Larry Hanks and Malvina Reynolds on stage.

Malvina Reynolds talks with audience during intermissIon.
by Cathe rine Riddell
" Hel lo, I'm M a lvin a Reynolds .
I've been writing so ngs for about
half my life ." She turned to her
bea rded a nd bespectacled partner. "This is Larry Ha nks ."
Her voice isn ' t as w ide ranging
as it once was, but she ha s
adapted it w ith sedu ctive hum or .
She hit s her low no tes like a n
imitat ion Marlene Dietrich. Her
v0ice is clear and s he sings with
s implicity , maki n g h e r songs
easy to sing with . Larry Hanks

does some si nging too, starting
off th e secon d se t with a line of
talk very subdued compared to
his partner, but his so ngs are
fin e and his understatement is
gently good humored .
Ma lv ina Reynolds is not subt le
though. She starts her perform ance telling the young children in
the audience, " Remembe r you
children a re here a t great forbearance. Mothers , if they can' t
be quiet , take them home or o ut -

side ."
But kids were among her admirers during intermission. " I
really think you sing nice ," said
one, " How o ld are you?"
''I'm 77, how old are you?"
Just b e fore th e intermission
Ma lvin a had su ng " We Don't
Need the Men ." Afterwards a little boy ca me up to her a nd
asked , "Do you really not like
boys?" She tells him , "No, that
was just a joke."

Malvina introduc es " Little
Boxes" by saying she was asked
to sing it on network TV. She
says, "When I'm given two minutes on network TV , ]' d be
crazy to spend it singing 'Little
Boxes! ' My friends will see that
and think 'What's Malvina been
doing si nce 1961?' Criticism of
the middle class is no lo nger the
most import a nt issue."
Towards the end of her conce rt she asks, " Is there anyone I

Long Range Curriculum Proposal Out
,
I'
I

The efforts of the long - range curricu lum disappearing task force (DTF) , or ga nized by Ed Kormondy at the beginning
of winter quarter have borne fruit. The
DTF, which consisted of roughly 10 faculty, 4 staff and 7 students, has produced
a six-page proposal which contains a general ized plan for Evergreen's future curricular struct ure.
Student members of the DTF emphasized th at the proposal is ."in no form yet
to be ratified, " but merely a rough out line. The report wa s presented April 7 at
a faculty meeting .
Foll owing are a short ened version of
the proposa l and some analyses by stu dent members of the curriculum DTF . A
full draft of th e proposal is avai lable in
the St udent Information room across from
the Information Center.
The student s on the Curriculum DTF
and the COG 1JI DTF will conduct a
forum to discuss the issues and questions
raised by the proposal, and any proposals
fro';" the COG DTF, on Wednesday,
April 21 in the library Lobby, 9 a,m , noon,

to realize con tinuity while also achieving
our other goa ls."
The proposal was developed with "d issatisfaction among faculty and students"
and "our one-shot, unpredictabl e curriculum " in mind.
Four basic principles are stated in the
proposals, though a more comprehensive
goa l statement is being prepared. These
principles are: 1 ) a comm itment to good
teaching and close student-faculty relationships, 2) a commit ment to Interdisci plinary Study as a gu ide to curricular desig n , 3 ) a 'com mitm en t to innovativ e
modes of instruction for a substantial part
of the curriculum , 4) a commi tm ent to
help student s to develop leadership qua liti es, to learn how t6 learn , a nd to take
charge of their ow n educational decisions.
The proposa l identifies a scheme for the
~t ructure of curr iculum a t the co ll ege. It is
co mprised of fo ur pa rts:
Part A, Basic Coordinated Stud ies
5 or 6 programs;
400 to 500 students
Part B, Innovative, Individualized
and Rotating Options
30 to 50 faculty;
600 to 1,000 students
Part C. Advanced Curricular Pathways
1) Interdisciplinary Specializations
5 to 9 areas to be developed
25 to 60 facul ty ;
2) Divisional Specialties
15 to 20 faculty;
300 to 400 students

Leslie Owen
The Long Range Curriculum DTF has
been focus ing its efforts on three concerns: 1) teaching modes, 2) curriculum
continuity and 3) better definitions of in. stitutional goals. A progress report has
been produced from the group working
on continuity issues which presents a proposal for structures "which will enable us

Descriptions
Part A, Basic Coordinated Studies
"Each year we shou ld offer five or six
Basic Coordinated Studies designed specifically for first and second year college students but open to anyone . . . They
should involve students in reading, sem inaring, writing, investigating moral di lemmas and social values, and exploring
intellectual and personal options for the
future. First and second year students new
to Evergreen would be strongly advised to

en ter one of the programs as a way of deve loping the abov e sk ill s and of learning
the cooperative group mode of learning
that distinguishes Evergreen. "
Part B. Innovative, Individualized and
Rotating Options
" This is the least defined and most openended opbon within the curricu lum ..
Neither mode nor content are predefined ;
students and faculty determine both on a
need a nd interest basis, Programs can be
either student or facu lty initia ted and designed jointly .. . here would be staffin g
fo r in d ividualized options , se lf-pac e d
lea rni ng, internships no t covered elsewh~~e, extern a l credit , off-campus studies ,
etc.
Part C. Advanced Curricular Pathways
" Adva nced Curricu lar Pathway~ should
be of two k inds: 1) a ca refu lly selected
group of Interdisciplina ry specia lizations
invo lving a two or three year sequence o f
offerin gs ; 2) an opportunity for specia lizat ion wi thin a division such as Fou ndati o n of Natural Science. These should be
carefully designed in advance a nd considered as ove rlapping or intersec ting pa th ways."
Part C-l. Interdisciplinary Specializations
"We suggest establishment of between
plinary study which are carefully planned
o ut in advance, advertised as special offerings of Eve rgreen . . . These a re considered as two or three year planned sequences of Coordinated Studies, Group
Co ntr acts, Internships, Courses, Selfpaced Lea rning . . . or whatever mode
will best do the teaching / learning job for
that particular specialty .
"Pro posed specialties include Environ menta l Studies, Marine Studies, Life and
Health for the Individual and Community,
Human Development and its Social Con text , Expressive Arts, Cultural and Area
Studies, European and American Studies,
Political Economy, Management in the
Public Interest, Humane Technology,
Good Earth Agriculture, Outdoor Educa tion, and Intelligence and Knowinll:. The

ty pes of disc iplines included in each spe·
cia lty are furt her described in the pro posal. However, no plans have been de veloped for th e specifics of these spec ia lties. "
Part C-2. Divisional Specializations
"Th is option will provide facult y for
advising and teaching those wh o wish to
specialize in some of the traditional divisions . In general these shou ld no t be conceived as depa rtmental but divisiona l :
Humanities, not just Literature .
Addi tion a I offerings would be p rOVided as required throu gh quarter-long group co n·
trac ts, individual co ntracts , internships,
self-paced lea rning, perhaps an occas ional
Coo rdina ted Study in high-demand area s.
The entire proposal co ncludes wi th a
se t ot organizational questi ons which are
critical to the outcome of the new structure.
Of specific importance to students is th e
mean ing of "natural groupin gs" for design
and implementa tion of a part icula r s pe cial izat ion and the A ll -Campus Review
Board as a means of eva luating the spe cialt y areas, How wi ll it function? How
wi ll students be selected for th e b oa rd?
This proposal raises many issues conce rning the na ture of education at Evergreen. As a tentative proposal it mu st be
reviewed and criticized by th e entire communit y, especia lly in light of the prob lem,
it attempts to remedy and the im plications
it ho lds for the ki nd of ed uca t ion received
a t this school.
The proposal is now a preliminary draft ,
We encourage discussion, sugges tio ns, al ·
terna tives either in writing or in oral testi mony to the DTF.

was surprised the first time I fo und
graffiti at Evergreen, T here isn't very
much of it and it appears in so few places
a ro und campus that it's more the except ion than the rule. As an ar t form. it
doesn't appear to be very popular here
yet.
Much has been writte n a b ou t graffiti in
recent years, Many length y studi es and reports have been fil ed , analyzing its social
significance from various angles . Everyone
from college Ph.D' s to Norman Mailer

society,
There is one thing tha t even an untra ined observer can quickly deduce a fter
checking out some fresh graff iti : people
write things on wa lls that they would
never say out loud , Whether it be a bath roo m st all or unprotec ted stairway, peop le
bare their innerm ost thoughts wherever
wa ll a nd pen meet.
Now here is this more true tha n at Evergreen w h e r e a layer of liberalism
sometimes hides more co nserva tive feelings.
Despite the efforts of feminists around
th e country, many Evergreen m e n still
ho ld a n ega tiv e opinion of campus
women. "Evergreef] where men are
men and so are the women," sa id o ne
writer. Another wrote, " I don 't know
abo ut yo u guys but these women are
ge ttin g me down ."

I wou ld li ke t o try to elaborate on a
few of the more important co n sequences I
see that co uld ste m fro m impl emen tat io n
o f the lon g- ran ge cur r icu lum p lan , I
w o ul d li ke to s tress the cou ld so as not to
assume the ro le of prophet, and because
som e o f t he tend encies coming out of the
plan ca n be dea lt wi th by in corporat ing a
solution into a revised wo rking pla n ,
No require ments was one of the orig inal m a ndates o f Evergreen . Its intent wa s
to e nco urage (fo rce?) students into plan ning their own cou rse of stu dy , The re
w o uld be no easy out of kicking b ack
and being carried along by the current of
required stud ies,
In the proposal t he "advanced specia lty
are as" move us a way from this p o licy and
intent. S in ce these a rea s wou ld have a
two to three yea r cycle, second a nd third
year programs in the cycle wou ld have
ce rta in prerequisites before the student
c o uld ent e r them. These prerequ isites
co uld be similar to requirements between
levels of study at a more traditional col lege . They ass ure simila r backgrounds for
students in the program but they cou ld
detract from students p lanning their own
educat ion and p lace some of the planning
in the hands of the institution,
It would be far easi/!r to com e to Ever -

This may appea r as a n exercise in se m a nt ics b ut it is a va lid cons ideratio n, It
would mean that if a s tudent wanted a
deg ree of interdi s c ip linarine ss (sound s
fatal!) in the specialty. that would' com bi ne some of the prospective a reas such as
Po lit ical Eco n o my , Env iro nmental Studies
a nd Manage ment in the Pub lic In terest ,
t hey wo ul d have to p ick and choose programs from among t he three areas.
Alth o ugh this wou ld be possible, the
student mu st be able to ful fill all the prerequ isites for eac h of the a reas they transfer in to , whic h cou ld be qu ite a feat if the
specialty areas are trul y advanced. It fulfilling these prerequisi tes proved impossible and the student is coming from Po liti cal Econo my int o Env iro nm ental St ud ies
they will have to re m ai n w ith the social
science s ide of Environmenta l St udies (if it
is offered) or come in at the beginn ing
leve l of the spec ia lt y area . So the result
wo ul d be staying at the beg inn ing level or
being content to "specialize" wit hin a d ivision ,
An o ther consequence w o uld be that
even if the ~tudent ma naged the swi tc hes
from on e area t o th e oth e r a t th e
ad vanced leve l, it w o uld still leav e t he in ter re la ting of the learning up to the in d ividual , which is compa rab le to an inter d isc ip linary ed ucation one could rece ive
at the U ni versity of Washington by taking
a broad spectrum of courses , So there is
the possibi li ty of specialty areas becoming
Ev ergreen-brand departments encompass ing progra ms tha t could become Evergree n -brand courses if the planning of
them is not approac hed cautiously,
The above are a few of the concerns
whic h must be dea lt wit h in public discussion before the acceptance of any pro I.

green and take a one-year basic coordi nated studies program, and then lock into
a three year advanced specialty with no
responsibility for thinking how one
should plan one 's education if given the
chance. Studen'ts would be told what to
do to a certain extent, Perhaps this is
what students want ,
At the faculty meeting where the pro posal was introduced, a quest ion was
raised if many of the specialty areas were
not intradisciplinary rather than interdisciplinary, in that marty of the foci would
incorporate on ly diSciplines from within

The student discontent with the present
curriculum is due in part to the fact that

the college has never effec ti vely in stituted
a guida nce prog ram for ass istin g new Ev e rgreeners to ide nt ify their roles as students in thi s u niqu e a cadem ic env iro n me nt.
If Eve rg reen is to co ntinue to supp o r"
the qu a liti es of self-moti vation , self-di sci ·
plin e, a nd se lf-dete rmination, then it m us t
rea lizE' that these q ua li t ies a re not necessa ril y developed by t he indiv idu a l in
other ed uca tional institutions or working
s itua t io ns. Therefore, Ev e rgreen must reco g nize th a t the people who come here
need a dvice abo ut developi ng the a forementioned qualities,
This is w here I think the co ll ege has
fa iled its stud ents , as we ll as itself. a nd
this is why the DTF has bee n ca lled upo n
to present a proposa l fo r a more stru ctured cur r icu lum .
Our pro posed c urri culum will take advanta ge of Eve rgreen's pas t and prese nt
successes , enabling the co llege to advertise
its stre ng th in the se stud y areas, w hich is
w h y I s uppo rt the ideas behind its form ati o n. However, my ' concern rema in s w it h
the fact tha t thi s proposed restru cturing of
the curriculum, conside ring tha t it neces sit a tes a g reat er amount of lo ng range
p lanning than in the pa st, co uld ca use a
de -e mp has is of the recogni zed qu a lity of
self - direction .
T hi s de- emp has is co uld ha ppen beca use
the student's role in curr icu lar planning
has not yet been defined in the outline of
o ur curriculum proposal. However, I d o
not doubt that an identification of the stu -de nt's role will be written into the final
plan.
I propose that the final pla n be pub lished in the form of an agreed upon con tra ct between all faculty, all students, and
the adm inistration . This would provide a
method for the eva luation and check of
each party's involvement in the process,
The new curriculum wha tever its shape
will be a good one, if it is planned by
both faculty and students, T he faculty al ready have a sense for what they want to
teach , so that the burden of the student's
involvement in their planning roles is
magnified _ The faculty and the administration must recognize this burden and remain concerned with the development of
their students as self-directed learners,
They must continue to affirm their commitment to the educational philosophy
that Evergreen sponsors, and prov e it by
urg ing their students to involve themselves
in the desig n of the ir academic careers_

Everg ree n ha s been chang ing since the

The presen ta ti o n of the p ro p osed lo ng

bearing on Ever green's future. I will a t·
temp t to se t in foc us the impac t the p lan
is like ly to have o n student in vo lvem e nt
in curriculu m pla n ning.
First, it is necessa ry to define the levels
a t w hich pla nning occurs a t Evergree n . i
th ink t her e arc three levels at whi ch de c isions a ffec ting the curriculu m a re made:
individua l, prog ra m and insti tuti ona l. Fo r
individual student s, a d istinguishi ng fea tu re of Eve rgreen is tha t the re a re no re quirement s a s to what an individua l st udent must do while a t Evergree n. Idea ll y,
it is up to e ac h indiv idual to ch oose hi s o r
her own way through the coll ege .
T he second level, program pl a nn ing,
needs to be d ivided fu r ther int o tw o
phases because of qua lita tive Jifferences
in the kind of planning which takes p lace
a t this level. The first is pro gram init ia tio n, when faculty o r facult y and stude nt s
o r student s a lone sit down a nd dream u p
a ca tch y program title and a theme ,
The next phase of planning at the pro gram level is planning in ongoing p rog rams . For example, you're in a progra m
and yo u want to have a say in the boo ks
c hosen for the next quarter. In this situa tion the roles of studen ts need to be
spelled out at the beginning of a program
to avoid the anguish that results from
,false expectations and misunderstandings,
The third level , institutional planning,
is by and large the province .of administrators, Institutional planning involves
budgeting , space allocation, hiring and

graffiti at Evergreen, T here isn't very
much of it and it appears in so few places

doesn't appear to be very popular here
yet.
Much has been writte n a b ou t graffiti in
recent years, Many length y studi es and reports have been fil ed , analyzing its social

society,
There is one thing tha t even an untra ined observer can quickly deduce a fter
checking out some fresh graff iti : people
write things on wa lls that they would
never say out loud , Whether it be a bath roo m st all or unprotec ted stairway, peop le
bare their innerm ost thoughts wherever
wa ll a nd pen meet.
Now here is this more true tha n at Evergreen w h e r e a layer of liberalism
sometimes hides more co nserva tive feelings.
Despite the efforts of feminists around
th e country, many Evergreen m e n still
ho ld a n ega tiv e opinion of campus
women. "Evergreef] where men are
men and so are the women," sa id o ne
writer. Another wrote, " I don 't know
abo ut yo u guys but these women are

No require ments was one of the orig inal m a ndates o f Evergreen . Its intent wa s
to e nco urage (fo rce?) students into plan ning their own cou rse of stu dy , The re
w o uld be no easy out of kicking b ack
and being carried along by the current of
required stud ies,
In the proposal t he "advanced specia lty

intent. S in ce these a rea s wou ld have a
two to three yea r cycle, second a nd third
year programs in the cycle wou ld have
ce rta in prerequisites before the student

co uld be similar to requirements between
levels of study at a more traditional col lege . They ass ure simila r backgrounds for
students in the program but they cou ld
detract from students p lanning their own
educat ion and p lace some of the planning
in the hands of the institution,
It would be far easi/!r to com e to Ever -

This may appea r as a n exercise in se m a nt ics b ut it is a va lid cons ideratio n, It
would mean that if a s tudent wanted a

Alth o ugh this wou ld be possible, the
student mu st be able to ful fill all the prerequ isites for eac h of the a reas they transfer in to , whic h cou ld be qu ite a feat if the

An o ther consequence w o uld be that

a broad spectrum of courses , So there is
the possibi li ty of specialty areas becoming

The above are a few of the concerns

a three year advanced specialty with no

what students want ,
At the faculty meeting where the pro posal was introduced, a quest ion was

The student discontent with the present
curriculum is due in part to the fact that

the college has never effec ti vely in stituted
a guida nce prog ram for ass istin g new Ev e rgreeners to ide nt ify their roles as students in thi s u niqu e a cadem ic env iro n me nt.
If Eve rg reen is to co ntinue to supp o r"
the qu a liti es of self-moti vation , self-di sci ·
plin e, a nd se lf-dete rmination, then it m us t
rea lizE' that these q ua li t ies a re not necessa ril y developed by t he indiv idu a l in
other ed uca tional institutions or working
s itua t io ns. Therefore, Ev e rgreen must reco g nize th a t the people who come here
need a dvice abo ut developi ng the a forementioned qualities,
This is w here I think the co ll ege has
fa iled its stud ents , as we ll as itself. a nd
this is why the DTF has bee n ca lled upo n
to present a proposa l fo r a more stru ctured cur r icu lum .
Our pro posed c urri culum will take advanta ge of Eve rgreen's pas t and prese nt
successes , enabling the co llege to advertise
its stre ng th in the se stud y areas, w hich is
w h y I s uppo rt the ideas behind its form ati o n. However, my ' concern rema in s w it h
the fact tha t thi s proposed restru cturing of
the curriculum, conside ring tha t it neces sit a tes a g reat er amount of lo ng range
p lanning than in the pa st, co uld ca use a
de -e mp has is of the recogni zed qu a lity of
self - direction .
T hi s de- emp has is co uld ha ppen beca use
the student's role in curr icu lar planning
has not yet been defined in the outline of
o ur curriculum proposal. However, I d o
not doubt that an identification of the stu -de nt's role will be written into the final
plan.
I propose that the final pla n be pub lished in the form of an agreed upon con tra ct between all faculty, all students, and
the adm inistration . This would provide a
method for the eva luation and check of
each party's involvement in the process,
The new curriculum wha tever its shape
will be a good one, if it is planned by
both faculty and students, T he faculty al ready have a sense for what they want to
teach , so that the burden of the student's
involvement in their planning roles is
magnified _ The faculty and the administration must recognize this burden and remain concerned with the development of
their students as self-directed learners,
They must continue to affirm their commitment to the educational philosophy
that Evergreen sponsors, and prov e it by
urg ing their students to involve themselves
in the desig n of the ir academic careers_

First, it is necessa ry to define the levels
a t w hich pla nning occurs a t Evergree n . i

individual student s, a d istinguishi ng fea tu re of Eve rgreen is tha t the re a re no re quirement s a s to what an individua l st udent must do while a t Evergree n. Idea ll y,
it is up to e ac h indiv idual to ch oose hi s o r
her own way through the coll ege .
T he second level, program pl a nn ing,
needs to be d ivided fu r ther int o tw o

in the kind of planning which takes p lace
a t this level. The first is pro gram init ia tio n, when faculty o r facult y and stude nt s

The next phase of planning at the pro gram level is planning in ongoing p rog rams . For example, you're in a progra m

Th e DTF has been bringing
fac u lt y candidates to campus for
the purpose of interviews as well
as to have them meet Evergreen
st udent s, faculty and staff. Candidates ha ve been enco uraged to
demonstrate their abilities to stu dents, as some dance and art his tory candida tes d id recently .
Students may interview potential faculty and make written
reccommendations on whether or
not they should be hired. A
schedule of interview times and
places for candidates is posted
outside Martin's office, L2208 ,
and in s tudent services. Recommendations may be turned into
Mart in 's office and will go into
the candidate's file.
The DTF es tablished a list of
hiring priorities to serve as a
guideline. Facu lt y with experience
In the following areas have the
hi ghest hiring priority: economics, business economics, dance,
aud io production, design-craft ,
mathematics, geology, art history, cu ltural hi story and nutrition.
In a March 17 memorandum,
Martin said that " We want the
best peop le available to help us
upgrade the quality of our faculty." The group is looking for
people with "one very strong
area of expertise" who are wi ll ing to teach in that area or out
of it if necessary. "They shou ld
no t be peop le who are so into
other thing s that they never
want to think about their areas

traditi o nall y have h ad minimal impact.
The main impact of the long range curricu lum plan is on the program planning
level. The role of students in program initiation is most affected by the plan, In a
co llege w h ere the entire curriculum is rep lanned every year, there is plenty of opportunity for students to initiate their
own program s.
T he plan reduces this flexibility by in troducing special t y areas where two and
three year sequences are planned in advance. There is no question that reduced
flexib ility is a cost of this plan, The ques-

the instit ut ion become less important than
the ins titution, It s primary fu nc ti on is its
survival. "
Said Aldr id ge, "Traditiona li sm is a
disease . When the fear of not having
enough students ove rcomes u s, we turn
back to what we've done before. "
Vice-Pres ident & Provost Ed Kormondy .
approached the problem still a different
way, He cited "a very desperate need to
do a be tt er job with incoming stuuents" as
con tribu ting to the need for more a nd
better clarification of curriculum presented
throug h the Catalog Supp lement.
According to Kormondy, "The need for
a set of in stitut iona l guidelines was a
consensus of the Long-Ra nge C urriculum
P lanning DTF in order to provide a
structural framework for students to base
choices upon. " Better organization and
d!'finition ot theme , subject area, and
prerequi s ites are necessary to establish
thi s framework , he said, He denied

The editor of the 76-77 supp lement .
faculty me mber Will Humphreys, a lso
noted the trend toward career orientation
here but ma intained that changes have
been less traumatic at Evergreen than on
the national level.
The new supplement , he said. is an
attempt to offer students a little more
stabi lity and predictability than in the
pas t, "We've been try ing to maintain an
illu s ion of making a whole new
curric ulum up from scratch every year.
There was just too much uncertainty from
o ne year to the n ext as to w hat was going
to be offered,"
Humphreys contended th at there has
been a tende n cy toward simplification and
clarifica tion of curriculum in order to give
new students a better feel for choosing
program. But Humphreys also stressed
that from hi s po in t of view . Evergreen's
basic ed u cationa l p hilo sophy r e main s

He noted a gradual increase over the
past severa l years in the number of
o fferings directed to a specific clientele,
but he cla imed t h at the po tential for such
o ffe rin gs has been prese nt all along , He
referred to a new program emp h asizing
business administration , (Managemellt &
f lIP PlIblic Int erest) which he contended
w as necessary to accommodate the greater
stude nt interest in business- related disci plines, A ncl finally , he said these changes
were it response to pressure from st udent s
and faculty, from the state of Washi ngton.
and from the community of O lymp ia to
o ffer a more broadl y-applicable curricu lum than at present.

MODERN TIMES, written, directed, produced, and scored by
Cha rlie Chap lin , is being pr~­
sen ted Friday , April 16, in Lectllre> Hall On(' at 3, 7, and 9: 30
p.lII . Admission is 50 cents.
I saw Charlie Chaplin's MODERN TIMES for the first time a
few years ago a t Portland ' s
Round-up Theatre , The Roundup runs m ovies around the clock,
charging 7S cents admission. a nd
the theatre serves as a sh elter for
w inos and assorted vag rants on
cold , rainy nights.
My friend a nd I showed up after midnight . just missing MODERN TIMES. Three other films
were on the bill: a forgettab le
porno movie, a rotten spy picture starri ng Mia Farrow. a nd A
Ma>l for A ll Seasons. The o nly
movement in the audie nce during
these films came from a man in
the front row who flicked cigarette butts at the screen every
few minutes, and another man
w ho periodically chose to ignore
the "NO SPITTING" signs placed
prominent ly throughout the theatre,
Then MODERN TIMES began,
and the theatre came to life A
few bums remained passed out .
but the majority howled at every
joke. MODERN TIMES was their
movie. Charlie Chaplin was Super Tramp, and they were proud,
At the end they applauded and
promptly fell asleep,

IfW!
Qd

MODERN TIMES is one of
Chaplin 's best films, It opens
with a hilarious sa ti re on the regimentation in modern mass production , and ends up as a nos talgic repetition of C haplin 's
grea test gags, Rou tines involving
cops, roller skates, waiters' trays,
and chases are plentiful. and all
are c horeograph ed to perfection,
It ha d been five years s ince
Chaplin's previous film, City
Lights, had been released . and silent movies were considered
dead, Chaplin took a chance
with MODERN TIMES, Th e
o nly dialogue in the movie
comes fr o m television screens
a nd loudspeakers - the res t is
musical accompaniment (composed by C h aplin ) and a few
sound effects. Except for a so ng
at the end of the movie (which is
a combination of gibberish a nd
foreign language), C hap lin never
speaks.
When MODERN TIMES opened in 1936 it 'created a con troversy. Its original title. The
Masses, had been publicized in
advance . and it was assumed
that Chaplin's unpopular left wing sympath ies would fill the
movie, It was banned in Germany and Italy for being Communistic , while aud iences in
Russia were not at a ll amused by
the factory scenes, Communist
journals like The New Masses in
the U,S, grumb led that the fi lm
did not further revolution . but at

least o ne reviewer was relieved
that the fi lm "gives no comfort
to the enemy ," The m ovie's social s tance ac tuall y c hampions
ind ividualism over the mechanized life, rather than promoting
governme ntal con tr o l and the
abolition of capitalism,
C hap lin was sued for plagiarism in 1937 by the French fi lm
company th at made A Nous la
Llberte. It was c laimed that
Chapl i n sto le ideas from the
1931 fi lm (in particular, the conveyor-belt seque nce). and it is
tr ue that certain scenes are suspiciously simil ar. But the director, Rene C lair . when informed
of the su it, stated that he was
fla tt e red t o h ave influenced
C h aplin . having borrowed a lot
himself from Chaplin's earlier
films, The matter was dropped.

MODERN TIMES is a mustsee . The slapst ick is ene rgetic,
precise l y co nt ro ll ed, and brilliantly executed. The seq uence of
Cha rlie being held victim by an
automatic feeding machine is the
funnies t [ have ever seen, The
machine goes berserk. and spoo ns
jab him in
his mouth, he is fed
steel nuts, soup pours down his
shirt, and of course pies are
flung in his face. In MODERN
TIMES Chaplin - as director ,
wri ter, producer. composer, and
performer - proves once again
he is one of the true geniuses of
th e c inema .

traditi o nall y have h ad minimal impact.
The main impact of the long range curricu lum plan is on the program planning
level. The role of students in program initiation is most affected by the plan, In a
co llege w h ere the entire curriculum is rep lanned every year, there is plenty of opportunity for students to initiate their
own program s.
T he plan reduces this flexibility by in troducing special t y areas where two and
three year sequences are planned in advance. There is no question that reduced
flexib ility is a cost of this plan, The ques-

the instit ut ion become less important than
the ins titution, It s primary fu nc ti on is its
survival. "
Said Aldr id ge, "Traditiona li sm is a
disease . When the fear of not having
enough students ove rcomes u s, we turn
back to what we've done before. "
Vice-Pres ident & Provost Ed Kormondy .
approached the problem still a different
way, He cited "a very desperate need to
do a be tt er job with incoming stuuents" as
con tribu ting to the need for more a nd
better clarification of curriculum presented
throug h the Catalog Supp lement.
According to Kormondy, "The need for
a set of in stitut iona l guidelines was a
consensus of the Long-Ra nge C urriculum
P lanning DTF in order to provide a
structural framework for students to base
choices upon. " Better organization and
d!'finition ot theme , subject area, and
prerequi s ites are necessary to establish
thi s framework , he said, He denied

The editor of the 76-77 supp lement .
faculty me mber Will Humphreys, a lso
noted the trend toward career orientation
here but ma intained that changes have
been less traumatic at Evergreen than on
the national level.
The new supplement , he said. is an
attempt to offer students a little more
stabi lity and predictability than in the
pas t, "We've been try ing to maintain an
illu s ion of making a whole new
curric ulum up from scratch every year.
There was just too much uncertainty from
o ne year to the n ext as to w hat was going
to be offered,"
Humphreys contended th at there has
been a tende n cy toward simplification and
clarifica tion of curriculum in order to give
new students a better feel for choosing
program. But Humphreys also stressed
that from hi s po in t of view . Evergreen's
basic ed u cationa l p hilo sophy r e main s

He noted a gradual increase over the
past severa l years in the number of
o fferings directed to a specific clientele,
but he cla imed t h at the po tential for such
o ffe rin gs has been prese nt all along , He
referred to a new program emp h asizing
business administration , (Managemellt &
f lIP PlIblic Int erest) which he contended
w as necessary to accommodate the greater
stude nt interest in business- related disci plines, A ncl finally , he said these changes
were it response to pressure from st udent s
and faculty, from the state of Washi ngton.
and from the community of O lymp ia to
o ffer a more broadl y-applicable curricu lum than at present.

Larry Hanks and Malvina Reynolds on stage.

Malvina Reynolds talks with audience during intermissIon.
by Cathe rine Riddell
" Hel lo, I'm M a lvin a Reynolds .
I've been writing so ngs for about
half my life ." She turned to her
bea rded a nd bespectacled partner. "This is Larry Ha nks ."
Her voice isn ' t as w ide ranging
as it once was, but she ha s
adapted it w ith sedu ctive hum or .
She hit s her low no tes like a n

v0ice is clear and s he sings with

does some si nging too, starting
off th e secon d se t with a line of
talk very subdued compared to
his partner, but his so ngs are
fin e and his understatement is
gently good humored .
Ma lv ina Reynolds is not subt le
though. She starts her perform ance telling the young children in
the audience, " Remembe r you
children a re here a t great forbearance. Mothers , if they can' t
be quiet , take them home or o ut -

side ."
But kids were among her admirers during intermission. " I
really think you sing nice ," said
one, " How o ld are you?"
''I'm 77, how old are you?"
Just b e fore th e intermission
Ma lvin a had su ng " We Don't
Need the Men ." Afterwards a little boy ca me up to her a nd
asked , "Do you really not like
boys?" She tells him , "No, that
was just a joke."

Malvina introduc es " Little
Boxes" by saying she was asked
to sing it on network TV. She
says, "When I'm given two minutes on network TV , ]' d be
crazy to spend it singing 'Little
Boxes! ' My friends will see that
and think 'What's Malvina been
doing si nce 1961?' Criticism of
the middle class is no lo nger the
most import a nt issue."
Towards the end of her conce rt she asks, " Is there anyone I

Long Range Curriculum Proposal Out
,
I'
I

The efforts of the long - range curricu lum disappearing task force (DTF) , or ga nized by Ed Kormondy at the beginning
of winter quarter have borne fruit. The
DTF, which consisted of roughly 10 faculty, 4 staff and 7 students, has produced
a six-page proposal which contains a general ized plan for Evergreen's future curricular struct ure.
Student members of the DTF emphasized th at the proposal is ."in no form yet
to be ratified, " but merely a rough out line. The report wa s presented April 7 at
a faculty meeting .
Foll owing are a short ened version of
the proposa l and some analyses by stu dent members of the curriculum DTF . A
full draft of th e proposal is avai lable in
the St udent Information room across from
the Information Center.
The student s on the Curriculum DTF
and the COG 1JI DTF will conduct a
forum to discuss the issues and questions
raised by the proposal, and any proposals
fro';" the COG DTF, on Wednesday,
April 21 in the library Lobby, 9 a,m , noon,

to realize con tinuity while also achieving
our other goa ls."
The proposal was developed with "d issatisfaction among faculty and students"
and "our one-shot, unpredictabl e curriculum " in mind.
Four basic principles are stated in the
proposals, though a more comprehensive
goa l statement is being prepared. These
principles are: 1 ) a comm itment to good
teaching and close student-faculty relationships, 2) a commit ment to Interdisci plinary Study as a gu ide to curricular desig n , 3 ) a 'com mitm en t to innovativ e
modes of instruction for a substantial part
of the curriculum , 4) a commi tm ent to
help student s to develop leadership qua liti es, to learn how t6 learn , a nd to take
charge of their ow n educational decisions.
The proposa l identifies a scheme for the
~t ructure of curr iculum a t the co ll ege. It is
co mprised of fo ur pa rts:
Part A, Basic Coordinated Stud ies
5 or 6 programs;
400 to 500 students
Part B, Innovative, Individualized
and Rotating Options
30 to 50 faculty;
600 to 1,000 students
Part C. Advanced Curricular Pathways
1) Interdisciplinary Specializations
5 to 9 areas to be developed
25 to 60 facul ty ;
2) Divisional Specialties
15 to 20 faculty;
300 to 400 students

The Long Range Curriculum DTF has
been focus ing its efforts on three concerns: 1) teaching modes, 2) curriculum
continuity and 3) better definitions of in. stitutional goals. A progress report has
been produced from the group working
on continuity issues which presents a proposal for structures "which will enable us

Descriptions
Part A, Basic Coordinated Studies
"Each year we shou ld offer five or six
Basic Coordinated Studies designed specifically for first and second year college students but open to anyone . . . They
should involve students in reading, sem inaring, writing, investigating moral di lemmas and social values, and exploring
intellectual and personal options for the
future. First and second year students new
to Evergreen would be strongly advised to

en ter one of the programs as a way of deve loping the abov e sk ill s and of learning
the cooperative group mode of learning
that distinguishes Evergreen. "
Part B. Innovative, Individualized and
Rotating Options
" This is the least defined and most openended opbon within the curricu lum ..
Neither mode nor content are predefined ;
students and faculty determine both on a
need a nd interest basis, Programs can be
either student or facu lty initia ted and designed jointly .. . here would be staffin g
fo r in d ividualized options , se lf-pac e d
lea rni ng, internships no t covered elsewh~~e, extern a l credit , off-campus studies ,
etc.
Part C. Advanced Curricular Pathways
" Adva nced Curricu lar Pathway~ should
be of two k inds: 1) a ca refu lly selected
group of Interdisciplina ry specia lizations
invo lving a two or three year sequence o f
offerin gs ; 2) an opportunity for specia lizat ion wi thin a division such as Fou ndati o n of Natural Science. These should be
carefully designed in advance a nd considered as ove rlapping or intersec ting pa th ways."
Part C-l. Interdisciplinary Specializations
"We suggest establishment of between
plinary study which are carefully planned
o ut in advance, advertised as special offerings of Eve rgreen . . . These a re considered as two or three year planned sequences of Coordinated Studies, Group
Co ntr acts, Internships, Courses, Selfpaced Lea rning . . . or whatever mode
will best do the teaching / learning job for
that particular specialty .
"Pro posed specialties include Environ menta l Studies, Marine Studies, Life and
Health for the Individual and Community,
Human Development and its Social Con text , Expressive Arts, Cultural and Area
Studies, European and American Studies,
Political Economy, Management in the
Public Interest, Humane Technology,
Good Earth Agriculture, Outdoor Educa tion, and Intelligence and Knowinll:. The

ty pes of disc iplines included in each spe·
cia lty are furt her described in the pro posal. However, no plans have been de veloped for th e specifics of these spec ia lties. "
Part C-2. Divisional Specializations
"Th is option will provide facult y for
advising and teaching those wh o wish to
specialize in some of the traditional divisions . In general these shou ld no t be conceived as depa rtmental but divisiona l :
Humanities, not just Literature .
Addi tion a I offerings would be p rOVided as required throu gh quarter-long group co n·
trac ts, individual co ntracts , internships,
self-paced lea rning, perhaps an occas ional
Coo rdina ted Study in high-demand area s.
The entire proposal co ncludes wi th a
se t ot organizational questi ons which are
critical to the outcome of the new structure.
Of specific importance to students is th e
mean ing of "natural groupin gs" for design
and implementa tion of a part icula r s pe cial izat ion and the A ll -Campus Review
Board as a means of eva luating the spe cialt y areas, How wi ll it function? How
wi ll students be selected for th e b oa rd?
This proposal raises many issues conce rning the na ture of education at Evergreen. As a tentative proposal it mu st be
reviewed and criticized by th e entire communit y, especia lly in light of the prob lem,
it attempts to remedy and the im plications
it ho lds for the ki nd of ed uca t ion received
a t this school.
The proposal is now a preliminary draft ,
We encourage discussion, sugges tio ns, al ·
terna tives either in writing or in oral testi mony to the DTF.
