Student
fees
board

VOLUME I NUMBER 3

Evergreen's process for
allocating student Services and
Activities fees money will begin
this month. An eight-member
student board has been randomly
selected and will soon be ready to
consider requests for funding
from the approximately $40,000
in the S and A fund .
Early last year a DTF of eight
students was assembled to draw
up a proposal for the allocation
of student funds. Their finished
and adopted proposal has not
been without
controversy.
Selection of the DTF was
disputed on the grounds that
students had no voice in it and
that it may not hilVe fairly

but the board may set some.
In the meantime proposals
should be in narrative form and
develop the following points:
assessment of need or interest,
development of the porposal,
actual functioning of activity and
an evaluation process. An
itemized budget and time
schedule for expenditures should
be included.
Anyone interested in receiving

ED participants plan
structures on campus
EXPERIMENTAL
STRUCTURES
By Charlie Buchwaiter and
Gary Norton,
Environmental Design
A group of Environmental
Design students have taken steps
toward the establishment of an
on-campus
experimental
structures area. this area will
enable members of the Evergreen
community to design, build and
live in their own structures.
People want to build domes,
zomes, yurts, tipis, A-frames as
well as more regular box-like
structures (perhaps out of
recycled materials.) It is believed
that
such
endeavors
are
educationally valid and should
therefore be located on campus.
The only stipulation is that all
structures be nonpermanent. This
is for three principle reasons:
I) As we are concerned with
the complete design cycle, we

must realize that occupancy is
not the ultimate end. The cycle
continues through dismantling
the structures.
2)
An
individual
must
disassemble his/her structure
after a determined time span to
enable subsequent groups to
participate in a similar project.
3)
Temporary
structures
preclude inevitable obsolescence.
The students first step was to
prepare a proposal including a
general statement and a tenative
timetable leading toward actual
construction. Th~ steps included
were 1) site determination, 2)
land-use
survey,
3)
developmental plan of the area,
4) research into various designs
and
the
procurement
of
resources,
and
5)
actual
construction .
Completing the first step, they
have found seven possible sites,
all situated in the western and

norther parts of the campus. The
site chosen is an area off Lewis
Road directly west of the
Library, within easy walking
distance. This site, formerly used
by a cement company, was
chosen because of its many open
areas, variety of terrains, good
but
most
access
routes,
importantly, because it was felt
that it would improve the quality
of the land.
An important part of the
project will be the assemblage of
a coherent, indepth, attractive
presentation to be submitted to
the TESC Board of Trustees, as
any move to alter the existing
campus lands must be approved
by the Board.
Anyone interested in taking
part in any or all of the stages of
the Experimental Structures
Project should either sign up on
the bulletin board in the
Jnfnm: Jtion area or contact
En•.rironmental D~sign.

TESC has been approved as a
candidate for accreditation in the
Northwest Association of
Secondary and Higher Schools,
aocontm. &o President Charles J.
McCann.
In a letter to McCann, the
association's executive director
said: "Candidates for
accreditation will be listed in the
1972 issue of Accredited
Institutions of Higher Education
for the Federation of Regional
Accrediting Commissions of
Higher Education.
Candidates usually qualify for
federally sponsored programs,
the director noted. Also, the
Veteran's Administration treats
candidates the same as fully
accredited institutions
"For students transferring to
other institutions, we recommend
that their transcripts be evaluated
as if from a fully accredited
institution," he observed.
It is almost unprecedented for
a new college to advance to
candidate for accreditation after
only one quarter of operating its
instructional program, according

to McCann. ''This is a real tribute
to our faculty, staff and students
and to the long hours that have
gone into the planning of the
coll••e duli~ tba last four
years," he said .
Evalutations for full
accreditation usually occur after
a school graduates its first major
group of students. In Evergreen's
case, this should happen within
three years.
Evergreen received
correspondent status in June,
1968, following an official visit
by a team from the association.
In September, 1971 , the college
completed an analysis report as
part of the candidate for
accreditation procedure.
A three-member association
team visited the campus on Nov.
3 to conduct a general evaluation.
The evaluation team reviewed
the college's organization, general
purposes, finances, physical
plant, library, administrative
structure, instructional staff,
educational program and general
policies and programs relating to
students.

Help yourselves
One of the original objectives of this paper is to
improve communications between programs
within the college. However, since we are
understaffed, we have not been able to gather
information on such things as special interest
groups, weekly program activities and evaluations.
First, we are asking for input from each
program - by faculty or students - to stimulate
interest and participation in program activities.
Second, we need more people to write, draw
and photograph for the paper. If you are
interested please come to our weekly planning
session tomorrow at 3 p.m. in 3216. We need
community support!

MECHA salutes Bill
Food service

LETTERS

I would like to inform the
Evergreen students of the present
food service at our school. I feel
that something should be done
about the waste of food. I used to
work as a pot washer at food
services and they wasted a hell of
alot of food. Keep this in mind
also, I only worked on weekends,
and one Sunday I could recall
them throwing out 160 pieces of
half chickens. Which could have
been used by the students or
hungry people anywhere. I feel
they could sell food at 1/2 the
price and make a clear profit
rather than giving it to the garbage
cans. If interested in doing
something about it, contact me at
horne or at school (C.A.M.I

When
some MECHA memben
approached Mr. Bill Kenworthy, of the
snack bar food service, on the question
of union and non-union lettuce we
were pleasantly surprised to hear that
Bill was well up on the lettuce issue.
He assured us that he was doing what
he could to respect the cause of the
Chicano and the union struggles. Well,
words and promises have been made
before and quite frankly, we had the
feeling that "the road to hell Is paved
withgoodintentlons:'surprlsel Today I
went to the snack bar to have a
hamburger and was about to refuse
lettuce when Bill walked up from
behind and assured me that It was
union lettuce and quite testy. He was
right and it even made me feel good to
know that the man is trying and more
important, doing it. Thanks Bill I

Grass, anyone?
To the staff of The Paper
I am interested in finding other
people on campus who want to get
together for the purpose of discussing
the writings of the German novelist
and playwright Gunter Grass. Grass is
the author of The Tin Drum, Cat and
Mouse, Dog Yean, and most recently,
Local Anesthetic.
Besides being a consummate stylist,
Gress has managed to produce a
literature which is "German" in the
way Joyce's writing is Irish: humorous,
critical, reflecting a sense of the
collective mind of postwar Germany,
with a care and undentanding that is
rare In any modem literature.

Get a hold of these books if you
haven't read them, of it you have,
contact me in Library room 2503.
Grass is also a poat, a sculptor and a
politician. Interdisciplinary Grass.

Todostapodos
(mental
irregularity)
Ignorance was the most outstanding
character that the board of trustees
was able to display at their debut
appearance at the TESC campus in
their last meeting. The large group of
minorities present weren't the least
surprised as to · the darkness that
baffled the brightest of the trustees.
Such trite cliches as "We undentand
your problems" seemed to foam from
their erratic mouths.
The govemor must have been having
a nightmare when he chose the present
board of trust- or perhaps their
similarities to each other resulted in his
neanightad judgement. The trustees
should have the knowledge and
foresight to produce some ·kind of
meaningful solutions to the student
problems but they are so busy patting
each othen ass that thay can't see
above their belts. If the board
continues trucking blindly you can
assure yourself that they will run into
a dead end when thay travel the
problem saturated street of the
Minority.

Residents want planner
for Cooper Point area
Determined to avoid another
unorganized confrontation with
the county commissioners,the
Cooper Point Association (CPA)
met last Wednesday to feel out
public opinion on a development
plan proposal for the point.
The association's interim board,
headed by Bill Dexter, Cooper
Point resident and lawyer,
proposed the hiring of a full time
planner who would draw up a
comprehensive development plan
for the point.
According to the CPA, the
county doesn't have the time or
money to produce a plan that
would "accomoda te growth on
that

reasonable
terms
consistent with the character of
the earth."
However, CPA believes that

disapproved of having the CPA
planner in the courthouse,
contending that this would
jeopardize CPA control over him.
However,
residents
were
assured that the planner would be
a CPA employe and would only
be using survey materials and
public records provided by the
county.
The biggest debate was on how
binding the completed plan
would be on the commissioners.
Several disagreed with the
optimistic
view
that
the
commissioners would accept it,
and called for organized legal and
political backing.
The immediate need of raising
the $15,000 was stressed by Ron
Clark, resident and professional
planner.
"If we don't come up with a
good plan, sometime this year

the
legislature.
In
addition
to
the
court-imposed
necessity
of
redistricting the state, this special
session of the legislature was
called by Governor Dan Evans
because there are several issues
which the governor feels should
not wait another full year before
being

legislature.
This executive-request bill
package will be presented to the
Legislative Forum by James
Dolliver, administrative assistant
to Governor Evans, at next
Tuesday's Forum. Some of the

topics to be included in ' tlie
discussion will be economic
recovery, tax reform, governmental
reform, and people-participation
type bills such as campaign
financing. Dolliver has agreed to
stay for a question and answer
session
following
his
presentation.
These sessions are free and
open to the public and will be
held on successive Tuesday
mornings in city hall beginning
with coffee at 9 a.m. followed by

Film Co-op opens
noon daily in L2129
Because
many
students,
faculty and staff at Evergreen are
interested in photography, a film
co-op has been organized to help
counter the exceptionally high
cost of film and materials.
The co-op is run on a total
non-profit basis. Membership
contributions are a minimum of
five dollars and are used as initial
capitol to buy film and supplies
at the lowest possible price.
These supplies will then be
available to members of the co-op
at cost plus any shipping charge,A
member may at any time cancel
his membership and will be
refunded his initial donation in
either cash and/or supplies. In
short money is being pooled and
buying in · large quantities,
therefore attaining the lowest
possible cost.

So far they have bought 35mm
(b&w, and color), super 8 (b&w,
and color) and a small supply of
photographic paper. As more
people join their stock will
expand to meet any individual
needs.
Film will be distributed and
memberships will be taken from
12 to 1 p.m., Monday through
Friday in Room 2129 in the
library. "Because no one is
making any bread and we all are
very busy (more interested in
taking pictures than selling film)
help will be appreciated at any
time." According to a co-op
spokesman, if you have any
questions about the co-op and
would like to see our prices
please come to Room 2129. We
need all the help and members we
can get."

Learning Workshop

Transcendental meditation
Transcendental Meditation, as
taught by Maharishi Mahesh
Yogi , is a technique practiced by
over 100,000 students in the
United
States
alone.
SIMS--Students'
International
Meditation Society--is a rapidly
growing campus movement that
describes TM in this way: "TM is
a natural technique which allows
the conscious mind to experience
increasingly more subtle states of
though until the source of
thought, the unlimited reservoir
of
energy
and
creative
intelligence, is reached."
This
simple
technique,
practiced twice a day in 15 to 20
minute periods, serves to improve
all areas of life by alleviating
stress, strain, and suffering in the
individual.
Students
who
meditate report that their studies
improve as they seem to have

more energy and greater peace of others. These results distinguish
mind. The movement has also this state from the common

housewives, states of consciousness such as
businessmen and professional waking, dreaming , sleeping, and
people who all report beneficial altered states of consciousness
as

The students will undergo an
intensive three-day training
seminar prior to beginning their

Vote, will be designed to
familiarize the students with
organizational methods and
procedures, election laws of the
states in which they will be
interning, and skills necessary to
their development as effective
interns.
After those sessions, the
students, along with 1 5 interns

the new Student Vote
organization, headquartered in
Washington, D . C. and
coordinated by Director Rock
Leveille.
Student Vote is a nationwide
program in which interns are
placed in the field to organize
and direct voter registration
drives which, hopefully, will
occur in all 50 states during the
Winter and Spring college terms.
Although efforts will concentrate
in areas of high-population
density and containing large
college and university
populations, the voter
registration drive will be
addressed to all age levels.
A non-partisan organization,
Student Vote is funded by

Hopi prophet
will speak

.

The Contemporary American
Minorities program will present
Thomas Banyacya, a Hopi
Prophet, this Wed., Jan. 12. The
times and places where he will
speak will be posted on the CAM
bulletin board. It is hoped that he
will be able to stay here for the
entire day but this has not yet
been confirmed.

voluntary contributions and by
grants from the New World
Foundation, Field Foundation,
Rockefeller Brothers Foundation,
Stern Family Fund, Norman
Foundation, Jacob Kaplan Fund,
and the Leonard and Sophie
Davis Foundation.
The 18 Evergreen students
were selected during a December
31 interview conducted in
Olympia by the West Coast
Student Vote Coordinator, Janet
Bennett of Portland. Candidates
were picked from the list of
students who previously had
made application for
politically-connected internships
through Cooperative Education
Program.
Evergreen interns include:
Charles Miller, George Barner, Jr.,
(both from the Political Ecology
Coordinated Studies Program);
Carolyn Savage, Craig Stewart,
Dick Roberts, and Tim Moore (all
from the Environmental Design
Program); Thomas Arneson,
Susan Noonan, Joe Renouard,
Erik LeRoy, and Stephen Nevel

The special session of the
Washington State Legislature
opens today, Jan. 10.
Encompassed in the many bills
that will be considered this
session are many that may have
provisions opposed to-- or
supporting--the civil liberties of
American citizens, but the
American Civil LibertiesUnion
does not know which bills take
which stand as yet.
Since the Supreme Court of
the United States is passing out
of the Warren era into a more
represive position; the ACLU is
shifting its national process from
the courts to the Legislative
process.
The local chapter is in need of
bill readers to read the proposed
laws that will be presented to the
legislature. These readers will
refer any bills of questionable
content to the lawyers employed
by the ACLU.
There is also a need for
lobbyists. Anyone interested in
assisting in reading or lobbying
for legislation coming up during
this session should get in contact
with Torrie (CAM) at 3965.

working on new program ideas

minorities studies. The members
have also been doing some public
relations work in Olympia and
surrounding
communities.
Presentations have been made to
several of the schools and plans
are underway to schedule civic
group presentations.
Briefly, these are some of the
things MECHA is into. They wish
to take this opportunity to solicit
any input from anyone wishing
to learn more aobut MECHA and
its objectives.

MECHA (Movirniento Estudiantil
Chicano de Aztlan) elected its
officers for 1971-1972 school year
in a meeting before the Christmas
holidays began. The following
persons were elected to hold
office in MECHA: Chairman Jose Rodriquez, Vice-Chairman Elena Perez, Secretary - Francisco
Tello, Treasurer- Carmen Valdez,
Public Relations - Jesus Farias,
Sounding Board Rep. - Benito
Sanchez.
MECHA has been active in the
past month with various issues
particularly with admission and
recruiting policies. They are

process works from the local to
the national leveL"
Evaluations for credit will
differ somewhat because our
Student Vote interns come from
several different Coordinated
Studies Programs," Donohue
explained. "Many of these
programs have built-in internship
options for interested students.
The Student Vote project carries
particular relevance to a number
of programs because of its direct
relationship to their group
studies.
Evergreen will assume no
expenses for the Student Vote
program, outside of some costs
incurred in contacting
prospective candidates-mostly by
long distance telephone--to set up
the internships during a holiday
period in which the college's
student literally were were
scattered throughout the
country. The Student Vote
organization will pay all travel
costs associated with the
internship program and will
provide students with food,
lodging and $20 per week in
pocket money for the entire
quarter.
"We're very excited about this
enterprise,"Donohue said. "If the
program continues-and I think it
will-we will be placing more
student interns during Spring
Quarter. These internships are
right in line with one of
Evergreen's basic objectives--to
make the learning conditions
resemble the 'real world' in which
students must function when
they leave college."
