This is the College Activities Building on the campus of The Evergreen State College. We are a full service bank with
a branch located in this building. Our main branch is in South Sound Center in lacey, about 20 'minutes from Evergreen. We also have branches in West Olympia (ten minutes from school) and Tanglewilde (out past Lacey). You can
save yourself time and trouble by banking right on campus, and to make things even easier, you can do all your banking by mail with us. We are located next to the Deli and across from the Bookstore and Information Center. All our
accounts are FDIC insured.

Thanks to a combination of
hard work and dedication by
faculty, Enrollment Services, and
some new recruiting and retention plans, the cloudy enrollment
picture for Evergreen may be
seei ng some light.
The enrollment process for this
fall got off to a shaky start last
spring, when enrollment projections were disturbingly under expectations. Evergreen needed
a bo.ut 1 , 500 new students in
order to reach it s projected en rollment of 2,383 students and
by early June were about 300 students behind -in the expected registration projection. During the
rest of the summer, Evergreen's
staff pu lled toge th er to bring the

latest head count to 2,641 students, which will bring Evergreen
close to last year's enrollment
figures (all specific figures and
breakdowns were not ava ilable
at th is time, but should be compiled within the next few weeks .)
Because the institution's budget
is based on how many students
are enrolled, drastic under-enrollment could cause some serio us budget pr o bl ems (mainl y
monies for salaries and operation
of facilities). As it sta nds now ,
Evergreen should be in better
sha pe th an some had feared.
"We might not come in where
we would like to be . but we're
far ahead of where we thought
we'd be," said Larry Stenberg,
Dean of Enrollment Services.

When the enrollment picture
started to look dim, Dean of Enrollment Services Larry Stenberg
and his staff developed a program to help boost recruitment
of new students and retention of
old ones .
Basically, the plans centered
on gett in g everyonewat Evergreen
involved in the enrollment prob lem. The Academic Deans worked
on broadening the curricul um to
ensure students a place at Evergreen and suit their educational
needs . New s tudents contemplating enrolling at Evergreen were
contacted throughout the su mm er
(by phone, as well as by mail)
and were kept up to date on programs being offered as well as
se rvices availab le to the student.
Facult y were ava il ab le during
most of the summer to help with
academic adviSing a nd answer
questions about their programs .
One of th e biggest factors in
boos ting enrollment came in the
expansion of part - time st udies
options. Twenty-three programs
were designed to handl e part ·
time students, a nd modules were
more than doubled (from 20 to
SOL This gave night students a nd
people in the community more
options for continuing educat ion,
part-time and degree completions
possibi lities as well as broaden -

ing the curriculum. As a result ,
many pr ogra ms and module s
closed up fast.
As of today, the bulk of Ev ergree n's st udents (70 - 80 % ) are
enro ll ed in Coordinilted Stud ies
program s
or group contract s,
but the biggest gain was in the
part - time and modu le stud ies
where they at tracted approximately 550 students.
One of the main facto rs th at
made the enrollment picture for
this fall so unpredictable wa s the
continu ous registration process
used this summer. Instead of
hav ing a couple of cutoff dates
in which new and re turning studen ts had to register by , regi stra ti on was open a ll su mmer
lo ng, to everyone. This caused
procrastination and last minu te
enrollments by students , as we ll
as so m e programs filling up
faster than expected. Many felt
that the continuous registrat ion
process unintenti o na ll y g ives
some st udents a n advan tage ove r
student s o ut side the co mmunity
area (such as out-of-state stu dents) because a faculty signature
is required to registe r in a progra m.
Even though abo ut 1,600 new
students have enro lled this faIL
the enrollment staff will co nt in ue
to co nce ntra te o n att racti ng as

many new st udents as poss ible.
This helps to build up freshman
classes which will u lti mate ly
build up the to tal enrollment for
a four year per iod.
Evergreen has, typically , been
slow in at trac tin g new freshmen
st udents . Most Evergreeners are
transfer st ud ents or co ntinuing
educat io n students.
For th e co ming year , Enrollment Serv ices plans to conce ntrate. on ident ify in g Evergreen to
various audiences througho ut th ~
state and co nvince pa rents , co u~ ­
se lo rs, and high scho ol students
that Evergreen is a goo d pla ce to
start their education ,
It was ge nerally agreeu upon
that enroll me nt servi ces did a
good job a t in c rea s i~ g enrollment
this summer and they hope that
they can do eve n more to swe ll
the rank s of Evergreeners. Bu t
La rry Stenberg sees it as a con·
cerned effort by all. a nd hc'pes
he can keep up the m omentum .
" The Dean s worked hard on

advis in g, The re gist rat ion pro cess
went very smoot hly under pressure co nditi ons a nd the facul ty
stayed very flexible by taking extra contracts and being availab le
to students during th e sum mer, "

Charles McCann

by Jill Stewart
A surprised and , in some cases, shocked
audience listened September 15th as President Charles McCann announced his resignation at the conclusion of a speech to
faculty in which he outlined faculty goals
for the year. McCann said he w"s leaving
because he had been with Evergreen for
nine years, and that was "long enough for
anyone,"
H is resignation will take effect in June
of 1977.
Fans and critics alike seem to agree that
McCann made a w ise decision in stepping
down at this time . Faculty member Rich ard Jones said, "I urged him strongly, and
I think many others on the faculty urged
him strongly, last spring, to think of re-

signing. I think everyone had sensed that
the time had come for a change in leadership and I think Charlie himself came to
that conclusion."
Crit ics of McCann have maintain ed
that he had been a poor manager and
leader by avoiding decisio n-making and
ruling with a too-light hand.
McCann admitted that he has made relatively few decision s in his years here,
saying , "I just don't work that way." He
said that bud ge t decisions seldom need to
be o verridden because "a lot of our prioriti es aro und here seem to be shared." McCann sa id he was "lucky to find enough
people who shared a vision of the college
close eno ugh to mine that our worlds
overl apped. "
Richa rd Jones would like to see a new
president who can come in and guide the
fa cul ty toward setting up "standards" im proved studen t and faculty portfo lios,
grea ter scholarship in faculty se minars,
and more detailed a nd accurate program
hi sto ri es. He sa id, "I don 't think that 's go ing to happe n un less a new president
comes in and says, 'Now yo u do it'."
Faculty member Tom Ra iney disagrees,
Rainey expressed concern with a feeling
among the fa culty that what they need is
a good manage r. "Many, man y times
their judgment of Charlie has been , 'Well ,
he's just not managing us well enough.'
Well helL we should be able to manage
ourse lv es . . . It seems to me that a lot of
the criticism of Charlie as being a poor
manager is just a monstrous escape from
freedom a nd responsibili ty on the part of
the faculty. " But Rainey added that he felt
it was time for McCann to move on .
"Charlie has been th'e appropriate presi·
dent for the heroic stage of Evergreen, I
think we've moved beyond that stage.
The heroic stage I would define as that
stage in which we thought all things were
possible."
How does Charles McCann fee l about
all that he has accomplished? "If, back in
August 1968, I had sketched out in words
that would encompass all the details and

all the achievements of Evergreen today,
I'd have really thought I was fantasizing,"
he said. "We've come farther along in the
, , . six years of our operation than I
would have thought reasonably possible, "
McCa nn exp ressed sat isfaction with the
main out line of the Long Range Curriculum plan. He said the two-year co ntinu ing programs "introduce so me elements of
stabi lity so students and facu lt y can look
a head . . . and yet retain a good portion
of time a nd energy fo r new ideas and
co mbina tio ns."
He cited the lack of freshmen entering
Evergree n directl y from high sc hool as
o ne of Evergreen's most serious prob lems,
ca uti oning that although he hoped to see
the number of fres hm en jump from the
prese nt seve n percen t to 15 o r 25 percent ,
he "wouldn 't wa nt hal f th e peop le aro und
here wearing beanies, " McCann also said
that any school "out in fr o nt" like Ever green wou ld probably be reorga ni zed over
the years, but that he hoped Evergreen
never suffered from what he called "hardening of the categories."
Richard Jones singled out Evergreen 's
emphasis on coope rative , rather than co mpet it ive, learning as Evergreen 's single
most important accomplishment in , .x
yea rs. He said he felt that Evergreen had
not "go t all the way there yet ," but that it
was a unique accomplishment among co lleges. " I don't know whether that was
what Charlie had in mind for the place,
but that 's what we' ve got," Jones said .
With the search for a new president
abou t to formally begin , and rumors of
the possibility that Evans is consideri ng
the job, the question arises - what kind
of person will be good for Evergreen?
Tom Rainey is particularly concerned
that Evergreen will "opt for what they
co nsider to be a good manager and ignore
the fact that that particular leader ... has
no intellectual standards whatsoever, and
has no concept of academic excellence,"
He expressed "fear " that if Evans were appointed he would be more concerned with
"administering the faculty" than with con -

Richar'd fOlies
su iti ng wi th them and being a part of
them . Rainey added that he had no rt'al
basis for hi s feelings but was cuncerned
with the "rush towards Evans ."
However, Richard Jon es said it was "no
secret" th a t if Evans were selected "both
McCann and prob ablv a majority llf th~
fa cult y wou ld just jump for joy. ,. Jones
said he felt it wot:ld be like "a git! trom
heaven. "
McCann prefe rred to remdin ,omew ha t
nonco mmittal on the iss ue, sayi ng o nly
that he thoug ht Evans ' appointment would
be "exciting,"
Where do ex -coll ege presidents go and
what do they d o with their li ves? McCann
is not quite sure. He may return to leach ing. He imp li ed as much when he sa id of
Evergreen, "One of m y secret agendas in
sta rtin g a college would be to crea te the
kind of place I'd give my rig ht arm tu
teach at. "
And he is more th a n wekum~ as Fa l a,
Jones and Rainey are concerned. Jone~
said , ''I'm proposing fo r the cur ri culum
next yea r that we repeat Dreal1l s and Pn
etry . . . I haven' t told thi s to Cha rlie yet,
bu t I'm going to ask him to join me .
I've seen him in se minars, I' ve heard I l'( '
tures that he's given , and I ju st know he',
one hell of a good teacher ."

The final death scene is the culmination of the destructiv~

a direct result of the Ho ly Roman conspiracy perpetrated by

CENTER FOR
READING
AUTHORITARIAN
T" the Editor:
Pe rhap s we made a mistake
with the recent C-DRAW (Cente r for t he Development of Reading and Writing Skills) literacy
tes t. A lthough the hoped for
effect of helping improve student
skills is a desirable goaL it is the
method of attainment of an end
that determines its value. For
this reason , si nce C-ORAW's action was a uthoritarian, no one
should have participated in it.
Af ter reading the memorandum dated 9:15176 from C DRAW about the test , you too
might agree on its elitist nature.
This pa per written to teachers
d iHered from the yell ow one for
, tudents. The students are told
Evergreen places the respo nsi :
biltly for learning on the s tu dent. '" However . on the teacher's
form it explai ns, '" The ones !certa i n students! who have s pent
years deve lop ing coping strategies an d techniques for avo iding
wha t they may fail at will be the
nnes who have the most compe lling a nd convincing reasons
why they ca nnot take the assessment when you !the teachers]
have it schedu led .'" It appears CDRAW does not truly believe in
students fulfill ing th eir educational responsibilities. Instead ,
C -ORA W wished it to appear
having all the policing powers of
a co mpu lsory test, as shown in
this wa rning about deviance to
t he teachers.
Throughout the memorandum
are sow n the seeds of the authorIta rian . An at tempt is made to
" (' 1 up the I-Them relationship
hetwee n teacher and student that
wo uld support C-DRAW's elit ism. C-D RAW implies stude nts

ceived teachers by misrepresenting their skills to tliem (as shown
In the memorandum under
section B, paragraph 1-3). In
dealing with the factions it tried
to aliena te from one another, CDRAW baits support from them
at the same time. Teachers are
promised lower program attrition
if C-DRAW's actions are successful. Students are given the
hope of easier job and grad
sc hool placement.
Perhaps these shady goings on
appear justified since certain students have in fact tried to evade
their educational responsibility.
But a finger is pointed and three
point to ourselves. We have
started to undermine education
at Evergreen . In our acquies cence, we have allowed ourselves
to be paternally herded . into a
class action where we are treated
as less than true individuals with
unique responsibilities. If carried
further, such a state of supported
amnesia of our human essence
not only does not help education , but must impede it.
Submitting to parental authority is not admirable since we
have seen our parents having as
many faults as ourselves. We can
see C-DRAW's failure as it made
four spelling errors in just two
lJaragraphs telling the teachers
their students might have a spelling problem.
It was C-DRAW 's mistake to
propagate such authoritarianism .
However, it was our responsibility not to fall into the blind
masses I enlightened elitists dichotomy. It is easy to be just
students and teachers who take
and give tests without being consc ious of the issues of our humanity behind our roles.
Little fucking tests that administrators are sa id to play with do
not alarm people much just as
daily events that brought Hitler
to power didn't a larm the everyday German. But C-DRAW's ac-

tion foreshadows Evergreen's
failure . By taking that test we
acted to deny education at Evergreen , not help it.
We all bear the responsibility.
Students, administrators, teachers: we, Evergreen, must do better than this.

NO FILMS? WE'VE
BEEN ROBBED
To the Editor: .
I am shocked at the news that
there will be no academic film
series this year at Evergreen. I
am shocked, I am shocked, I am
outraged! Now that the Friday
Night Film people have admittedly gone disco (new, slick, and
popular). what mechanism is left
to encourage the TV generation
to keep in contact with the littleknown world beyond the green
(as in money) door7
The Academic Film Series provided such a rich diversity of
perspectives, covering both the
historically true and the fantastically false , that I was surprised
no academic credit was offered
to those who regularly attended
the weekly freebies.
We, as a community, have
been robbed ! Bring it back .
Stephen D. Rabow

Editor's note: You will be
pleased to know that the Academic Film Series has indeed
been resurrected, This year the
films w ill be shown Wednesday
afternoons and evenings. The
first film , scheduled for October
13, is "Battle of Algiers." See the
Arts and Entertainment column
on page 11 for further details.

Now that the resignation of
President McCann has been formally announced, our thoughts
naturally turn to his successor.
Many people on campus and off
are bandying about the name of
Governor Dan Evans,
The Daily "0" recently speculated openly about the possibility
that Evans is interested in the
job . And a starry-eyed colleague
walked up to me the other day
and said, "Wo uldn't it be great if
Evans was our next president?"
I'm not so sure. Maybe. Maybe
not.
After all, what do we know

about Evans' qualifications to
lead an institution of higher
learning7 He seems an able administrator. Is that all we want7
Don't we also want a president
that possesses some intellectual
and pedogogical vision 7 Or do
we really only want to be man,aged we1l7 These are questions
we must face in the very near future.
Whatever our individual answers may be, all constituencies
of Evergreen - faculty, students,
staff - should have a hand in
picking our next president. A
college-wide search committee
shou ld be selected. It should rigorously examine the qualifications of all interested candidates
and recommend the best qualified to the Board of Trustees ,
Dan Evans may be the best
qualified candidate, but that fact
remains to be proved. We dare
not assume that his ability to administer the State of Washington
and his unquestioni!d support of
Evergreen automatically qualifies
him for the job.

REVIEWER
MIS-SAW MOVIE
To the Editor:
This letter is in response to
Mr. Stan Shore's brief review of
the film Robin and Marian in the
August 12 issue.
Mr. Shore states that the film
was modeled on the functions of
the mind as set forth in Kant's
Critique of Pure Reason, Mr.
Shore misread, or rather mis-saw
the movie, in my opinion.
Mr. Shore recommends the
film to philosophy majors only.
Obvious ly Mr. Shore Cdnnot be
counted among these , or he
would have seen that the film
was not a statement of Kantian
maunderings about unity , but instead wrapped around a Nietzschian dynamic of the will to
power and the struggle between
the Appollinian ;1nd Dionysian
dua lities of man.
Robin , of course, represented
the Dionysian; Marian , the Appol lin ian ; Richard the lionHearted, the declining and rapidly deteriorating Dionysian (a
decadent unable to meet the
standards of divinity); the Sheriff of Nottingham a retrogressing
warrior on the verge of dandyism (I would refer Mr. Shore to
the works of Beaudelaire for information on this matter). who,
with a last. suicidal will throws

from this was that student responses to a teacher range
widely. I feel that it is incumbent upon any agency reporting
evaluations to recognize this and
to design their reports accordingIy. It is simply not fair to anyone to be judged in such a statistically unsound manner.

LONG LIVE
BOZOISM
To the Editor:

When the Cooper Point Journal printed the "Guide To The
Facu lty" in the August 26 Orientation Issue, we overheard res ponses ranging from sinister
laughter to whispered gossip to
angry indignation . A few facu lt y
called their lawyers, but we have
received -no threats of suits and
do not expect to.
Some students complained that
the guide gave the school a bad
name, that it was another blow
to our local image. However,
most student responses have
been very positive.
One top-ranking Evergreen
admin istrator called the guide
"very well done," another said it
was "extremely accurate."
The most common response of
all was that the guide was a
good idea and should have been
done years ago.
Probably the biggest fault of
the guide was that it tended to
give mediocre faculty reviews
that landed a bit too far on the
positive side.
When we printed the gUide we
requested that people send us responses which we wou ld print in
the Journal. We will continue to
print responses for the next few
weeks, and we hope to have
another edition' of the guide in
the next Journal , This, however,
depends on how many students
come in to write Jor us. If you

are interested in writing about
some facu lty you have had, and
think you can represent general
student opin ion, come up to the
Journal office in CAB 306, and
we' ll talk about it.

I NEVER SAID
To the Editor:
I never said, "Everything is everything." What I said was, "The
only reality is the transition of
one 's ideas into rhythm and
beautiful movements."
Craig Carlson

GUIDE NOT FAIR
To the Editor:

I urge you not to repeat the
procedures that you followed for
producing the faculty evaluatio!1s
that appeared in the Orientation
Issue. Though I appreciate your
goal of providing students with a
description of each faculty member you in fact fell far short of a
balanced evaluation , Whenever
you express only the v iews of
one or two students you are
bound to be inaccurate. Before
coming to Evergreen I taught at
a college where evaluations by
students were meticulously tab ulated and reported to faculty.
The universal truth that emerged

It has been insinuated that
Craig Carlson and hi s st udents
are Bozos. I have been a Bozo
for six months now . Not only
have I been motivated an d given
the tools by Craig Carlson but
he has shown me the way to direct and use that energy. I have
always been a creat ive energy
force but it has been supp ressed
and scattered. My wife, who is a
former Paid-Up Bozo, learned so
much from Mr. Carlso n that she
is returning for "Com munications and Community, " (Advanced Bozoism) along with me
this year.
We have initiated a plan wit h
local performing artists in conjunction w ith the "Communica tions and Community" program
.to set up, staff, and propagate a
multi-media communications
center in Port Townsend. We
feel that it will become a signifi cant institution to further Bozoism in a small community's future. It appears to us tha t one
Bozo is a beginning, two Bozos
it's a movement. But when you
get more than four or five Bozos
congregating in an area, it's a
Revolution!
Viva la Revolution! Long Live
Bozoism!

I was concerned about denigration of college and faculty by
some local organizations and individuals. I therefore availed myself of the opportu nity open to
senior citizen~ to attend lectures
and audit courses in an effort to
find my personal and realistic
basis for evaluat ion of the institution .
Among faculty members whose
lectures I attended and whose
courses I audited, I particularly
appreciated Marilyn Frasca, Mark
Papworth, Maxine Mimms and
Cra ig Carlson. Your "student"
evalua ti ons of Papworth a nd
Mimms were adequate; that of
Frasca a bit less so; and that of
Carlson sn id e a nd s ly-witted.
Ca rlson is young a nd not ye t a t
the peak of his teaching ab ilit y .
However, I found him inspira·
tional and adept in utilizin g th e
abundance of audio-visual fac ilities at th e college.
No, he didn ' t pa rse sentences
or impose basic rot e learning matters appropriate to elemen tary and high schoo ls. Instead,
he injected a s hot of adrenalin
into the higher learning process.
Carlson's shot of adrenal in
helped able s tudents to self-realization , the ability to think , and
a deeper compre hension of
literature and language. I assess
him not as a remedial tutor, but
as a college level teacher.
Thank you for a llow ing me to
express my evaluation of him.
S incerely,
Margaret E. Gabbard

To the Editor:
I must protest the assessment
of instructor Craig Carlson in the
faculty eva luation feature published recently as a "service" to
potential st udents. It w<\s extremely biased, unfair and misleading. It fails to mention rather

watch Craig attempt to serve his
students despite a serious illness
throughout much of Winter and
Spring quarters of 1976. He gave
of energy he badly needed to
conserve in an effort to meet his
teaching commitments. In my
judgment this was not the act of
an irresponsible teacher.
As th e coordinator for the
Penny Press, an innovative effort
designed by Mr. Carlson to acquaint poets with publishing and
graphics as an extension of their
art form, I deliberated with Craig
quite carefully as to artistic cri teria and editoria l responsibility.
Our decision to involve all the
members of the class equa ll y was
shared by the entire contract.
Whatever the qua lity of the product , th e deci sion -ma kin g was
done by as many st ud ent s as
wished to involv e themselve s.
I feel Evergreen is not operated
as a showcase, but as a learnin g
expe ri e nce. When Evergre en
ceases to approach educat ion in
this way, throu gh talented and
innovative instructors like Craig
Carlson, it will become on ly one
more degree fac tory.
I am not competent to judge
Craig's expert ise in media. I suggest that the student who wishes
to concentrate on media tech niques professionally might be
better served at a technical
school.
Finally, it seems strange to me
that a teacher of dubious merit
cou ld possibly manage to fill his
contract schedules long before
registration, be forced to reject
well-qualified students thereby;
and be so consistently in demand
for advice and counsel if, in fact.
he is a mediocre instructor capable of attracting only mediocrity .
The assessment of the Cooper

vary with my own experience
and that of many other students.
I offer my commen t not out of

himself into mortal combat with
Robin, the noble savage. There
is , of course, only one logical resu lt.
The film is resolved in the
death of its main characters all of them eventually excep t the
loyal homosexual , Little John.
The final death scene is the culmination of the destructiv~
powers, not of warriors, but of
the Appollinian Marian who,
confused and bound by a feeble
religion - causes Robin's death;
a direct result of the Ho ly Roman conspiracy perpetrated by
the Pope in Rome .
The surprise is that Mr . Shore
did not see all this at once. I find
that I grow suspicious of his re views, and wary of his thinking.
Does anyone remember his
homosexua l interpretation of
Freebie and the Bean 7 What
motivates this man , I wonder.

CENTER FOR
READING
AUTHORITARIAN
T" the Editor:
Pe rhap s we made a mistake
with the recent C-DRAW (Cente r for t he Development of Reading and Writing Skills) literacy
tes t. A lthough the hoped for
effect of helping improve student
skills is a desirable goaL it is the
method of attainment of an end
that determines its value. For
this reason , si nce C-ORAW's action was a uthoritarian, no one
should have participated in it.
Af ter reading the memorandum dated 9:15176 from C DRAW about the test , you too
might agree on its elitist nature.
This pa per written to teachers
d iHered from the yell ow one for
, tudents. The students are told
Evergreen places the respo nsi :
biltly for learning on the s tu dent. '" However . on the teacher's
form it explai ns, '" The ones !certa i n students! who have s pent
years deve lop ing coping strategies an d techniques for avo iding
wha t they may fail at will be the
nnes who have the most compe lling a nd convincing reasons
why they ca nnot take the assessment when you !the teachers]
have it schedu led .'" It appears CDRAW does not truly believe in
students fulfill ing th eir educational responsibilities. Instead ,
C -ORA W wished it to appear
having all the policing powers of
a co mpu lsory test, as shown in
this wa rning about deviance to
t he teachers.
Throughout the memorandum
are sow n the seeds of the authorIta rian . An at tempt is made to
" (' 1 up the I-Them relationship
hetwee n teacher and student that
wo uld support C-DRAW's elit ism. C-D RAW implies stude nts

ceived teachers by misrepresenting their skills to tliem (as shown
In the memorandum under
section B, paragraph 1-3). In
dealing with the factions it tried
to aliena te from one another, CDRAW baits support from them
at the same time. Teachers are
promised lower program attrition
if C-DRAW's actions are successful. Students are given the
hope of easier job and grad
sc hool placement.
Perhaps these shady goings on
appear justified since certain students have in fact tried to evade
their educational responsibility.
But a finger is pointed and three
point to ourselves. We have
started to undermine education
at Evergreen . In our acquies cence, we have allowed ourselves
to be paternally herded . into a
class action where we are treated
as less than true individuals with
unique responsibilities. If carried
further, such a state of supported
amnesia of our human essence
not only does not help education , but must impede it.
Submitting to parental authority is not admirable since we
have seen our parents having as
many faults as ourselves. We can
see C-DRAW's failure as it made
four spelling errors in just two
lJaragraphs telling the teachers
their students might have a spelling problem.
It was C-DRAW 's mistake to
propagate such authoritarianism .
However, it was our responsibility not to fall into the blind
masses I enlightened elitists dichotomy. It is easy to be just
students and teachers who take
and give tests without being consc ious of the issues of our humanity behind our roles.
Little fucking tests that administrators are sa id to play with do
not alarm people much just as
daily events that brought Hitler
to power didn't a larm the everyday German. But C-DRAW's ac-

tion foreshadows Evergreen's
failure . By taking that test we
acted to deny education at Evergreen , not help it.
We all bear the responsibility.
Students, administrators, teachers: we, Evergreen, must do better than this.

NO FILMS? WE'VE
BEEN ROBBED
To the Editor: .
I am shocked at the news that
there will be no academic film
series this year at Evergreen. I
am shocked, I am shocked, I am
outraged! Now that the Friday
Night Film people have admittedly gone disco (new, slick, and
popular). what mechanism is left
to encourage the TV generation
to keep in contact with the littleknown world beyond the green
(as in money) door7
The Academic Film Series provided such a rich diversity of
perspectives, covering both the
historically true and the fantastically false , that I was surprised
no academic credit was offered
to those who regularly attended
the weekly freebies.
We, as a community, have
been robbed ! Bring it back .
Stephen D. Rabow

Editor's note: You will be
pleased to know that the Academic Film Series has indeed
been resurrected, This year the
films w ill be shown Wednesday
afternoons and evenings. The
first film , scheduled for October
13, is "Battle of Algiers." See the
Arts and Entertainment column
on page 11 for further details.

Now that the resignation of
President McCann has been formally announced, our thoughts
naturally turn to his successor.
Many people on campus and off
are bandying about the name of
Governor Dan Evans,
The Daily "0" recently speculated openly about the possibility
that Evans is interested in the
job . And a starry-eyed colleague
walked up to me the other day
and said, "Wo uldn't it be great if
Evans was our next president?"
I'm not so sure. Maybe. Maybe
not.
After all, what do we know

about Evans' qualifications to
lead an institution of higher
learning7 He seems an able administrator. Is that all we want7
Don't we also want a president
that possesses some intellectual
and pedogogical vision 7 Or do
we really only want to be man,aged we1l7 These are questions
we must face in the very near future.
Whatever our individual answers may be, all constituencies
of Evergreen - faculty, students,
staff - should have a hand in
picking our next president. A
college-wide search committee
shou ld be selected. It should rigorously examine the qualifications of all interested candidates
and recommend the best qualified to the Board of Trustees ,
Dan Evans may be the best
qualified candidate, but that fact
remains to be proved. We dare
not assume that his ability to administer the State of Washington
and his unquestioni!d support of
Evergreen automatically qualifies
him for the job.

REVIEWER
MIS-SAW MOVIE
To the Editor:
This letter is in response to
Mr. Stan Shore's brief review of
the film Robin and Marian in the
August 12 issue.
Mr. Shore states that the film
was modeled on the functions of
the mind as set forth in Kant's
Critique of Pure Reason, Mr.
Shore misread, or rather mis-saw
the movie, in my opinion.
Mr. Shore recommends the
film to philosophy majors only.
Obvious ly Mr. Shore Cdnnot be
counted among these , or he
would have seen that the film
was not a statement of Kantian
maunderings about unity , but instead wrapped around a Nietzschian dynamic of the will to
power and the struggle between
the Appollinian ;1nd Dionysian
dua lities of man.
Robin , of course, represented
the Dionysian; Marian , the Appol lin ian ; Richard the lionHearted, the declining and rapidly deteriorating Dionysian (a
decadent unable to meet the
standards of divinity); the Sheriff of Nottingham a retrogressing
warrior on the verge of dandyism (I would refer Mr. Shore to
the works of Beaudelaire for information on this matter). who,
with a last. suicidal will throws

A GAP CAN BE

Genera tion gap - you cry to

cultural gap that weighs

as the withered pages that creed

Generation gap, you cry
but weigh the tons of unknowledge that pull apart
the cultures
who live side by side in this land
of the brave and the free
that shrouds the native sons
of this land of thousands
of years
who cry frozen bitter tears; the
Black who bitterly fight to
keep their souls, their hearts
and their beings quiet
lest cold judgments begin anew
Silent in the night somewhere we
weep
and twist in futile torment
to lift the blanket of the blind
must we forever put our
prayers to the wind
we who are made into Christian
Indians or Black Afro Jews
do we forever forget who
we are and what we mean

from this was that student responses to a teacher range
widely. I feel that it is incumbent upon any agency reporting
evaluations to recognize this and
to design their reports accordingIy. It is simply not fair to anyone to be judged in such a statistically unsound manner.

LONG LIVE
BOZOISM
To the Editor:

When the Cooper Point Journal printed the "Guide To The
Facu lty" in the August 26 Orientation Issue, we overheard res ponses ranging from sinister
laughter to whispered gossip to
angry indignation . A few facu lt y
called their lawyers, but we have
received -no threats of suits and
do not expect to.
Some students complained that
the guide gave the school a bad
name, that it was another blow
to our local image. However,
most student responses have
been very positive.
One top-ranking Evergreen
admin istrator called the guide
"very well done," another said it
was "extremely accurate."
The most common response of
all was that the guide was a
good idea and should have been
done years ago.
Probably the biggest fault of
the guide was that it tended to
give mediocre faculty reviews
that landed a bit too far on the
positive side.
When we printed the gUide we
requested that people send us responses which we wou ld print in
the Journal. We will continue to
print responses for the next few
weeks, and we hope to have
another edition' of the guide in
the next Journal , This, however,
depends on how many students
come in to write Jor us. If you

are interested in writing about
some facu lty you have had, and
think you can represent general
student opin ion, come up to the
Journal office in CAB 306, and
we' ll talk about it.

I NEVER SAID
To the Editor:
I never said, "Everything is everything." What I said was, "The
only reality is the transition of
one 's ideas into rhythm and
beautiful movements."
Craig Carlson

GUIDE NOT FAIR
To the Editor:

I urge you not to repeat the
procedures that you followed for
producing the faculty evaluatio!1s
that appeared in the Orientation
Issue. Though I appreciate your
goal of providing students with a
description of each faculty member you in fact fell far short of a
balanced evaluation , Whenever
you express only the v iews of
one or two students you are
bound to be inaccurate. Before
coming to Evergreen I taught at
a college where evaluations by
students were meticulously tab ulated and reported to faculty.
The universal truth that emerged

It has been insinuated that
Craig Carlson and hi s st udents
are Bozos. I have been a Bozo
for six months now . Not only
have I been motivated an d given
the tools by Craig Carlson but
he has shown me the way to direct and use that energy. I have
always been a creat ive energy
force but it has been supp ressed
and scattered. My wife, who is a
former Paid-Up Bozo, learned so
much from Mr. Carlso n that she
is returning for "Com munications and Community, " (Advanced Bozoism) along with me
this year.
We have initiated a plan wit h
local performing artists in conjunction w ith the "Communica tions and Community" program
.to set up, staff, and propagate a
multi-media communications
center in Port Townsend. We
feel that it will become a signifi cant institution to further Bozoism in a small community's future. It appears to us tha t one
Bozo is a beginning, two Bozos
it's a movement. But when you
get more than four or five Bozos
congregating in an area, it's a
Revolution!
Viva la Revolution! Long Live
Bozoism!

Stolllping Grapes
at Ste. Michelle
by Curt Milton
Look out, Olympia I Your
brewery tour is in for some
sharp competition.
Chateau Ste. Michelle (pronounced Sahn Meshell), the latest venture by Washington State's
largest wine producer, opened to
the public Sept. 22. Already it's
the ' hottest thing going in
Woodinville.
The Chateau, located on a
scenic 87 acre estate, is actually
just the front for the winery it self. all 140,000 square feet of it.
Inside, visitors view the winemaking process up close. Stops
on the guided tour include crushing, fermentation, racking and
filtration, and aging and bottling.
The last stop is the tasting room
where visitors can relax and enjoy free samples of Ste. Michelle's
premium wines.
Also located on the premises is
a retail wine shop where wine is
available by the bottle or case at
wholesale prices.

and Burgundy regions of France.
To say that the wines are "decent" would be like calling FelHni an amateur. Ste. Michelle
produces some of the finest
wines in the world. Period. In repeated blind tastings they have
taken top honors in competition
with premium American and
European wines. So popular is
Ste. Michelle that all the wine released last summer has been
sold .
Although the company pushes
the red wines. white is where it's
at at Ste . Michelle. The SemilIon. Johannisberg Riesling and
Chenin Blanc are all excellent
white wines, appropriate before,
during and after any type of
meal . These wines have a delicate taste that's hard to describe
other than to say that it is extremely good and different from
most white wines. The high
sugar and acid content of the
Yakima Valley grapes makes the
difference .

Michelle is hoping to better educate the public about wine in

particular.
In case you've had your nose
in a Ripple bottle the last 10
years, a short explanation about
Ste. Michelle wines is in order.
When they were first introduced in 1967. nobody paid
much attention to Ste. Michelle's
wines. The Washington State
wine industry had been dominated for years by cheap, poorly
produced fruit and berry wines.
The difference between those and
this newest entry was that Ste.
Michelle used grapes, real honest'to-gosh European vinifera. The
vineyards were located in the
Yakima Valley where the latitude, climate and soil conditions

Be warned! Ste. Michelle does
not make cheap "$1.10 a gallon"
wine. Expect to pay from $2.50
to $3.50 for the Semillon and
$4.50 to $5.00 for the Chen in
Blanc. Other wines also fall in
that range. but the reds are generally cheaper than the whites. If
by some fluke you chance onto a
bottle of pre-1975 vintage, no
matter what type of Ste. Michelle
wine it is. expect to pay a bundle
for it. It'll be worth it, down to
the absolute last drop.
Chateau Ste. Michelle is open

Curriculum Planning for
Next Year Already Begun

The "Expressive Arts" group met

, as

to plan the 1977 - 78 curriculum for their area.

by Nei l Marshall
Courses to be offered next
vear at Evergreen will largely
have been decided after October
13 . The faculty have already had
two meetings to propose and review pos s ible programs, and
only one more remains (on Oct.
11th).
T here are two ways to initiate
programs that have not already
been planned for. One will open
the way for students who have
proposal ideas they recognize as
essential for their educations in
the coming yea r. The faculty and
deans acknowledge that such
ideas come to students fairly late

in the year, and that very few
people are thinking ahead to
next year just after enrolling in a
one-hundred-percent involvement program, But, if students
do have a program or group
contract in mind, the sooner
they expose themselves and gain
recognition for it, the better. The
proposal doesn't have to be in
final draft for a couple of weeks
yet, but it should be written up
as fully as possible and taken to
a faculty who might be able to
sponsor it, or to the deans who
will then direct the proposer to
pertinenf f<lculty .
The second avenue for initiating programs is through what is

called "annual programs."
Programs in this area are expected to engage about half of
the faculty and students next
year. Under "annual programs,"
programs may be added after the
Oct. 13 deadline to cover areas
which have been overlooked not
only by the faculty in their "Specialty" meetings, but by the creators of student-initiated programs.
The proposals for all of the
programs will be posted in the
library near the deans' offices.
The faculty sponsors and the
deans hope students will read
these proposals and make suggestions about how students
would like to see them altered.

With these rather tentative proposals students' suggestions
should have considerable impact. .
The DTF and the
Current Planning Structure
The planning which has gone
on so far implements recommendations made by the Long Range
Curricu lum DTF (Disappearing
Task Force). This was a group ,
comprised mostly of students,
that grew out of widespread dissatisfaction expressed in student
meetings a nd the all campus
"Teach-in" last year.
One source of that dissatisfaction stemmed from the "spontaneity" of program planning as it
has been carried out in the past.
This annual spontaneity resulted
in students being unable to plan
their education since no state- '
ment, let alone any guarantee, of
what would be offered for the
next year could be made until
April. And students found their
academic life to be longer than
one year even in a one-hundredpercent program.
The Long Range Curriculum
DTF recommended that the
college commit itself to courses
in nine areas of study with both
introductory and advanced level
programs on a continuing basis.
Students would then be assured
that a program of some general
kind would be taught even four
years in advance. And they
would be assured that after

The Artichoke' Mode
taking a program in say, Health
Care, an advanced course in
some aspect of the same area
would be offered in the upcoming year .
Speed
The entire process of curricu1um planning has been moved up
in the calendar year. It used to
occur in December, and even January, for a catalogue that came
out in March. This year it is being done in October for a catalogue to be finished in early Jan uary.
Though this will allow the admissions office to tell high school
and Jr. College students Evergreen's offerings before they
make their choice of colleges,
and though it will allow students
here to plan specifically what
they will take at an earlier date,
it impedes student input into curriculum planning and generation .
The hope is that the annual offerings will be flexible enough,
and the college is certain enough
of the students' future needs,
that students will be satisfied
with the specialty offerings.
There will be specialty area
and annual area meetings on
Oct. 11. In addition a student
consultative pool is being organ ized, and there is a second curriculum fair in the offing. Students will have at least these
three ways to influence the offerings for next year.

Director of Counseling George
Hom is managing in spite of severe
cuts to the counseling budget.
$18,572 or approximately four
percent from the previous year.
Because of the loss of revenue,
Dean of Enrollment Services
Larry Stenberg met with the staff

•

Director Hom views the cutbacks as a deterrent to the whole
philosophy behind counse ling
services .
"We were on more of a
human develop!l1ent and preventative mode\. " he said . "We could
handle more casual problems
and people who just dropped in .
No w we must take the more
dras tic problems; which makes it
a less preventative mode!." •
The money problem arose
when the State Legislature cut
back 10 % of the funds available
to the Enrollment Services area
fo r the 1976-77 biennium. This
makes a total cut of 20 % over
th e last two years and is designed
to briFlg Evergreen's Services
area to that which is funded to
other schoo ls of comparable size.
Though percen tage cuts were
made, FTE (full time students) al loca tions have been raised over
the last few years, thus giving
Enrollment Services a total of
$443 ,833 for the 76-77 year. This
is an ac tual dollar los s of

of Enrollment Services (Registrar,
Admissions, Dean of Student
Services, Veterans Affairs, Counseling, Financial Aid, Placement,
Health Servic~s and Recreation
and Campus A~tivities) to work
out the budget problems . After a
priority system was developed (a
sca le of 1 to 11, based on student
retention), Counseling ended up
on the bottom with four points
and the Registrar's office was
first with ten points. The low
priority rating, combined with
the fact that 85 - 90 % of Enrollment Services monies goes to salaries, caused a reduction in work
force; thus eliminating funds for
the two counseling positions.
" It was the only place we
could cut," said Larry Stenberg.
The money that was cut from
counseling, as well as other per sonnel time in other areas, was
quickly absorbed by some State
pay raises for employees and inflation in the goods and services.
Some departments in Enrollment
Services were allocated mor e
money than last year: Admissio n s receiver! $8,840 more,
Dean of Student Services $7,813
m ore, Registrar $3,773 more ,

and Jr. College students Evergreen's offerings before they
make their choice of colleges,
and though it will allow students
here to plan specifically what
they will take at an earlier date,
it impedes student input into curriculum planning and generation .
The hope is that the annual offerings will be flexible enough,
and the college is certain enough
of the students' future needs,
that students will be satisfied
with the specialty offerings.
There will be specialty area
and annual area meetings on
Oct. 11. In addition a student
consultative pool is being organ ized, and there is a second curriculum fair in the offing. Students will have at least these
three ways to influence the offerings for next year.

Director of Counseling George
Hom is managing in spite of severe
cuts to the counseling budget.
$18,572 or approximately four
percent from the previous year.
Because of the loss of revenue,

Director Hom views the cutbacks as a deterrent to the whole
philosophy behind counse ling
services .
"We were on more of a
human develop!l1ent and preventative mode\. " he said . "We could
handle more casual problems
and people who just dropped in .
No w we must take the more
dras tic problems; which makes it
a less preventative mode!." •
The money problem arose
when the State Legislature cut
back 10 % of the funds available
to the Enrollment Services area
fo r the 1976-77 biennium. This
makes a total cut of 20 % over
th e last two years and is designed
to briFlg Evergreen's Services
area to that which is funded to
other schoo ls of comparable size.
Though percen tage cuts were
made, FTE (full time students) al loca tions have been raised over
the last few years, thus giving
Enrollment Services a total of
$443 ,833 for the 76-77 year. This
is an ac tual dollar los s of

of Enrollment Services (Registrar,
Admissions, Dean of Student
Services, Veterans Affairs, Counseling, Financial Aid, Placement,
Health Servic~s and Recreation
and Campus A~tivities) to work
out the budget problems . After a
priority system was developed (a
sca le of 1 to 11, based on student
retention), Counseling ended up
on the bottom with four points
and the Registrar's office was
first with ten points. The low
priority rating, combined with
the fact that 85 - 90 % of Enrollment Services monies goes to salaries, caused a reduction in work
force; thus eliminating funds for
the two counseling positions.
" It was the only place we
could cut," said Larry Stenberg.
The money that was cut from
counseling, as well as other per sonnel time in other areas, was
quickly absorbed by some State
pay raises for employees and inflation in the goods and services.
Some departments in Enrollment
Services were allocated mor e
money than last year: Admissio n s receiver! $8,840 more,
Dean of Student Services $7,813
m ore, Registrar $3,773 more ,

Bootleg Records: Whats the Dif£?
by Matt Groening
Most of you know the score
about underground records.
However, for new initiates, here
is the trip. The purpose of these
records is meant to be in ADDITION to an artist's regular releases - NOT IN PLACE OF.
Not everyone likes all groups
and artists. We all have our favorites. Once we've collected all
the works of our favorite artists

I t all began in 1969 wi th the
appearance of a two-record set
of unreleased Bob Dylan songs
called Great White Wonder. The
sound quality was terrible, but
Dylan fanatics didn't care, and it
sold hundreds of thousands of
copies. Hip entrepreneurs raised
their eyebrows and began crank ing out bootlegs by the truckload. If a competitor came up
with a hot item, the bootleg
would be bootlegged. There
must be hundreds of different
Dylan bootlegs now on the market. Most of them stink, but a
few are considered essential by
Dylan devotees. These include

There are even more Beatles
bootlegs than Bob Dylan ones.
Concerts, movie soundtracks,
newsreels, inter'/iews, have all
found their w<.y onto under ground records. BeatIe collectors
will buy anything, including recordings of a demo tape played
for Ed Sullivan in 1964 by transAtlantic telephone, or a partially
mutilated tape stolen from an
Apple garbage can in 1970. The
best of the bunch is FIVE
NIGHTS IN A JUDO ARENA,
recorded July 2, 1966, at th~
Budo Kan Hall in Tokyo. This
conolrt has been bootlegged under many different titles , but
don't confuse it with an inferior
recording of the July 1 Tokyo
concert. Another good Beatles
reco rding is LIVE AT THE
HOLL YWOOD BOWL 1964 , re-

putedly taken from a tape for a
legitimate album that Capitol
Records chose not to release.
This concert is also bootlegged
under the title GET YOUR
YEAH- YEAHS OUT, among
others.
The best studio material is
taken from sess io ns recorded
from January to June in 1969,
and released in different combinations on such double-albums
as SWEET APPLE TRAX, THE
APPLE TREASURE CHEST
MASTERS, and HOT AS SUN.
The sound quality is exr.ellent

Many of the songs "are in infanti le stages of deve lopment," as
one bootleg catalog puts it.
Another good Beatles bootleg
is RENAISSANCE MINSTRELS,
VOL. II, which feat ures Let [t Be
rehearsa ls and some rare Apple
45's. Except for a bootleg of the
Let It Be album (Kum Back) before it was Phil Spectorized, the
rest of the Beatles materi al is of
such lousy sound quality that it
is best avoided.
Solo Beatles bootlegs are
mostly undistinguished. The title
of a George Harrison bootleg DARK HOARSE - says it all.
The best Paul McCartney / Wings
bootleg is FLY SOUTH, taken
from an Australian TV special.

Review: Kissing Cousins
Steps for Hiring New President to Begin Soon
by Steve Kruse
It you 're placing bets on who
will be th e next President of Evergreen, it may be awhile before
you ca n collect.
To date , no official progress has be~n made in the selection of the person to fill the po sit ion left open by Evergreen
President Charles McCann's res-

ignation.
It is typical of most colleges
and universities to spend a good
deal of time appointing a new
person to the number one administration position in the institution. Sometimes it takes from six
months to a year for a college to
find the right individual - and
Evergree n shou ld be no exception.

The procedures for picking a
new president are fairly standard.
First the Board of Trustees will
put together job specifications, a
screening committee, and a time
line in which to accomplish the
task.
The job specifications usually
include the amount of salary,
length of contract, qualifications,
education, and experience re-

A screening committee must
also be designed to screen and
interview all applicants for the

committees are comprised of
people (appointed by the board)
from different factions of the

sometimes individuals from the
community at large. Screening
committees are usually directed
to make recommendations on
candidates or develop a list of a
specific amount of individuals
who are the best qualified. These
individuals are usually brought
to campus to undergo personal
interviews by those concerned.
One of the most important
items to be developed is a comprehensive time line in which the
whole process is going to be
completed (Evergreen is trying
for sometime in Mayor June
when President McCann will
step down). Time must be allocated to post the position and
receive applications, then more
ti me is needed to bring the top
contenders in to be personally interviewed. The Board of Trustees
will then go through a ll the accumulated data and make their
final decision.
All in all, it can be a very time consuming process and usually
takes at leas t six months , Within
the next few weeks most of the
details in Evergreen's presidential
search will be planned ou t and
put to work. But until then, the
odds are six to one that it will be
next Mayor June before any
money changes hands .

by Stan Shore
Some films lend themselves to
before-dinner viewing , while
others are best seen afterwards.
Intense films loaded with mean ing and existential anxiety have a
tendency to destroy one's appetite. The intellect is aroused and
the stomach unsettled . But other
films make a pleasant hors. d'oeuvre: not too "heavy," as it
were, to spoil a nice dinner.
Foreign films, and recent
French films in particular, have a
reputation for being intellectual
and obscure. They are Cinema,
with a capital "c." So it was
so mewhat surprising to see
"Cousin, Cousine," playing at
the Lakewood Terrace Theatre .
It is a light, well-made movie
that can only be described as endearing. Considering the recent
deluge of sado-masochistic movies, it ·is a strong recommendation to say that here is a film
which will not spoil one's dinner.
Not that "Cousin, Cousine" is
for children. It is a quite mature
love story about the relationship
between two cousins-by-marriage. (Thus the title , which
translates literally, "male cousin,
female cousin.") The story of
their affair, which begins platonically, develops at a series of
family get-togethers: first a wedding, then a funeral, another

wedding, then Christmas.
Marthe, the " cousine," ang.."
Ludovic, the "cousin," are first:!
thrown together when their respec tive spouses, Pascal and Karine, have a quick fling at the
wedding of Marthe's mother and
Ludovic's uncle. The two do not
set out to become lovers, but
rather swear to remain platonic
friends so as not to destroy their
affection. Later, when no one
will believe they are not lovers
anyway, they relent and have a
weekend of delightful sex.
There is something quite virginal about their early affection
for one another despite their
ages: 30 and 40. Ludovic is an
idealist who changes professions
every three years on principle:
now a. dance instructor, later a
trumpet player in a jazz band.
This infusion of idealism sometimes makes the film just the
slightest bit .s appy, but usually
the carefully written script strikes
just the right balance between
seriousness and inanity.
Without intruding on the tender story, the film also makes a
point about society. The adults
in the film are portrayed as childish, the children as mature. Cherished institutions like the Family
and the Church are shown by director Jean-Charles Tacchella to
be empty, irrelevant, and unim -

portant. These once powerful in stitu tions appear in the film diminished to the point of absurdity. " A republic should not have
churches," Ludovic's father says
a t o ne po int , expla ining why he
will not go in side a chape l. Hi s
moral obj ection, alth ough sin cere , sounds oddly dated. No
one ca res.
A lthough many fore ign films
brought to this country are "a rt "
films by famou s directors ,
"Cousin , Cousi ne" has no famous
director o r eve n famous actors to
help it out. It doesn' t need them.
Rock Hudson look-a lik e Victor
Lanou x as Ludov ic, and Liv U!I man look -alike Marie-Christine
Barrault as Marthe, give wonderful. ta lented performan ces. And
Tacchella, who a lso wrote the
screenplay, is a sou nd , competent director.
Although most Evergreeners

Elton John bootlegs also vary.
The best are ELDERBERRY
WINE and OL' PINK EYES IS
BACK. The latter is taken from
a 1975 London radio broadcast.
Bootlegs to be avoided include
SCOPE '72, HECHO IN MEXICO, and ELTON IN DISGUISE
WITH GLASSES.
Bruce Springsteen bootlegs are
proliferating despite action from
Columbia Records, which has
enlisted the eHor ts of the FBI to
stop the most popular Springstee n rec ord, LIVE, a sl ickly
packaged concert from The Bottom Line taped in August, 1975.
The so und mixing is awfu l and
there is a n irritating hum which
will keep all but the most dedi cated Springsteen zealots away,
bu t Columb ia still feels threatened. Other Springsteen bootlegs
include YOU CAN TRUST
YOUR CAR TO THE MAN
WHO WEARS THE STAR a nd
THE JERSEY DEVIL. both of un even quality.
Led Zeppelin bootlegs are no toriously bad, as are Janis joplin
bootlegs (GET IT WHILE YOU
CAN, INFINITY BLUES) and
underground records of jimi
Hendrix (LIVE AT THE FORUM, GOOD KARMA I and II,
a nd so on).
Good Jon i Mitchell bootlegs
include (KEPT ON) BY HER
OWN DEVICES, LENN[E AND
DOM SONGS (EARLY ON),
and IN PERFECT HARMONY ,
the last of which was taken from
a Royal Albert Hall concert in
1970 and which features james
Tay lor singing with Mitchell.
The best Rolling Stones boo tlegs, accord ing to a fanatic who
owns over 200 different Stones
boot legs, are: WELCOME TO

Bootleg Records: Whats the Dif£?
by Matt Groening
Most of you know the score
about underground records.
However, for new initiates, here
is the trip. The purpose of these
records is meant to be in ADDITION to an artist's regular releases - NOT IN PLACE OF.
Not everyone likes all groups
and artists. We all have our favorites. Once we've collected all
the works of our favorite artists
WHAT'S LEFT? This is
where underground records come
into the picture.

from 1962 - 65), and WHILE
THE ESTABLISHMENT BURNS
(live in Liverpool, May, 1966,
and at Carnegie Hall in 1965).

- Introductory hype from a
Ca lifornia bootleg record cata log.
I t all began in 1969 wi th the
appearance of a two-record set
of unreleased Bob Dylan songs
called Great White Wonder. The
sound quality was terrible, but
Dylan fanatics didn't care, and it
sold hundreds of thousands of
copies. Hip entrepreneurs raised
their eyebrows and began crank ing out bootlegs by the truckload. If a competitor came up
with a hot item, the bootleg
would be bootlegged. There
must be hundreds of different
Dylan bootlegs now on the market. Most of them stink, but a
few are considered essential by
Dylan devotees. These include
LIVE AT ROYAL ALBERT
HALL '66 (re-bootlegged many
times with slightly different
titles), SEEMS LIKE A FREEZEOUT (studio and live material

There are even more Beatles
bootlegs than Bob Dylan ones.
Concerts, movie soundtracks,
newsreels, inter'/iews, have all
found their w<.y onto under ground records. BeatIe collectors
will buy anything, including recordings of a demo tape played
for Ed Sullivan in 1964 by transAtlantic telephone, or a partially
mutilated tape stolen from an
Apple garbage can in 1970. The
best of the bunch is FIVE
NIGHTS IN A JUDO ARENA,
recorded July 2, 1966, at th~
Budo Kan Hall in Tokyo. This
conolrt has been bootlegged under many different titles , but
don't confuse it with an inferior
recording of the July 1 Tokyo
concert. Another good Beatles
reco rding is LIVE AT THE
HOLL YWOOD BOWL 1964 , re-

putedly taken from a tape for a
legitimate album that Capitol
Records chose not to release.
This concert is also bootlegged
under the title GET YOUR
YEAH- YEAHS OUT, among
others.
The best studio material is
taken from sess io ns recorded
from January to June in 1969,
and released in different combinations on such double-albums
as SWEET APPLE TRAX, THE
APPLE TREASURE CHEST
MASTERS, and HOT AS SUN.
The sound quality is exr.ellent
stereo, with lots of ta lking, fa lse
starts, and relaxed jamming.
Many of the songs "are in infanti le stages of deve lopment," as
one bootleg catalog puts it.
Another good Beatles bootleg
is RENAISSANCE MINSTRELS,
VOL. II, which feat ures Let [t Be
rehearsa ls and some rare Apple
45's. Except for a bootleg of the
Let It Be album (Kum Back) before it was Phil Spectorized, the
rest of the Beatles materi al is of
such lousy sound quality that it
is best avoided.
Solo Beatles bootlegs are
mostly undistinguished. The title
of a George Harrison bootleg DARK HOARSE - says it all.
The best Paul McCartney / Wings
bootleg is FLY SOUTH, taken
from an Australian TV special.
A loca l four-disc album of the
recent McCartney Seattle concert
has appeared, titled KINGDOME

Review: Kissing Cousins
Steps for Hiring New President to Begin Soon
by Steve Kruse
It you 're placing bets on who
will be th e next President of Evergreen, it may be awhile before
you ca n collect.
To date , no official progress has be~n made in the selection of the person to fill the po sit ion left open by Evergreen
President Charles McCann's res-

ignation.
It is typical of most colleges
and universities to spend a good
deal of time appointing a new
person to the number one administration position in the institution. Sometimes it takes from six
months to a year for a college to
find the right individual - and
Evergree n shou ld be no exception.

The procedures for picking a
new president are fairly standard.
First the Board of Trustees will
put together job specifications, a
screening committee, and a time
line in which to accomplish the
task.
The job specifications usually
include the amount of salary,
length of contract, qualifications,
education, and experience re-

quired to suit the college's needs.
A screening committee must
also be designed to screen and
interview all applicants for the
posi tion. Normally screening
committees are comprised of
people (appointed by the board)
from different factions of the
campus community: faculty,
board members, students, classified staff, administration, and

sometimes individuals from the
community at large. Screening
committees are usually directed
to make recommendations on
candidates or develop a list of a
specific amount of individuals
who are the best qualified. These
individuals are usually brought
to campus to undergo personal
interviews by those concerned.
One of the most important
items to be developed is a comprehensive time line in which the
whole process is going to be
completed (Evergreen is trying
for sometime in Mayor June
when President McCann will
step down). Time must be allocated to post the position and
receive applications, then more
ti me is needed to bring the top
contenders in to be personally interviewed. The Board of Trustees
will then go through a ll the accumulated data and make their
final decision.
All in all, it can be a very time consuming process and usually
takes at leas t six months , Within
the next few weeks most of the
details in Evergreen's presidential
search will be planned ou t and
put to work. But until then, the
odds are six to one that it will be
next Mayor June before any
money changes hands .

Some films lend themselves to
before-dinner viewing , while
others are best seen afterwards.
Intense films loaded with mean ing and existential anxiety have a
tendency to destroy one's appetite. The intellect is aroused and
the stomach unsettled . But other
films make a pleasant hors. d'oeuvre: not too "heavy," as it
were, to spoil a nice dinner.
Foreign films, and recent
French films in particular, have a
reputation for being intellectual
and obscure. They are Cinema,
with a capital "c." So it was
so mewhat surprising to see
"Cousin, Cousine," playing at
the Lakewood Terrace Theatre .
It is a light, well-made movie
that can only be described as endearing. Considering the recent
deluge of sado-masochistic movies, it ·is a strong recommendation to say that here is a film
which will not spoil one's dinner.
Not that "Cousin, Cousine" is
for children. It is a quite mature
love story about the relationship
between two cousins-by-marriage. (Thus the title , which
translates literally, "male cousin,
female cousin.") The story of
their affair, which begins platonically, develops at a series of
family get-togethers: first a wedding, then a funeral, another

wedding, then Christmas.
Marthe, the " cousine," ang.."
Ludovic, the "cousin," are first:!
thrown together when their respec tive spouses, Pascal and Karine, have a quick fling at the
wedding of Marthe's mother and
Ludovic's uncle. The two do not
set out to become lovers, but
rather swear to remain platonic
friends so as not to destroy their
affection. Later, when no one
will believe they are not lovers
anyway, they relent and have a
weekend of delightful sex.
There is something quite virginal about their early affection
for one another despite their
ages: 30 and 40. Ludovic is an
idealist who changes professions
every three years on principle:
now a. dance instructor, later a
trumpet player in a jazz band.
This infusion of idealism sometimes makes the film just the
slightest bit .s appy, but usually
the carefully written script strikes
just the right balance between
seriousness and inanity.
Without intruding on the tender story, the film also makes a
point about society. The adults
in the film are portrayed as childish, the children as mature. Cherished institutions like the Family
and the Church are shown by director Jean-Charles Tacchella to
be empty, irrelevant, and unim -

portant. These once powerful in stitu tions appear in the film diminished to the point of absurdity. " A republic should not have
churches," Ludovic's father says
a t o ne po int , expla ining why he
will not go in side a chape l. Hi s
moral obj ection, alth ough sin cere , sounds oddly dated. No
one ca res.
A lthough many fore ign films
brought to this country are "a rt "
films by famou s directors ,
"Cousin , Cousi ne" has no famous
director o r eve n famous actors to
help it out. It doesn' t need them.
Rock Hudson look-a lik e Victor
Lanou x as Ludov ic, and Liv U!I man look -alike Marie-Christine
Barrault as Marthe, give wonderful. ta lented performan ces. And
Tacchella, who a lso wrote the
screenplay, is a sou nd , competent director.
Although most Evergreeners

odor of pulp mills is not noticeable inside the Lakewood Terra.ce
Theatre. Only 30 minutes from
campus, south of grungy central
Tacoma, the theatre is worth
checking out.

Elton John bootlegs also vary.
The best are ELDERBERRY
WINE and OL' PINK EYES IS
BACK. The latter is taken from
a 1975 London radio broadcast.
Bootlegs to be avoided include
SCOPE '72, HECHO IN MEXICO, and ELTON IN DISGUISE
WITH GLASSES.
Bruce Springsteen bootlegs are
proliferating despite action from
Columbia Records, which has
enlisted the eHor ts of the FBI to
stop the most popular Springstee n rec ord, LIVE, a sl ickly
packaged concert from The Bottom Line taped in August, 1975.
The so und mixing is awfu l and
there is a n irritating hum which
will keep all but the most dedi cated Springsteen zealots away,
bu t Columb ia still feels threatened. Other Springsteen bootlegs
include YOU CAN TRUST
YOUR CAR TO THE MAN
WHO WEARS THE STAR a nd
THE JERSEY DEVIL. both of un even quality.
Led Zeppelin bootlegs are no toriously bad, as are Janis joplin
bootlegs (GET IT WHILE YOU
CAN, INFINITY BLUES) and
underground records of jimi
Hendrix (LIVE AT THE FORUM, GOOD KARMA I and II,
a nd so on).
Good Jon i Mitchell bootlegs
include (KEPT ON) BY HER
OWN DEVICES, LENN[E AND
DOM SONGS (EARLY ON),
and IN PERFECT HARMONY ,
the last of which was taken from
a Royal Albert Hall concert in
1970 and which features james
Tay lor singing with Mitchell.
The best Rolling Stones boo tlegs, accord ing to a fanatic who
owns over 200 different Stones
boot legs, are: WELCOME TO

Except in the areas of basic
sa nitation and a few relatively

uncomplicated techniques , Illich
believes the notion of medical
progress is mostly wishful thinking. He does not deny that in individual cases very expensive
and speCialized forms of inter vent ion might be successful, It is
simply that the injustice or such
treatment for a privileged minority costs us more socially
than it is worth. And the hoopla
surrounding the publicity given
to inconclusive medical research
and so-ca ll ed " miracle cures "
only clouds the fact that it 'is the
way we live w hi ch is making us
sick.
" i a tro ge ne sis" - the illnes s
w hich is caused by the doctor is the term used repeatedly in
lllich's book to describe the "d isease of medica l progress." Illich
divides iatrogenesis into three
ca legories. Firs t, there is clinical
iatrogell es is. which describes the
undesirab le side effects of appro v ed or mistaken medical
treatme nt. A Congressiona l subco mmittee recently est ima ted
that 2.38 mi lli on needless surgical
0peration s had been performed
i n 1974 , resulting in almos t
12, 000 deaths. Two and a half
billion prescriptions a re filled annually in this country a lone, and
between 50 and 80 percent of
American adu lts swallow a medically prescribed chemical every
24 to 36 hours. One consequence
is that adverse drug reactions are
among the top ten causes of hospitalization. The Department of
Health, Education, and Welfare
says that seven percent of all patients sustain compensable injuries in the hospital, though
most do not rea lize what has
happened to them . University
hospitals have the most scary
statistics: One in five patients
admitted to the average research
hospital picks up a disease there,
and one case in 30 leads to

•

Sickening

death .
Illich's second category, social
iatrogenesis, covers the sickness
which institutionalized medicine
promotes "by increasing stress,
by multiplying disabling dependence, by generalizing new painful needs, by lowering the levels
of tolerance for discomfort or
pain, by reducing the leeway
that people are wont to concede
to an individual when he suffers,
and by abolishing the right to
se lf -care ," The medical establishment encourages people to become "sick" co nsumers - hypochondriacs - through a barrage
of propaganda, rather than concentrating on changing the social co nditions which are the
major contributors to ill-health.
The third and most profoundly
devastating category is cu ltural
iatrogeYlesis, w hich refers to the
psyc ho logical or symbo li c effect
tha t li ving in a medicalized society has on each indi vid u a l' s perception of hi s or h er b ody.
People a re seen as passive patients and tha t is how they see
themselves. You trot in your
body to the clin ic the same way
yo u hand over yo ur TV to the
repai rma n. IIlich bel ieves th is
conception of the self as an object to be fixed will sap the will
of the people to suffer their own
reality by destroying their autonomous ability to cope with

their own bodies and self-healinS!:,
Illich best demonstrates his
ideas when he writes about the
medicalization of pain. He traces
the history of medical attitudes
back to the late Middle Ages,
when people in the West began
to recognize illness and death as
natural things, rather than the
result of magic or divine intervention. To make pain tolerable,
sickness understandable, and
death meaningful, traditional
cultures developed comforting
ritua ls and mythologies .
Bilt the modern medical enterprise is devoted to killing pain,
el imi nating sickness, and abolishing the need to know how to
suffer and die . Pain has been de tached from a ny context that
would give it meaning, and is
turned into a technical prob lem
that must be solved by the medical experts. No longer is pain a
challenge to be faced with digni ty - it is the enemy that must
be destroyed by advanced tech nol ogy. Yesterday's civic leaders
become today's tube feeders, and
they a ll want fast, fast relief.
But the trend in medicine is to
manage only certain aspects of
pain . [n the fog of the loca l anesthetic personal and intimate
questions associated with suffering are lost. What the hell is going on here? - Why me? -

What should I do? - Why does
this evil exist? - Can I take it?
- all questions to be ignored as
the body is numbed and the
knives are sharpened. Illich's
basic point: We can.n ot kill pain
without killing our humanness,
our dignity. As we decrease our
sensitivity to pain we also decrease our ability to experience
the simple joys and pleasures of
life , The alleviation of minor
aches and pains with the little
blue pills In the big blue bottles
leads to an anesth etized society,
one in which people are unfeeling spectators of their own decay.
So what is to be done? Illich
believes we must somehow recover our personal autonomy
from the hospital we all reside
in. We must refuse to be' doctored with. Better health care, he
says, w ill depend "not on some
new therape utic standard, but on
the level of willingness and competence t o engage in self-care."
Forget those TV co mm erc ial s
which make such a ilments as
stomach upset, stinkfoot, and
dandruff into life-t hr eaten in g
menaces and clean up our
acts by eat ing and drinking the
right things, by not s moking,
a nd by exercising as frequent ly
as possible. Then, perhaps, when
we kick off, we' ll be able to
come up with some final words
worthy of our existence, like
Thoreau's "Moose. .. Indian,"
rather tha n the silent screams of
Karen Ann Quinlan.

Roaring
in the Rain
by Nathaniel Koch
HARD RAIN is an album
whose pretensions outweigh its
significance. Columbia's advertising campaign proclaims "HARD
RAIN is the definitive sound of
Bob Dylan in live performance."
As if that weren't enough, the ad
goes on to frankly state, "Let's
face it, there have been only a
handful of 'li ve' albums in recorded history that have had a
real reason for being. HARD
RAIN is not only one of them, it
could be the best of them."
This is the second live album
Bob Dylan has released in the
last two years. Before The Aood,
recorded on tour with The Band
in '74, was the first and is,
in most respects, the stronger recording . Dylan exudes a high energy throughout the a lbum that
has a positive driving feel to it.
And The Band, who are at their
best live , provide Dylan with the
technically accomplished raw
power that perfectly suits his
material.
In contrast, Dylan's backup
band on HARD RAIN is often
sloppy, out of tune, and poorly

recorded; one has to almost believe intentionally so. What results is an intense , ravaged Rock
'n' Roll that can be alternately
obnoxious or roughly beautiful.
To those who viewed the
HARD RAIN TV special, it was
clear that Dylan had , again, undergone a v isual and musical
metamorphosis. It appears that
three of the songs included on
the album ("Magg ie 's Farm,"
"Shelter From The Storm , " and
"Idiot Wind") were picked from
the special. Like Before The
Aood, all of the nine Dylan
songs on HARD RAIN hav e
been previously recorded.
To these, Dylan brings the
shouting/singing style he perfected on the '74 tour. This lends
itself well to a song like "Idiot
Wind" which gains the power
the studio version, on Blood On
The Tracks, tended to lack . But
the roughness of this approach
works against songs like the 12
year old "One Too Many Mornings," which demand a more sensitive interpretation.
Dylan has seen fit to rearrange
or rewrite much of the material
on HARD RAIN. This may in-

Today's Medicine

Medical Nemesis: The Expro priatiol' of Health . by Ivan Illich
-

Pantheon, 294 pages, $8.95.

[van lIlich pu[ls no punches:
Modern medicine sickens mo re
Iha n il cures. The medical eSlablishmen l must now be regarded
as a major threat to health . The
des tru ctive force of over-ex panded h ealth care is reducing
the quality of our li ves , and it

I " <ISO ,,

(01

Except in the areas of basic
sa nitation and a few relatively

uncomplicated techniques , Illich
believes the notion of medical
progress is mostly wishful thinking. He does not deny that in individual cases very expensive
and speCialized forms of inter vent ion might be successful, It is
simply that the injustice or such
treatment for a privileged minority costs us more socially
than it is worth. And the hoopla
surrounding the publicity given
to inconclusive medical research
and so-ca ll ed " miracle cures "
only clouds the fact that it 'is the
way we live w hi ch is making us
sick.
" i a tro ge ne sis" - the illnes s
w hich is caused by the doctor is the term used repeatedly in
lllich's book to describe the "d isease of medica l progress." Illich
divides iatrogenesis into three
ca legories. Firs t, there is clinical
iatrogell es is. which describes the
undesirab le side effects of appro v ed or mistaken medical
treatme nt. A Congressiona l subco mmittee recently est ima ted
that 2.38 mi lli on needless surgical
0peration s had been performed
i n 1974 , resulting in almos t
12, 000 deaths. Two and a half
billion prescriptions a re filled annually in this country a lone, and
between 50 and 80 percent of
American adu lts swallow a medically prescribed chemical every
24 to 36 hours. One consequence
is that adverse drug reactions are
among the top ten causes of hospitalization. The Department of
Health, Education, and Welfare
says that seven percent of all patients sustain compensable injuries in the hospital, though
most do not rea lize what has
happened to them . University
hospitals have the most scary
statistics: One in five patients
admitted to the average research
hospital picks up a disease there,
and one case in 30 leads to

•

Sickening

death .
Illich's second category, social
iatrogenesis, covers the sickness
which institutionalized medicine
promotes "by increasing stress,
by multiplying disabling dependence, by generalizing new painful needs, by lowering the levels
of tolerance for discomfort or
pain, by reducing the leeway
that people are wont to concede
to an individual when he suffers,
and by abolishing the right to
se lf -care ," The medical establishment encourages people to become "sick" co nsumers - hypochondriacs - through a barrage
of propaganda, rather than concentrating on changing the social co nditions which are the
major contributors to ill-health.
The third and most profoundly
devastating category is cu ltural
iatrogeYlesis, w hich refers to the
psyc ho logical or symbo li c effect
tha t li ving in a medicalized society has on each indi vid u a l' s perception of hi s or h er b ody.
People a re seen as passive patients and tha t is how they see
themselves. You trot in your
body to the clin ic the same way
yo u hand over yo ur TV to the
repai rma n. IIlich bel ieves th is
conception of the self as an object to be fixed will sap the will
of the people to suffer their own
reality by destroying their autonomous ability to cope with

their own bodies and self-healinS!:,
Illich best demonstrates his
ideas when he writes about the
medicalization of pain. He traces
the history of medical attitudes
back to the late Middle Ages,
when people in the West began
to recognize illness and death as
natural things, rather than the
result of magic or divine intervention. To make pain tolerable,
sickness understandable, and
death meaningful, traditional
cultures developed comforting
ritua ls and mythologies .
Bilt the modern medical enterprise is devoted to killing pain,
el imi nating sickness, and abolishing the need to know how to
suffer and die . Pain has been de tached from a ny context that
would give it meaning, and is
turned into a technical prob lem
that must be solved by the medical experts. No longer is pain a
challenge to be faced with digni ty - it is the enemy that must
be destroyed by advanced tech nol ogy. Yesterday's civic leaders
become today's tube feeders, and
they a ll want fast, fast relief.
But the trend in medicine is to
manage only certain aspects of
pain . [n the fog of the loca l anesthetic personal and intimate
questions associated with suffering are lost. What the hell is going on here? - Why me? -

What should I do? - Why does
this evil exist? - Can I take it?
- all questions to be ignored as
the body is numbed and the
knives are sharpened. Illich's
basic point: We can.n ot kill pain
without killing our humanness,
our dignity. As we decrease our
sensitivity to pain we also decrease our ability to experience
the simple joys and pleasures of
life , The alleviation of minor
aches and pains with the little
blue pills In the big blue bottles
leads to an anesth etized society,
one in which people are unfeeling spectators of their own decay.
So what is to be done? Illich
believes we must somehow recover our personal autonomy
from the hospital we all reside
in. We must refuse to be' doctored with. Better health care, he
says, w ill depend "not on some
new therape utic standard, but on
the level of willingness and competence t o engage in self-care."
Forget those TV co mm erc ial s
which make such a ilments as
stomach upset, stinkfoot, and
dandruff into life-t hr eaten in g
menaces and clean up our
acts by eat ing and drinking the
right things, by not s moking,
a nd by exercising as frequent ly
as possible. Then, perhaps, when
we kick off, we' ll be able to
come up with some final words
worthy of our existence, like
Thoreau's "Moose. .. Indian,"
rather tha n the silent screams of
Karen Ann Quinlan.

Roaring
in the Rain
by Nathaniel Koch
HARD RAIN is an album
whose pretensions outweigh its
significance. Columbia's advertising campaign proclaims "HARD
RAIN is the definitive sound of
Bob Dylan in live performance."
As if that weren't enough, the ad
goes on to frankly state, "Let's
face it, there have been only a
handful of 'li ve' albums in recorded history that have had a
real reason for being. HARD
RAIN is not only one of them, it
could be the best of them."
This is the second live album
Bob Dylan has released in the
last two years. Before The Aood,
recorded on tour with The Band
in '74, was the first and is,
in most respects, the stronger recording . Dylan exudes a high energy throughout the a lbum that
has a positive driving feel to it.
And The Band, who are at their
best live , provide Dylan with the
technically accomplished raw
power that perfectly suits his
material.
In contrast, Dylan's backup
band on HARD RAIN is often
sloppy, out of tune, and poorly

recorded; one has to almost believe intentionally so. What results is an intense , ravaged Rock
'n' Roll that can be alternately
obnoxious or roughly beautiful.
To those who viewed the
HARD RAIN TV special, it was
clear that Dylan had , again, undergone a v isual and musical
metamorphosis. It appears that
three of the songs included on
the album ("Magg ie 's Farm,"
"Shelter From The Storm , " and
"Idiot Wind") were picked from
the special. Like Before The
Aood, all of the nine Dylan
songs on HARD RAIN hav e
been previously recorded.
To these, Dylan brings the
shouting/singing style he perfected on the '74 tour. This lends
itself well to a song like "Idiot
Wind" which gains the power
the studio version, on Blood On
The Tracks, tended to lack . But
the roughness of this approach
works against songs like the 12
year old "One Too Many Mornings," which demand a more sensitive interpretation.
Dylan has seen fit to rearrange
or rewrite much of the material
on HARD RAIN. This may in-

W eek,
by Steve Kruse

This is the College Activities Building on the campus of The Evergreen State College. We are a full service bank with
a branch located in this building. Our main branch is in South Sound Center in lacey, about 20 'minutes from Evergreen. We also have branches in West Olympia (ten minutes from school) and Tanglewilde (out past Lacey). You can
save yourself time and trouble by banking right on campus, and to make things even easier, you can do all your banking by mail with us. We are located next to the Deli and across from the Bookstore and Information Center. All our
accounts are FDIC insured.
'

Thanks to a combination of
hard work and dedication by
faculty, Enrollment Services, and
some new recruiting and retention plans, the cloudy enrollment
picture for Evergreen may be
seei ng some light.
The enrollment process for this
fall got off to a shaky start last
spring, when enrollment projections were disturbingly under expectations. Evergreen needed
a bo.ut 1 , 500 new students in
order to reach it s projected en rollment of 2,383 students and
by early June were about 300 students behind -in the expected registration projection. During the
rest of the summer, Evergreen's
staff pu lled toge th er to bring the

latest head count to 2,641 students, which will bring Evergreen
close to last year's enrollment
figures (all specific figures and
breakdowns were not ava ilable
at th is time, but should be compiled within the next few weeks .)
Because the institution's budget
is based on how many students
are enrolled, drastic under-enrollment could cause some serio us budget pr o bl ems (mainl y
monies for salaries and operation
of facilities). As it sta nds now ,
Evergreen should be in better
sha pe th an some had feared.
"We might not come in where
we would like to be . but we're
far ahead of where we thought
we'd be," said Larry Stenberg,
Dean of Enrollment Services.

When the enrollment picture
started to look dim, Dean of Enrollment Services Larry Stenberg
and his staff developed a program to help boost recruitment
of new students and retention of
old ones .
Basically, the plans centered
on gett in g everyonewat Evergreen
involved in the enrollment prob lem. The Academic Deans worked
on broadening the curricul um to
ensure students a place at Evergreen and suit their educational
needs . New s tudents contemplating enrolling at Evergreen were
contacted throughout the su mm er
(by phone, as well as by mail)
and were kept up to date on programs being offered as well as
se rvices availab le to the student.
Facult y were ava il ab le during
most of the summer to help with
academic adviSing a nd answer
questions about their programs .
One of th e biggest factors in
boos ting enrollment came in the
expansion of part - time st udies
options. Twenty-three programs
were designed to handl e part ·
time students, a nd modules were
more than doubled (from 20 to
SOL This gave night students a nd
people in the community more
options for continuing educat ion,
part-time and degree completions
possibi lities as well as broaden -

ing the curriculum. As a result ,
many pr ogra ms and module s
closed up fast.
As of today, the bulk of Ev ergree n's st udents (70 - 80 % ) are
enro ll ed in Coordinilted Stud ies
program s
or group contract s,
but the biggest gain was in the
part - time and modu le stud ies
where they at tracted approximately 550 students.
One of the main facto rs th at
made the enrollment picture for
this fall so unpredictable wa s the
continu ous registration process
used this summer. Instead of
hav ing a couple of cutoff dates
in which new and re turning studen ts had to register by , regi stra ti on was open a ll su mmer
lo ng, to everyone. This caused
procrastination and last minu te
enrollments by students , as we ll
as so m e programs filling up
faster than expected. Many felt
that the continuous registrat ion
process unintenti o na ll y g ives
some st udents a n advan tage ove r
student s o ut side the co mmunity
area (such as out-of-state stu dents) because a faculty signature
is required to registe r in a progra m.
Even though abo ut 1,600 new
students have enro lled this faIL
the enrollment staff will co nt in ue
to co nce ntra te o n att racti ng as

many new st udents as poss ible.
This helps to build up freshman
classes which will u lti mate ly
build up the to tal enrollment for
a four year per iod.
Evergreen has, typically , been
slow in at trac tin g new freshmen
st udents . Most Evergreeners are
transfer st ud ents or co ntinuing
educat io n students.
For th e co ming year , Enrollment Serv ices plans to conce ntrate. on ident ify in g Evergreen to
various audiences througho ut th ~
state and co nvince pa rents , co u~ ­
se lo rs, and high scho ol students
that Evergreen is a goo d pla ce to
start their education ,
It was ge nerally agreeu upon
that enroll me nt servi ces did a
good job a t in c rea s i~ g enrollment
this summer and they hope that
they can do eve n more to swe ll
the rank s of Evergreeners. Bu t
La rry Stenberg sees it as a con·
cerned effort by all. a nd hc'pes
he can keep up the m omentum .
" The Dean s worked hard on

went very smoot hly under pressure co nditi ons a nd the facul ty

by Jill Stewart
A surprised and , in some cases, shocked
audience listened September 15th as President Charles McCann announced his resignation at the conclusion of a speech to
faculty in which he outlined faculty goals
for the year. McCann said he w"s leaving
because he had been with Evergreen for
nine years, and that was "long enough for
anyone,"
H is resignation will take effect in June
of 1977.
Fans and critics alike seem to agree that
McCann made a w ise decision in stepping
down at this time . Faculty member Rich ard Jones said, "I urged him strongly, and
I think many others on the faculty urged
him strongly, last spring, to think of re-

signing. I think everyone had sensed that
the time had come for a change in leadership and I think Charlie himself came to
that conclusion."
Crit ics of McCann have maintain ed
that he had been a poor manager and
leader by avoiding decisio n-making and
ruling with a too-light hand.
McCann admitted that he has made relatively few decision s in his years here,
saying , "I just don't work that way." He
said that bud ge t decisions seldom need to
be o verridden because "a lot of our prioriti es aro und here seem to be shared." McCann sa id he was "lucky to find enough
people who shared a vision of the college
close eno ugh to mine that our worlds
overl apped. "
Richa rd Jones would like to see a new
president who can come in and guide the
fa cul ty toward setting up "standards" im proved studen t and faculty portfo lios,
grea ter scholarship in faculty se minars,
and more detailed a nd accurate program
hi sto ri es. He sa id, "I don 't think that 's go ing to happe n un less a new president
comes in and says, 'Now yo u do it'."
Faculty member Tom Ra iney disagrees,
Rainey expressed concern with a feeling
among the fa culty that what they need is
a good manage r. "Many, man y times
their judgment of Charlie has been , 'Well ,
he's just not managing us well enough.'
Well helL we should be able to manage
ourse lv es . . . It seems to me that a lot of
the criticism of Charlie as being a poor
manager is just a monstrous escape from
freedom a nd responsibili ty on the part of
the faculty. " But Rainey added that he felt
it was time for McCann to move on .
"Charlie has been th'e appropriate presi·
dent for the heroic stage of Evergreen, I
think we've moved beyond that stage.
The heroic stage I would define as that
stage in which we thought all things were
possible."
How does Charles McCann fee l about
all that he has accomplished? "If, back in
August 1968, I had sketched out in words
that would encompass all the details and

all the achievements of Evergreen today,
I'd have really thought I was fantasizing,"
he said. "We've come farther along in the
, , . six years of our operation than I
would have thought reasonably possible, "
McCa nn exp ressed sat isfaction with the
main out line of the Long Range Curriculum plan. He said the two-year co ntinu ing programs "introduce so me elements of
stabi lity so students and facu lt y can look
a head . . . and yet retain a good portion
of time a nd energy fo r new ideas and
co mbina tio ns."
He cited the lack of freshmen entering
Evergree n directl y from high sc hool as
o ne of Evergreen's most serious prob lems,
ca uti oning that although he hoped to see
the number of fres hm en jump from the
prese nt seve n percen t to 15 o r 25 percent ,
he "wouldn 't wa nt hal f th e peop le aro und
here wearing beanies, " McCann also said
that any school "out in fr o nt" like Ever green wou ld probably be reorga ni zed over
the years, but that he hoped Evergreen
never suffered from what he called "hardening of the categories."
Richard Jones singled out Evergreen 's
emphasis on coope rative , rather than co mpet it ive, learning as Evergreen 's single
most important accomplishment in , .x
yea rs. He said he felt that Evergreen had
not "go t all the way there yet ," but that it
was a unique accomplishment among co lleges. " I don't know whether that was
what Charlie had in mind for the place,
but that 's what we' ve got," Jones said .
With the search for a new president
abou t to formally begin , and rumors of
the possibility that Evans is consideri ng
the job, the question arises - what kind
of person will be good for Evergreen?
Tom Rainey is particularly concerned
that Evergreen will "opt for what they
co nsider to be a good manager and ignore
the fact that that particular leader ... has
no intellectual standards whatsoever, and
has no concept of academic excellence,"
He expressed "fear " that if Evans were appointed he would be more concerned with
"administering the faculty" than with con -

Richar'd fOlies
su iti ng wi th them and being a part of
them . Rainey added that he had no rt'al
basis for hi s feelings but was cuncerned
with the "rush towards Evans ."
However, Richard Jon es said it was "no
secret" th a t if Evans were selected "both
McCann and prob ablv a majority llf th~
fa cult y wou ld just jump for joy. ,. Jones
said he felt it wot:ld be like "a git! trom
heaven. "
McCann prefe rred to remdin ,omew ha t
nonco mmittal on the iss ue, sayi ng o nly
that he thoug ht Evans ' appointment would
be "exciting,"
Where do ex -coll ege presidents go and
what do they d o with their li ves? McCann
is not quite sure. He may return to leach ing. He imp li ed as much when he sa id of
Evergreen, "One of m y secret agendas in
sta rtin g a college would be to crea te the
kind of place I'd give my rig ht arm tu
teach at. "
And he is more th a n wekum~ as Fa l a,
Jones and Rainey are concerned. Jone~
said , ''I'm proposing fo r the cur ri culum
next yea r that we repeat Dreal1l s and Pn
etry . . . I haven' t told thi s to Cha rlie yet,
bu t I'm going to ask him to join me .
I've seen him in se minars, I' ve heard I l'( '
tures that he's given , and I ju st know he',
one hell of a good teacher ."
