Omnia Extares!
by Cheryl A Pegues
So here we are guys, all of us hard core Evergreeners coming back for more, some coasting in out of the ozone, others of us
fresh and naive all over again after four months too much exposure to that great American institution called "the family ." Some
are in bad shape, some in worse shape, but none of us in as crummy of shape as those shining beacons of open-minded, search ing, education-starved magnitude; the new students, in all their glory. Kinda gets ya, doesn't it? So welcome back to The Evergreen State College, everybody , The place really never changes much - there's always half a building up somewhere, more
beauty bark, more grubby plants in the beauty bark, more concrete, more asphalt , fewer trees, less sanity and a never' ending
supply of rain , But there's no place like home, right?
So how was your summer? Are you prepared to face another year of burned-out parties, academic pot lucks, recreational
potlucks, faculty potlucks, staff potlucks, administration potlucks (catered)' evaluations, re-doing evaluations, modules, rain ,
group contracts, rain, retreats, rain, ~quare dances, folk dances, round dances, up dances, down dances, concerts (kinda), kayaking, SAGA Foods, controversies, Affirmative Action (kinda) Academic Fairs, bus fare~, and the Cooper Poirlt Journal? If so,
put this down, by all means and get on with it! If not (like us), the Underground Guide to Evergreen is the publication for you .
For all of you who don't kno.w how to survive, and all of the other of us who have probably forgotten over the summer, we,
the CPJ, have come up with this exclusive package of anything and everything you could possibly want to know about (al most), along with our opinion of everything and anything you could want to know about (definitely) ,
So how can the Underground Guide work for you? Well, it all starts about three years ~k when Evergreen first started , All
the time we were eating, retreating, gettin' high and boogyin' and appreciating our edotatioh, the legislature thought we were
just playing around, It made them nervous that we were all so happy ,
First they tried to get rid of us with mud . If it's one thing that Olympia has a good steady supply of, it's mud . Red Square
was mud, The CAB and CRe buildings were completely mud. There was mud on the rocks, in the streams, on the paths, on
the stairs, on your shoes, in your shoes, on the beach, off the beach; just about everywhere a little dirt and water could get it
on there was mud, The mud idea worked pretty good and sent lots of people to the showers, but just when things looked hope less the valiant geoduck appeared. Geoducks like mud, Mud and geoducks are ideal partners , Pretty soon Evergreeners began to
have value for mud, Everybody decided mud wasn't so bad. Everyone was happy , The legislature was not.
Then they got up a plan to get rid of all the mud , They'd pave everything. They started paving, First they only paved over
mud , or rocks, or prepared surfaces, But they liked the effect so well they started paving over grass and trees and forest and
people , They really got into it. At first the students weren't too happy about the pavement, but we're not dummies, we knew it
beat the hell out of the mud and besides, we had the responsibility to stop things from getting completely out of hand, so we
pretended to like the paving, This made the legislators really unhappy,
Next it was beauty bark. This one nearly destroyed us. Why they call it beauty bark we'll never know, because it's even
uglier than the pavement. They put beauty bark over everything, Flower beds, tree beds, river beds, double beds, even pavement. But even beauty bark did not seem to affect the steadily increasing flow of happy people to Evergreen.
The legislature decided since it couldn't get rid of us it would refuse us financial support and we would gradually die away
from malnutrition, They arbitrarily decided Evergreen was too full of hippies, philosophers, poets, musicians, and generally
good people who liked to have a good time, They basically felt we were too tacky to earn their financial support. So Evergreen
set out to alter its image in the eyes of the legislature and the general public . All the hippies, philosophers, poets, musicians and
generally good people were sent to the extreme corners of the library to vegetate. Enter mathematicians, humanitarians and sci- .
entists , A test paper here, a slide rule there, a couple of charts and graphs in strategic locations around campus (like bathrooms)
and voila! Parents, grandparents, the boy next door and the legislature are smiling, That's education, they say, And with the
smiles come the funds. And money makes everybody happy, right? Wrong! The only people that are happy are those that are
getting money! Are you in that select group? No! So along with the academic decorators we have the PR men , PR men (and
women too, I suppose) make everything look great. PR men make cement look like grass , PR men make administrators look
like good guys, like Ralph Williams. PR men make SAGA look like Howard Johnson's, PR men make everything look great.
The problem is though most of us are smart enough to see through the biggies, like SAGA or the cement, we can't always distinguish between the real thing and the touched up copy! For this reason we bring you the Undergrtlund Guide which is, by all
means, blatantly honest. What's here is pretty much just the facts sans decorating , We've tried to give you an honest, updated
view of almost everything that is offered here at Evergreen for your education, entertainment and enjoyment.
There's a lot of material here, but then Evergreen's got a lot to offer. Most of the material was compiled and written by stu dents who have had some experience in dealing with the specific reference, so it's honest.
We've got to apologize if anything is missing, we've really tried to include everything we could think of, but the Journal has
had a little bit of a staffing problem. In fact as this writer sits here she is noticing how it is 11 pm and wondering why she is not
home watching Star Trek. Instead she and three other people are sitting in the Journal office trying simultaneously to work and
preserve their sanity; a grueling operation , Anyway , enjoy the guide, and let us know how you like or didn't like it. We hope it
helps you a little in your travels here at Evergreen .

~~I. REGISTRATION~~
ber in the program you are entering. It
also requires a special form (white, not
green) which can be obtained from the
Registrar's staff during the hours they are
open for registration.
Step 5 - The deadline for tuition and
fee payments is the same for all students,
Monday, Oct. 6 . Tuition and fees may be
paid earlier if desired.
MODULES
A Living Catalog presentation explaining the modules (I-unit programs) for fall
is scheduled for Thursday, Sept. 25, at
7pm. The place has not yet been announced.
A student in a full-time program may
register for a module providing t~e ti~es
for module meetings do not COnflict With
the times the student is expected to take
part in program seminars and other activities. However, the maximum credit a fulltime student may obtain in anyone quarter is 4 Evergreen units. Therefore, enrolling in a module will not produce extra
credit for a full-time student. (The student
may elect to receive 1 unit of credit in the
module subject if that meets with the approval of her / his program faculty.)
STUDENT ACTIVITIES
Registration a t Evergreen bears very
little resemblance to registrations at other
co lleges. As a matter of fact, Evergreen's
registration process doesn't even resemble
itself from yea r to yea r. It 's still evolving,
which c reates periodic consternation
<lmong the inmates when several hundred
of them discovered they've been "disenrolled ," as we say here , because they forgo t or didn't kn ow about some deadline.
What Jot's it mean to be "disenrolled7"
It means d stud en t suddenly discovers that
she I he has ceased to be a student at Evergreen because th e right form wasn't
turned in at the right place on the right
day. Thi s happened to literally hundreds
of Evergreeners last spring when they
fa iled to register for a fall program before
the May 29 deadline. (Most were first
year studen ts at TESC who didn't realize
'such a deadline existed.)
, Beco ming d isenro lled means losing your
.$50 depos it unless you successfully petition for re instatement , which involves
taking your case to a review board. So it
pays to know the registrat ion procedure .
'What follows is as complete and accurate
a description of that procedure as was
possib le at press time. There may be a
'few changes in September, but they probably wi ll be minor and will be
announced . The editors of the Journal
s~st - especia ll y if you are a new student - that you memorize the procedure
or bring this issue of the Journal with you
and consult it during registrat ion week .
NEW STUDENTS
Step 1 - Read the yellow Catalog Supplement, attend the Academic Fair from
lOam to lpm on Monday , Sept. 22, in the
Library lobby, and decide on the program
in which you wish to be a student.
Step 2' - Obtain a green registration
card. They will be available from the
Registrar's staff somewhere in the Library
Lobby during the Academic Fair, and
from 1 to Spm on Monday in the Lecture
Hall Lobby, where registration is to be
located during registration week only .
Beginning Tuesday morning, you can
obtain a green card between the hours of
9am and noon in the Lecture Hall Lobby.
(Green cards also will be available between 2 and 4pm Sunday, Sept. 21, in the
Registrar's office.)
Step 3 - On the green card, fill in the
name of the program you have selected in the proper place, .of course - and obtain the signature of a faculty member in
that program (or contract) . To save time
and trouble, be sure the program is still
open and accepting students before you
fill in the name. You can find this out at
the Academic Fair; all programs still open
to students will be represented there.
Otherwise, you'll have to locate the faculty member in her Ihis office. (Which
isn't always easy.)
Step 4 - Take the completed card to
the Lecture Hall Lobby, between 1 and
Spm Monday , Sept. 22, or between 9am
and noon on Tuesday, Sept. 23, through
Friday, Sept. 26. Note that the Registrar's
staff will be in the Lecture Hall Lobby,
not in the Registrar's office. Note also
that the Registrar's staff will only be accepting registrations Monday afternoon
and mornings the rest of the week .
Step 5 - Pay your tuition and fees by
Monday, Oct. 6,
DEFERRED STUDENTS
(Note: Deferred students are those who
applied for and received deferred status
last spring or who were disenrolled and,
later reinstated . They are regular students
but are not enrolled in a program . )
Steps 1 through 3 - Same as for new
students.
Step 4 - Deferred students cannot
complete their registration until Wednesday, Sept. 24 through Friday, Sept. 26.
Registration hours are from 9am to noon
in the Lecture Hall Lobby .
Step 5 - Same as for new students.
CONTINUING STUDENTS
(Note: Continuing students are regular,
full-time Evergreen students who are continuing from last year.)
Continuing students who are not on de- .~
ferred status are registered in a program
or contract. They may change their regis t'
tration beginning Thursday, Sept. 25, between 9am and noon. New and deferred
students also may re-register (or switch
programs) beginning Sept. 25 .
Re- registration requires obtaining the
signatures of a faculty member in the program you are leaving and a faculty mem-
Under some circumstances, students
may obtain' academic credit for student
activities such as writing for the Cooper
Point Journal or broadcasting on KAOS,
the college radio station. They must have
a faculty sponsor (for an individual con tract or in a program) in order to do so,
in most cases. Further information about
these academic opportunities can be obtained from Randy Harrison, KAOS Station Manager, or from Ti Fleming, Editor
of the Journal.
ACADEMIC ADVISING
Special Academic Advisers will be
available to all students in Room 1008 of
the laboratory Building during registration week. Hours for the Academic Advisiing have not been announced, but i~
formation can be obtained from the RegiStrar's staff.
LA TE REGISTRATION
late registrlltion for regular and special
students will take place between 6 and
Spm every evening during the first week
of instruction, Sept. 29 through Oct. 2, in
the Registrar's office.
SPEOAL STUDENTS
Townspeople and special students will
have an opportunity to attend an academic fair and module registration Monday, Sept. 15 through Thursday, Sept. 1~,
from 6 to 8pm in the Library Lobby. ThiS
"mini-registration" has been scheduled
early in order to encourage part-time st~
dents to take part in more of the college s
academic programs.
ID Cards
One of the most important things at
Evergreen is the omnipresent l~ car~i
After you pay your fees, the ~ashler WI
sign a card verifying that yes mdeed, you
are a student, and send you to ~et yo~r
10 card made.The 10 photo machmes Will
be in the lobby just outside the business
office. The people there will take your
picture and you'll have to wait about IS
minutes for your photo to be processed
and the card laminated in plastic.
The card has IBM holes punched in it
corresponding to your Social Security
number. Without the card you cannot
check anything out of the Library--the
check-out system there is computerized,
hence the IBM holes . Incidently, the first
time you visit the Library with your new
card they will cut the lower left corner
off. This is to keep their machines from
jamming. Do not be alarmed. With the
card you are also authorized for lower
rates on the buses, some special discounts
at stores downtown , free admission to
some campus events, etc.
The card must be re-validated every
quarterl If you lose your card: 1) check
with the Security Office to see If they
have it and 2) if they d on't, go over to
the Registrar and they'll make you a new
one. But, it'll' cost you $5.00. So hang on
to your card.
BILLS FOR TUITION
Continuing students will receive mailed
bills for tuition and fees early in Septem-
ber. New students will be handed their
bills as the last step in the registration
process.
.
Students receiving financial aid must
show proof of registration at the Student
Accounts section on the first floor of the
Library building. Student Accounts ~hould
be able to advise students by the time of
registration of the totals of their grants
and when the first checks will be sent to
them .
BOOK STORE
Each academic program has a special
section in the bookstore for books to be
purchased by students in the program,
clearly labeled with the name of the p~o
gram . Generally, it's best to check WIth
your faculty member(s) before purchasing
books, however , since all students may
not be required to buy all of the program
books.
In addition to books, the bookstore
also stocks magazines , newspapers, small
drug items, paper, notebooks, sketch
pads, some clothing items (e.g., . Evergreen
sweatshirts), candy, cameras, hIm, backpacks, and other miscellany.
Students may special order books at the
bookstore . Additional information is

, Beco ming d isenro lled means losing your
.$50 depos it unless you successfully petition for re instatement , which involves
taking your case to a review board. So it
pays to know the registrat ion procedure .
'What follows is as complete and accurate
a description of that procedure as was
possib le at press time. There may be a
'few changes in September, but they probably wi ll be minor and will be
announced . The editors of the Journal
s~st - especia ll y if you are a new student - that you memorize the procedure
or bring this issue of the Journal with you
and consult it during registrat ion week .
NEW STUDENTS
Step 1 - Read the yellow Catalog Supplement, attend the Academic Fair from
lOam to lpm on Monday , Sept. 22, in the
Library lobby, and decide on the program
in which you wish to be a student.
Step 2' - Obtain a green registration
card. They will be available from the
Registrar's staff somewhere in the Library
Lobby during the Academic Fair, and
from 1 to Spm on Monday in the Lecture
Hall Lobby, where registration is to be
located during registration week only .
Beginning Tuesday morning, you can
obtain a green card between the hours of
9am and noon in the Lecture Hall Lobby.
(Green cards also will be available between 2 and 4pm Sunday, Sept. 21, in the
Registrar's office.)
Step 3 - On the green card, fill in the
name of the program you have selected in the proper place, .of course - and obtain the signature of a faculty member in
that program (or contract) . To save time
and trouble, be sure the program is still
open and accepting students before you
fill in the name. You can find this out at
the Academic Fair; all programs still open
to students will be represented there.
Otherwise, you'll have to locate the faculty member in her Ihis office. (Which
isn't always easy.)
Step 4 - Take the completed card to
the Lecture Hall Lobby, between 1 and
Spm Monday , Sept. 22, or between 9am
and noon on Tuesday, Sept. 23, through
Friday, Sept. 26. Note that the Registrar's
staff will be in the Lecture Hall Lobby,
not in the Registrar's office. Note also
that the Registrar's staff will only be accepting registrations Monday afternoon
and mornings the rest of the week .
Step 5 - Pay your tuition and fees by
Monday, Oct. 6,
DEFERRED STUDENTS
(Note: Deferred students are those who
applied for and received deferred status
last spring or who were disenrolled and,
later reinstated . They are regular students
but are not enrolled in a program . )
Steps 1 through 3 - Same as for new
students.
Step 4 - Deferred students cannot
complete their registration until Wednesday, Sept. 24 through Friday, Sept. 26.
Registration hours are from 9am to noon
in the Lecture Hall Lobby .
Step 5 - Same as for new students.
CONTINUING STUDENTS
(Note: Continuing students are regular,
full-time Evergreen students who are continuing from last year.)
Continuing students who are not on de- .~
ferred status are registered in a program
or contract. They may change their regis t'
tration beginning Thursday, Sept. 25, between 9am and noon. New and deferred
students also may re-register (or switch
programs) beginning Sept. 25 .
Re- registration requires obtaining the
signatures of a faculty member in the program you are leaving and a faculty mem-
Under some circumstances, students
may obtain' academic credit for student
activities such as writing for the Cooper
Point Journal or broadcasting on KAOS,
the college radio station. They must have
a faculty sponsor (for an individual con tract or in a program) in order to do so,
in most cases. Further information about
these academic opportunities can be obtained from Randy Harrison, KAOS Station Manager, or from Ti Fleming, Editor
of the Journal.
ACADEMIC ADVISING
Special Academic Advisers will be
available to all students in Room 1008 of
the laboratory Building during registration week. Hours for the Academic Advisiing have not been announced, but i~
formation can be obtained from the RegiStrar's staff.
LA TE REGISTRATION
late registrlltion for regular and special
students will take place between 6 and
Spm every evening during the first week
of instruction, Sept. 29 through Oct. 2, in
the Registrar's office.
SPEOAL STUDENTS
Townspeople and special students will
have an opportunity to attend an academic fair and module registration Monday, Sept. 15 through Thursday, Sept. 1~,
from 6 to 8pm in the Library Lobby. ThiS
"mini-registration" has been scheduled
early in order to encourage part-time st~
dents to take part in more of the college s
academic programs.
ID Cards
One of the most important things at
Evergreen is the omnipresent l~ car~i
After you pay your fees, the ~ashler WI
sign a card verifying that yes mdeed, you
are a student, and send you to ~et yo~r
10 card made.The 10 photo machmes Will
be in the lobby just outside the business
office. The people there will take your
picture and you'll have to wait about IS
minutes for your photo to be processed
and the card laminated in plastic.
The card has IBM holes punched in it
corresponding to your Social Security
number. Without the card you cannot
check anything out of the Library--the
check-out system there is computerized,
hence the IBM holes . Incidently, the first
time you visit the Library with your new
card they will cut the lower left corner
off. This is to keep their machines from
jamming. Do not be alarmed. With the
card you are also authorized for lower
rates on the buses, some special discounts
at stores downtown , free admission to
some campus events, etc.
The card must be re-validated every
quarterl If you lose your card: 1) check
with the Security Office to see If they
have it and 2) if they d on't, go over to
the Registrar and they'll make you a new
one. But, it'll' cost you $5.00. So hang on
to your card.
BILLS FOR TUITION
Continuing students will receive mailed
bills for tuition and fees early in Septem-
ber. New students will be handed their
bills as the last step in the registration
process.
.
Students receiving financial aid must
show proof of registration at the Student
Accounts section on the first floor of the
Library building. Student Accounts ~hould
be able to advise students by the time of
registration of the totals of their grants
and when the first checks will be sent to
them .
BOOK STORE
Each academic program has a special
section in the bookstore for books to be
purchased by students in the program,
clearly labeled with the name of the p~o
gram . Generally, it's best to check WIth
your faculty member(s) before purchasing
books, however , since all students may
not be required to buy all of the program
books.
In addition to books, the bookstore
also stocks magazines , newspapers, small
drug items, paper, notebooks, sketch
pads, some clothing items (e.g., . Evergreen
sweatshirts), candy, cameras, hIm, backpacks, and other miscellany.
Students may special order books at the
bookstore . Additional information is

Campus Housing
Since you've probab ly received a ll t he
information put out b y H o usi n g on
Housi ng yo u can sta nd , we wo n' t add
anyt hing furth er abou t rates , rooms, etc.
We will , however, take the time to add a
few notes from our store of w isdo m a nd
fair play.
Housing rates are unr ea l. In some
insta nces peo pl e are go ing to be pay ing
near $100 a mo nth to li ve with 4 ot her
people in a crowded apartment. Even the
Housin g Co-ordi nator ca n 't believe the
rates. But the noise leve l is fairly
consis ten t--co nsisten tl y lo ud . Liv ing in a
"quiet" area w ill prov ide so me relief. but
16 people singi ng "Hey Jude" out in the
Square a t 4: 00 in t h e m o rnin g can
penetra te any of even the finest bu ilt
d orm wa ll s a nd mos t carefully concealed
rooms . There's a lso the lights--a lways on
even if the lights in yo ur room are
out--and d on't let us forget the eternal
hum , Evergreen's finest achievement--in
quad at the' dorms. The lights a nd the
eterna l hum can be avoided by ge tting
yo urself into a mod , b u t the prices will
send you righ t back to the dorms .
Can you win? Yes--if you love noisy ,
rowdy accomodat ions wit h lo ts of cozy
company and a feeling of family , because
Housin g is a ll tha t too. A nd the staff is
OK; unless, of cou rse , you try to get out
of your con tract. Then it's Montezuma's
revenge all the way. Stay .ou t of trouble
and avoid this situation. Also; be extra
careful of. the type of roomma tes you r
karma attracts, and unless you 've made
plans to live with a specific person or
perso ns, you cou ld surp rise yourself at
just how crummy your karma is. But
there are pleasant surprises too, a nd some
good friends to be made. Give Housing a
shot (if you're in the bucks) and live it up
until you can find yourself a nice, quiet
place on the Westside .
Oh yes, we forgo t to mention ASH
(Adult Student Housing). a complex of
apartmen ts located right outside campus .
All we've got to say is if you think
housing is expensive, ASH will send you
runn in g for the cheap , low cost,
inexpensive housing in the dorms .
South Sound Bank
The only bank on campus - perhaps
that's what a ttracts so ma ny customers
because we don 't think it 's the hours.
Time has a lways been a wea thered issue
at Evergreen a nd South Sound's time is no
exception. If you are ab le to ca tch it open
(and get to the front of the line befo re· it
closes) you'll probably be turned away by
the relatively high cost of the relatively
limited banking services . However, South
Sound does have its advantages. It is the
only bank on campus; in fact it's the only
bank within about five miles and when
you need money now that can definitely
affect your opinion as to the qu a lit y of
the bank. The people a re also prett y OK
a nd take the time to notice wh o yo u are
a nd say hell o a nd not ask you for your
ID two hundred tim es. And it really isn ' t
a ny worse th an a few other banks we
cou ld menti o n so if you're new and don't
k now any better, or if you 're just practica l a nd a perso n who can take advant age
of highl y m otiva tin g situations li ke Sou th
So und's being the o nl y bank on ca mpu s
(like everybody else around here does) it 's
rea ll y n o t a bad deal.

If you are interested in working during
vacations, it's bt'st to work for peop le (Li brary , Business Office, etc.) that continue
operations through vacation .
STUDENT PAY
Pay rates to r student empl oyees start at
fiv e diff ere nt leve ls, ra n g ing from

Stude nts working during vacat io ns sometimes have the option of work ing qu arter-,
half - or full-time. Some studen t emp loyees

~II~CURRICULUM~~
The funct ion of the progra m secretary
i~ to try to help students , fac ult y a nd ad-
mini strators "promote the goal of ed ucation " by helping to solve problems crea ted
by a bureaucratic system.
The program se~retary is a n excell ent
resource. She / he usua ll y can provide yo u
wi th not only the "right " answers but
often can help you do wha t you want to
do more efficient ly a nd easi ly.
The program secretaries are defi nitely
overworked, but for the most part are
very amenab le to dea ling w ith your questions. It seem s that when st udents know
how to do somet hing it makes it a lo t
eas ier on the program secretary.
If you have a quest io n , it's a good pl ace
to go ; they know a lot about what goes
on aro und here.
HOW TO GET
AN INDIVIDUAL CONTRACT
AT EVERGREEN
COORDINA TED STUDIES
Coord inated studies are interdiscip linary, mu lti-faculty programs cen ter ed
aro und a n idea or theme, as the titles of
the 1975 - 76 programs indicate: Africa
a nd the United States; Environments:
Perception and Design; Ethics and Politics; and Working in America, to mention
only a few. The facu lty members, usually
four o r five , have varying interdiscipl in ary backgrounds and thus are ab le to contribute id ~as from different disciplines.
Integrating a program having severa l
faculty and several disciplines into one
unified whole is tricky, and some programs ne\,er make it. Or sometimes personality clashes among the faculty members undermine the program 's unity. You
can't pred ict personality clashes unless
you know the Evergreen faculty well , and
even then it may be d ifficult. But you ca~
somet imes make subjective judments
about whether the academic aspects of the
program are pretty well together just by
asking questions of the facu lty members
at the Academic Fair.
For instance, ask faculty members
about the objectives of the program you're
interested in , and about the weekly schedule, the readings, w hether students will be
doing any writing, and if so, what k inds.
Ask them to explain the basic ideas of the
program and how they plan to develop
those ideas throughout the quarter or
year . Ask about the facu lty's backgrounds
and w hat each is expected to contribute to
the program, both in the area of ideas
and in specific disciplines , skills, methods
or whatever. Ask how the facu lty members plan to run their seminars, and how
they plan to evaluate students. And ask
any other questions that seem important
to you or that help you to make an informed judgment about the program .
D~)n't be afraid to ask questions; you 're
ab0ut to invest three , six, or nine months
mea ns a b o ut 140 students, though in the
past severa l hundred students have had
individual contracts eac h quarter. However, faculty members who are teaching
in other m odes (i.e., coordinated studies
and gro up contracts) may also take a few
indi v idua l co ntract students if they wish.
If you have a truly exciting academic
project in mind a nd also have the self discipline to ca rry it thro ugh m os tl y o n
your own , then check o ut the faculty in
the individual contract pool. Their backgrou nds a nd interests are described in the
. Ca ta log Supp lemen t. If none of them
seem right fo r your project, or if they're
a ll filled up with st udents, see Academic
Advising in lab 1008 during registration
week. Ask ab o ut other po tentia l faculty
spo nsors. Make a list of fac ult y members
whose exper ti se would be a n aid in yo ur
project.
of yo ur li fe and a heck o f a lot of mo ney
an academic program , and you sho uld
be as sure as possible that it's the right
program for yo u .
T he differences between basic, divi siona l a nd adva nced coordinated st udies
are explained in the Ca talog Supplement.
Genera ll y, if you 're a third-year transfer
st udent , a basic program w ill not be sufficientl y cha ll e nging for yo u. That isn 't always true , however, depending on the
program a nd yo ur own interests. C heck
o ut the programs carefu lly , especially
those that offer sub jects that interest yo u .
If a program comes close to yo ur specia l
interest(s), b ut doesn 't quite focus on
w hat you wa nt, ask the faculty if they
wou ld consider any addi ti ons or a lterations in conten t. Your field of interest
may fit well w ith the program , but the
fac ult y may not have thought of it.

There are two kinds of con tracted studies, individual contracts a nd group contracts. Both provide opportunities for
more specia lized k inds of study, as the
titles of the 1975 - 76 group contracts suggest: The Artist Class; Ceramics; Mexico; Understa nding Poetry; Linguistics;
and numerous others.
A group contract usually has one faculty member a nd approximately . 20 students. (Coordinated studies typically have
four faculty members and about 80 students.)
Again, in decid ing on a group contract,
it is wise to ask questions about the program, its aims, ideas, read ings, schedule,
a nd eva luation techniques. It's also wise
to be certain you're personall y compatible
with the faculty member - group con tracts , because of their size, tend to be
more intimate lea rning situations. If yo u
and the fac ulty member d o n 't ge t a long, it
can be miserable for both of you.
Individual contracts are just that: a
contract between an individual student
a nd a fac ulty member specifying w ha t the
student is to stud y and what kind of assistance the fac ult y member will provide.
The student does most of the study ing or
crea tm g o r whatever on his or her own'
indi vid u a l contract stude nt s genera ll ;
mee t on ly once a week w ith their faculty
members , usuall y for abo ut an hou r
w hich isn 't much .
'
Individual cont racts are lo nely. You're
not, part of a sem inar o r a program;
you re on yo ur own. Unless you are ready
for that ~ind of loneliness, have a really
worthw hd e (to you) project in mind, and
are very self-d iscip lined, avoid individual
contracts. You may find at the end of the
quarter that you haven't done much, and
also haven't received credit because your
fac ulty sponsor knows you haven't done
much.
Individual cont~acts have always been
popu lar with Evergreen studen ts, but are
less so with deans and some of the faculty. One of the deans, Rudy Martin,
who's been in charge of curriculum, has
tried hard to reduce the number of individua l contracts and seems to have succeeded: there are only seven faculty members in the individual contract pool this
coming year. Seven faculty members
Sooner or later, if you stay at Evergreen , it is likely that you will want to get
a n indi v idual cont ract. The a dva ntages of
doing so are severa l - you're able to
study just what you please, a t your own
rate, unrestricted by ma nda tory a ttend a nce at book sem inars, lectu res, etc.
(However, a newcomer shouldn 't expect
to be able to pursue outrageous or frivo lo us subjects - it 's very wise to have
yo ur head together and be serious about
w hat yo u 'd lik e to do.) Frequently
th o ug h , the problem is not one of an "un deserving" student gett ing a contract, but
the reverse; se ri ous st udents being forced
into so me obscu re coordinated study or
o ut of sc hoo l a ltoget her because they
ca n't find a spo nsor. You might suspect
that there a re some tricks to it. There are.
The fo ll owi ng is a brief rundown of some
of the fine poi nt s of contrac ting that you
won't find in the College Cata log.
Finding a Sponsor
The most impo rtant thing to understand
abo ut finding a facu lty sponsor is th at
you have to fi nd him / her - no one w ill
do it for you and the sponsor won 't come
to you. Despite w ha t m ay be implied in
the Cata log , the Registrar's Office rarely
if eve r Fincls contracts for any studen ts. If
you want o ne , you're go ing to have to do
it yourse lf.
Since sponsors must be facu lt y or staff
members (a nd are usua ll y the former), it
foll ows that the more o f these people yo u
know , and know so me of their backgrou nds, the better your chances of finding someone to work with you. One littleknown document contains profi les (educational histories and academic interest:.) of
a lm ost a ll the faculty (115) . These profiles
are more extens ive than the ones in back
of the Cata log. This document is ca lled
"The Geoduck Cookbook" and is availab le from e ither th e Info Center or Dean
Rudy Mart in\ secrc tJr y. It should be lIsed

many of the fac ulty members are not fond
of the descripti o ns in the Cookb ook.
As another sou rce of informa tion , i·t's
a lso advisable to talk to as many of yo ur
friends as possib le abo ut how they like
their sem ina r leade rs, etc. O ne thing you
w ill quickly lea rn here is that it's not the
program descripti on that counts, but who
the faculty in a giv en program are. Great
fac ulty members will do at least fa irl y
well even if they' re in a p rogra m far from
their own particu lar background. But a
p rogram description written by Hemingway won't save a coordinated study from
a lo usy facu lt y member. In generaL grab
a ll the tidbits of in fo rm at io n o n fac ult y
fro m a ny source possible - friends, the
Newslette r, the student paper, whatever.
Knowing the faculty is not only a key to
ge tting a contract, bu t to many ot her
projects as well .
The Art of Subcontracting
A no the r trick that's not always understood is that yo u don 't have to find a
sponsor th at's ski ll ed in the a rea you p lan
. to work. A ll it takes is one wi lling to
sign . let me give some examples.
O ne time I was inv o lved in a film proj ect but co uldn 't find a facu lty spo nsor
who was sk illed in filmmaking. There
were o nl y three that knew a nything about
it a nyway, a nd a ll were tied up in coordina ted studi es a nd didn ' t wa n t a contract
o n the side. So sin ce the fi lm was going to
be about a high school , I ca ll ed it an "Ex plorat ion of Ed uca ti onal Reform" a nd just
inserted the film at the end , in the part
w here it asks how to tell w hen th e
contract's completed. In this way I was
ab le to work wi th a fine facu lty member
w hose expertise wasn't film but still get
the co ntract. Often times a change of
wo rding or empha sis li ke this can make it
accep table to o ne individu al but still
a ll ow yo u to do w hat yo u o rigina ll y
p la nned.
If rewording won't do it , YOll may have
to go through a subco ntractor . A subcon trac to r is someone who's sk illed in what
you want to study and is willing to -wo rk
with yo u , but who isn't an Evergreen facult y or staff member. In this case you st ill
have to find a regular sponso r as well .
The nifty thing is that now you're officia ll y released from having to have the Evergreen sponsor be knowledgeable in the
subj ect a rea, because the subcon tractor
takes ca re of that. Typically the sponsor
just reads eva luat ions of your work by
the subcontractor at the end of the qua r ter a nd wri tes their eva luation based on
this . For example, o ne guy I know wanted
to stu dy computers. He got a subcontractor in a commercia l data processing company a nd then had a facu lty member he
knew be the sponsor. (He was forced to
go the subcontractor ro ute because Ever green' s o nl y faculty member ski lled in
computers was tied up in a coordinated
stud y.)
Some exa mples of possibl e subcontractors are; sta te legisla to rs (when in season ),
Washington State governmen t officia ls,
park ra nge rs, lawyers, bankers, li b rarians,
dancers, musicians, reporters, graphi cs designers, book b inders, seamstresses, fil m
direc to rs, a nd a ll kinds of other people
no t usua lly assoc iated with schoo ls who're
doing interesting things . The point is just
because no facul ty members know the
subject yo u wa nt to study doesn 't mean it
can't be successfull y cont racted.
The Mythology of ' Advanced' Contracts
When o ne reads the section on "contracted studies" in the Catalog, .one finds
the fo ll owi ng note - " ... indi vidual
contracts will normally be most useful for
advanced students co ntinuing their studies
at Evergreen ." T his is italicized, to boot.
Its meaning? Simply that contracts at a
beginner's level. in anyt hing, are frowned

HOW TO GET
AN INDIVIDUAL CONTRACT
AT EVERGREEN
COORDINA TED STUDIES
Coord inated studies are interdiscip linary, mu lti-faculty programs cen ter ed
aro und a n idea or theme, as the titles of
the 1975 - 76 programs indicate: Africa
a nd the United States; Environments:
Perception and Design; Ethics and Politics; and Working in America, to mention
only a few. The facu lty members, usually
four o r five , have varying interdiscipl in ary backgrounds and thus are ab le to contribute id ~as from different disciplines.
Integrating a program having severa l
faculty and several disciplines into one
unified whole is tricky, and some programs ne\,er make it. Or sometimes personality clashes among the faculty members undermine the program 's unity. You
can't pred ict personality clashes unless
you know the Evergreen faculty well , and
even then it may be d ifficult. But you ca~
somet imes make subjective judments
about whether the academic aspects of the
program are pretty well together just by
asking questions of the facu lty members
at the Academic Fair.
For instance, ask faculty members
about the objectives of the program you're
interested in , and about the weekly schedule, the readings, w hether students will be
doing any writing, and if so, what k inds.
Ask them to explain the basic ideas of the
program and how they plan to develop
those ideas throughout the quarter or
year . Ask about the facu lty's backgrounds
and w hat each is expected to contribute to
the program, both in the area of ideas
and in specific disciplines , skills, methods
or whatever. Ask how the facu lty members plan to run their seminars, and how
they plan to evaluate students. And ask
any other questions that seem important
to you or that help you to make an informed judgment about the program .
D~)n't be afraid to ask questions; you 're
ab0ut to invest three , six, or nine months
mea ns a b o ut 140 students, though in the
past severa l hundred students have had
individual contracts eac h quarter. However, faculty members who are teaching
in other m odes (i.e., coordinated studies
and gro up contracts) may also take a few
indi v idua l co ntract students if they wish.
If you have a truly exciting academic
project in mind a nd also have the self discipline to ca rry it thro ugh m os tl y o n
your own , then check o ut the faculty in
the individual contract pool. Their backgrou nds a nd interests are described in the
. Ca ta log Supp lemen t. If none of them
seem right fo r your project, or if they're
a ll filled up with st udents, see Academic
Advising in lab 1008 during registration
week. Ask ab o ut other po tentia l faculty
spo nsors. Make a list of fac ult y members
whose exper ti se would be a n aid in yo ur
project.
of yo ur li fe and a heck o f a lot of mo ney
an academic program , and you sho uld
be as sure as possible that it's the right
program for yo u .
T he differences between basic, divi siona l a nd adva nced coordinated st udies
are explained in the Ca talog Supplement.
Genera ll y, if you 're a third-year transfer
st udent , a basic program w ill not be sufficientl y cha ll e nging for yo u. That isn 't always true , however, depending on the
program a nd yo ur own interests. C heck
o ut the programs carefu lly , especially
those that offer sub jects that interest yo u .
If a program comes close to yo ur specia l
interest(s), b ut doesn 't quite focus on
w hat you wa nt, ask the faculty if they
wou ld consider any addi ti ons or a lterations in conten t. Your field of interest
may fit well w ith the program , but the
fac ult y may not have thought of it.

approve rs of a contract). Some faculty
members are also reluctant to take contracts at a beginning level, especially from
students they don 't know.
This wasn 't the case o riginally . But
soo n following Evergreen' s first year of
operation , a move began to force all beginning-level education into coordinated
st udies and reserve individual contracts
for advanced work. This was formalized
in the first " Quinault Report ," November
19 72, p. 2: " N o individual co ntract
sho uld be for introductory work o r basic
skill development. ·' Since this ca n clearly
ge t in th e way , how does one get around
it? There are severa l ways. First , the sentence cit ed above (" No contracts ," etc.) is
imm ediately fo ll owed with thi s phrase :
" unl ess impossib le to acquire by any other
m eth od. " This is a giant loophole of
co urse , and a useful o ne. It just mean s
yo u go check what's happening in other
prog rams and make sure your project is
substantially different (often the case any wa y).
Another disguise is to co uch yo ur introdu ctory w o rk as a part of a n advanced
p ro jec: in so mething related. For instance ,
yo u ma y want to try so me lithography
fo r a quarter , a nd have never done it be fo re. T o be sure yo ur contrac t goes
thro ugh , yo u mi ght pose the lith ography
work as pa rt of a la rge r , "adva nced "
stu dy in , say, " Graphic Desi gn in America " o r " Hand - Printing Methods " or
so me thin g else you know a nd can so und
advan ced in ,
A fina }. tri ck is just to in sert the word
" a dvanC e d " .:; o ;neplace where it l oo~s

Sin ce thi s is a ll they 're look ing for any way, it cd n sa ve y o u sO rTIe trouble . Beyon d loo kin g for so me ass ura nce th a t it is

Most college students have some type

w here 300 words a minute is considered a
minimum, Or maybe you can' t write or
spell or punctuate very welL Or your
m a th isn't too good . Learning Services
C enter provides helpful , individualized instruction designed to overcome whatever
study handicap you have in the shortest
possible time , All you have to do is take
yourself to LRC to find out about their
serv ices, which are free and are provided
by regular faculty members assigned to
LRC.
INTERNSHIPS
Int ern ships a re one of Evergreen's most
exciting features, Through internships ,
st udents can get work experience (sometimes paid) and explore career possibiliti es while receiv ing college credit. In
ma n y cases , an internship offers learning
op portunities superior to what can be offered o n campus, particularly for the advanced stude nt. If you are an advanced
student , especially one who wants to specia li ze in a particular field , and there isn 't
a program o n cam pu s that meets your
needs, co nsid er an internship.
Eve rgreen has a department that does
nothing but devel o p and watch over in te rn ships, It 's called Coo perative Educatitln , a nd the list of internships available
tn Eve rg reeners thro ugh Coop Ed is impress iv e. Inte rnships can be found in
mJn y area s of interest, and a student at
Eve rgreen may receive up to two years of
academic credit while participating in in te rn s hips. Most internships are off-campus
thl1 ug h th ere are so me here at the college,
t (l(l.
T L' take pa rt in an internship , yo u ha ve
tll be enro lled in a coordinated st udies
program o r co ntra cted st udy , either individ ual o r group . Many programs offer in :ern ships during one 01 m o re quarters of
th e prllgra m , so consider a coordinated
studies or group co ntract that includes intern ships if there's one th a t suits your interests because individu a l contract spon so rs a re sca rce and seem to be getting
scarcer , But if yo u can 't match up a prog ra m and an internship , then look for a
fac ulty member to spo nsor an individual
contract.
Internships may be either full or parttime , They require some work on your
part and they often require skills and
knowledge, too , Coop Ed can provide
y<'> u with information about the qualifications for various kinds o f internships, as
well as information about the hours you'll
be expected t'o work, what you'll be expected to do , whether or not any travel
(other than travel to and from the internship) is involved, and the pay , if any .
Once you have located an internship
and a faculty sponsor, a contract is drawn
up between you, the internship field supervisor, the faculty sponsor, and the
Coop Ed office, The contract may include
academic work (e ,g " related reading) as
well as your field work, Keep the commitments you make in that contract - good
internships have been lost forever because
some student messed around instead of
doing what he or she had promised to do .
Make sure your intern supervisor keeps
his or her end of the bargain, too. If the
supervisor promised you training, insist
that you recei\l.e it - politely, 'of course .
If your internship contract calls for research, don't get stuck with full-time secretarial duties. (If that happens, talk to
your faculty sponsor and the Coop Ed
office about the problem.) Above all ,
don't just walk out on an internship, even
if you have a personality conflict with
your field supervisor , Let Coop Ed and
your sponsor help you work out a ' solution , For ~ne thing, Coop Ed needs to
know about a bad internship so they,
won't place another student in the same
situation,
The right internship can provide you
with impressive additions to your portfolio : examples of work done for a real
live employer and recommendations that
will assist you after you graduate and are
seeking a permanent job or entrance into
graduate schooL So cho<;>se your internship carefully and only when you are
ready for it , which usually means in your
third or fourth year of colle~e ,
EV ALVA tIONS
The evaluations you receive from fac ulty members will describe and evaluate
your academic studies and skills, and
your participation in a particular program. Since different faculty members
vary somewhat in the way they write
evaluations, it isn ' t possible to be much
more specific than that. Generally, an in dividual conference will be scheduled during evaluation week when you'll meet
with your faculty member to discuss her I
his evaluation of you and your evaluation
of your own work. Some faculty members
insist on rec~iv~ ng your self-evaluation
prior to the conference so they can read it
in advance and possibly incorporate some
of the information in their eva luation of
you,
Your official Evergreen transcript con sists of these faculty and self-evaluations,
plus any evaluations you may have from
field supervisors on internships . It's a
good idea to remember that when writing
self-evaluations, because any humor or
four-letter words you include now will
still be there five years from now and
may not be so funny then , Graduate
schools and empluyers probably will no t
be amused at alL
So, take your evaluations seriously and
write something that will be useful to you
now and later, Generally speaking, that
means a reasonably specific and complete
(but limited to one page - that's all the
Registrar will accept per quarter) description of what you've read, written , and
participated in during the quarter in your
program or contract, and what you feel
you have learned from your own and the
faculty's efforts,
Program and faculty evaluations are
frequently requested or required, and
should be submitted separately. Praise
and criticism of the program and I or fac ulty can legitimately be included in your
self-evaluations if they relate directly to
what you learned or failed to learn , and if
there is sufficient space to include them ,
But keep in mind that your self-evaluation
is just that - an evaluation of what you
did or did not do, what you learned or
did not learn, perhaps as compared with
what you hoped to do and learn ,
Your written self-evaluation, typed on
the correct form (available from program
secretaries) is due by the end of the quarter. The faculty member's (or staff member's, if you have a staff sponsor) evaluation of you is due no later than two
weeks after the ending date of the program, Due , that is, in the program secretary's office, where it still must be typed
and . processed , (For additional information, see the section on the policy for
completion of academic work and
awarding of credit at the end of the Cata log Supplement ), Because of the time re quired to type all of the faculty evaluations, students often do not receive their
copies for a month or more after the end
of the quarter , If more than a month
elapses after the quarter or year - most
programs are an academic year in length
and evaluati,o ns are not sent to the Registrar until the end of the year - a nd you
have not received your copy of your evaluation, check with the program secretary ,
If your address has changed during the
year and you have not notified the secretary of the change, your evaluation may
have been mailed to the wrong address.
PORTFOLIOS
Each Evergreen student receives a red
plastic envelope to be used as a portfolio,
Your copies of your evaluations, by faculty members and by you, should be
placed in this portfolio. Examples of your
work, at Evergreen or other colleges,
should also be included as well as any
other materials that are pertinent to your
studies at college ,
If you are an intern during your time at
Evergreen, the original copies of eval ua tions by your field supervisor(s} should be
placed in y our portfolio, Often , these are
typed on the s tationery o f the age ncy or
firm where you were an intern, and can
be used as par t o f yo ur resume' if you
seek emp lo yment after graduation ,
Your portfoli o is your responsibility ,
even though facult y members frequently
want to exa mine student portfo lios when
enrolling student s in a program, (perhaps
students sho uld ask to see faculty portfolios before the y sign up with a program ,) Look a ft f't your portfolio and its
content s, a nd a dd to it regularly , be.c ause
it ca n be ve ry va luab le to y ou both while

approve rs of a contract). Some faculty
members are also reluctant to take contracts at a beginning level, especially from
students they don 't know.
This wasn 't the case o riginally . But
soo n following Evergreen' s first year of
operation , a move began to force all beginning-level education into coordinated
st udies and reserve individual contracts
for advanced work. This was formalized
in the first " Quinault Report ," November
19 72, p. 2: " N o individual co ntract
sho uld be for introductory work o r basic
skill development. ·' Since this ca n clearly
ge t in th e way , how does one get around
it? There are severa l ways. First , the sentence cit ed above (" No contracts ," etc.) is
imm ediately fo ll owed with thi s phrase :
" unl ess impossib le to acquire by any other
m eth od. " This is a giant loophole of
co urse , and a useful o ne. It just mean s
yo u go check what's happening in other
prog rams and make sure your project is
substantially different (often the case any wa y).
Another disguise is to co uch yo ur introdu ctory w o rk as a part of a n advanced
p ro jec: in so mething related. For instance ,
yo u ma y want to try so me lithography
fo r a quarter , a nd have never done it be fo re. T o be sure yo ur contrac t goes
thro ugh , yo u mi ght pose the lith ography
work as pa rt of a la rge r , "adva nced "
stu dy in , say, " Graphic Desi gn in America " o r " Hand - Printing Methods " or
so me thin g else you know a nd can so und
advan ced in ,
A fina }. tri ck is just to in sert the word
" a dvanC e d " .:; o ;neplace where it l oo~s
goo d (lik e in the title o r purposes section).
Sin ce thi s is a ll they 're look ing for any way, it cd n sa ve y o u sO rTIe trouble . Beyon d loo kin g for so me ass ura nce th a t it is
ind eed "advanced " a t least o n the surface ,
con tra cts a re rarely examined further ,
Wh y Bother, Anyway?
Fo r some new co mers to Evergreen, it
rr.ay see m lik e a co ntract might not be
wo rth th e hassle. He re are so me final
thought s o n the v a lu e of an individual
co ntra ct.
In two ' education cla ss ics, Education A s
A S l-lb ve rsiv e A cti vity and The Student
A s N igge r, th e a uth o rs point ou t that the
rea l subj ec t m a tt er in a schoo l is not
w ha t'., in the tex tb oo ks but the structure
of the sc ho o l. Wh o reme mber s hi g h
sc hool Spanish or a lgebra , for example?
But what we all learn ed, very subtly , was
h ow to obey, h ow to take o rders and
tests a nd how to fo ll ow so meo ne else's
map to wisd o m. Even here at Evergreen .
the students in many programs end up
mostly just d oi ng wha t they're told ,
In my o pinion, o nl y in a n individu a l
co ntract does a perso n have a chance to
d evelop the ability to teach o neself, The
particular su bject you happe n to stucl y is
less importa nt tha n the fac t that maybe
fo r the first time in yo ur life, you decide
for yourself what a nd how to stud y it.
The nurturing a nd exercisin g of thi s ability to make one's ow n educational decisions is a sk ill th a t ca n prove invaluable
for t he rest of your life, With it. yo u ca n

In add iti o n to this freed o m , in an indi vidual co ntrac t one ge ts a n opportunity to

LEARNING SERVICES CENTER
Most college students have some type
of lea rning problem , Maybe you're a slow
rea der - to o s l ~w for college, anyway,
w here 300 words a minute is considered a
minimum, Or maybe you can' t write or
spell or punctuate very welL Or your
m a th isn't too good . Learning Services
C enter provides helpful , individualized instruction designed to overcome whatever
study handicap you have in the shortest
possible time , All you have to do is take
yourself to LRC to find out about their
serv ices, which are free and are provided
by regular faculty members assigned to
LRC.
INTERNSHIPS
Int ern ships a re one of Evergreen's most
exciting features, Through internships ,
st udents can get work experience (sometimes paid) and explore career possibiliti es while receiv ing college credit. In
ma n y cases , an internship offers learning
op portunities superior to what can be offered o n campus, particularly for the advanced stude nt. If you are an advanced
student , especially one who wants to specia li ze in a particular field , and there isn 't
a program o n cam pu s that meets your
needs, co nsid er an internship.
Eve rgreen has a department that does
nothing but devel o p and watch over in te rn ships, It 's called Coo perative Educatitln , a nd the list of internships available
tn Eve rg reeners thro ugh Coop Ed is impress iv e. Inte rnships can be found in
mJn y area s of interest, and a student at
Eve rgreen may receive up to two years of
academic credit while participating in in te rn s hips. Most internships are off-campus
thl1 ug h th ere are so me here at the college,
t (l(l.
T L' take pa rt in an internship , yo u ha ve
tll be enro lled in a coordinated st udies
program o r co ntra cted st udy , either individ ual o r group . Many programs offer in :ern ships during one 01 m o re quarters of
th e prllgra m , so consider a coordinated
studies or group co ntract that includes intern ships if there's one th a t suits your interests because individu a l contract spon so rs a re sca rce and seem to be getting
scarcer , But if yo u can 't match up a prog ra m and an internship , then look for a
fac ulty member to spo nsor an individual
contract.
Internships may be either full or parttime , They require some work on your
part and they often require skills and
knowledge, too , Coop Ed can provide
y<'> u with information about the qualifications for various kinds o f internships, as
well as information about the hours you'll

Evergreen governance sy ndro me of "Power confu ses, absolutely powe r confuses
absolutely. "
The thr ee bi g words in Ev e rg reen
governance a re "acco unt ab le," "loca ta bl e"
and "responsive. " Ha, ha. If you sho uld
ever seek o ut a dec ision-make r and ge t
hIm/ hIm to admit to it , yo u're still like ly
~o fInd out that a ny cha nge in th at po li cy
IS now out of th eir co nt ro l. But don't
worry , yo u 're no t lik ely to find t hem
anyhow.
A document as idea listic as th e COG , is
only as stro ng as its weakest interpreter.
Frequent appearance of wo rd s li ke
"avoided" indica te good intenti o ns eas il y
suscept ible to eros io n for the sak e of
bureaucratic convenience. Likewise severa l recurring reminders of th e ro le '~ f the
Board of Tru stees (BOT) point out how
tenuou s a ny d ec is io n made by a n
Evergreen governing body rea ll y is. M ost
any decision is subj ect to BOT re view
upon th eir req uest .
THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES
Every college has a Board of Trustees
as a top ranked ruling body a nd buffer
zone between th e co ll eges a nd th e
legislature. All oca ti o n a nd di sburseme nt
of funds , as well as general ove rsee in g of
the school , are th e ma in function o f th e
Board , That's no sma ll smat ter in g o f
power. But , every Washington co ll ege has
one, so th ese comments are d irec ted a t th e
BOT syndrome a nd are not a person a l
affront to Evergreen's Tru stees in parti cular .

The Trustees are n o t unlike th e sc hoo l

with in high school. They a re middl e to
upper - middl e c lass c iti ze n s , ge n erally
business p e r so n s and a re about 3S
removed from the st ude nt s a nd co ll tge
scene as co uld be im agi ned. T here were
no Evergreen w hen they were co ll ege age,
so the entire concept is fore ig n to them .
Surely, many may be understanding a nd
somewhat sy mpa th etic , but the comp let e
lack of Tru stee and student communication assimilate the ruling situ a ti on wit h
other typical U , S. government set-ups
(e .g. Nel so n Rockefeller c la imin g t o

flY BY NIGHT TOUR GUIDE
TO THE OLYMPIA AREA
/\ huilding in the Dorm complex
and surrounding greenery.
., '
by L.S. Defrique
In this underground tour guide to The
Evergreen State College and the surrounding Olympia area, I have tried to include
the quiet, beautiful and unusual places to
go. The list is not long. That should tell
you something about Olympia.
I will begin with the quiet places to go.
1. When looking for quiet places one
needs not look further than one's own
back yard, the woods and beaches that
surround The Evergreen State College. Although wet most of the year round, they
hold definite possibilities for peace and
quiet for those times when you are planning a quiet afternoon at home and . your
roommate decides to throw a Tuesday after lunch party.
The beach is easily accessible by going
down the "Nature Trail" located at the
back of Parking Lot F.
2. Another quiet place is located on the
east side of Olympia and is caIled Priest
Point Park, Priest Point Park is equipped
with picnic tables, camping areas, and
playground goodies as well as a swimmable beach .
To reach Priest Point Park, take 4th
Ave, through downtown Oly. , take a left
on East Bay Dr. and follow signs.
3. Kaiser Pond's only redeeming quality
is its convenience. One basic fact about
Kaiser pond is the fact that there has not
been a bathing suit to darken its shores in
approximately three years.
To get to Kaiser pond from the library ,
go out to the Evergreen Parkway and take
a left , go down the Parkway past Overhulse Rd . to Kaiser Rd . Take a right on
Kaiser and go down Kaiser Rd. just past
14th where there is a dirt driveway on the
left; that's it.
So much for the quiet and peaceful. let
us continue to the unusual.
The list of unusual places to go in
Olympia although small was compiled by
a group of Evergreen "lifers" after tW()
years of hardcore tripping.
1. First on the list of the unusual is the
Capitol Building. The capitol is great for
29
daytime fun, with lots of marble and
antique beauty .
The capitol is located on Capitol Way
and easil y viewed from most any place in
downtown Olympia.
2. The next best place and truly one of
the most unusual places in Olympia is the
Highways Dept.
The capitol campus is located on
Capitol Way also and is right across the
street from the capitol itself.
The buildings are not particularly
aes theti c in their late sixties office design ,
however the grounds around the offices
a re often called "Space City," a name
given to it by th ose " lifers" I mentioned
ea rlier .
On the grounds of Space City you will
find many unusual gardens and various
sculptures created by local artists.
The capi tol campus is good for both
day and night activities.
3. We arrive at last at Sylvester Park.
Sylvester Park is located on Capitol Way
a lso .
Sylvester Park is famous for its gazebo,
a statue of Jo hn Rogers and a rock that
proclaims the end of the Oregon Trail.
4. The last, but truly not the least, on
our list of the unusual is the Olympia
Brewery.
The Olympia Brewery is located on
Capitol Way in Tumwater and is a nice
place to sto p and enjoy a free beer when
going or coming from the food stamp office . The brewery offers tours from 8 to
4: 30. Each tour is approximately 35
minutes in length and one tour leaves
every three to seven minutes.
This list should also include SOntt! of the
interesting and unusual shops and gaIIeries that are found in Olympia, places like
Radiance Herbs and Massage, Mansion
Glass, Rainbow Grocery and The Artichoke Mode, all located on 4th Ave . On
Capitol Way we have Childhood's End
Gallery and the Melting Pot Restaurant.
Well that pretty much does it. We have
everything from soup to stained glass in
our tour guide. One thing I should
mention is that some of the places listed
in this guide are not safe to be alone at,
especially during the evening, so please
take care and bring along a friend, after
all. it's always nice to share new adventures.

our list of the unusual is the Olympia
Brewery.
The Olympia Brewery is located on
Capitol Way in Tumwater and is a nice
place to sto p and enjoy a free beer when
going or coming from the food stamp office . The brewery offers tours from 8 to
4: 30. Each tour is approximately 35
minutes in length and one tour leaves
every three to seven minutes.
This list should also include SOntt! of the
interesting and unusual shops and gaIIeries that are found in Olympia, places like
Radiance Herbs and Massage, Mansion
Glass, Rainbow Grocery and The Artichoke Mode, all located on 4th Ave . On
Capitol Way we have Childhood's End
Gallery and the Melting Pot Restaurant.
Well that pretty much does it. We have
everything from soup to stained glass in
our tour guide. One thing I should
mention is that some of the places listed
in this guide are not safe to be alone at,
especially during the evening, so please
take care and bring along a friend, after
all. it's always nice to share new adventures.

month, or _4)25 cents a day . Visitors park
free and College housing residents may
utilize Parking Lot F at no added cost.
What are the alternatives? Car pools,
riding the buses, riding a bike and
hitching. There are two bus systems
serving Evergreen--the city bus and the
Evergreen bus--see ads on page 48 and 10,
respectively. Riding a bike can be
troublesome because it rains or is wet
most of the time . If you're coming from
downtown, there's a steep hill to face
coming into Westside . But once you're on
the Westside the going is smooth. The
easiest way to get to Evergreen once
you're on the Westside is to go down
Harrison to Division, turn right on
Division , Division to Cooper Point Road,
and then follow the signs to Evergreen.
Hitching around Olympia can be fairly

It has become o bvious to many people
that this structure under the present guide lines (a copy is available in the Activities
Office) has severe deficiencies . The board
has no popular mandate; it does not have
to represent student views . The process of
member selection, under th e pre s ent
guidelines, is riddled with chance and arbitrariness. Consequently , board members
find it very difficult to set badly needed
policy. Usual\y bo I'd member s have
skirted fundamental issues to concentrate
on areas of the proposal that are inconsistent with other proposals (like cutting the
proposed travel money down t o an
amount comparable with that granted to
other groups) , that are clearly extravagant
or that are unrealistic.
A sense of need for policy and of priorities is developing slowly . The beginnings
of a policy on increasing and guaranteeing
input of Third World People (the Third
World Reserve) in S&A groups developed
this spring, and should be carried out
through this year. So far it has been hampered by misinformation and resentment
because of the inadequate community dis cussion on this issue . It is imperative th a t
somehow policies on broad areas of S&A
fees must be set within this next year ;
hopefully with maximum possible com munity involvement. If not, S&A Board
decisions will fall into the morass of e';';en
grosser a rbitra riness and int eres t gro u p
press uring.

OFFICE OF PUBLIC RELATIONS
Mostly responsible for Evergreen's image
to the community and preserving or creating as much respectability as a college
could have. Publishes the Catalogue , Happenings, Newsletter, and various bro chures. The Public Relations Office also
maintains the Information Center Kiosk in
the CAB lobby. Evergreen's weekly schedule of events is the Happenings , usually to
be found along with the Newsletter at the
Information Center and on sporadic bulletin boards. Happenings submissions are
made at the Info Center . The Newsletter,
which comes directly out of the Public In formation Office, reports news items which
affect the college and is, again, carefully
positive of the College's image . Newsletter
reports are never analytical or in depth ;
just good old, fashioned news stories.
THE COOPER POINT JOURNAL - Security knows who's tripping all those

PRINT SHOP / GRAPHICS - This writer
chooses to talk about these two autonomous institutions together since I feel they
should be somehow. But first, how to use
their services.
First of alL both the print shop and
graphics are designed to serve the needs
of the college . The print shop, located in
the basement of the library, is actually a
copy center. It can't handle anything over
standard 8 1fz x 11 and 8 1/ 2 x 14 sized
sheets. The quality is passable, not great.
For school business charge it to your budget number. They'll also do cash jobs for
personal requests as long as there is an
Evergreen affiliation. They can print,
fold and staple you a small book. If
there's a special need, big runs, oversized
paper, colored ink, etc. and it's official
business it could be sent to the state
printer downtown, the print shop's big
daddy down in the General Administration Bldg . Forms may be obtained in the
Business Office . The print shop sometimes
runs colored ink, but it's first come, first
served after the rollers have been cleaned
and they run that color until it's timt: to
clean up again .
But here's the contradiction . The print
shop only takes camera-ready copy . They
can enlarge or reduce size. Students without layout or graphics experience might
find their first trip to the print shop frus trating .
Enter Graphics Dept. over in the media
wing for now. They anticipate a move
soon. Graphics will tell you what you
need to know to get something camera ready. If you 've got money, say a budget
to pay, it's charged back thru an interbudgetary transfer. Like the print shop
they'll also do outside jobs. Need a photo
typositor to punch out a headline, a
waxer to hold your layout tugether , get a
sign made, a logo , a business form , envelope design , or just need advice? Ask
for it. Few seem to realize the obvious relationship between printing and graphics .
It would seem more logical for both to
somehow share some information and
some communication . Both are an art art
and have the potential of doing exciting
things.
MEDIA LOAN - Has a wide variety of
media equipment ; from microphones to
movie projectors for your use . Located
right off the circulation desk in the library proper, Media Loan is constantly
changing and refining their system to re duce misuse of equipment and increase
efficiency. Regular maintenance and equipment repair 'constantly plague Media Loan
staff . For each piece of equipmen~ you
check out you must have a validated stu dent l.D . card a nd a profiCiency card indicating your technical prowess in opera ting that machine. Reorganiza ~~ will be

Information Cen ter
T he Information Center is located on
the ma in fl oor of the CAB building and is

processes on the ca mpu s, such as DTF
records, Volunteer Se rvi ces Li s t, the
co llecti o n of information about ca mpus
activities and eve nt s for distribution to
the Cooper Point Jo urn a l, KAOS a nd the
"HAPPENINGS."
If you want to put anyt hing o n the

The twenty-six member task force
attending the Lake Quinault Retreat (to
make recommendations for the college's
long-range planning) open their introduction explaining that as they sat formulating this document the Vietnam War was
coming to an end, symbolizing a world in
the midst of profound changes. This
document, they say, concerns studt.nts
growing into that changing world and so
naturally they found themselves discussing the human condition and a
curriculum that addresses it. What they
didn't know, and what Freundianly
enough fits, was that at the same time (or
shortly after) their retreat, the United
States took military action to release the
U.S. vessel Mayaquez from Cambodia;
which indicates how little change there
actually is.
The Quinault document expresses
support for the direction Evergreen was
designed to follow. But. it goes on to
read. it hopes to clarify those ideals that
have been bound up in "too much vague
rhetoric." Though, much of the original
rhetoric has been eliminated, it has only
been replaced by more vague rhetoric .
The First Principles outlined in the
Quinault recommendations begin by
admitting that most of what is learned
here will not be carried away by the
student - something most colleges refuse
to recognize. Rather, the document states,
what students will carry away is "the
ability to learn, to inquire. to examine, to
analyze and to synthesize information. " A

The document gambols along on the

document, it assumes a faculty directed

Once the introductory groundwork is

here . It is a tough decision. but probably
a wise attempt to evade an academic
Peter Principle.
Next comes the shocker . "The age of
receiving academic credit for experiencing
experience is over." (We refer you to your
dictionaries for interpretation.) Following
the official recommendation it explains
that this means a student can't rest on
past achievement for current credit
without an opportunity to extend and
improve that experience . Why in the hell
didn 't they say. that to begin with, instead
of 'Some sensationalistic attempt a t
paradox?
By the time one has completed reading
