Guard was brought in
and Mayor Paul Schell
announced a 7 p.m.

Kerry Ogden made
the best beans. They were
plump and spicy, covered
in a red blanket of sauce.
Once you'd smelled them
you couldn't say no and it
was darn difficult to avoid
a second helping, or even
a third. Beans are a strange
thing to remember about
someone, but the thought
of it would have made
Kerry laugh. Kerry frequently laughed, a
contagious chuckle that grew in volume and
mirth. She was a good soul, good to her
marrow, genuine and almost too generous for
her own good.
Kerry was also a proud woman and a
driven student. She, with her husband, Oggie,
came to Evergreen in the middle of their lives,
while raising their son James and daughter
Jenna. Kerry drove from Bremerton with her
closest friend Betty Hicks three and four times
a week to attend classes. Together, they were
often a force to be reckoned with in the
seminars of the Enchanted Kingdom, the
Russia program and more recently the South.
Kerry was an exceptional student who
managed to excel in her work at Evergreen,
raise a family and contribute to her
community. Last year she and Belty taught
immigrant children at a school near their
home. Le~rniIl g'w as a joy to Kerry and
teaching was a goa l. She had recently flIIished
her application ror Evergreen's Masters in
Teaching program. She enjoyed learning
enough to spread her tinal credits out, over
this, her senior year, in order to attend lectures
from several of Evergreen's upcoming
programs. She was the type of student we
should all aspire to be. She was proud of her
accomplishments in her education and
recently pleased with herself at fulfilling
several personal goals. I admire her for her

hard work and dedication, but also for her
wonderful personal qualities.
Kerry gave everyone a chance and was
not quick to judge. She enjoyed sharing her life
and made you feel as if she had an open-door
policy towards making friends, encouraging us
to make connections with others as well as
herself. I always assumed that Kerry's door
would never be shut. She has touched many
lives and has a great passel of friends and
admirers. We can't help but smile when we
think about her. She inspr ired something ill all
of us.
Kerry was killed in a car acc ident the
Wednesday before last , Dec. 1. We at
Evergreen are deeply saddened by her lo.ss. We,
her friends, peers and faculty, give ollr 1I10st
heartfelt sympathies to her family alld to Belly.
Kerry will graduate this June. When her name
is read aloud there will be many hearts torn
betwee n joy and sadness. Kerry Ogden is
greatly missed by all of us.

Y2K. The Millenium, These are words
offear for some businesses, governments and
even countries, TESC, meanwhile, maintains
a contident poise.
For The Evergreen State College the
coming of the millenium seems to merely bring
more experience and success than fear or talks
offate.
Many TESC students will be away from
home for the holiday that seems to be more of
a marker for the human race than anything
else. "I plan on heading to Santa Cruz for the
holidays, so I'm sure I'll be laughing at my
freezing classmates and friends that live in
Washington," a junior named Michele says.
Indeed, a vast majority of the college
students and stafl"will be nowhere near campus
for the big day. Some, however, will be here
marking the moment. "[We'll have] everybody
available on staff to work New Years Eve," said
Officer Neely of Police Services. Neely added
that most of the campus security that night
would deal with pOSSible alarms being
triggered or the like. In any case, extra staff
and security would be on hand to help reset
such alarms.
Computers and other electronics have
been sources of concern across the nation,
MaIlY still brlieve that computers will fiz zle
and televison will fail despite the extent of work
that has Ix'C'n done by companies spanning
Ii-otn Microsuli tu Mitsubishi. One studeIlt,
who wishes to be nameless spoke of
catastrophic ev(' nts . "I think the world will
collapse when everyone's television goes blank ,
or their cell phone stops working," he says.

Why? 2k!

Once again, TESC bounces back. "We've
been working on systems, patches, and
updates to make sure software on our systems
is compliant with Y2K efforts." Julian Pietras,
Assistant Director of Computing and
Communications, said. There have been
groups of staff discussing the situation and
laying plans to monitor systems during the
Y2 K period at the end of December. Pietras
says that there is a web page with information
and resources, and that "we will be on campus
on Jan. 2., for issues that arise."
Further explaining the progress ofTESC's
Y2K preparedness, is Dale Baird,
Administrator of Computing. According to
Baird, a consulting firm from the state
approached the school and discussed the
school's systems with some procedures to
follow. The school then purchased a program
called IEGEN. As Baird explains, "IEGEN
forces dates ahead in systems so we can look at
a system and test it." While this seems ahead,
it was actually planning from 1990 that gave
TESC a jump. "TESC converted from an older
form to DEC (Digital Electronic Co.) and
looked at issues at that time that might come
up," Baird continues. "We expect some minor
things like a few screen problems, but" nothing
major."
Meanwhile, AI Saari, Assistant Director
of Electronic Maintainance and Engineering
(EME) discussed items that have already been
taken care of. Things like checking microchips
imbedded in fax machines, and PCs that are
or are not compliant. Saari says, "we've
reviewed the radio station, as well as VCRs:
VCRs are checked for co mplian ce by setting
timers to certain dates and times and seeing if
they record or not."
Therc yo u have it, Wf ca n all sleep hetter
at night with the thought that at ll:'a st our
college will be fully operational when we come
back in the millenium.

"Koko was the subject ofa different kind
of research-linguistic studies. She's the only
animal who's owned a series of pets.
''I'm modeling the painting after
Raphael's Cis tin e Madonna, only she's
surrounded by her keepers instead of angels.
Her predecessors will be at her feet. They tried
to teach one how to speak, but she only learned
a few words. Koko learned sign language,
instead.
"Koko is ascending into heaven. Her right
hand on her shoulder is making her sign for
her name. In her other hand is her kitten.

On Thursday, Octuber 21, Evergreen
. student .I ('rry Dye lived up tu his nanlt'. Again.
I
"I was sitting there in class and all of a
I sudd en I couldn't get no air. Then-boom!- I
I was gone."
His heart had ceasrd to beat.
,
"I felt hardly any chrst pain at all- I just
lost total air, almost like a severe asthma
: attack-but my aorta was totally blocked oft·.
I and tl,~ a t's not a good thing.
.
I
A hf eguard III the hall had a (, PR mask
I in his pocket. and he brought me back. That
I was the third time I've heen pronounced dead.
"I have to believe you don't go until it's
your time , unless you're on an airp lane, of
course. I mean, for someone to be in th at
hallway at that moment, carrying a damn CPR
mask in their pocket-that's too bi zarre."
The next thing Jerry remembers is lying
on the floor, surrounded by on lookers. The
paramedics arrived and moved him out into
the hall.
"So me broa d with a ca mera started
shooting pictures-that pissed me off"
The paramedics took Jerry to the
I Em('rgency Room at SI. Peter's Hospital.
"The vet told me I'd had a heart attack.
When I asked how he knew, he said, 'You're
I
having another one now.'"
He went from the Emergency Room
directly into surgery.
"I signed the permission slip with IVs in
both hands."
The surgeons insrrted a stint into his
heart , to hold the artery open.
"I'm a walking erector set. I've got metal
I

in both feet, and two and a half pounds in my
stomach."
We were sitting outside the deli when
Jerry told me that. He'd been talking around
mouthfi.ils of salad, but suddenly he dropped
his fork and hiked up his shirt. I saw the round,
flat protrusion on the left side of his abdomen .
It looked like he'd swallowed a small canteen.
"That 's a medicine pump that helps me
walk. It sure fucks me up in the airport."
Besides heart disease , Jerry suffers from
multiple sclerosis. which has weakened the
tatty tissue that insulates his nerve fibers. As a
result, Jerry has lost both str ength and
coord in ation in his muscles.
Either a viral infection or a fault in th e
immune system may cause multiple sclerosis.
Whi le there is no cure, drugs may alleviate the
symptoms.
"Before the pump, I was on botoxin
injections for two years. That's a legitimate
poison that relaxes the lIIuscies so I can walk.
It was used in Europe for years, but it was just
approved in this country a year ago."
I asked if it was tested on animals before
it was approved, and he said it was. I asked him
how he felt about that.
" It's real important for it to continuewithout it a lot of us would be dead. I'm a total
humanitarian when it comes to the treatment
of animals; I don't think animals should be
hunted for their fi.lr- that's not necessaryand I wouldn't want anybody to shoot drugs
into a rat for no reason. But ifit'li give me more
mobility and make my life more normalshoot away, buddy.
"I've been a guinea pig most of my life.
Not many people have a Copenhagen can in
their fuckin ' stomach, but I'm one."

It's hard-the technical qualities of applying
the paint to get the effect you want.
'Tm trying to recreate religious imagery,
especially Mexican and Catholic imagery. It's
all copying. I ask myself, 'Is that okay?' But it's
th e tradition. I'm not exactly redoing any
monkey saints, anyway.
''I'm basica lIy painting monkeys in
people's clothes, which is funny, because it's
not right. There's some irony there, some
humor. There are serious images behind the
humor, though. I've learned, especially being
at Evergreen, that you don 't reach people's
sensibilities by beating them over the head.
"Religion is very, very personal. It gives
peopl e a way to access the work, but still leaves
it open to interpretation.
"Some people may have trouble with my
work. They can feel fr ee to protest-they can
bring a sign and a sack lunch-as long as th ey
see everything. "

Despite the shoddy support for their cause,
the steelworkers' march was successful; the
