The results at Evergreen have . been far
greater than nine years at some other.

What part have you enjoyed the
most?
It's hard to put this without sounding corny . I've really enjoyed being in
the position to talk about what Evergreen students and faculty accomplish . .
Do you plan to hang around to make
sure things go all right?
I don't plan beyond June to, as you
put it, hang around .
Will there be shake-up in the administration?
That's entirely up to the new president .
Do you ever plan to write anything
about Evergreen for publication 7
I have written something about Evergreen which will be published this
spring. It's not about all of Evergreen,

by Matt Groening
The fullowing remarks are excerpted
from interviews with President Charles
McCann o n January 4th and 25th.
College presidents in the last decade
have 'been dropping like flies, but you
have lasted nine years, so whatever
you do now must seem easier. What
are you going to do 7
I will work at the Yale School for '
Organization and Management for two
years, then come back here as a member of the faculty . I'd like to find out
more about management, to study in
retrospect the kind of management I've
practiced ... That practice is to treat
the thing that the organization is built
to serve like a work of art.
Is this going to relate to your teaching when you get back 7
I certainly hope so . All my life I've
loved literature so I expect to be doing
some of that. I enjoy making students'
lives miserable over writing .. . I really
want to have the interdisciplinary capacity that the best of our faculty have.
Are you going to take a vacation7
Oh , the usual , a month or so, then
starti ng hitting the books .
There's been some criticism of your
sabbatical: full salary the first year and
half salary the second year. Do you
think that criticism is justified?
No t in my view. There is some confusion ove r my leave. First, some think
the leave is all part of the new appoint-

nor about all of my experience here.
It's a chapter in a book about administration without departments, in which
the Evergreen experience, and that of
Santa Cruz, Green Bay, and Hampshire,
are compared to a place or two in Great
Britain. The Evergreen chapter is highly focused, but it does cover a big hunk
of what we've accomplished here, a lot
of the problems we face, and some of
the ones we still may face .
Looking back, is there anything you
would have done differently7
It sounds arrogant to say, but no.
That's the way I'd answer.
Not a single thing... Given the
same situations, you're likely to make
the same mistakes the first time through.
Are there any big changes in the
months before you leave the presldency7
I don't contemplate any.
You won't advocate statehood for
Puerto Rico at the last moment 7
I Laughs)
00 you have any long-range advice
for Evergreen? I realize, by the way,
that this is a little premature to be asking for parting remarks.
I suppose I ought to think about that
for a long time. 'I'd say maybe two
things : One is to keep hanging in there
to be the best publicly-supported undergraduate college, and the second is
to hang in there with a great tolerance
Evergreeners have shown for ambiguity .

his leave is largest and longest, according
to a Jan. 20 article in the Seattle PoI. Dr.
Emerson Shuck of ' Eastern Washington
State College was recently given a leave at
$40,000, his full salary, for nine months
ending last December. He was granted the
money in a closed meeting of their board
of trustees, and is to return to the college
to teach.
Centr ..: 'Nashington State College President James Brooks has been granted a
year's leave at three-fourths his $45,752
. salary when he leay~ the presidency in
1978. He, too, will return to teach.
Former President Charles Flora of Western Washington State College was given a
leave at three-quarters of his salary, which
came to $30,492, when he left. He is now
teaching biology there.
Ed Kormondy, Vice President and Provost at Evergreen, said, "I've been associated with three institutions in which the
president had resigned or retired after an
appropriate time, and in all the institutions
the president gets terminal leave." He said
that presidents get "typically a year, and
not un typically at full salary." Kormondy
said he'd known institutions that gave two
full years of leave .
.
Some faculty are sympathetic toward
McCann's position. They feel he probably
deserves it, and that it is worth the money
to be sure that the college doesn't lose him
and he comes back to teach .
But Beug and the faculty union both
suggest that McCann give up the two year
leave and take instead a one year leave at
top faculty salary .

The Evergreen State College

February 3, 1977

Evergreen On The Grill
by Stan Shore
Evergreen's Board of Trustees were
taken to task last night, February 2, at a
special state legislative hearing called to
investigate the selection of former Governor Dan Eva,ns and the two-year "terminal leave" granted to President Charles
McCann.
At the three-and-a-half hour evening
session, held in a crowded Senate hearing
room, the House and Senate Higher Education Committees questioned trustees,
administrators , faculty and students about
th e dual controversies. Although the two
committees could take no direct action
and reached no specific conclusions, the
critical co mments of the legislato rs indicated that Evergreen 's next budget may
come under close scrutiny later.
The purpose of the hearing , chaired by
Senator Gordon Sandison , w as to determine if any state laws - including Affirmative Action guidelines - had been
violated in the hiring of Evans to serve as
Evergreen's president starting in June 1977.
Also of interest was McCann's two-year
leave, which has been ' debated on campus
in recent weeks .
Senator A.L. Rasmussen , for one, did
not think the two events were unrelated .
"You [the trustees} were negotiating
with Evans, but it was first necessary · to
remove Dr.' McCann ... and that's why
he received a two-year sabbatical," Rasmussen postulated early in the hearing.
His accusation was repeatedly denied.
The trustees were also accused of :
- tailoring the presidential job requirements to fit Evans.
- not conducting a thorough search.
- having decided on Evans before calling the search committee.
- paying McCann an excessively large
leave.
None of these charges were proved, but
the legislators seemed unconvinced by the
explanations.
EVANS AND AFFIRMATIVE ACTION
Evergreen Affirmative Action Officer
Rindetta Jones, a member of the presidential search committee, defended the process used to select Evans. "It is my professional opinion, " she stated, "that the Af-

Trustee Herb Hadley testifies before the Joint Committee o n Higher Education last night.

firmative Action guidelines were followed ."
Assistant Attorney General Richard Montecu cco confirmed the legality of the hiring
procedure .
Jones went on to say that Evergreen is
"very racist and sexist," and as a result ,
she would not have been in favor of' a
minority or woman taking over the presidential post.
" I would not put the blondest white
woman, the whitest fat woman , a black,
Asian, red or yellow person in [the presidency 1. . . I would not have voted for
my own mother," she stated.
It was also disclosed for the first time
that Georgia legislator Julian Bond and
University of Maryland Provost Robert
Corrigan had both been discussed briefly
by the presidential search committee.
Rasmussen continually questioned the
propriety of Evergreen trustees discussing
the presidency with Evans - implying that
the search committee was a front for a decision that had already been made.

Trustee Hal Halvorson denied the charge
angrily, while others in the audience
laughed at Rasmussen's doggedness.
"At Evergreen people can see through
Mickey Mouse committees,"Halvorson explained. "And it was nobody's intent to
create a Mickey Mouse committee. If the
governor was available we would not
have formed the selection committee ."
Trustee T o m Dixon was equally outspoken in defense of the board's action:
" It would have been a sham and a shame
to interview 3,000 candidates and then go
ahead and do what you're going to do .. .
We didn't want a sham committee." He
reiterated that when the committee was
formed on December 8, Evans was unavailable and the trustees fully expected a
real search to begin. Only on December
20 did the trustees learn that Evans was
definitely interested in the presidency.
Then, at its first and only meeting, the 15member search committee unanimously
chose Evans.

SA VE $100,000
Later McCann defended his tw o-yea r
termination leave . the first year of whi ch
he will be paid hi s full presidential salary ,
the second year half tha t much , if he returns to Evergreen . He poi nted out that
only two other states have colleges where
the presidents serve a set ter m, s im ilar to
Evergreen's set term of six yea rs. After
. two such term s a n Eve rgreen pres ident
. must step dow n.
In Minneso ta a nd New York , acco rding
to McC an n, the presidents au to mati ca ll v
receive di stingu ished serv ice professo rsh ip s
w ith tenu re. secreta ri al help . a special
travel all owance, a nd sa lary " no less tha n
80 % of their pres ident ial sa larv." When
McCann re turns fro m his leave . he wi ll
join the fa cul ty a t regular sala ry. w hich is
abo ut 60 % of his prese nt pay.
" Th e am ount of money saved ." McCann
sta ted , refer ri ng to the o ther systems. "is
5100,000 to $150, 000 over the 14 years I
cou ld serve as a fac ult y member
I
think th e tru stees made a good ba rgain. '
Fac ulty member T om Rainey. speaking
for the faculty uni on , wa s less sati sfie d
with the leave.
"I am very much concerned - I would
say almost ou traged - w ith the decisio n
of the board relative to President \1c·
Cann, " he stated .
He pointed out that the funds for o ther
fac ult y leaves is very lim ited . McCa nn 's
lea ve equals the cost of eleven fa cult v
leaves, and under normal leave proce·
dures , according to Rain ey. a iacu lt y
member is statistically allowed o ne leave
every 33 years.
Student Colleen Hunt , wh o was on the
search committee and voted for Evans.
also criticized the selection process a nd
McCa nn' s leave .
Near the end of the hearing. after ha v ing suggested that Evans resign the presidency ' Rasmussen had another idea . Spea king to Faculty Member Willi Unsoeld . wh o
had strongly defended the college. Rasmussen said that Evergreen 's buildings
would make a good Department of Natural Resources .
Unsoeld paused a moment then an swered with grim humor that he preferre d
"a home for wayward girls .

Frozen Hiring On a Stick
I n the last few weeks, as Dixy Lee
Ray moved into the governor's office, the
heavy hand of the state h'as made itself
felt around campus, on issues from membership on the Board of Trustees to the
quality of faculty being hired .
Ray , as one of her first actions after
taking office in January, asked the State
Senate to not approve 124 appointments
still pending fro m the administration of
fo rmer Governor Dan Eva ns . This move
was vi rtually unprecedented in the state ;
when Evans took office he sto pped just
two appointees fro m being approved .
T he result : a t Evergreen, Trustee Ray
Meredith , who was a pPOinted last spring,
1976, but never officially confirmed by
the Sena te, had to step down . Across the
state, executive committees - including
the Public Disclosure Com mission - were
left una ble to function due to a lack of
quorum.
Ray's legislative liaison, Joe Zaspel, also
indicated that it was "likely" that T om
Dixon , the only black memb!!r ' of the
board, would be replaced when his term
expires at the end of February. The college has received no word on who might
be nominated to replace either Meredith
or Dixon .
The normal term fo r a trustee is six
years . Meredith served only nine m onths

and Dixon - who was appointed to fill
out Al Saunders' term in 1973 - has
served only four years.
In March 1978 Janet Tourtellotte Holmes'
term on the five-member board will expire, and if she is replaced the new gover-

work-study are not affected by the o rder,
according to Kay Atwood , Director of Financial Aid .
" It does have a dramatic effect, a really
negative effect on the hiring of facult y
members fo r next fall, " said Dean Will

"Student funds and
state work-study
are not affected
nor's 'appointees will be in control.
In"another surprise move, Ray ordered
an immediate freeze on all state hiring un til July 1977. The executive order applies
to both new positions and vacancies which
occur before July. Also, travel is to be se verely curtailed, with convention-going
specifically forbidden by the January 27
o rder.

Humphreys . The traditional date to res ign
from a posi tion a t a college, according to
Humphreys, is April 15, w hile th e tradi tional date to no tify someone without a
job is June 1. The deans are now in the
process of mailing out no tices that the
college is in the midst of a hiring freeze .
Full regulations for state colleges will
no t be available for another week or two ,
according to Business Manager Ken Wink-

ley . At that time Evergreen will know if
it ca n hire adjunct faculty to teach mod ules o r replace faculty on leave . Winkley
also warned that the guidelines spelled o ut
in the executive order may be substant i ·
ally modified for higher educati o n institu ·
ti o ns .
"I think Evergreen will co ntinue to
function," stated Rita Cooper, Direct or o f
Personnel, optimisticall y. " Everyo ne is
concerned that student -related -projects
like registration are done - we' ll just a ll
pit ch in to ge t them done. "
The Perso nnel Off ice is cont inu ing to
advertise , interv iew . and test fo r jo b open ·
ings , as if the freeze had not happe nerl . on
the assumpt ion that staff w ill be hired at ·
Ler June 30, w ith th e start of th e new bi ·
enn ium. There a re now three exempt sta tt
vacancies a nd five c1assi'fied s taff open ings .
" We average a bo ut two new o penings a
month ." Cooper sa id , ad ding th at Ra y
could co ntinue the hiring freeze for fo u r
yea rs if she wa nted, bu t it did not seem
li kely .
O ne Evergree n stu de nt , always on the
watch for silver linings, stated, "The best
faculty members may not come here be cause of the hi ring freeze, but at least we
know the Uni ve rsity of Washington isn' t
goi ng to get them ."

To the Ed itor:
RE : January 27, 1977 Stuffed
Albino Squirrel Editorial Column
In the past month , there has
been an intensive mobilization of
women in this community around the issues of rape and the
ri ght to women-only space (conce rt s, etc.). Some of the anger
a nd action has been reflected in
leiters and articles in the CPJ. I
am pleased to see these issues in
the heads of TESC people. How ever, the CPJ editor's response .
disguised in his " Stuffed Albino
Squirrels For Women Only" does
not add to this discussion. It is
definitely not funny . He seems
nervous and embarrassed by our
anger. our decisions to claim
space and fight back when neces sary.
Matt Groening has invoked an
old myth that has often been

used to sedate women - that
when we are angry, we are acting irrationally. The heroine in
his "joke" prepares for her angry
role "by running around in the
rain and yelling." We do not
need any such preparation; our
lives have been our rehearsals.
There is a lot that is hu~orous
- good material for your squirrel jokes, including Shakespeare.
But not women's struggles.

To the Editor:

To the Editor:

The Journal is good in what it
has become - a "feature sheet"
-- and no longer a newspaper
per se.
Happily. the Journal lies somewhere between other feature
sheets such as the authoritatively
hip Rolling Stone and the Sunday supplement Parade with its
begonia-growing features.
The new masthead is great,
and suits the tone of the paper.
Page layout and story presentation is also well-balanced ...
which unfortunately is not true
of much of the photography or
writing .
You 're writing for yourselves
and not the bulk of your readers.
The Journal has directed itself
at a special interest audience that
enjoys reading journalism in the
"new" genre and viewing perspective -control l infrared / Avedonian
photography.
But you are creat ing controversy - which is 40 % of the
game of new journalism (the
other 60 % involves competent
writing and not alienating your
readers) .
The paper's readership includes
folks who would like to see photos of people rappelling down
the clock tower or a feature on
the chu nks of art appearing in
"A" dorm.
The Journal is not an independent special interest concern - it
is funded partially through S&A

Students at Evergreen are facing a dilemma. The problem concerns an increase in student utilization of Health Services and a
cutback in funding Health Services next year. This cutback will
seriously curtail many of the
services and hours of operation
that Health Services now offers.
With medical costs for private
physicians going sky-high Evergreen students will be losing out
on one of the most important assets this college has.
As many of you already know
there are some new faces at
Health Services, and the students
should take an active role in
working with the staff at Health
Services to insure that it meets
these needs. What can we do,
you ask? In February we hope .to
bring Evergreen students an.d
Heal th Services staff together to
discuss how this service can best
be organized. For example, should
the docto r and patient schedule
longer appointments to discuss
thoroughly the patient's problem
and personal health care? Or
should there be shorter appointments allOWing for a larger number of patients to be seen and in
addition offer group workshops
in health care? Also, we need to
insure that Health Services obtains sufficient funding so that
they can adequately handle the
demand. These ideas, and your
questions and ideas, need to be

brought together and worked on.
Health Services is for your benefit entirely, and its loss or reduction in efficiency may be felt
by you when you most need
them .
I won't be here next year to
follow up on this, but those of
you who have used Health Services and who are concerned with
insuring that there will be a place
where your health needs can be
met , need to get together now.
Talk it over with your friends,
watch the CPJ, and listen to
KAOS-FM for meeting times
and places. Health care is one
area you can't afford to sell yourself short on. Health Services is
located in Sem. 2129, phone 8666200.

Third World
Token Photos
To the Editor:
An open letter to Larry Stenberg, Dean of Enrollment Services .
I have just seen the square
brown booklet 10nce over lightly J put out by you (TESC) to be
used for recruitment purposes. It
hurts very much to see TESC use
such "slick" PR tactics and lower
their principles to alleviate underenrollment and fabricate higher
statistics of Third World students
on campus. What has happened
to TESC's integrity and philosophy?
The false impression that the
photographs of Third World
people give is indicative of the
desperation TESC faces in recruitment. Many are photos of
the Third World Bicentennial
Forum, a specific event bringing
Third World folks together from
all over the West Coast. These
photos are dated and do not represent TESC. You have used
photos of people that are no
longer connected with TESC and

photos of people that are no
longer here. I am slife they would
not consent to hav~eir image
portrayed to mask the covert
racism, masquerading as liberalism common to this institution.
By the way, HAS their written
permission been given? Or are
they solely the property ofTESC,
as you might say the photos are,
to be used when it benefits you?
I am angered at the "select"
photos of the faculty and what is
emphasized about them. Does
the amount of scholarly degrees
make them sensitive to students'
needs and dedicated to follow
through on servicing those needs?
The token photos of Third World
faculty say nothing about awareness of their own ethnicity and I
or ability and willingness to work
with us at that level of consciousness, or whether they understand
the concepts of Third World .
Under student life no student
organizations are mentioned, not
even the Women's Center, Women's Clinic or Third World Coalition. Surely mention of these
organizations would be an asset
in recruiting wormen and minorities.
How can you state an Affirmative Action /E OP policy when
just the fact that class action/
discrimination suits have been
filed against TESC; doesn't that
indicate otherwise?
This has been stated before but
again I must say that the continued usage of the term non-white
is detrimental to a positive self /
collective image of Third World
people in this country. The usage
of non anybody has a divisive
incriminating connotation.
TESC's best PR comes from
students themselves , so why
don't you spend time listening to
what we have to say and your
money on the services we need
instead of propaganda like this?
This pamphlet only perpetuates
the above-mentioned problems;
when your aim is to quantity
and not quality you may get students and meet your quotas, but
how many do you lose along the
way?
Sincerely,
April West

In the past five years there has
been only one fu ll -time, yearlong program at TESC dealing
speCifically with children . As part
of our contracts this quarter we
are working together on a study
aimed at documenting the ongoing need for the direction of
more faculty resources to group
contracts in child-related studies.
The following letter and questions were sent to all faculty
members. A second que s tion naire, for studehts, accompanies
this letter. !See page 5 for the
'luestionnaire. J If you have an
interest in child studies, please
return the student questionnaire
to us at the Day Care Off iCy
30SC CAB.
Before long we will schedule a
planning meeting of all interested
students and faculty to discuss
our mutual needs for the coming
academic year. All students who
respond to the survey will be
contacted by us before the planning meeting.
Dear Faculty Member,
In the course of pursuing our
educational goals, we have encountered great difficulty finding
sponsors for group programs and
individual contracts for childrelated studies.
We define child-related studies
as a broad spectrum of inquiry
involving the relationship of children to the arts, sciences, music,
education, philosophy, history,
psychology, politics, administration, etc. Our intent is to identify and isolate any faculty or
students whose interests may directly or indirectly involve the
study of children.
,
We are preparing a study of
the inadequacy of faculty resources for filling the needs of
students in child-related studies.
The following survey will give us
some specific information as to
the numbers of students who are
involved in individual contracts
in the area of child-related studies.
We would appreciate your filling out the enclosed questionnaire ...
Faculty Questionnaire : Are
you currently sponsoring an individual contract concerned with
children? If so, how many?
Briefly list the titles of the contracts and describe their purposes. Would you and the stu dent be willing to discuss the
contract objectives with us 7 Are
you aware of any student in-

A Letter
to Men
To the Editor :
It is discouraging. Letters, articles, arguments, hatred, anger
and, of course, fear. And rape
becomes another daily word, just
like Vietnam used to occupy our
lives. In time , they became routine - incredible historical facts
surrounding our lives. Rape occurs down the street from us in
this "pastoral woodland" and
people go about their business,
not totally indifferent, but detached, thankful that it happened
down the street and not in their
'o wn homes. Unless, of course,
you're a woman.
For women, the possibility of
rape necessitates that some time
must be spent going to self-defense workshops, or discussing
whether to "submit or fight."
There is talk abou t getting guns
- which is incredible considering
the fact that without fear of rape,
these same women would not
want guns but rather gun control. Civilized women who want
no part of a violent world are
forced to consider violence in order to survive. It is demoraliZing,
for them and the rest of us, regardless of gender.
I am a man and I have written
this letter primarily for men to
read (however, women are welcome to read this letter). I would
like men to realize that every time
a woman gets raped, everyone,
men and women alike, gets
wounded. Women get frightened
, - men receive more hatred and
become less understood. Men
need to realize that rape is an insult to all life, and that there is
no room for it in our li"es. Men,
in addition to women, must begin to accept responsibility for
rapes that they had no part of.
Rather than encouraging women
to defend themselves while sitting
back, men must deal with rape
and rape prevention actively.
I encourage all men to extend
themselves to all women by offering to be on call when a woman needs to be walked or driven
home. Anywhere, for that matter. I encourage all men to help
women install floodlights on all
dark or remote properties in the
community where rapists can

lurk, such as on Overhulse Road,
Mix Road, 17th Avenue, and so
forth. I encourage all men with
cars to go out of their way to
give women who they know
rides, even if you aren't going
anywhere at the time, rather than
allowing a woman to hitchhike
anywhere. I hope that streets can
rally together, setting up local
telephone trees in the event of
hearing suspicious noises, or in
the event of a rape, or just in the
event of someone feeling frightened by being alone. I would
hope that communities could embrace themselves, making human
connections and gaining a reputation for not tolerating rape.
In an era of polarization and
sexual conflict, it could only help
matters if men showed women
that they, too, abhor rape, abhor
indifference, and take an active
role in defending ourselves against such insanity as rape . I am
convinced that women can defend themselves without the help
of men, but it is a sorry state of
affairs when people allow each
other to believe that a problem
like rape is a women's issue rather
than everybody's sadness, loss
and defilement. This is no hazy,
philosophical consideration.
Make an effort in the community
you live in. Don't allow terror in
women's eyes turn into hatred
for all men because of your own
indifference or negligible concern.
If men have learned anything
from the Women's Movement,

they had better start proving it
by' acting, not out of noblesse oblige chivalry but sincere conviction. Better yet, ask women what
they need from you in this matter.
With every rape , the entire
world gets defiled. Defilement
can only go on for so long until
nothing is left.

Leafy
To the Editor:
The leaf on Red Square
I watched a leaf come floating
down
And settle gently on the ground.
Spoke its wonder in a crackly
sound,
Then sped away with twists and
bends;
The little leaf had found some
friends
In a pile of drifted leaves.
Leaves deep and thick and
crackly to touch,
Bright and dry with a pungent
scent;
Nostalgia arose, became too
much
With childish glee I skipped and
went
Through the leaves
Like a breeze.

A treasure there of ruby and gold
Topaz and amber , a sight to behold ,
Then I heard a sound and my
blood ran cold.
A grinding, whistling yellow
beast
Straight from Mordor in the East
Coughing and gorging as it came
Consuming riches was its game.
Tattering and shredding, blowing
around
The treasure lying on the ground.
I choked a sob and turned away
Living in memory of another day
When an innocent child with hair
of brown
SkiptJed happily. scattering
leaves around.

Sexist
Squirrels
To the Ed itor:
RE : January 27, 1977 Stuffed
Albino Squirrel Editorial Column
In the past month , there has
been an intensive mobilization of
women in this community around the issues of rape and the
ri ght to women-only space (conce rt s, etc.). Some of the anger
a nd action has been reflected in
leiters and articles in the CPJ. I
am pleased to see these issues in
the heads of TESC people. How ever, the CPJ editor's response .
disguised in his " Stuffed Albino
Squirrels For Women Only" does
not add to this discussion. It is
definitely not funny . He seems
nervous and embarrassed by our
anger. our decisions to claim
space and fight back when neces sary.
Matt Groening has invoked an
old myth that has often been

used to sedate women - that
when we are angry, we are acting irrationally. The heroine in
his "joke" prepares for her angry
role "by running around in the
rain and yelling." We do not
need any such preparation; our
lives have been our rehearsals.
There is a lot that is hu~orous
- good material for your squirrel jokes, including Shakespeare.
But not women's struggles.

To the Editor:

To the Editor:

The Journal is good in what it
has become - a "feature sheet"
-- and no longer a newspaper
per se.
Happily. the Journal lies somewhere between other feature
sheets such as the authoritatively
hip Rolling Stone and the Sunday supplement Parade with its
begonia-growing features.
The new masthead is great,
and suits the tone of the paper.
Page layout and story presentation is also well-balanced ...
which unfortunately is not true
of much of the photography or
writing .
You 're writing for yourselves
and not the bulk of your readers.
The Journal has directed itself
at a special interest audience that
enjoys reading journalism in the
"new" genre and viewing perspective -control l infrared / Avedonian
photography.
But you are creat ing controversy - which is 40 % of the
game of new journalism (the
other 60 % involves competent
writing and not alienating your
readers) .
The paper's readership includes
folks who would like to see photos of people rappelling down
the clock tower or a feature on
the chu nks of art appearing in
"A" dorm.
The Journal is not an independent special interest concern - it
is funded partially through S&A

Students at Evergreen are facing a dilemma. The problem concerns an increase in student utilization of Health Services and a
cutback in funding Health Services next year. This cutback will
seriously curtail many of the
services and hours of operation
that Health Services now offers.
With medical costs for private
physicians going sky-high Evergreen students will be losing out
on one of the most important assets this college has.
As many of you already know
there are some new faces at
Health Services, and the students
should take an active role in
working with the staff at Health
Services to insure that it meets
these needs. What can we do,
you ask? In February we hope .to
bring Evergreen students an.d
Heal th Services staff together to
discuss how this service can best
be organized. For example, should
the docto r and patient schedule
longer appointments to discuss
thoroughly the patient's problem
and personal health care? Or
should there be shorter appointments allOWing for a larger number of patients to be seen and in
addition offer group workshops
in health care? Also, we need to
insure that Health Services obtains sufficient funding so that
they can adequately handle the
demand. These ideas, and your
questions and ideas, need to be

brought together and worked on.
Health Services is for your benefit entirely, and its loss or reduction in efficiency may be felt
by you when you most need
them .
I won't be here next year to
follow up on this, but those of
you who have used Health Services and who are concerned with
insuring that there will be a place
where your health needs can be
met , need to get together now.
Talk it over with your friends,
watch the CPJ, and listen to
KAOS-FM for meeting times
and places. Health care is one
area you can't afford to sell yourself short on. Health Services is
located in Sem. 2129, phone 8666200.

Bennett, Evans, and Cascadia
by Brad Pokorny
"Eisenhower and Nixon
and their cabinets had determined
in their minds that the way to
solve the Indian problem was to
violate all moral and legal rights
and laws that were there to protect the Indian' people,." said Ramona Bennett, speaking in the
library lobby last Thursday afternoon, January 27.
The Puyallup tribal chairwoman spoke before an audience of
Evergreeners and visitors, sponsored by the Native American
Students Association during Evergreen's Indian Awareness Week
celebration held last week .
Bennett gestured little as she
spoke about the Puyallup tribe's
five-year fight to gain ownership
of the Cascadia Juvenile Diagnostic Center in Tacoma, her
clear voice remaining calm and
unemotional. The Puyallup tribe
"evicted" the state from the fivestory hospital last October, and
occupied it for over a week while
negotiating with the federal government for the return of the
property.
Bennett told how Ihe tribal
council met in the auditorium of
the Cascadia center on the fifth
floor on Saturday evening, October 23, 1976, and decided to go
downstairs and serve an eviction
notice. The hospital staff reacted
like "a herd of wild Indians had
just threatened them" - according to Bennett, calling the Tacoma police and panicking even
though the Indians were unarmed
and most of the notices were
served by women.
The Cascadia center, formerly
Cushman Hospital, was built on '
Indian land in the 1930's. by the
federal government with the provision that it "could never be
used for anything but Indian
health purposes." In 1959, the
federal government sold the facilities to the state of Washington,
saying that the Indians no longer
had a health care problem . Yet
at the time one Indian tribe less
than 20 miles from Cascadia had
the highest infant mortality rate
in the country, Bennett said.

What's the scoop? The place

the Beaux Arts Ball. Sparks, a
faculty member in the Foundations of Visual Arts, the program
that is sponsoring the gala masquerade ball, says, "This is a

a good party. "

The hottest item at the February 2 Sounding Board meeting
was the petition Jim Sheet presented protesting the conversion
of some modular housing units
(the "mods") into a day care center for faculty and staff children.
Maureen Karras, a staff member who is on the advisory com mittee studying the problem ,
stated that no decision had been
made pending a feasibility study
which would be completed near
the end of March. But, she admitted, the mods were under
consideration.
"Mods were built for students
- I think it's ridiculous to come
in and take it for use by the
staff," one student commented.
"Is nothing sacred for students?
It's student housing I It's ours!"
Administrative Vice President
Dean Clabaugh clarified the situation, explaining that no student
fees went into housing. "T he
money to build the mods was
borrowed from what is now
Rainier Bank, " he said, "and it is
being paid back out of rents."
He also pointed out tha t although the mods have been particularly popular this academic
year, th ey average a 30% vacancy rate.
He further noted that there are

legal restrictions in using either
the academic buildings or student-funded facilities including
the student day care center.
One student compared the situation to imperialism in Africa,
where people carne in and took
over land without asking the occupants what they wished.
Walker Allen took a more
reasoned view. "The purpose of
day care," he stated, "is to be
able to attract and keep good
staff members, and in the long
run that is what benefits students
the most. "
The discussion was tabled with
a vote to request the adviSOry
committee to call a hearing to
discuss the matter at greater
length .
The proposal to switch from
four academic quarters to "early
semesters" received generally favorable support from the Sounding Board. The next step, it was
decided , will be to circulate a
poll of some sort to faculty, staff
and students.
Also discussed at the meeting
was the perennial question of the
women's sauna size. It is approximately one-third as large as the
men's and often crowded, according to Rick Tessandore.

Evergreen Warmth
In the wake of the coldest winter in memory east of the Rockies, and a natural gas shortage as
a result, President Jimmy Carter
asked people all over the country
to turn their thermostats down
to 65 degrees. Yet Evergreen which uses natural gas - has not
done so.
"Sixty-five degrees is so uncomfortable," Facilities Director
Robert Strecker explained. "The
secretaries and people who are
typing just aren' t as efficient. "
Strecker explained that even
though the school had not turned
down the thermostats, it was still
not wasting energy. The key to
this paradox is the special heaters

She termed the sale of the hospital illegal, part of "a termination policy by the government"
during the Eisenhower administration. "It was clearly geared to
a genocide of Indian people and
Indian cultures," she said.
"We enter in negotiations with
some honor and some honesty,"
Bennett continued . "The white
government relies on written
words. You know as soon as yiju
start having to write things down
that something is wrong, that
you are dealing with people who
don't have honor. Invariably the
governmental system violates its
own laws."
EV ANS AND CASCADIA
According to Bennett, attempts
were made to get the state to recognize that its possession of Cascadia was illegal. The state attorneys readily admitted this
fact, but legislators would not
take action because they felt their
constituencies would not favor
pro-Indian action.
"I know that [Governor Dan J
Evans was told repeatedly that
the state was trespassing on that
property," she said. "But he
chose to disregard the law. And
there were people on the state
staff who were telling him that
the state has no right there ...
Absolutely not caring and not
acting ."
When the Puyallups realized
the state would not listen, they
went to the federal government.
"The feds looked over all our

She explained that Indians plan
to transform Cascadia into a Native American community health
center, because communal living
and taking care of each other
have always been integral parts
of Indian culture.
"When we talk about Cushman ," Bennett explained, "We're
not talking about a five-story
building, we're talking about the
very basis of our culture, a place
to get well, a place to really find
ourselves. To establish the basis
of community protection that is
our heritage ."

Bennett said tha t one of their
chief concerns was the manner of
dealing with juveniles that Cascadia stood for. "It's not a diagnostic cente"," she said. " You
can't know someone's mental

wild mouse in a glass aquarium,
and when it runs about, you say

cells found at Cascadia, "with
only one little hole in the floor
to pee through and that's all."
Bennett said. "I can' t understand
why the people of this state have
allowed a place like Cascadia to
exist."

Bennett, Evans, and Cascadia
by Brad Pokorny
"Eisenhower and Nixon
and their cabinets had determined
in their minds that the way to
solve the Indian problem was to
violate all moral and legal rights
and laws that were there to protect the Indian' people,." said Ramona Bennett, speaking in the
library lobby last Thursday afternoon, January 27.
The Puyallup tribal chairwoman spoke before an audience of
Evergreeners and visitors, sponsored by the Native American
Students Association during Evergreen's Indian Awareness Week
celebration held last week .
Bennett gestured little as she
spoke about the Puyallup tribe's
five-year fight to gain ownership
of the Cascadia Juvenile Diagnostic Center in Tacoma, her
clear voice remaining calm and
unemotional. The Puyallup tribe
"evicted" the state from the fivestory hospital last October, and
occupied it for over a week while
negotiating with the federal government for the return of the
property.
Bennett told how Ihe tribal
council met in the auditorium of
the Cascadia center on the fifth
floor on Saturday evening, October 23, 1976, and decided to go
downstairs and serve an eviction
notice. The hospital staff reacted
like "a herd of wild Indians had
just threatened them" - according to Bennett, calling the Tacoma police and panicking even
though the Indians were unarmed
and most of the notices were
served by women.
The Cascadia center, formerly
Cushman Hospital, was built on '
Indian land in the 1930's. by the
federal government with the provision that it "could never be
used for anything but Indian
health purposes." In 1959, the
federal government sold the facilities to the state of Washington,
saying that the Indians no longer
had a health care problem . Yet
at the time one Indian tribe less
than 20 miles from Cascadia had
the highest infant mortality rate
in the country, Bennett said.

She termed the sale of the hospital illegal, part of "a termination policy by the government"
during the Eisenhower administration. "It was clearly geared to
a genocide of Indian people and
Indian cultures," she said.
"We enter in negotiations with
some honor and some honesty,"
Bennett continued . "The white
government relies on written
words. You know as soon as yiju
start having to write things down
that something is wrong, that
you are dealing with people who
don't have honor. Invariably the
governmental system violates its
own laws."
EV ANS AND CASCADIA
According to Bennett, attempts
were made to get the state to recognize that its possession of Cascadia was illegal. The state attorneys readily admitted this
fact, but legislators would not
take action because they felt their
constituencies would not favor
pro-Indian action.
"I know that [Governor Dan J
Evans was told repeatedly that
the state was trespassing on that
property," she said. "But he
chose to disregard the law. And
there were people on the state
staff who were telling him that
the state has no right there ...
Absolutely not caring and not
acting ."
When the Puyallups realized
the state would not listen, they
went to the federal government.
"The feds looked over all our

She explained that Indians plan
to transform Cascadia into a Native American community health
center, because communal living
and taking care of each other
have always been integral parts
of Indian culture.
"When we talk about Cushman ," Bennett explained, "We're
not talking about a five-story
building, we're talking about the
very basis of our culture, a place
to get well, a place to really find
ourselves. To establish the basis
of community protection that is
our heritage ."

can't know someone's mental

cells found at Cascadia, "with
only one little hole in the floor
to pee through and that's all."
Bennett said. "I can' t understand
why the people of this state have
allowed a place like Cascadia to
exist."

"'M y God, I Got Busted
By Eddie Haskell"
by Peter Rexford
About four months ago I made
a wager that Ken Osmond, who
portrayed Eddie Haskell in the
Leave It to Beaver TV series, did
not grow up to become rock star
Alice Cooper. Nor did he become porno movie actor John
Holmes. I know my trivia. ! pride
myself on being up-to-date as to
the goings-on of old television
personalities, and knew that Ken
Osmond was in fact an officer
with the Los Angeles police department.

Assorted Men's and Women's

I stayed in the acting industry
two or three years after Beaver
shut down, doing small parts,
but nothing .you'd remember.
Then I got out of it completely.

Security Pacific Bank. Tony is
still doing some acting and also
works as a contractor in Orange
County. Barbara is married to a
rather prominent children's doctor, and as I understand it, has
just retired and is enjoying herself. In the late 60's Hugh had a
rather massive stroke and is not
well-off, physically. The last I
heard, he was retired on a farm
in Minnesota. Frank has a kosher
catering service in Beverly Hills
which was his father's business
before him.

How old are you now?
There are rumors about everybody. There's one concerning
Jerry Mathers, that he was killed
in Vietnam, which is totally false .
He's very healthy and living in
Encino. As a matter of fact, Jerry
has a copy of his obituary hanging in his living room.
There are two major rumors
concerning me. The first is that
I'm Alice Cooper. I'm not. The
way that got started is that in an
interview Alice Cooper was asked
what he was like when he was a
child, and he said, "I was an Eddie Haskell," meaning just the
type of character. He was misquoted as saying, "I was Eddie
Haskel!." The major rumor about
me, concerning my pornographic
activities, is totally false . As a
matter of fact I've seen my name
in print concerning my pornographic activities, and I'm looking into some legal action on it.
Believe it or not, Peter, I'm a
police officer working for the
city of Los Angeles, and it just
really doesn't fit in. I don't think
the department is terribly fond
of it .
All the people who worked in
the "Beaver" series: Frank Bank
[Lumpy), Tony Dow [Wally],
Jerry Mathers [the Beaver], Bar. bara Billingsley [June Oeaver ),
Hugh Beaumont [Ward Oeaver)
- what are they doing now 1

After a show goes off, people
have to go out and get a real job.
As far as I know, Jerry is working in a training program at the

Thirty-three. We're all getting
old, aren't we, Pete?
As a retired actor, would you
recommend anyone trying to go
into the field to make a living 1
Definitely not. For me it was
great, making fantastic money
for my age, but it's something I
would not like to depend upon
to make my mortgage payments.
It takes a whole bunch of, luck
and a lot of people that you have
to know .
Do people recognize you in
your police work in North Hollywood?
It goes in spurts. For a few
months nobody will recognize
me, then everybody will. It's
kind of strange. The typical reaction is, "My God, I got busted
by Eddie Haskell." The first thing
. they ask is, "Where did you go
to school?" It's usually school
that they think they recognize
you from. It's really an embai-:"
rassing situation. You really don't
know what to do. If you don't
say anything and they find out
who you are, you're a little weird,
but if you say, "Yes, I'm Eddie
Haskell," they think you're some
kind of blowhard or something.
So you really don't know what
'0 say. You just got to kind of
stand there, at least I do.

Ken Osmond interview will be

Spacing Out On Zardoz
Editor's note: "Zardoz" will be
shown at the Cinema from February 7 - 9 as part of its science
fiction film series, which starts
today, February 3, and continues
through February 22.
by Stan Shore
ZARDOZ is an odd film, one
of the weirdest. A sci-fi romp
through the year .2293 starring
Sean Connery, who wears both a
pony tail and a flaming red loin
cloth, but not much else. John
Boorman - who did so well as
director of Deliverance - wrote,
produced, and directed this monstrosity of a film in 1974 - not
a good year for him, apparently.
But just the other day this reviewer was talking to a friend at
Evergreen and happened to mention ZARDOZ.
"That film was too much," my
friend said.
"Yes, I quite agree," I replied.
"Oh man, like don't tell me
you didn't like ZAROOZ?" he
moaned. I indicated that I certainly did not.
"Y ou were straight when you
saw it. weren't you?" he chided
me.
"Well, yes I was," I admitted.
"Your judgments are so valueoriented," he snapped, and then
launched into a long description
of the film, reminding me how
"unreal" it was:
"Like don't you remember the
first scene?" he asked. You're inside this giant stone King Kong
head with this weaselly guy
named Arthur, flying through

space to the colonies. And this
giant head lands and all these
people worship it and call it
ZARDOZ. One of the priests of
this weird religion is Sean Connery , and he rides on a horse
and kills the people who don't
obey his orders. But this time,
when everyone is bringing grain
to the giant idol monkey face,
Zed - that's Connery's name in
the film - jumps into the mouth
of the monkey .
"And then," he continued, "he
sees all the people in suspended
animation strung out like hydroponic vegetables along the walls
of this place, and some of them
are pretty women. Arthur gets
killed but comes back to life again later and the giant head with
all the grain lands inside the force
field village with the ' super smart
intellectuals, The women there
all dress like Egyptians - although they're all white as snow
and British, too. Remember?"
"I remember," I replied.
"Well," he went on, excitedly,
"wasn't it so spacey whp.n Zed
got captured by the rulers and
they interrogated him because
they didn't know anything about
what Arthur had been doing out
in the colonies? Then they found
out that Zed could get an erection, unlike any of the men they
. knew . So they projected a huge
X-ray photograph of Sean Connery getting an erection onto the
screen and they asked him how
he was able to do it, and he just
laughed. And then they visited
the Apathetics who were immor-

tals who had lost interest in living, but couldn't die, so they just
sat around staring off into space
- just like the American middle
class, you know . .. "
"And you liked this?" I interjected.
"Like wow, " my friend said,
brushing his hair away from his
eyes, "I didn 't like it; I didn't
dislike it. It just was and now it's
a part of us and has its own
symbols and its own reality.
Don't you remember? Near the
end, all the coal-miner-type
peasants came to the outside of
the force field and wanted to get
in. Then the rulers got angry at
one of the other rulers so they
forced him into a group mindfix to reorient him and his eyeballs rolled up into his head and
he moaned .
"And then," my friend continued, "the rulers wanted them- selves killed, so that they would
die forever and they realized that
this was why Zed had come, so
there was this massive orgy of
killing at the end. But it wasn't
gory, just theatric, like a ballet
of death. And everyone was so
happy to die. You know, they'd
realized death was part of the
whole cycle of existence and you know - that's like what the
whole film was about ."
"Do you think I should recommend the film?" I asked him, at
last, to get him to stop talking.
"You're so into duality I can't
believe it," he answered. "The
film just is. It's too sl?aced out to
be good or bad. "

Do you have any actipg plans
in the future 1
No, I don't, Pete. The closest I
get to it is a personal appearance
at a college every once in a while.
Jerry, Tony, and I have done a
little bit of traveling together for
these appearances, and I really
enjoy the trip. It's a relaxing
weekend. Being a police officer is
secure, and it's a great way to
, raise a family. '1 have a wife and
two sons.

But I had to prove it to win
the bet. A little investigation
found Officer Osmond working
the night watch of Los Angeles'
North Hollywood Division, and
he agreed to a phone interview
at his home the following morning. I called early the next day to
assure a good, long interview,
but I dialed the wrong area code
and got some poor man out of
bed in Will mette, Illinois. I tried
again and this time reached Ken
Osmond, and his answers are excerpted below.

Not really . Everyone pulled
jokes on the set, and Eddie's kind
of joke would end up with someone getting in 'real hot water. I
don't think I was any worse than
the rest of them. We'd go to the
makeup man and he'd put some
ugly wound across Jerry's [Beaver Cleaver) face, and then he'd
walk out on the set, and the director would come unglued when
it was really nothing more than
makeup. This is typical of some
of the things we'd do.

"'M y God, I Got Busted
By Eddie Haskell"
by Peter Rexford
About four months ago I made
a wager that Ken Osmond, who
portrayed Eddie Haskell in the
Leave It to Beaver TV series, did
not grow up to become rock star
Alice Cooper. Nor did he become porno movie actor John
Holmes. I know my trivia. ! pride
myself on being up-to-date as to
the goings-on of old television
personalities, and knew that Ken
Osmond was in fact an officer
with the Los Angeles police department.

The show ran for six years,
from 1957 to '63. The show was
really kind of unique. The cast
and crew clicked all together and
were like a family . It was a constant one-practical-joke-after-another. We had 'a wardrobe man
who was the original Gullible
Person. We'd play a stunt on
him and he'd fall for it, then ten
minutes later someone would
play the same stunt and he'd fall
for it again. It was really like a

Assorted Men's and Women's

I stayed in the acting industry
two or three years after Beaver
shut down, doing small parts,
but nothing .you'd remember.
Then I got out of it completely.

Security Pacific Bank. Tony is
still doing some acting and also
works as a contractor in Orange
County. Barbara is married to a
rather prominent children's doctor, and as I understand it, has
just retired and is enjoying herself. In the late 60's Hugh had a
rather massive stroke and is not
well-off, physically. The last I
heard, he was retired on a farm
in Minnesota. Frank has a kosher
catering service in Beverly Hills
which was his father's business
before him.

How old are you now?
There are rumors about everybody. There's one concerning
Jerry Mathers, that he was killed
in Vietnam, which is totally false .
He's very healthy and living in
Encino. As a matter of fact, Jerry
has a copy of his obituary hanging in his living room.
There are two major rumors
concerning me. The first is that
I'm Alice Cooper. I'm not. The
way that got started is that in an
interview Alice Cooper was asked
what he was like when he was a
child, and he said, "I was an Eddie Haskell," meaning just the
type of character. He was misquoted as saying, "I was Eddie
Haskel!." The major rumor about
me, concerning my pornographic
activities, is totally false . As a
matter of fact I've seen my name
in print concerning my pornographic activities, and I'm looking into some legal action on it.
Believe it or not, Peter, I'm a
police officer working for the
city of Los Angeles, and it just
really doesn't fit in. I don't think
the department is terribly fond
of it .
All the people who worked in
the "Beaver" series: Frank Bank
[Lumpy), Tony Dow [Wally],
Jerry Mathers [the Beaver], Bar. bara Billingsley [June Oeaver ),
Hugh Beaumont [Ward Oeaver)
- what are they doing now 1

After a show goes off, people
have to go out and get a real job.
As far as I know, Jerry is working in a training program at the

Thirty-three. We're all getting
old, aren't we, Pete?
As a retired actor, would you
recommend anyone trying to go
into the field to make a living 1
Definitely not. For me it was
great, making fantastic money
for my age, but it's something I
would not like to depend upon
to make my mortgage payments.
It takes a whole bunch of, luck
and a lot of people that you have
to know .
Do people recognize you in
your police work in North Hollywood?
It goes in spurts. For a few
months nobody will recognize
me, then everybody will. It's
kind of strange. The typical reaction is, "My God, I got busted
by Eddie Haskell." The first thing
. they ask is, "Where did you go
to school?" It's usually school
that they think they recognize
you from. It's really an embai-:"
rassing situation. You really don't
know what to do. If you don't
say anything and they find out
who you are, you're a little weird,
but if you say, "Yes, I'm Eddie
Haskell," they think you're some
kind of blowhard or something.
So you really don't know what
'0 say. You just got to kind of
stand there, at least I do.

Ken Osmond interview will be

Spacing Out On Zardoz
Editor's note: "Zardoz" will be
shown at the Cinema from February 7 - 9 as part of its science
fiction film series, which starts
today, February 3, and continues
through February 22.
by Stan Shore
ZARDOZ is an odd film, one
of the weirdest. A sci-fi romp
through the year .2293 starring
Sean Connery, who wears both a
pony tail and a flaming red loin
cloth, but not much else. John
Boorman - who did so well as
director of Deliverance - wrote,
produced, and directed this monstrosity of a film in 1974 - not
a good year for him, apparently.
But just the other day this reviewer was talking to a friend at
Evergreen and happened to mention ZARDOZ.
"That film was too much," my
friend said.
"Yes, I quite agree," I replied.
"Oh man, like don't tell me
you didn't like ZAROOZ?" he
moaned. I indicated that I certainly did not.
"Y ou were straight when you
saw it. weren't you?" he chided
me.
"Well, yes I was," I admitted.
"Your judgments are so valueoriented," he snapped, and then
launched into a long description
of the film, reminding me how
"unreal" it was:
"Like don't you remember the
first scene?" he asked. You're inside this giant stone King Kong
head with this weaselly guy
named Arthur, flying through

space to the colonies. And this
giant head lands and all these
people worship it and call it
ZARDOZ. One of the priests of
this weird religion is Sean Connery , and he rides on a horse
and kills the people who don't
obey his orders. But this time,
when everyone is bringing grain
to the giant idol monkey face,
Zed - that's Connery's name in
the film - jumps into the mouth
of the monkey .
"And then," he continued, "he
sees all the people in suspended
animation strung out like hydroponic vegetables along the walls
of this place, and some of them
are pretty women. Arthur gets
killed but comes back to life again later and the giant head with
all the grain lands inside the force
field village with the ' super smart
intellectuals, The women there
all dress like Egyptians - although they're all white as snow
and British, too. Remember?"
"I remember," I replied.
"Well," he went on, excitedly,
"wasn't it so spacey whp.n Zed
got captured by the rulers and
they interrogated him because
they didn't know anything about
what Arthur had been doing out
in the colonies? Then they found
out that Zed could get an erection, unlike any of the men they
. knew . So they projected a huge
X-ray photograph of Sean Connery getting an erection onto the
screen and they asked him how
he was able to do it, and he just
laughed. And then they visited
the Apathetics who were immor-

tals who had lost interest in living, but couldn't die, so they just
sat around staring off into space
- just like the American middle
class, you know . .. "
"And you liked this?" I interjected.
"Like wow, " my friend said,
brushing his hair away from his
eyes, "I didn 't like it; I didn't
dislike it. It just was and now it's
a part of us and has its own
symbols and its own reality.
Don't you remember? Near the
end, all the coal-miner-type
peasants came to the outside of
the force field and wanted to get
in. Then the rulers got angry at
one of the other rulers so they
forced him into a group mindfix to reorient him and his eyeballs rolled up into his head and
he moaned .
"And then," my friend continued, "the rulers wanted them- selves killed, so that they would
die forever and they realized that
this was why Zed had come, so
there was this massive orgy of
killing at the end. But it wasn't
gory, just theatric, like a ballet
of death. And everyone was so
happy to die. You know, they'd
realized death was part of the
whole cycle of existence and you know - that's like what the
whole film was about ."
"Do you think I should recommend the film?" I asked him, at
last, to get him to stop talking.
"You're so into duality I can't
believe it," he answered. "The
film just is. It's too sl?aced out to
be good or bad. "

Do you have any actipg plans
in the future 1
No, I don't, Pete. The closest I
get to it is a personal appearance
at a college every once in a while.
Jerry, Tony, and I have done a
little bit of traveling together for
these appearances, and I really
enjoy the trip. It's a relaxing
weekend. Being a police officer is
secure, and it's a great way to
, raise a family. '1 have a wife and
two sons.

But I had to prove it to win
the bet. A little investigation
found Officer Osmond working
the night watch of Los Angeles'
North Hollywood Division, and
he agreed to a phone interview
at his home the following morning. I called early the next day to
assure a good, long interview,
but I dialed the wrong area code
and got some poor man out of
bed in Will mette, Illinois. I tried
again and this time reached Ken
Osmond, and his answers are excerpted below.

Not really . Everyone pulled
jokes on the set, and Eddie's kind
of joke would end up with someone getting in 'real hot water. I
don't think I was any worse than
the rest of them. We'd go to the
makeup man and he'd put some
ugly wound across Jerry's [Beaver Cleaver) face, and then he'd
walk out on the set, and the director would come unglued when
it was really nothing more than
makeup. This is typical of some
of the things we'd do.

ment. I would be going on leave no .
matter who the new president is. I had
this leave long before the board even
knew who the new president would be .
Also, this is not a sabbatical, but a
termination leave, which is common
for outgoing college presidents. And
there is a string attached to the second
year's pay : I must come back to Evergreen to collect it . If I don't come back,
no pay.
Do you think you've had it more difficult than other college presidents 7
It's been, I'm sure, a lot more fun.
The results at Evergreen have . been far
greater than nine years at some other.
place.
What part have you enjoyed the
most?
It's hard to put this without sounding corny . I've really enjoyed being in
the position to talk about what Evergreen students and faculty accomplish . .
Do you plan to hang around to make
sure things go all right?
I don't plan beyond June to, as you
put it, hang around .
Will there be shake-up in the administration?
That's entirely up to the new president .
Do you ever plan to write anything
about Evergreen for publication 7
I have written something about Evergreen which will be published this
spring. It's not about all of Evergreen,

by Matt Groening
The fullowing remarks are excerpted
from interviews with President Charles
McCann o n January 4th and 25th.
College presidents in the last decade
have 'been dropping like flies, but you
have lasted nine years, so whatever
you do now must seem easier. What
are you going to do 7
I will work at the Yale School for '
Organization and Management for two
years, then come back here as a member of the faculty . I'd like to find out
more about management, to study in
retrospect the kind of management I've
practiced ... That practice is to treat
the thing that the organization is built
to serve like a work of art.
Is this going to relate to your teaching when you get back 7
I certainly hope so . All my life I've
loved literature so I expect to be doing
some of that. I enjoy making students'
lives miserable over writing .. . I really
want to have the interdisciplinary capacity that the best of our faculty have.
Are you going to take a vacation7
Oh , the usual , a month or so, then
starti ng hitting the books .
There's been some criticism of your
sabbatical: full salary the first year and
half salary the second year. Do you
think that criticism is justified?
No t in my view. There is some confusion ove r my leave. First, some think
the leave is all part of the new appoint-

McCann's leave
co rltinued fro m page 1

nor about all of my experience here.
It's a chapter in a book about administration without departments, in which
the Evergreen experience, and that of
Santa Cruz, Green Bay, and Hampshire,
are compared to a place or two in Great
Britain. The Evergreen chapter is highly focused, but it does cover a big hunk
of what we've accomplished here, a lot
of the problems we face, and some of
the ones we still may face .
Looking back, is there anything you
would have done differently7
It sounds arrogant to say, but no.
That's the way I'd answer.
Not a single thing... Given the
same situations, you're likely to make
the same mistakes the first time through.
Are there any big changes in the
months before you leave the presldency7
I don't contemplate any.
You won't advocate statehood for
Puerto Rico at the last moment 7
I Laughs)
00 you have any long-range advice
for Evergreen? I realize, by the way,
that this is a little premature to be asking for parting remarks.
I suppose I ought to think about that
for a long time. 'I'd say maybe two
things : One is to keep hanging in there
to be the best publicly-supported undergraduate college, and the second is
to hang in there with a great tolerance
Evergreeners have shown for ambiguity .

his leave is largest and longest, according
to a Jan. 20 article in the Seattle PoI. Dr.
Emerson Shuck of ' Eastern Washington
State College was recently given a leave at
$40,000, his full salary, for nine months
ending last December. He was granted the
money in a closed meeting of their board
of trustees, and is to return to the college
to teach.
Centr ..: 'Nashington State College President James Brooks has been granted a
year's leave at three-fourths his $45,752
. salary when he leay~ the presidency in
1978. He, too, will return to teach.
Former President Charles Flora of Western Washington State College was given a
leave at three-quarters of his salary, which
came to $30,492, when he left. He is now
teaching biology there.
Ed Kormondy, Vice President and Provost at Evergreen, said, "I've been associated with three institutions in which the
president had resigned or retired after an
appropriate time, and in all the institutions
the president gets terminal leave." He said
that presidents get "typically a year, and
not un typically at full salary." Kormondy
said he'd known institutions that gave two
full years of leave .
.
Some faculty are sympathetic toward
McCann's position. They feel he probably
deserves it, and that it is worth the money
to be sure that the college doesn't lose him
and he comes back to teach .
But Beug and the faculty union both
suggest that McCann give up the two year
leave and take instead a one year leave at
top faculty salary .

The Evergreen State College

February 3, 1977

Evergreen On The Grill
by Stan Shore
Evergreen's Board of Trustees were
taken to task last night, February 2, at a
special state legislative hearing called to
investigate the selection of former Governor Dan Eva,ns and the two-year "terminal leave" granted to President Charles
McCann.
At the three-and-a-half hour evening
session, held in a crowded Senate hearing
room, the House and Senate Higher Education Committees questioned trustees,
administrators , faculty and students about
th e dual controversies. Although the two
committees could take no direct action
and reached no specific conclusions, the
critical co mments of the legislato rs indicated that Evergreen 's next budget may
come under close scrutiny later.
The purpose of the hearing , chaired by
Senator Gordon Sandison , w as to determine if any state laws - including Affirmative Action guidelines - had been
violated in the hiring of Evans to serve as
Evergreen's president starting in June 1977.
Also of interest was McCann's two-year
leave, which has been ' debated on campus
in recent weeks .
Senator A.L. Rasmussen , for one, did
not think the two events were unrelated .
"You [the trustees} were negotiating
with Evans, but it was first necessary · to
remove Dr.' McCann ... and that's why
he received a two-year sabbatical," Rasmussen postulated early in the hearing.
His accusation was repeatedly denied.
The trustees were also accused of :
- tailoring the presidential job requirements to fit Evans.
- not conducting a thorough search.
- having decided on Evans before calling the search committee.
- paying McCann an excessively large
leave.
None of these charges were proved, but
the legislators seemed unconvinced by the
explanations.
EVANS AND AFFIRMATIVE ACTION
Evergreen Affirmative Action Officer
Rindetta Jones, a member of the presidential search committee, defended the process used to select Evans. "It is my professional opinion, " she stated, "that the Af-

Trustee Herb Hadley testifies before the Joint Committee o n Higher Education last night.

firmative Action guidelines were followed ."
Assistant Attorney General Richard Montecu cco confirmed the legality of the hiring
procedure .
Jones went on to say that Evergreen is
"very racist and sexist," and as a result ,
she would not have been in favor of' a
minority or woman taking over the presidential post.
" I would not put the blondest white
woman, the whitest fat woman , a black,
Asian, red or yellow person in [the presidency 1. . . I would not have voted for
my own mother," she stated.
It was also disclosed for the first time
that Georgia legislator Julian Bond and
University of Maryland Provost Robert
Corrigan had both been discussed briefly
by the presidential search committee.
Rasmussen continually questioned the
propriety of Evergreen trustees discussing
the presidency with Evans - implying that
the search committee was a front for a decision that had already been made.

Trustee Hal Halvorson denied the charge
angrily, while others in the audience
laughed at Rasmussen's doggedness.
"At Evergreen people can see through
Mickey Mouse committees,"Halvorson explained. "And it was nobody's intent to
create a Mickey Mouse committee. If the
governor was available we would not
have formed the selection committee ."
Trustee T o m Dixon was equally outspoken in defense of the board's action:
" It would have been a sham and a shame
to interview 3,000 candidates and then go
ahead and do what you're going to do .. .
We didn't want a sham committee." He
reiterated that when the committee was
formed on December 8, Evans was unavailable and the trustees fully expected a
real search to begin. Only on December
20 did the trustees learn that Evans was
definitely interested in the presidency.
Then, at its first and only meeting, the 15member search committee unanimously
chose Evans.

SA VE $100,000
Later McCann defended his tw o-yea r
termination leave . the first year of whi ch
he will be paid hi s full presidential salary ,
the second year half tha t much , if he returns to Evergreen . He poi nted out that
only two other states have colleges where
the presidents serve a set ter m, s im ilar to
Evergreen's set term of six yea rs. After
. two such term s a n Eve rgreen pres ident
. must step dow n.
In Minneso ta a nd New York , acco rding
to McC an n, the presidents au to mati ca ll v
receive di stingu ished serv ice professo rsh ip s
w ith tenu re. secreta ri al help . a special
travel all owance, a nd sa lary " no less tha n
80 % of their pres ident ial sa larv." When
McCann re turns fro m his leave . he wi ll
join the fa cul ty a t regular sala ry. w hich is
abo ut 60 % of his prese nt pay.
" Th e am ount of money saved ." McCann
sta ted , refer ri ng to the o ther systems. "is
5100,000 to $150, 000 over the 14 years I
cou ld serve as a fac ult y member
I
think th e tru stees made a good ba rgain. '
Fac ulty member T om Rainey. speaking
for the faculty uni on , wa s less sati sfie d
with the leave.
"I am very much concerned - I would
say almost ou traged - w ith the decisio n
of the board relative to President \1c·
Cann, " he stated .
He pointed out that the funds for o ther
fac ult y leaves is very lim ited . McCa nn 's
lea ve equals the cost of eleven fa cult v
leaves, and under normal leave proce·
dures , according to Rain ey. a iacu lt y
member is statistically allowed o ne leave
every 33 years.
Student Colleen Hunt , wh o was on the
search committee and voted for Evans.
also criticized the selection process a nd
McCa nn' s leave .
Near the end of the hearing. after ha v ing suggested that Evans resign the presidency ' Rasmussen had another idea . Spea king to Faculty Member Willi Unsoeld . wh o
had strongly defended the college. Rasmussen said that Evergreen 's buildings
would make a good Department of Natural Resources .
Unsoeld paused a moment then an swered with grim humor that he preferre d
"a home for wayward girls .

Frozen Hiring On a Stick
I n the last few weeks, as Dixy Lee
Ray moved into the governor's office, the
heavy hand of the state h'as made itself
felt around campus, on issues from membership on the Board of Trustees to the
quality of faculty being hired .
Ray , as one of her first actions after
taking office in January, asked the State
Senate to not approve 124 appointments
still pending fro m the administration of
fo rmer Governor Dan Eva ns . This move
was vi rtually unprecedented in the state ;
when Evans took office he sto pped just
two appointees fro m being approved .
T he result : a t Evergreen, Trustee Ray
Meredith , who was a pPOinted last spring,
1976, but never officially confirmed by
the Sena te, had to step down . Across the
state, executive committees - including
the Public Disclosure Com mission - were
left una ble to function due to a lack of
quorum.
Ray's legislative liaison, Joe Zaspel, also
indicated that it was "likely" that T om
Dixon , the only black memb!!r ' of the
board, would be replaced when his term
expires at the end of February. The college has received no word on who might
be nominated to replace either Meredith
or Dixon .
The normal term fo r a trustee is six
years . Meredith served only nine m onths

and Dixon - who was appointed to fill
out Al Saunders' term in 1973 - has
served only four years.
In March 1978 Janet Tourtellotte Holmes'
term on the five-member board will expire, and if she is replaced the new gover-

work-study are not affected by the o rder,
according to Kay Atwood , Director of Financial Aid .
" It does have a dramatic effect, a really
negative effect on the hiring of facult y
members fo r next fall, " said Dean Will

"Student funds and
state work-study
are not affected
nor's 'appointees will be in control.
In"another surprise move, Ray ordered
an immediate freeze on all state hiring un til July 1977. The executive order applies
to both new positions and vacancies which
occur before July. Also, travel is to be se verely curtailed, with convention-going
specifically forbidden by the January 27
o rder.

Humphreys . The traditional date to res ign
from a posi tion a t a college, according to
Humphreys, is April 15, w hile th e tradi tional date to no tify someone without a
job is June 1. The deans are now in the
process of mailing out no tices that the
college is in the midst of a hiring freeze .
Full regulations for state colleges will
no t be available for another week or two ,
according to Business Manager Ken Wink-

ley . At that time Evergreen will know if
it ca n hire adjunct faculty to teach mod ules o r replace faculty on leave . Winkley
also warned that the guidelines spelled o ut
in the executive order may be substant i ·
ally modified for higher educati o n institu ·
ti o ns .
"I think Evergreen will co ntinue to
function," stated Rita Cooper, Direct or o f
Personnel, optimisticall y. " Everyo ne is
concerned that student -related -projects
like registration are done - we' ll just a ll
pit ch in to ge t them done. "
The Perso nnel Off ice is cont inu ing to
advertise , interv iew . and test fo r jo b open ·
ings , as if the freeze had not happe nerl . on
the assumpt ion that staff w ill be hired at ·
Ler June 30, w ith th e start of th e new bi ·
enn ium. There a re now three exempt sta tt
vacancies a nd five c1assi'fied s taff open ings .
" We average a bo ut two new o penings a
month ." Cooper sa id , ad ding th at Ra y
could co ntinue the hiring freeze for fo u r
yea rs if she wa nted, bu t it did not seem
li kely .
O ne Evergree n stu de nt , always on the
watch for silver linings, stated, "The best
faculty members may not come here be cause of the hi ring freeze, but at least we
know the Uni ve rsity of Washington isn' t
goi ng to get them ."
