine whether to care for a
sore throat yourself or to consult a
medical practioner for treatment. We will
cover causes, prevention, and cures of
some common sore throats.
Sore throats
have three common
causes: bacterial, viral, and external.
Bacterial infections are generally characterized by rapid on~t, and can be treated
with antibiotics. Strep throat is the most
common bacterial infectk>n. In contrast,
viraJ infections are generally slower to
present themselves and do not rHpond to
antibiotics.
Sore throats caused by
external factors do not respond to
antibiotic treatment; however, they will
usually disappear within a week alter th•
irritant is removed. Cigarette smoking,
inhaled chemical irritants, and exassive
talking can all cause sore throats. When
you have a bacterial or viral sore throat,
these other factors can aggravate and
prolong it.
Beta streptococci group A, a bacterial
throat infection that can be dangerous if
left untreated,
can be cured by an
antibiotic taken regularly for a preocribed
length of time. This treatment will
p,n,ent further complications and the
spread of infection to other body sy!lems,
Nelson s Import
Service
the lungs, heart, or kidneys. The most
common symptoms of strep throat att
rapid on~t of a painful sort throot, high
fever, difficulty swollowing,
lack of
appetite, and distaste for cigarettes. U you
have these symptoms, you should make
an appointment at Health Services to be
examined. Keep in mind that whil• these
symptoms are typical. strep throat can be
present without any significant symptoms,
or can show symptoms indicative of viral
infection and vice versa. As a general
guideline, a high fever with a sore tftroat
and no other symptoms is suggestive of
strep infection, indicating that a diagnostic culture should be taken. A low
grade fever with a sore throat and other
cold symptoms is less likely to be strep
throat, but after four or five days, you
may want to come to Health Services to
rule out that possibility.
Treatment of viral infections requires
mostly patience and alleviation
of
symptoms, since there is no effective cure.
Generally, such infections leave in about
as much time as they take to set in, and
their onset can be very slow.
To soothe a sore throat. you may want
to try throat lozenges (more expensive but
also mor, effective than cough drops),
salt water gargles, hydrogen peroxide
gargles (a one to three part water
solution; be careful not to swallow it),
extra amounts of vitamin C, garlic, and
cayenne, small amounts of honey, lemon,
herbal teas such as sage, comfrey,
mullien, licorice root, slippery elm or any
other home remedy that works for you.
To help ease discomfort or to bring
down a fever, one can and sometimes
should, take aspirin or acetominophen
(Tylenol is one brand name, but buying
the generic labeled bottles is gm,rally less
expensive).
For both symptoms-sore
throat and
fever-drinking
lots of fluids and
increasing the humidity of the air you
breathe by inhaling steam (being careful
not to bum yourself) can be extn,mely
beneficial. The steam will help loosen
mucus. Adding eucalyptus or peppermint
to the water may also help. lnrn,ased
intake of Auids helps cl,an out your
system and pn,vent dehydration from
fevv or sweating. Stay away from the
sauna becau~ it will only dry up your
mucus membranes, and can increase the
risk of the inft<:tion sprtading to othen.
Lik, all illn....,, sort throats can be
prevented by k...ping in good mental and
phy&ical shope. When you ar, feeling run
down, your ftSistan~ will be lower; you
may catch diaeosn your body would
normally fend off. :You •hould keep watch
on your lewl of temion and try to n,dua,
prolonged stttssiul situations. Nutritional
suppl,ments such .. brewers' y•ost (rich
in B complex vitamins) and vitamins C
ond E con htlp to mointoin high
resistance. Again, ovoiding irritants and
keeping your house or opartment well
humidified
ls another
preventative
mtafllff,
If you nftd • thro•t culture talr.en, the
TESC lab eu1 do one for tht low..i local
ratt. The cost ii $10.00; school insurance
(if you hove it) will cover it. R.. ults on,
reody in two cloys; if a strept infection is
present, lrtotm,nt can begin •t that time.

Review:
The
Deer hunter
by T .J Simpson
Michael Cimino's Th.e Dttrhunter is not
the best of the recent spate of American
films dealing with the Vietnam war (Karel
Reis.z.'stoo often overlooked Who11 Stop
the Rain? is), but despite its flaws, it's still
an important and powerful work. What
Reisz achievt"S in romantic mythos with
Who1I Stop the Rain 1, Cimino only tries
to achieve in realism with The Dffrhunter.
As a Him enthusiast and veteran of the
anti-war movement,
I fttl obligated to
defend Cimino's film against some of the
unjust attacks it has received from certain
segments of the left.
Three working class guys from a stttl
mill town in Pennsylvania n.aively go off
to Vietnam as if they're going off to fight
the Kaiser. One comes back shattitttd but
intact. one comes back without his legs.
an the horrors and hypocrisy of the war
makes the other one b«ome a willing
participant in a Siagon Russian Roulette

What's mostly got th..., leftoids pissed off
are the scenes showing

,During the war, most of us in the

of the N. l.F. as anything other than righl
on humble liberators who wouldn't dttnn
of hurting a peasant. (Remember when it
was a sarilege to call them "Viet Con.gr')
It's about time we all gr~
up and faad
reality.
The Viet Cong did commit
atrocities. War hiis a tendency to do that
to people. We seem to be able to easily
accept the fact that Americans committed
numerous atrocities (getting involved in
the war was the first one as the Him
points out), but the recent events in
Vietnam, Chin.a, and Cambodia can leave

connection
with this film,
the more
staggering the implications become. Like
Renoir in '1.a Grand Illusion." Cimino is
asking us to forget nationalities for once
and be sickened by war itself.
Some critics of the film have Sttn fit to
picket it and call it a "riicist apology for
the war."

any help for his friend,
despite the
pre-sence of American and South Vietnam~
forces. He's lost and ignored in a
sea of madnes.s, destruction, blood, death,
and indifference.
To make the nightmare worst, after
cme of the main characters (Christopher

is introduced to practically leg.al Russian

SAGA
To Take Action
by Ben Alexander
(Off the Wall Wire Service) - The
SAGA Food Corporation announced
today that they will take immediate
action to fix the problem of broken
vending machines in the CAB first floor.
A long time SAGA employee told us. "the
number of students coming in to the
cafeteria to complain about losing money
has gotten out of hand. Since the vending
machine company won't fix them. we
intend to take corrective action. We are
going to leave a sledgehammer out in the
hall by the machines, and from now on
we don't want any complaints from irate
students."
This news did not go over well with the
CPJ staff, whose office is located right
beside the vending machines. One upset
editor reportedly reacted, "If they leave a
(deleted) sledgehammer by the (deleted)
machines, we're gonna have (expletive
deleted) students smashing the ever-lovin'
(expletive deleted) out of them all day
long. Screw that! We11 move back to our
old office on the third floor."
The design team that recently moved
the CPJ office downstain to make room
for a student lounge was not pleased with
the CPJ editor's suggestion. The architect
who assisted the group warned. "a quiet,
intimate space where students may exist
in harmony with their environment is
vital. The new lounge area provides a
context, through a skillful blending of
colors. shapes and textures into an
organic whole, where students may
maximally utilize their surroundings
without feeling alienated."
In a related development. Provost
Byron Youtz made public his intention to
make vending machine smashing an
academic requi.rement for an Evergreen
degree. Faculty member Bill Aldridge
supported this action, claiming, '1 think a
student should be able to go here for four
years and study nothing but Zen vending
machine smashing, and still get a degree."
Youtz was not available for comment.
His secretary, however, commented, '1
think he's off his rocker." We agree.

Dreaded
Social Disease
by Sue Peabody
While strolling past the Rec Center last
week. I chanced upon a group of students
carefully scritinizing the building's concrete walls. "Ahl I thought, "an EvergR!ffl
design program doing meticulous field
work. They must be examining the
strucutre of the concrete walls, analyzing
their effectiveness at holding the rooms
inside." However, as I watched a little
longer, my suspicions became aro~
when I spotted tell-tale items of their
clothing: tiny booties with no treads on
the bottom, diaper-like harnesses made of
nylon webbing and an occasional hard
hat. Scanning the ground around them,
my suspicions were confirmed : coils of
rope and carabeenen. These were the
dreaded social climbers of Evergreen.
Most of us assume. I think, that the
call to become a student at Evergreen
originates with a yearning for some sort
d academic option; the recognition that
learning must somehow amount to more
than lectures in crowded auditoriums and
aams. But to some, the true reason for
the trek to this venerable Institution
amounts to nothing more that the "desire
to aspire.H They suffer from what II
known by psychologists and other people
who like to make fancy label, as
acrophilia, or the will for the hills. You
find them everywhere: climbing the
wreck center, ascending the College
Activities Building and the dorms-they
even resort to trees in extreme cues.

stranded in ~.

attempt to climb cornstalks, due to lade;

Evans Resigns
by Ben Alexander
Amidst a flurry of rumors. The
Evergreen State College President Dan
Evans submitted his resignation to the
Bored of Truatees today. Though a
complete story was unavailable at press
time, the CPJ was able to contact Evans
at his office, for a brief interview.
Evans made it dear from the start that
his resignation wu prompted by pressure
from the legislature to lncreue enrollment. "Things haven't been the same
ever since that damned CPE Report came
out," he exclaimed. '1"he students want
one thing, the teachers want another. Just
when some specific changes are .about to
be made. another special interest group
pops lq> with some dumb objection ... and
all the time there is the spectre of this
four year enrollment mandate looming
overhead. It's enough to drive a man
crazy I"
Asked if he views the situation as
hopeless, Evans replied, "Every change is
opposed by someone ... the whole nation's
alternative schools are suffering from
declining enrollment ... and everyone in
Olympia hates us. Even climbing the
docktower in a business suit didn't help
Frankly, I don't see how the school can be
saved. That's why I decided to cut out
now."
The ex-Governor emphatically denied
rumors that he would return to the
political arena. We inquired as to his
future plans, and he explained that he has
already accepted a position as a security
guard at the Satsop nuclear power plant.
A bill to create a Satsop police force
being considered by the legislature is a
major reason for his career change. 'The
job has potential," stated Evans. "Even
with the recent bad publicity on nuclear
power. Satsop ls a lot more likely to be
around ·n fifteen years than Evergreen."
Political analysts were skeptical that
this was anything more than a flamboyant publicity stunt. One veteran
Evergreen observer viewed his action this
way: "He hasn't had his picture in the
paper since the clocktower incident. What
do you want from a politidan7 This will
hit the 6: 00 news and he11 be back on the
job in the morning."
An Exercise
in Incompetence

"Acrophlia" is reaching epidemic pr<>portlons among today's youth. Thought
to be transmitted by word of mouth, few
remedies are available to thoee who come
in contact with an already infected friend.

• Watching the students taking turn•
bruisingknees and akinnJngelbows at the
R« Center, I sacDy pondered to mywlf,
'What caURSthis dlsu,el What can be

reflection; it's a lick society that cautet
. iu youth to climb thewalls.
by Pearl Carpenter and Walter Knight
The memory still rings in my mind, like
be.ing hit ove.r the head with a large bell.
It was last November and we were sitting
in seminar, discussing ways of taking over
the world for our own devices while
making it appear to be for everybody's
good. Someone mentioned that Brain
Cantwell, editor of the Cooper Point
Urinal, was quitting his post to run away
to Tierra Del Fuego with what was left of
the budget.
"Of course! We'll take over the achoo!
newspaper!" we mumbled in • unison, a
Hucks-like gleam of power madness
coming to our eyes. "But we don't know
anything about newapapen," someone
said. "So what?" another replied. We
were on our way.
A month later, aftu writing an utterly
rhetorical manifato 10unding u though
we kMW everythina about newspapers
and some highly convincing threats to the
Publications Board, 1eVen upstart young
anarchists were allowed In the CPJ office.
Our aim was to put out a newspaper.
There is atlll some dispute u to whether
we've accomplished that goal. M01t of
our readers would say not. MOit of our
writers would rather not talk about It.
Once we had the Job, ~ had to figure
~
out how to do something with it.
Someone had to write the paper. and it
sure as hell wasn't going to be us. In a fit
of brilliance we haven't matched since, we
wrote up a slew of propaiganda stating
benevolently that we'd let others write the
paper for us. Boy, did we have them
duped! Using terms dear to the hearts ol
Greenen, such as "community involvement," we led people to think we were
doing them a favor by letting them do
ou.r job. We only took the job so we
could roll around the office in th01e nifty
purple chain, feeling important.
To get writers, we instituted the "open
meeting," held every other Tuaday to
make up, or "brainstorm"
articles.
"Brainstorming"
meant that everyone
would sit around drinking tequila and
smoking paraquat hoping that in our
delusion, somebody might figure out what
to write about. Thne meetings eerved two
purposes: 1) to make up articles and
fabricate stories ~•d pretend to c:owr
and 2) to aaslgn these stories to
"volunteen," or rather, Nckers dumb
enough to write for us.
One advantage of controlling the
achool's newspaper is censorship. Ah, the
power of the press. Print what you like,
and leave the rest. We printed stuff by
