Tuition Hike Arguments Heard
by Jill Stewart
Approximately 150 college students
joined forces Tuesday to fight against a
looming $13 million tu ition hike. Less
than a handful of Evergreeners were present at thE' state capitol to attend a hearing
on tuition bills HB 1522 and HB 1536.
The hearing centered on HB 1522, which
would make tuition a set percentage of
the actual cost of instruction. The percentages have not yet been decided .
Sides were clearly split on the issue;
with the Office of Program Planning and
Fiscal Management (OPP&FM), the
Council on Post-Secondary Education,
and the presidents of the four-year colleges and universities pushing the bill ;
and the AFL-CIO, Washington Federation of Teachers and college students
opposing it .
Arguments from both factions were
strong.
The contention by proponents of the
bill is that higher education is ir. financial
trouble and the students aren't footing
enough of the bill.
Representative Irving Newhouse, backer
of HB 1522, cited six other states where
tuition is a percentage of the actual cost
of instruction. He recommended that the
operating and tuition costs be separated
from S&A monies and that students be
charged 25 percent of that cost.
A spokesman for the community colleges suggested a system now used in Colorado, where community college students
pay 20 percent and four -year college and
university students pay 25 percent of the
cost of instruction .
Evergreeners now pay 10 - 15 percent
of the cost. The audience, largely students, was deCidedly against both bills.
The first round of applause came after
testimony by Lou Stewart, representing
the AFL-CIO. Stewart accused the bills
and their proponents of being perpetrators
of the class system, smothering the middle and lower middle classes. He called
for major tax reform to solve the problem, likening the present tuition system to
an unending circle. "They are asking you
to raise the tuition, then enrollment will
drop. They will in turn have more problems and ask for a tuition raise again, " he
said.
Major testimony for HB 1536 was
heard Friday:
That bill would add $57 to the $507 /y"
tuition Washington residents now pay to
attend the state colleges. University students would be hit hardest by 1536, paying an additional $120 for tuition, while
community college students would pay
the greatest percentage increase, $81 .
Accusations that the revenue generated
from these bills would not go to the
schools but to the state general fund were
countered by the OPP&FM, who strongly
support both bills. A spokesperson denied
that the money would go to a general
fund, calling that belief a "misunderstand ing by the press." However, she met with
an outburst of laughter when she explained
that the money would stay on campuses
but that state appropriation to the col leges will probably be cut.
Supporters of the tuition hike argue
that Washington has the lowest tuition of
the seven pace-setter states - those states
which are considered to have high quality
education, but the opposition counters
that Washington also has the lowest cost
of instruction and pays the lowest amount
of financial aid per person in the pacesetter states.
As the hearing ended a brief eruption of
protest from irate students who did not
have a chance to testify was quelled by
Chairman of the Higher Education Com mittee, Peggy Maxie and fellow students
who requested that their peers "try to
work within the system ."
Although the lines are clearly drawn on
this issue, both sides seem to agree on the
main problem - higher education is
backed into a financial corner and the
money has to come from somewhere.

Both Filmer and H~rding

SAUNA FOR
THOUGHT
To the Editor:
How long has it been since
this school has acted in a homeostatic manner? In a way when all
the little factions, fighting for
power and recognition , forgot
their own trips for a few minutes and moved in unison to the
bene'(it of ALL the students?
The level of apathy at this
sCh oo l is something that could be
reported in Psy cholo gy Today .
O ne rea son is that our school as
a <oci ety does not exist. A "sense
of co mmunity" does not exist.
W here I've been living, a great
ma ny (per capita) sauna s abound
and get fired up a lot. But there's
a spec ia l night e very month
where o ne of the people with a
larger sauna would fire it up and
around 6 (p.m.) the place would
start to fill up and soon it was a
FULL-FLEDGED COMMUNITY
FULL MOON SAUNA PARTY.
In a while, everyone would be
loosened up and starting to pick
up on the psychic energy coming
from that globular lump in the
sky. And music would start to
pour forth like it rains up here
and it was so inspired and beautiful, people would be dancin'
and clapping and stomp in' and
singin' and having a real time.
Whew! What a sense of communitylf The reason I brought
this all up is for one good, solid
thing, namely Evergreen. me
you. US. Here's my suggestion:
On the full moon every month,
close the recreation facilities to
non-Evergreeners at about 6, fire
up the men's sauna (C..lZ it's way
bigger), open it up to) both men
and women. Allow nude swimming in the pools. After that, we
all go over to the library building (4th floor) and get some
down home music together, everybody playing and clanking
and you 're hugging someone '
you 've never met and it feels
good and in our repressed society it 's what we need. The energy generated from this will
start moving all over the place
and WOW! maybe even Kormondy 'll say yes, yes, yes, in stead of everything else and
people (that's you and me) will
start smiling when it's raining
and rapport will increase and
vegetables will grow bigger and
cows will give goat's milk and
things will start to work right ,
naturally .

I came to Evergreen hom Antioch College,
one of
the
first to offer "cooperative education" - a program closely akin
to Evergreen 's internships ,
Antioch has very different requirements for graduation than
most colleges. Those requirements include 160 academic credits and eight co-op credits . Each
co-op credi t represents three
months of work. In most cases,
students graduate from Antioch
after five years rather than four.
E~ergre~n, as most other colleges, requires the equivalent of
180 academic credits.
I left Antioch in 1973 with 50
academic credits and one co-op.
I've planned to graduate in August when my money runs out
(and my patience).
The problem is this: the registrar's office claims that, because
most colleges require 180 credits
for graduation (although Antioch
doesn't) , Antioch's credit must
be made to conform. Thus , after
160 academic credits, only 20
more would be required elsewhere. Antioch's eight required
co-op credits must be considered
as equivalent to those 20 credits
'- each three month co-op thus
being worth two and a half
credits, or one-half unit.
By this time (if you've been
able to follow this) you'll realize
that it all makes a kind of sense
and is quite unfair to transfer
students. In my case, it will prevent me from graduating. I'll be
one unit short.
The registrar's office admits
that I did the work, but that, because of the reasoning stated
above, they can give me no
more than one-half unit for that
three-month job.
I will leave Evergreen in August, although I may be one unit
short of my degree. Doesn't this
situation sound unfair and ridiculous to anyone else? I would
like to know if anyone has any
ideas or feedback on this. No
one seems to know what can be
done, or even should be. I can
be contacted at -5128 on campus.
I would hate to leave Evergreen without my degree , and
without respect for such a young,

THE EVOLUTION
OF THE ESP
To the Editor:
I've been following the "ESP
Controversy" since the spring of
'75, all the time watching how
the people in charge decide to
handle the plan for assessing the
value of the Experimental Structure. It's obvious the administration feels the building is a major
problem pointing to safety,
building and fire code deficiencies as its reasons, Yet is this the
only perspective an administration can have toward such a
unique structure? I don't believe
what we're up 'against is how to
eliminate the structure by a
"community service" such as a
fire project for our school firemen or even disassembly. This is
complete non-sense.
Evolution, I believe, is what
the real issue is. Evolution of a
skeleton structure that could become a full -bodied creative environment conducive to purposes
such as environmental studies
(labs), horticulture, art studies,
writing and seminaring. The
school needs an alternative environment for such work, void
of all the concrete that pervades
this entire campus. A lot of us
truly appreciate the qualities a
textured wood environment
gives.
Myself and countless others
feel the ESP house exists as an
organic free-form monument ,
created by Evergreeners yet
never having its full opportunity
to blossom. Such buildings are
created in a special spirit and
they convey that spirit to others.
That's why so many of us feel
attached to the structure. Before
the structure has the chance to
show its potential, the administration wants it eliminated. I
don't want to see the ESP house
\
(
destroyed any more than I want
to see a cathedral smashed.
The ramifications of bringing
the building up to code, physically and financially, are not
over our heads. The financial
question is there , yes, but it sure
doesn't cost us anything to leave
it as it stands now, to find out
its price for saving. A study has
never been launched to inquire
procedures and finances needed
for 'completion, which by the
way, is happening this quarter.
I urge anyone that has had
any contact with the house in
the past to write a few words
about their times there and send
them to Mr. Kormondy, Mr.
Schillinger, and Mr. Clabaugh.
Maybe the other side- hasn't been
heard.

'ZIONIST DOVE'
To the Editor:
Here is another letter about
Zionism, in response to "Red,"
Jan . 8. I am a "Zionist dove."
Yes, there is a legitimate case for
both the Arabs and the Jews and
some Israelis and Arabs have
gotten together to at least try to
communicate. Examples: New
Outlook magazine, Between Enemies by Sana Hassan and Amos
Elon - they are in our library.
Your questions directed against
the Israelis and the current debate at the U. N. compel me to
defend my own people's position:
• The Jews were forcefully evicted from our country.
• In forced exile the "Christian"
West massacred us for various
reasons at all periods.

For 73 students in O lympia's schools, the dawn of
the" Year of the Dragon" has brought no rest from a
continuing struggle with a special problem.
The students: Vietnamese and Cambodian refugee
children. The problem: how to master an alien tongue
that has suddenly become a requisite for survival.
Until last year, the Olympia school district never
really had to worry much about a fairly specialized
aspect of language education: the English as a Second
Language (ESt) concept, or the process by which foreign speakers learn our tongue.
The April 1974 revolution in Vietnam and the subsequent inrush of refugees to this country changed all
that. To date, 250 Indochinese have found their way
to Olympia after way stops at Guam and such refugee
centers as Camp Murray near Fort Lewis .
--Last summer, says Olympia curriculum director
Dr. Richard Usitalo, a week-long crash language and
culture orientat ion at Jefferson High School drew 100
refugees, ranging from "small tykes to grandpas ." Usitalo labeled the six-hour-per-day program, which was
funded by the Neighborhood Youth Core through the
state Department of Emergency Services, "quite successful" considering a three or four day preparation
time.
Does Olympia have a proportionately large concentration of Vietnamese? Xuan Le Vu (pronounced
Swan Lee Voo), school district commissioner for the
fledgling Vietnamese ESL program, thinks so. "The
city is not so small that they are neglected and not so
big that they are lost," she explains.
Xuan Vu's job didn't exist before October 20th of
last year, when the petite 32-year-old native of
Quang Nam province set up shop on the third floor
of the Olympia school district building. Xuan was an
English teacher in a Vietnamese high school before she
obtained her master's degree in education and sociology at Michigan State University and served as instructor and counselor at the Equal Opportunity Center in Seattle.
, Xu an acts as a liaison between the parents and the
school system, functioning as interpretor since in
many cases the paren ts speak no ' English.
Xuan's operation is financed through a transitio.nal
grant from HEW through the Indochinese Migration
and Refugee Assistance Act of 1975, an emergency appropriation made by President Ford. Under that act,
$300 is granted to the local district for every schoolage refugee child with an 1-94 (immigration) number,
regardless of whether the child attends a public or private school.

Olympia recently received a $19,500 grant for the
65 Vietnamese students present at the time of application for the funds. Dr. Usitalo says a supplemental
grant for the eight additional children will be sought .
One of the most important - and the most formidable - of Xuan's diverse responsibilities is the recruitment and supervision of tutors to work every day
in the schools, teaching Vietnamese children En~lish.
How does the tutor system work? Generally, the
Vietnamese participate in regular classes during most
of the day, spending only one to three periods with
their tutor. She helps them with their other assign-
ments as well as giving them special instruction in
English.
Seven tutors, all of them women and fivp of them
present or former Evergreen students, face the daily
challenge of imparting a complex language to students
with
ages, social backgrounds, and
Gods, kings and paper dragons ushered in the
Vietnamese new year last Friday, January 29, at
Garfie ld Elementary Schoo l.
The occasion was the eve of Tet, the last day
before the Year of the Dragon. Vietnamese children
from severa l Olympia elementary schools treated
young American students from Garfield to a ce lebration that had been one month in the making more than half an hour of traditional songs, dances
and skits.
.
Girls in checkered head scarves swirled gracefully through a dance depicting the daily lives of
the buffalo shepherd children on a hillside in Vietnam. A fan dance and patriotic songs followed, all
performed in the same hearty , well-rehearsed man\ ner and without apparent stage fright.
Most productions are plagued with minor prop
failures. During a play in which the God of the
Mountain and the God of the Sea compete for the
hand of the beautiful princess, the king whose job
it was to decide between the two suitors punctuated his musings with desperate attempts to keep
his noble white beard from falling off.
The grand finale was the dramatic entrance of
two colorful stuffed paper dragons, elevated on
sticks or draped over the heads of the children who
constructed them . With that, official welcome had
been extended to the coming year .
All in all, considering the novelty of the event,
the young American audience reacted enthusiastically to their glimpse of the artistic expressions of
a foreign culture. "I don't care if you don 't like it,
one little boy told his neighbor. "We do ."

Teaching refugee children to speak English was not
in all cases the original aim of the tutors. Sue Butcher

"Steps of Progress," like the
rest of the sex offenders therapeutic life is designed and administered by the patients themselves .
The first task, which can take
up to two weeks, is to write a
complete autobiography, usually
about 12 pages. It is often extremely difficult to tell the truth
and this autobiography is carefully scrutinized by the therapy
group who have access to records to determine if it is the
truth .
The next step is to earn the
privilege of working under escort
up to 30 hours a week in the
kitchen, library, laundry, or as
an orderly. To do this one must
know the rules, recognize his
own responsible behavior, describe to the group one's own
ideal self which he writes down
and keeps to check with later,
and have some knowledge of
why he went into his "outlet"
(ward word for his criminal act).
Nter the patient has completed
the "Steps of Progress" he is
ready to leave. He must understand the behavior of himself
and others, learn to make and
accept confrontations, and act as
a leader for a period. He must
also train others in leadership
and read several popular psy'chology books like "The Intimate
Enemy," and "Your Perfect
Right." Finally, he must become
more like his ideal self, present a
plan for after discharge and
"show he can stay out of a deviant sexual outlet."
The man who explained this to
me I had wrongly assumed was a
therapist. Greg turned out to be
a patient of two years, longer
than the average 18 months because as he said he had been "really messed up," Greg had just
finished his leadership component in the program and now
was on a kind of work release,
going to school at Pacific Luth -
was an unpaid counseling intern at Capital High
SchooL working on an individual Evergreen contract ,
when Vietnamese students began to trickle in.
Xuan says that the Vietnamese pupils' strong points
ate handwriting, arts and crafts, reading and math
and science - two subjects in which they often sur pass their American classmates. Weaknesses, however.
show up in vital departments : speech and comprehen sion.
Sue Butcher expresses concern that her students at
Capital are not receiving adequate administrative attention. "Our school is not willing to recognize the
needs of an ESL curriculum," she says. "The kids are
thrown into normal classes and expected to get along.
There's a lot of faculty dissatisfaction - teachers
come to me and ask, 'What can we do? '"
The incentive to tutor is almost assuredly not financia I. Sue works full-lime, but is paid for only four
hours per day.
"It suddenly became important that they receive
uniqu'" help," she says. "I began to get a sense of my
importance in the continuum, so I went off my contract and started getting paid."
Capital foreign language counselor Terry Pullen
stressed the importance of keeping the Vietnamese to gether with the entire student body. As for the
question of a full-time teacher, he said that the quan tity of faculty for this year had been determined be fore the large influx of refugees , and that "the comin g
year might be differen!."
Observation of Sue's work during two periods in a
typical day recently revealed some of the myri ad rt' ·
wards and frustrations in an ESL program.
The first time block was devoted to helping four
boys, inhabitants o f this country now for one to si x
months. Thoai Tran , a veritable veteran at half a
year's residence in the United States, was writing
about a swim meet his team had just compe ted in.
Meanwhile, his classmates took down in writing the
saga of Mr. Jenkins , the hapless mailman, as dictated
by Sue from an ESL text called "New Hori zo ns in
English. "
" Mr. Jenkins hurries to the bus stop. He
sees the bus. He runs and tries to catch the
bus but he misses it. He waits for the next
bus. He is late for work. It is raining and
there is a puddle next to the bus stop. When
the bus comes, it splashes Mr. Jenkins."
Puddle? Sue repeats the word carefully - puddle.
Still no recognition- how does one explain a puddle?
Sue draws a picture on the board, labeling it clearly :
p-u -d-d-l-e. Puddle.
The boys filed out at the end of the period and
were replaced by Thanh Thi Le, an 18-year-old maid
with a gentle , musiG.I voice and little knowledge of
Engli~h. Thanh had worked for her family five
children and the parents - since the age of nine ,
moving with them to this country not long ago. This
was her second day in an American school and it was
understandably an ordeal.
High school students like these have greater difficulty than their younger counterparts in adapting to
the demands of an alien educational system , says
Xu an Le. Because they must move from one class to
another, they lack the security of a stable, "homeroom" atmosphere. Teachers don't often have the time
to give them special attention.
Xuan's job often places her in the role of mediator
in case of student-tutor or student-student disagree ments - "especially in high schooL " she says, "because there are so many frustrations."
The Vietnamese children will encounter uncountable
frustrations in their efforts to digest an entirely different way of perceiving and speaking . Cultural contrasts were accentuated at a recent Tet or New Year
festival staged at Garfield Elementary School (see ac companying story). Encouraging, however, is the fact
that steps are being taken to speed up the process of
adaptation by making available to the Vietnamese
that indispensable tool - the English language.
Sex Offender Program [Part 2 ]
eran University and working as a
headwaiter. He will probably be
one of the program's many successes .
Greg said because most people
come to the program feeling very
inferior they are taught assertive
training . Confrontation by peers
is constant. If on visiting night ,
an individual is not mingling,
others will walk up and ask
why, and remind him he must
deal with his problems.
Locked in jail, therapy is impossible for the sex offender. He
is not accepted by prisoners any'
more than the rest of society and
he returns to the street older,
more bitter and frustrated. These
people generally have very
"straight," conventional values
but never learned to deal with
society, women in particular.
In this program individuals
have a chance, with the support
and criticism of each other, to
gradually assume more responsibility until they can leave the
hospital to go to school or work
during the day until finally they
come back only for counseling.
The program is in danger of
being closed right now because
of citizen reaction and perhaps
politicians wanting to gain votes
in an election year. There is a
lack of information and under
standing about how -the program
works.
Last week it was announced
by Department of Social and
Health Services that a plan is being seriously considered to con vert Western State Hospital to a
maximum security prison by
1980. Most patients would go to
Seattle. But the sex offenders,
drug offenders, and criminal offenders would be put under maximum security. The eHect of this
would be are end to the therapeutic program.
Every program dealing with
people and trust will have risks,
but also will be more effective
than confinement in the .Jong
run. Compared to the penitentiary, the success is phenomenal.
Recidivism is lower, 8 % com pared to 25 % for sex offenders '
in the penitentiary. Escape is half
that at the penitentiary (2.9 % in
the Western State program, an- .
nually). The program is also
more economical because there
are no guards and the patients
volunteer therapy for each other.
The program is reminiscent of
China's revolutionary criminal
reform not commllnistic,
but
revolutionary. Problems
are dealt with in the context of
the real world. When they come
into the program, these people
have been socially dysfunctional,
but they are a product of society as well as a part. In this
program they leafn to be better
people . Mao Tse Tung said ,
"Where do correct ideas come
from? Do they drop from the
skies? No. Are they innate in the
mind? No . They come from so cial practice, and from it alone. "

To the Editor:
As the elected women's representative to the Board of Trustees, I wish to publicly commend
Barbara Spector for refusing her
appointment to the Board of
Trustees. Barbara was allegedly
picked by McCann from a computer, in opposition to the work
done by the organized women
on campus as well as that by the
Third World Coalition and the
Gay ResOlJrce Center.
Barbara called me before the
Board of Trustees meeting last
Tuesday, trying to decide what
to do with her awkward posi tion. Her decision to call me, the
elected women's representative,
marks her principled unwilling ness to divide women and stu dents on campus, as w ell as the
growing solidarity among women
on the Evergreen campus. Barbara Spector, after considering
her position and the administration's moves , came to the deci sion to refuse appointment. She
stated and acted in support of

the need for representation from
organized women , the Third

told the Trustees and McCann
that 1) she did not approve of
computer selection and 2) she respected the work and decisions
of the women's organizations,
the Third World Coalition and
the Gay Resource Center, as well
as the Sounding Board's original

THE EVOLUTION
OF THE ESP
To the Editor:
I've been following the "ESP
Controversy" since the spring of
'75, all the time watching how
the people in charge decide to
handle the plan for assessing the
value of the Experimental Structure. It's obvious the administration feels the building is a major
problem pointing to safety,
building and fire code deficiencies as its reasons, Yet is this the
only perspective an administration can have toward such a
unique structure? I don't believe
what we're up 'against is how to
eliminate the structure by a
"community service" such as a
fire project for our school firemen or even disassembly. This is
complete non-sense.
Evolution, I believe, is what
the real issue is. Evolution of a
skeleton structure that could become a full -bodied creative environment conducive to purposes
such as environmental studies
(labs), horticulture, art studies,
writing and seminaring. The
school needs an alternative environment for such work, void
of all the concrete that pervades
this entire campus. A lot of us
truly appreciate the qualities a
textured wood environment
gives.
Myself and countless others
feel the ESP house exists as an
organic free-form monument ,
created by Evergreeners yet
never having its full opportunity
to blossom. Such buildings are
created in a special spirit and
they convey that spirit to others.
That's why so many of us feel
attached to the structure. Before
the structure has the chance to
show its potential, the administration wants it eliminated. I
don't want to see the ESP house
\
(
destroyed any more than I want
to see a cathedral smashed.
The ramifications of bringing
the building up to code, physically and financially, are not
over our heads. The financial
question is there , yes, but it sure
doesn't cost us anything to leave
it as it stands now, to find out
its price for saving. A study has
never been launched to inquire
procedures and finances needed
for 'completion, which by the
way, is happening this quarter.
I urge anyone that has had
any contact with the house in
the past to write a few words
about their times there and send
them to Mr. Kormondy, Mr.
Schillinger, and Mr. Clabaugh.
Maybe the other side- hasn't been
heard.

'ZIONIST DOVE'
To the Editor:
Here is another letter about
Zionism, in response to "Red,"
Jan . 8. I am a "Zionist dove."
Yes, there is a legitimate case for
both the Arabs and the Jews and
some Israelis and Arabs have
gotten together to at least try to
communicate. Examples: New
Outlook magazine, Between Enemies by Sana Hassan and Amos
Elon - they are in our library.
Your questions directed against
the Israelis and the current debate at the U. N. compel me to
defend my own people's position:
• The Jews were forcefully evicted from our country.
• In forced exile the "Christian"
West massacred us for various
reasons at all periods.

For 73 students in O lympia's schools, the dawn of
the" Year of the Dragon" has brought no rest from a
continuing struggle with a special problem.
The students: Vietnamese and Cambodian refugee
children. The problem: how to master an alien tongue
that has suddenly become a requisite for survival.
Until last year, the Olympia school district never
really had to worry much about a fairly specialized
aspect of language education: the English as a Second
Language (ESt) concept, or the process by which foreign speakers learn our tongue.
The April 1974 revolution in Vietnam and the subsequent inrush of refugees to this country changed all
that. To date, 250 Indochinese have found their way
to Olympia after way stops at Guam and such refugee
centers as Camp Murray near Fort Lewis .
--Last summer, says Olympia curriculum director
Dr. Richard Usitalo, a week-long crash language and
culture orientat ion at Jefferson High School drew 100
refugees, ranging from "small tykes to grandpas ." Usitalo labeled the six-hour-per-day program, which was
funded by the Neighborhood Youth Core through the
state Department of Emergency Services, "quite successful" considering a three or four day preparation
time.
Does Olympia have a proportionately large concentration of Vietnamese? Xuan Le Vu (pronounced
Swan Lee Voo), school district commissioner for the
fledgling Vietnamese ESL program, thinks so. "The
city is not so small that they are neglected and not so
big that they are lost," she explains.
Xuan Vu's job didn't exist before October 20th of
last year, when the petite 32-year-old native of
Quang Nam province set up shop on the third floor
of the Olympia school district building. Xuan was an
English teacher in a Vietnamese high school before she
obtained her master's degree in education and sociology at Michigan State University and served as instructor and counselor at the Equal Opportunity Center in Seattle.
, Xu an acts as a liaison between the parents and the
school system, functioning as interpretor since in
many cases the paren ts speak no ' English.
Xuan's operation is financed through a transitio.nal
grant from HEW through the Indochinese Migration
and Refugee Assistance Act of 1975, an emergency appropriation made by President Ford. Under that act,
$300 is granted to the local district for every schoolage refugee child with an 1-94 (immigration) number,
regardless of whether the child attends a public or private school.

Olympia recently received a $19,500 grant for the
65 Vietnamese students present at the time of application for the funds. Dr. Usitalo says a supplemental
grant for the eight additional children will be sought .
One of the most important - and the most formidable - of Xuan's diverse responsibilities is the recruitment and supervision of tutors to work every day
in the schools, teaching Vietnamese children En~lish.
How does the tutor system work? Generally, the
Vietnamese participate in regular classes during most
of the day, spending only one to three periods with
their tutor. She helps them with their other assign-
ments as well as giving them special instruction in
English.
Seven tutors, all of them women and fivp of them
present or former Evergreen students, face the daily
challenge of imparting a complex language to students
with
ages, social backgrounds, and
Gods, kings and paper dragons ushered in the
Vietnamese new year last Friday, January 29, at
Garfie ld Elementary Schoo l.
The occasion was the eve of Tet, the last day
before the Year of the Dragon. Vietnamese children
from severa l Olympia elementary schools treated
young American students from Garfield to a ce lebration that had been one month in the making more than half an hour of traditional songs, dances
and skits.
.
Girls in checkered head scarves swirled gracefully through a dance depicting the daily lives of
the buffalo shepherd children on a hillside in Vietnam. A fan dance and patriotic songs followed, all
performed in the same hearty , well-rehearsed man\ ner and without apparent stage fright.
Most productions are plagued with minor prop
failures. During a play in which the God of the
Mountain and the God of the Sea compete for the
hand of the beautiful princess, the king whose job
it was to decide between the two suitors punctuated his musings with desperate attempts to keep
his noble white beard from falling off.
The grand finale was the dramatic entrance of
two colorful stuffed paper dragons, elevated on
sticks or draped over the heads of the children who
constructed them . With that, official welcome had
been extended to the coming year .
All in all, considering the novelty of the event,
the young American audience reacted enthusiastically to their glimpse of the artistic expressions of
a foreign culture. "I don't care if you don 't like it,
one little boy told his neighbor. "We do ."
previous English proficiencies. Two of the tutors are
Vietnamese.
Teaching refugee children to speak English was not
in all cases the original aim of the tutors. Sue Butcher

"Steps of Progress," like the
rest of the sex offenders therapeutic life is designed and administered by the patients themselves .
The first task, which can take
up to two weeks, is to write a
complete autobiography, usually
about 12 pages. It is often extremely difficult to tell the truth
and this autobiography is carefully scrutinized by the therapy
group who have access to records to determine if it is the
truth .
The next step is to earn the
privilege of working under escort
up to 30 hours a week in the
kitchen, library, laundry, or as
an orderly. To do this one must
know the rules, recognize his
own responsible behavior, describe to the group one's own
ideal self which he writes down
and keeps to check with later,
and have some knowledge of
why he went into his "outlet"
(ward word for his criminal act).
Nter the patient has completed
the "Steps of Progress" he is
ready to leave. He must understand the behavior of himself
and others, learn to make and
accept confrontations, and act as
a leader for a period. He must
also train others in leadership
and read several popular psy'chology books like "The Intimate
Enemy," and "Your Perfect
Right." Finally, he must become
more like his ideal self, present a
plan for after discharge and
"show he can stay out of a deviant sexual outlet."
The man who explained this to
me I had wrongly assumed was a
therapist. Greg turned out to be
a patient of two years, longer
than the average 18 months because as he said he had been "really messed up," Greg had just
finished his leadership component in the program and now
was on a kind of work release,
going to school at Pacific Luth -
was an unpaid counseling intern at Capital High
SchooL working on an individual Evergreen contract ,
when Vietnamese students began to trickle in.
Xuan says that the Vietnamese pupils' strong points
ate handwriting, arts and crafts, reading and math
and science - two subjects in which they often sur pass their American classmates. Weaknesses, however.
show up in vital departments : speech and comprehen sion.
Sue Butcher expresses concern that her students at
Capital are not receiving adequate administrative attention. "Our school is not willing to recognize the
needs of an ESL curriculum," she says. "The kids are
thrown into normal classes and expected to get along.
There's a lot of faculty dissatisfaction - teachers
come to me and ask, 'What can we do? '"
The incentive to tutor is almost assuredly not financia I. Sue works full-lime, but is paid for only four
hours per day.
"It suddenly became important that they receive
uniqu'" help," she says. "I began to get a sense of my
importance in the continuum, so I went off my contract and started getting paid."
Capital foreign language counselor Terry Pullen
stressed the importance of keeping the Vietnamese to gether with the entire student body. As for the
question of a full-time teacher, he said that the quan tity of faculty for this year had been determined be fore the large influx of refugees , and that "the comin g
year might be differen!."
Observation of Sue's work during two periods in a
typical day recently revealed some of the myri ad rt' ·
wards and frustrations in an ESL program.
The first time block was devoted to helping four
boys, inhabitants o f this country now for one to si x
months. Thoai Tran , a veritable veteran at half a
year's residence in the United States, was writing
about a swim meet his team had just compe ted in.
Meanwhile, his classmates took down in writing the
saga of Mr. Jenkins , the hapless mailman, as dictated
by Sue from an ESL text called "New Hori zo ns in
English. "
" Mr. Jenkins hurries to the bus stop. He
sees the bus. He runs and tries to catch the
bus but he misses it. He waits for the next
bus. He is late for work. It is raining and
there is a puddle next to the bus stop. When
the bus comes, it splashes Mr. Jenkins."
Puddle? Sue repeats the word carefully - puddle.
Still no recognition- how does one explain a puddle?
Sue draws a picture on the board, labeling it clearly :
p-u -d-d-l-e. Puddle.
The boys filed out at the end of the period and
were replaced by Thanh Thi Le, an 18-year-old maid
with a gentle , musiG.I voice and little knowledge of
Engli~h. Thanh had worked for her family five
children and the parents - since the age of nine ,
moving with them to this country not long ago. This
was her second day in an American school and it was
understandably an ordeal.
High school students like these have greater difficulty than their younger counterparts in adapting to
the demands of an alien educational system , says
Xu an Le. Because they must move from one class to
another, they lack the security of a stable, "homeroom" atmosphere. Teachers don't often have the time
to give them special attention.
Xuan's job often places her in the role of mediator
in case of student-tutor or student-student disagree ments - "especially in high schooL " she says, "because there are so many frustrations."
The Vietnamese children will encounter uncountable
frustrations in their efforts to digest an entirely different way of perceiving and speaking . Cultural contrasts were accentuated at a recent Tet or New Year
festival staged at Garfield Elementary School (see ac companying story). Encouraging, however, is the fact
that steps are being taken to speed up the process of
adaptation by making available to the Vietnamese
that indispensable tool - the English language.
Sex Offender Program [Part 2 ]
eran University and working as a
headwaiter. He will probably be
one of the program's many successes .
Greg said because most people
come to the program feeling very
inferior they are taught assertive
training . Confrontation by peers
is constant. If on visiting night ,
an individual is not mingling,
others will walk up and ask
why, and remind him he must
deal with his problems.
Locked in jail, therapy is impossible for the sex offender. He
is not accepted by prisoners any'
more than the rest of society and
he returns to the street older,
more bitter and frustrated. These
people generally have very
"straight," conventional values
but never learned to deal with
society, women in particular.
In this program individuals
have a chance, with the support
and criticism of each other, to
gradually assume more responsibility until they can leave the
hospital to go to school or work
during the day until finally they
come back only for counseling.
The program is in danger of
being closed right now because
of citizen reaction and perhaps
politicians wanting to gain votes
in an election year. There is a
lack of information and under
standing about how -the program
works.
Last week it was announced
by Department of Social and
Health Services that a plan is being seriously considered to con vert Western State Hospital to a
maximum security prison by
1980. Most patients would go to
Seattle. But the sex offenders,
drug offenders, and criminal offenders would be put under maximum security. The eHect of this
would be are end to the therapeutic program.
Every program dealing with
people and trust will have risks,
but also will be more effective
than confinement in the .Jong
run. Compared to the penitentiary, the success is phenomenal.
Recidivism is lower, 8 % com pared to 25 % for sex offenders '
in the penitentiary. Escape is half
that at the penitentiary (2.9 % in
the Western State program, an- .
nually). The program is also
more economical because there
are no guards and the patients
volunteer therapy for each other.
The program is reminiscent of
China's revolutionary criminal
reform not commllnistic,
but
revolutionary. Problems
are dealt with in the context of
the real world. When they come
into the program, these people
have been socially dysfunctional,
but they are a product of society as well as a part. In this
program they leafn to be better
people . Mao Tse Tung said ,

What happens to chemical
waste, toxic and otherwise, that
is produced by student scientists
in Evergreen's la bs? Is is dumped
on a garbage pile carefully
hidden in the woods behind La b
Phase II? Perhaps plast ic bottles
filled with the fo ul stuff are
laken to the beach and floated
out into the bay .
Thankfu ll y, th e answer is
"none of the above." In fact ,
to xic c hem ical was te di sposal
methods at Evergreen have won
pra ise from state officials during
periodi c inspections .
According to faculty member
Don Humphrey, basic chem ical
waste is simply flu shed down the
drain where it becomes diluted
with water and neutralized. The
Labs are fitted w ith special
plumbing capable of handling
the chemicals and ot her substa nces such as paint. Although
the dumping of certain low-level
radioactive wastes into the sewer
system is allowed under state
regu lations, safety officials here
haven't let it happen . Yet. "The
college is committed to being as
non -polluting as possi bl e,"
Humphrey remarks.
A ll labs a re inspected o nce a
quarter, safety featur es are
checked and problems corrected.
Jake ' Romero , radiatio n safety
officer, says he keeps inventories
of where each radioactive isotope
is and where it goes, including
where it i~ disposed of. T he sta te
makes periodic inspections of the
la bs a nd Romero's logs.
State in s pectors h ave a lso
been impressed that no radioactive substances are allowed to go
down the drai n,
Actually , very few radioactive
isotopes are being used at the
present time. T he ma it! ones are
carbo n 14 and hydrogen 3 which
Romero describes as "low energy

emmiters." He says there is
no worry at the present time
a bout dange rous penetra tion s
because of the small amounts,
"There is very little waste, "
says Romero, " just test tube
residue." That waste, when it
does occur, is stored in 2 gallon
plastic jars where water is
allowed to evaporate. What's left
is taken to the University of
Washington for disposal. This 'is
only a temporary system, Romero
says, beca use so few isotopes
a nd such small amounts are
being used. If there were larger
amounts or more dangerous
substances they would have to
be taken to the disposal sit~ at
Hanford in Richland to be
Duried . In 2 years only 4 gallons
of waste have been collected.
"I feel good about it." says
Bob Barnard, head of the safety
committee, concerning toxic
waste disposal. Barnard says that
the safety committee meets the
second W ed nesday of every
month to review safety practices
and problem areas. Each major
coordinated study is represented
o n the committee and at least
o ne member is from the fire
department.
Th is is the group which does
the actual qua~ r1 y inspection of
the labs. They a lso try to
anticipate problems before they
occur, Barnard says. At the
begi nn ing of each quarter the
committee teaches a safety workshop, co vering such topics as
chemical burns, lab hazards and
first' aid.
Barnard says the safety committ ee h as been in operat ion
since Evergreen opened. There's
"lot's of support" for safety, he
says . 'The atmosphere is good. "
" Toxic waste disposal at Evergreen? For the time being, it
appears to be safe ly und e r
control.
During the first Presidential
Forum in over two years, President Charles McCann answered
audience questions and outlined
his proposals for staff reorganization at Evergreen the afternoo n
of Jan. 29.
Although moderately attended,
the group of people that assem bled in the Library Lobby were
def init ely interested and con cerned about McCann's proposals.
McCann has been discussing
th e possibility of a staff reorgan izat ion since last summer. No vember's teach-in served to emphasize the frustration students
have encountered in dealing with
prob lems relating to student access to Evergreen's academic pro gra ms.

made would create a new "dean -

It's handy to know the basics of car repair in case you're ever in a tight situation; but unless you have long empty weekends,
plenty of tools and a dry garage, the local repair shop is the most convenient place to head when your car complains.
For beginners tune-ups and lube jobs are time-consuming and require a moderate investment in tools, however there are a few
maintenance jobs anyone can learn to do that don't call for a lot of cash . Some include changing the oil and oil filter, flushing, the
radiator and replacing the air filter.
.
Once a person has invested in tools, it's usually cheaper to do all the work yourself, but if you just want to help maintain your
car the best policy is to buy or borrow a few tools and a book . One good book is "Fixing Cars: A People's Primer." It's cheap
and geared to the beginner.
The following price comparison was conducted February 2 in four local car repair shops. Prices apply to a 1965 Datsun 1200
with a manual transmission , Because parts cover such a wide range of quality, variety and price, they were not included in the
price listed .

What happens to chemical
waste, toxic and otherwise, that
is produced by student scientists
in Evergreen's la bs? Is is dumped
on a garbage pile carefully
hidden in the woods behind La b
Phase II? Perhaps plast ic bottles
filled with the fo ul stuff are
laken to the beach and floated
out into the bay .
Thankfu ll y, th e answer is
"none of the above." In fact ,
to xic c hem ical was te di sposal
methods at Evergreen have won
pra ise from state officials during
periodi c inspections .
According to faculty member
Don Humphrey, basic chem ical
waste is simply flu shed down the
drain where it becomes diluted
with water and neutralized. The
Labs are fitted w ith special
plumbing capable of handling
the chemicals and ot her substa nces such as paint. Although
the dumping of certain low-level
radioactive wastes into the sewer
system is allowed under state
regu lations, safety officials here
haven't let it happen . Yet. "The
college is committed to being as
non -polluting as possi bl e,"
Humphrey remarks.
A ll labs a re inspected o nce a
quarter, safety featur es are
checked and problems corrected.
Jake ' Romero , radiatio n safety
officer, says he keeps inventories
of where each radioactive isotope
is and where it goes, including
where it i~ disposed of. T he sta te
makes periodic inspections of the
la bs a nd Romero's logs.
State in s pectors h ave a lso
been impressed that no radioactive substances are allowed to go
down the drai n,
Actually , very few radioactive
isotopes are being used at the
present time. T he ma it! ones are
carbo n 14 and hydrogen 3 which
Romero describes as "low energy
1722 Wnl Bui ldif\ll 1722 .urrison
(ii1cross from Bob's Bis Burpn l
352 - 8848
emmiters." He says there is
no worry at the present time
a bout dange rous penetra tion s
because of the small amounts,
"There is very little waste, "
says Romero, " just test tube
residue." That waste, when it
does occur, is stored in 2 gallon
plastic jars where water is
allowed to evaporate. What's left
is taken to the University of
Washington for disposal. This 'is
only a temporary system, Romero
says, beca use so few isotopes
a nd such small amounts are
being used. If there were larger
amounts or more dangerous
substances they would have to
be taken to the disposal sit~ at
Hanford in Richland to be
Duried . In 2 years only 4 gallons
of waste have been collected.
"I feel good about it." says
Bob Barnard, head of the safety
committee, concerning toxic
waste disposal. Barnard says that
the safety committee meets the
second W ed nesday of every
month to review safety practices
and problem areas. Each major
coordinated study is represented
o n the committee and at least
o ne member is from the fire
department.
Th is is the group which does
the actual qua~ r1 y inspection of
the labs. They a lso try to
anticipate problems before they
occur, Barnard says. At the
begi nn ing of each quarter the
committee teaches a safety workshop, co vering such topics as
chemical burns, lab hazards and
first' aid.
Barnard says the safety committ ee h as been in operat ion
since Evergreen opened. There's
"lot's of support" for safety, he
says . 'The atmosphere is good. "
" Toxic waste disposal at Evergreen? For the time being, it
appears to be safe ly und e r
control.
During the first Presidential
Forum in over two years, President Charles McCann answered
audience questions and outlined
his proposals for staff reorganization at Evergreen the afternoo n
of Jan. 29.
Although moderately attended,
the group of people that assem bled in the Library Lobby were
def init ely interested and con cerned about McCann's proposals.
McCann has been discussing
th e possibility of a staff reorgan izat ion since last summer. No vember's teach-in served to emphasize the frustration students
have encountered in dealing with
prob lems relating to student access to Evergreen's academic pro gra ms.
The proposal McCa nn h as
made would create a new "dean -

It's handy to know the basics of car repair in case you're ever in a tight situation; but unless you have long empty weekends,
plenty of tools and a dry garage, the local repair shop is the most convenient place to head when your car complains.
For beginners tune-ups and lube jobs are time-consuming and require a moderate investment in tools, however there are a few
maintenance jobs anyone can learn to do that don't call for a lot of cash . Some include changing the oil and oil filter, flushing, the
radiator and replacing the air filter.
.
Once a person has invested in tools, it's usually cheaper to do all the work yourself, but if you just want to help maintain your
car the best policy is to buy or borrow a few tools and a book . One good book is "Fixing Cars: A People's Primer." It's cheap
and geared to the beginner.
The following price comparison was conducted February 2 in four local car repair shops. Prices apply to a 1965 Datsun 1200
with a manual transmission , Because parts cover such a wide range of quality, variety and price, they were not included in the
price listed .
