FIRST PEOPLES
First Peoples at Evergreen describes people of racial and ethnic
backgrounds commonly referred to in America as "minorities," or
more recently as "people of color."
In 1986, Evergreen students, staff and faculty members gathered
together and chose the name First Peoples in recognition of our
unique indigenous heritages. We are African Americans, Native
American Indians and Alaskan Natives, Asian Americans, Pacific
Islanders and Chicanos/Latinos.
So what's it really like to be a First Peoples student at Evergreen?
There's a lot to learn and experience, and for a while it can seem
overwhelming or bewildering. Some new students jump right in and
participate in social or political activities sponsored by student
organizations. Others wait, watch and test the waters first. We
believe there is room for all First Peoples to succeed at Evergreen.
FIRST PEOPLES
En el idioma de Evergreen, "First Peoples" describe a Ia gente
comunmente Hamada "minoria" o mas recientemente "personas
de color" en EEUU.
En 1986, los estudiantes, Ia facultad y el personal universitario
adoptaron un nuevo nombre: First Peoples. Este nombre reconece
el origen indigena de nuestras culturas.
Asi pues, (cual es Ia realidad de ser un estudiante de "First
People" en Evergreen? Hay mucho que aprender y mucho con que
experimentar. AI principio, sin embargo, puede parecer
demasiado, ya hasta te puede confundir. Algunos de los nuevos
estudiantes se sienten muy,integrados y participan en las
actividades sociales y politicas patrocinadas por los diferentes
grupos estudiantiles. Otros estudiantes prefieren esperar,
observar y examinar el ambiente. Pero nostros creemos que hay
algo en todos los estudiantes de "First People" que hara que
tengan exito en Evergreen.

What would I tell students of
color if I were responsible for
recruitment?
"You will gain an
education at Evergreen X University
become indoctrinated. "
to three other colleges
indoctrination. But at
I've learned how all
different subjects area
to the real world. So,
eco-tourism policies. That means
I have to combine ecology,
economics. social issues. physical
sciences, tourism and public
policy throughout my education.
I will have a very diverse background and will know how to
apply my skills across a broad
spectrum of academic areas.
I've learned how to think as an
individual. as well as how to
work collaboratively with others.
I was planning to attend another
college in New Mexico to concentrate only on creative writing,
but I heard about Evergreen from
other professional writers and
an academic advisor at another
university. That's when I decided
that I needed a broader perspective than just writing - I needed
to have something to write about.
I think that the teachers work
really hard at Evergreen. They put
a lot of time into working with
students. Overall, Evergreen is a
very challenging school because
it's centered on students and
helping us achieve our goals.
I feel as though my academic
interests are respected and that
the learning environment is one
of inclusion.

The First Peoples Coalition comprises students, staff and faculty of
color at Evergreen. Often at the initiative of the First Peoples student
organizations, we gather for events such as potlucks, community
forums, political discussions and celebrations. Traditional annual
gatherings include Day of Absence/Day of Presence and First Peoples
Graduation. During the Day of Absence, the First Peoples' Coalition
spends the entire day away from the Olympia campus to welcome
new members, renew acquaintances and discuss issues that affect
the Community of Color. During the Day of Presence we gather
together on campus as a demonstration of our unity. In june,
we celebrate the end of the academic year with First Peoples
Graduation. We recognize those who have made significant
contributions to the Coalition and honor the achievements

the admissions process, when our representatives will visit your community and what
other student services we can offer you at Evergreen.
We will also:

questions about the campus or the curriculum.
• Invite you to spend a day on campus - hosted by a currently enrolled Evergreen student.
Sit in on a lecture or seminar, sample the campus cuisine and take a tour of our facilities.
We can also schedule an appointment for you to meet with a member of the faculty.
• Keep you apprised of your admissions application review. Is your file complete?
What's missing? When will you need to pay your advance tuition deposit?
• Assist you with your scholarship search process. We research scholarships offered by
independent foundations and publish a brochure listing the scholarships. Every November,
Evergreen publishes its undergraduate scholarship flier and offers a large number of
scholarships to new students of color.
• Connect to other student services: Financial Aid, Housing, Academic Planning and
Experiential Learning, Career Development, Learning Resource Center, Student Activities,
Recreation and Athletics and First Peoples' Advising Services.
Sometimes currently enrolled Evergreen students continue to use our office as

conversation or a lot of laughter. We appreciate their support and enthusiasm and
hope you will soon be among them.

Juan Martinez,Jr
I'm completing a journey
that has lasted almost thirty
years. I started my college
education in 1968 at a
junior college in California.
Since then, I got married,
raised a family, became a
grandfather and attended
three more colleges.
Finishing my college
education is very important
to me because I'm setting an
example for my kids and my
eight grandkids. If they see
Grandpa going to college,
they won't have an excuse
for not going to school.
.
I was
an Upward Bound student at
Evergreen in 1988. I actually started
at Evergreen right out of high
school, but !stopped-out. I attended
a couple of community colleges in
Seattle, studying to become a
graphic illustrator. I also became
a mom. Then, I came back to
Evergreen in 1995.
There's a really good support
network for students with children.
The day care is just beautiful- it's
the best day care Devon has ever
been in. There have also been
occasions when I've had to take
Devon to class with me and the
faculty has been so understanding.
I really appreciate the whole
community because they are
supportive of me and what I
want to do.

FIRST PEOPLES' ADVISING SERVICES
provides students of color with support that fosters retention. Learning about the academics is part of every college experience. You will also learn more about yourself in an
historical, cultural and social context. Our support throughout this developmental process
is both challenging and sustaining. We promote the importance of the individual in the
community and provide the necessary skills for well-being and academic growth in a
pluralistic society. We also support a continuing dialog for the entire campus community.
We challenge and encourage the development of diversity throughout the institution that
will create and maintain a hospitable environment for our success.
Our services are comprehensive- including academic planning/advising, social activities, graduate school advising, career development and personal counseling. There isn't a
question too small ("What are the academic programs like?") nor any goal too great
("!want to go to medical school, can you help me?") that we can't answer. We also offer:
• Fall Orientation Programs for new students. The Undergraduate Scholars Fellowship is a
pre-orientation program designed for new students to enhance transition to Evergreen.
Two other workshops offered during Orientation Week are "Building Allies" and "The Real
Story on Seminar for Students of Color."
• Leadership Development for student employees through our Peer Support program. Peer
counselors/advisors are paraprofessional staff members. They receive year-long training
through a class offered in collaboration with Housing and the Counseling Center. The
training includes developmental models on student development, counseling techniques,
communication techniques, records maintenance and more.
• Events Planning with the student organizations. The Peer Counselors co-sponsor events as
a means to develop connections with students. A sample of these activities include: annual
reading from the Students' of Color Anthology, dances, and guest speakers and performers
like "Here and Now."
• Community Building and keeping connections vibrant. Through our quarterly potlucks
held for students, staff and faculty members we can sustain our campus-wide relationships.
We've also sponsored a variety of forums on cross-cultural communication and the value of
affirmative action. We also plan and organize Day of Absence/Day of Presence, which is an
annual winter quarter event.
• Mentoring others often leads to a greater understanding of the community and a richer
understanding of one's cultural heritage while helping others. This leadership program
includes opportunities on- and off-campus with the youth in the South Puget Sound region.
• Advocacy and assistance can take many forms. Sometimes it is knowing the appropriate
referral; other times, you may just need someone to talk to so that you can organize your
thoughts and be able to resolve a situation. Our staff members also offer mediation services, can facilitate group discussions on diversity, and can accompany students to disciplinary hearings.

liderato incluye oportunidades en Ia universidad asi como fuera de Ia universidad con Ia
juventud de esta region.
• Abogac'a y apoyo. Este servicio puede tomar varias formas. A veces solamente necesitas
saber con quien debes consultar sobre un problema. Otras veces tal vez solamente necesitas
hablar con alguien para orientarte y tu mismo resolver algo. Nuestro personal ofrece
servicios de mediaci6n, puede facilitar discusiones en grupos sobre Ia cuesti6n de Ia
diversidad, y puede acompanar estudiantes a procesos disciplinarios.
The narrative evaluation process
has been a real highlight for me
because getting an "A" or a
"B" grade" only compares my
work to the work completed by
nmPnrlP else. The evaluation
what I've done - my
to the class book
my research project,
written about my weaknesses
the areas I need to improve,
which I find very helpful because I
know that I am going to graduate
school and feel that I can prepare
myself for those future academic
challenges.

So far my studies at Evergreen have
included cultural studies and history
(from an American perspective),
European, Latin American and
Arab-Islamic studies, some feminist
theory and literature. Now I'm ready
for a study abroad opportunity and
an internship. I will be in Namibia
for one quarter, studying the
political struggles of an emerging
nation and the past and current
effects of apartheid and poverty.
When I return, I will have an
internship placement with my high
school English teacher who has
inspired me to teach multicultural
literature. I will share my
experiences with these high
school students bringing together
the past and current affects of
racism and poverty in our own
country, how Namibia hopes to rise
above their previous problems, and
hopefully add my ideas of how
Americans can evolve.
I've attended two other colleges.
I know I would not have had the
same opportunities to learn and
teach as I have at Evergreen.

growth, lasting friendships and solidarity. Involvement can help you learn to work more

At Evergreen, you'll find that student organizations are more than just clubs or
social alliances. Of course, they provide activities and opportunities for fun and social
interaction, but they also provide cultural, educational, recreational and spiritual services
to students. Students working with First Peoples student organizations conduct important
work against racism and harassment and help the entire community understand, welcome
and honor diversity. Involvement can give you one of your best and most worthwhile
experiences as a student.

I'm preparing to go to law
school. I've been able to
combine my interests in
environmental studies, tribal
natural resources and federal
Indian law through my studies
at Evergreen. Since practical,
hands-on experiences are
stressed here, I've taken the
opportunity to study via
internship placements. One of
the placements was with the
Northwest Indian Fisheries
Commission and I met with
local tribal representatives
on a weekly basis during the
Washington legislative session.
I was able to gain insight and
experience in community
organization, statewide politics
and giving public testimony on
natural resource issues.
