Vandalism to outdoor walkway lights
around the CAB and CRC buildings is raising
eyebrows for the third time.
Police Services is investigating bizarre
tampering with the internal wiring of the light
poles. The tampering was discovered close to
two weeks ago and is the third such act in
three years. What is most dangerous about
the tampering is that the poles carry high
voltage currents.
The problem was uncovered when
maintenance crews were trying to solve what
seemed to be a simple problem of lights not
working. Upon further inspection, it was

release Wednesday that contact with such a
current could cause serious or fatal injuries to
the vandals and could potentially create a
hazard for passers-by. Previous electrical
vandalism had occurred near housing. This
was the first such tampering near the CAB and
CRe.
Clint Steele, Building Maintenance/
Shops Supervisor stated that although lights
broken by pellet guns and rocks are common,
wire tampering is fairly rare. To get at the
wires, the vandals had to break into the access
panels on the side ofthe poles.
Steve Trotter, Acting Director of
Facilities, said that about eight years ago Steele
and co-worker The Nguyen checked every
walkway light pole on campus and later
vandal·proof screws were installed. When the
lights stopped working this time, Trotter
wondered ifit may be a problem inherent to
the poles' wiring. But vandals had broken into
the access panels and "messed with the
wiring," in Steele's words.
When asked if the tampering were of
sinister intent, or simple acts of vandalism,
Steele and Trotter felt the incidents were not
of a particularly malicious intent but very
dangerous nonetheless. ''There is tamperin g
going on that we need to be concerned about,"
said Trotter on Wednesday. Police Services is
equally concerned. On one ofthe previous two
tampering occasions, witnesses saw two men
pulling wires from a light pole. The men ran
away when they saw they'd been discovered .
The witnesses immediately told Police
Services . No arrests were made, and no
descriptions of the suspects are available.
"We would like to get as many eyes out
there as possible," said Trotter. "If you spot
something, report it." Police Services is keenly
interested in any incidents of vandalism and
can be contacted at x6140.

there is a college where your professors do care,
finding friends that you really can depend on ,
and making the best of thi s world is what
Evergreen is for.
As long as we can keep the grading
system as it is, the general spirit of mellow
effectiveness, and the continuing of the holistic
approach to learning, will remain above the
narrowness of other institutions, This is not a
party college. The reputation of this being a
party college is bringing us down, It is what
will make our degrees worthless outside of
Evergreen. The unfair part is that th ose of us
who work our asses off at Evergreen bear that
bellwether.
Those of LI S who are student leaders, who
plan college events like the Spring Arts Festival
or GeoCo n, are left with op enin gs for
volunt eers to hrlp out. When you wo rk in
things like the S & A, you learn really quick who
cares and who doesn't. Usually more who don't
than those who do. But we still keep planning
dances, pot lucks, protests and benefits in th e
hope we can enrich the lives of the students at
this college.
To those who do 1I0t partcipate, I ask:
Aft er a whil e, does n't sitting ill your room
listening to music get boring'! After a while ,
does n't puking 50 bucks worth of alcohol get a
little painful? Does n't it make you feel a little
unhappy when you break your beer bottles on
the ground and waste TP by decorating a newly
leaved tree? Do you realize how painful it is to
watch student after student slip away from the
class and fail ? Do you like it when you friends
get all fri ed and ge t in fi ghts? Do you like
spending all your money on beer and drugs?
Do you like stepping on broken glass?
Do you really belong at Evergreen?
Do you deserve to be at Evergreen?

well over year in advance and is confirmed and definite at least
one quarter in advance. To request Communication Building
staff, room , and resource support for your production or
presentation, you must fill out and turn in a production
proposal packet the quarter prior to the quarter in which you
need the resources.

0019- Narcotics are seized in F-lot by undercover TESC narc
Sonny Burnett, who informs the CPJ that the well-loved
parking lot has become "a veritable powder pipeline straight
to the South American cartels. It takes a lot ofcajones to move
that much product." Apparently, an oft-used smuggling

Shortly thereafter, Housing raises th e monthly rent by an

maypoles, flagpoles, fishing poles and magnetic poles are each

1115- A student who has not been heard from in a while is
reported missing. Initially the missing person is believed, in an
incredibly ironic twist of fate, to be little Jessica McClure all
grown-up, and all campus wells are immediately plumbed.

general position, guessing the hour, and dividing that number
by the amount of time you have to reach your destination.
Strangely, the resulting figure is almost always rounded to
"still pretty early."
1000- Attempted burglary on campus reminds me of a line
from my favorite episode of Cheers: "It's a dog eat dog world
and I'm wearing Milkbone underwear."
1818- Fire alarm in S-dorm is caused by fallout from India's
rogue nuclear testing. Or somebody burnt their damn food

2002- Fire alarm in D-dorm. Dr. Drew prescribes a topical
cream.
2200- David Wells is called back from the Campus Utility

Thanks to thos e hard working
members ofS.E.E.D. (Students of Evergreen
for Environmental Design), the campus now
has an In -Vessel Compos t System at the
t:1rm.
Since last quarter, S.E.E.D. has been
collerting compost from almost all of the
dorm s except for A through D. So far.
app roximately 750 to 800 pounds of lood
waste haw been collected per week. The
EVl'rgreen Compost Project has saved over
two tons of organic matter from the landlill,
whirh costs the school $62.50 per ton. not
including gas and labor. The central
compost bins from the MODs and
COlll munit y Ce nll'r have been co lle cted
every Friday at 8 a.m., Jnd taken to th e Yelm
Earthworm and Cast ings Farm , weighed
and th en fed to the worms. "Aside fr~1ll a
fCw spills and some drunken mayhelll ,"
stat es jeffClllg, "the project has go ne mll rh
sinoother than ('xpected."
The In-Vessel Compust Systcm speeds
up the decompusitioll process by using a
blower. Forring air into an insulat eu box of
wood , the HiOO pounds ollood waste will
curl' within thre('tu-Iour weeks. ThankliIlly.

Many thanks goes ou t to Scott Putzil'r

"F REEDOM OF SPEECH:
Every person may freely speak, write and publish on all subjects, being
responsible for the abuse of that right."
- Article I, Section 5, Washington St~te Constitution 1889

Students re-emphasize
critique of status quo
We would like to respond to a few
comments that faculty Alan Nasser raised about
the letters we and three other concerned
students wrote regarding a recent faculty hiring
for an International Political Economy position.
In the article we responded to various issues: the
IPE hiring, th e lack of awareness that students
have regarding the faculty hirings and our
co ncerns about the lack of diversity among
students and faculty. Nasser simplified the
comp lexity of our critiques by reducing our
examination of Evergreen 's overall commitment
to lIlulticllltmalislIlLO this single faculty hire in
his stat ement "what these tive letter-writers are
complaining about is that they did not ge t what
they wanted." i':ot only is this a simplistic view
orour analysis of Evergreen, but that hi s view of
our critique as "complaining" was very
patronizing,
Nasser maintains a si mplistic view of the
pOSition students should hold in facutly hiring
committees:
"student opinion about faculty hiring
carries far less weight than faculty opinion. An
individual student is at the college for three or
four years at the most, a faculty member may well
be the hire's colleague for decades. Of course,
faculty have the predominant voice in faculty
hiring. "
Is the priority in faculty hiring at Evergreen
lor facult)! members to gain new "colleagues for
decades"? Nasser implies that he prioritizes his

interests in colleagues over that of students'
curriculum needs, Furthermore, Nasser seems
to maintain that his viewpoint represents that
of the entire taculty body concerning students'
participation in hiring committees.
Nasser contends that students in laculty
hiring committees are" providers of suggestions
and opinions" and asserts that "it is and should
be the faculty 's decision as to how much weight
to give these inputs, " Nasser seems to imply that
student5are transient and thus, he reduces their
input to mere "suggestions and opinions." The
demands that students make now concerning
faculty hiring Illay well influence the future of
Evergreen,
Nasser claims that "s tudents a re
encouraged to join hiring committees." Yel.
according to most of the students that we have
spoken to their awarelless about faculty hiring
committees has been through word-of-mouth.
The kinds of students that are encouraged to
participate in the hiring process are those that
are asked by faculty members. For faculty to
choose students who they think would be
appropriate for the hiring committees is elitist
and hierarchical. Faculty should openly
publicize hiring committees to all students in
their programs and not to selected students who,
in their opinion, are "qualified,"
Stephanie Guilloud, a concerned political
economy student and one of the five student
letter-writers that commented on the lack of
diversity among faCility at Evergreen, posed the
tollowing:

"Why is Evergreen not hiring people that
exemplify the ideals of an interdisciplinary
school? Hiring people of color and women is not
about quotas, Diversitying a college in desperate
need is not an obligation but a priority,"
In our letters, we claimed that "there is a
trend at Evergreen of hiring faCility who
represcnt a kind of ex perien ce that does not
relleet multiculturalism, but white privilege,"
The purpose of our respo nse letters was to raise
thl' issue of Evergreen's overall commitment to
IIllllticulturalism and that t he recent facultv
hiring of white mal es ill such departlllents a~s
Compa rative Religions, American Studies , and
Inl rrnat ional Political Economy do not relle ct
Evergreens commitment to diversit)" ~asser
obviously missed the fact that we werl' using the
IPE hiring to highlight this trend.
III light of this trend, maybe Evergreen
should re-examine their commitment to
llluiticulturalism and actually do something
about the lack of diversity among students and
farulty. As students of color, we believe there is
a direct correlation between retention of
students of color and the lack of curriculum
tocused on people of color. The lack of faculty
of eo lor is directly related to this issue.

Pornography doesn't
cause rape
This Il,tter is in regards to Comtney Aiken's
"Brief discussion on pornography" in the 5/7
CPj
Shc and I co uld take turns writing Ic,tters
concerning different studies' findings 'til
kingdolll come, so I won't deal too much with
thaI. But I feel the results of certain causality
studies that she takes from Transforming A Rapc
[lIltllre should be addressed .
Firstly, Courtney states that, from "a
scientific view, ca usality is merely increased
probability." This is not true. The number of
drownings per day correlates highly with the
sales of sunglasses, but it would be a mistake to
say sunglasses cause drownings, or vice versa
(Surgeon General's Workshop On Pornography
And Health, 1986, p. 11)_
In Transforming A Rape Culture, all the bad
things they claim pornography causes
(intensification of predisposition to rape,
undermining of internal inhibitions against
acting out rape desires, male college students'
increased likelihood ofthinking that "no" means
"yes," and desensitization to violent
pornography) are drawn from three sources:
Pornography And Sexual Aggression, edited by
Neil Malamuth and Edward Donnerstein,
Connections Between Sex 'And Aggression by
Dolf Zillman , and "Pornography And Rape: A
Causal Model" by Diana Russell in Political
Psychology, Vol. 9, No, L
Neither Malamuth nor Donnerstein
(maybe th e pre -e minent porn researcher)
support suppression of pam, Zillman has founel
increased aggression in a laboratory setting in
response to any type of arousal (whether it be

porn or aerobics), and Russell is far from an
impartial researcher, having been an activist
against porn ever since 1976, It is not science
when one picks at things for the desired resultwhether it be from the resuits (as Transforming
A Rape Culture seems to have done) or during
the "study." Studies of the effects of porn are
often highly flawed, for numerous reasons (Sex
& Sensibility, Marcia Pally, p, 28-31), chiefly
among them being the usual extreme bias of the
researchers. In The Price We Pay. a number of
researchers outright call for more studies
favoring their point of view and claim that
anyone who disagrees with what they already
"know" is wrong, Science is supposed to discover
things, not work as a means to gaining
acceptance of one's ideology,
Courtney points out "that the rape rates of
Denmark and Sweden have increased since"
Kutchinsky's study found that they had dropped
since the relaxation of anti·porn laws, This is not
necessarily true- the rate of rape reports rose
(which may have been due to a less repressed
attitude toward sex),
All scientific studies must be looked at with
the greatest scrutiny for the smallest mistakes
can alter the results a great deal. Track down the
actual studies and read them, and I'm sure you'll
find them riddled with problems.
I am one of those people who does not
believe the "the devil made me do it" excuse,
People act of their own accord, They learn from
and respond to their environment. This is not
to say thaI porn does not count as part of one's
environment. But, if one has the attitude that
rape is wrong before a porn film is shown to

thrill, the 111m will not chan ge thaI.
The most glaring fault in the claim that
porn causes rape is the gro upin g of all pornmost of which dispbys consensual sex between
consenting adults, I fail to see how this could
possibly have anything whatsoever to do with
rape.
Finally, she liken s pornography to
prostitution, "the purchase of sex, which implies
an imbalance in power. " The purchase of sex
implies no more of an imbalance in power' than
does the purchase of a book. The only difference
is society's repressed view of sex- that it isn 't
something to be sold, that it's precious, This is
not , however, a truth. It is a belief Sex, in
actuality, is no more precious than music, or
thoughts, or emotions- all of which can be
bought (whether in audio or visual form) in this
capitalist society in which we live, Is an
imbalance of power present when you buy a
Madonna album? Both she and j enna jameson
are doing what they want to do (the only
supposed evidence of a porn star being forced
into the industry is the case of Linda Lovelaceand that was by her husband, whom porn
empowered her to leave and, in the meantime,
allowed her some respite) and getting paid a lot
for it, since people buy it.

Jokes are

part of
the
problem
The May 14 issue of the CPj ca rried an
article by Tom Bozeman, which distorted Illy
response to his statements abollt sexual violenrt'.
I wish to make clear what the tacts are.
I am unfamilar with the "Carlin test" It)r
jokes that Tom appears 10 be.so devoted to, and
frankly, I have no interest in it. This appears to
be a mcasure ofhulTIor for TOIll and others. I
persollally do nollind anything remotely Iii nil )'
about violence orany kind. The fael that yo u ca n
find any joke funny be it is rarist, sexist. at the
expense of someolle's religious beliefs, or the
experience of violence, as long as it passes this
"Carlin test" is what I find disturbing. I take no
issue with your right of free speech in telling
these jokes. However, I find it disgusting that
jokes that are insensitive to other people's
experience are worth so much olyour time when
they are so alienating and demea ning. Have you
no compassion for those in your commllnity? I
think it is time tor Tom to grow up.
I would like to correct Torn's
lIlisconception that I doubt males experience
violencc, Perhaps if Torn had read Illy re,~ ponse
more carefully, he would find that I had writkn
that he too could be vulnerable to an attack, both
sexual and physical. Torn also lIIistakc'"ly wrotl'
that "t he rate of male sexual abuse hovers at
about one ill 12" whell attll:!lIy it is marc
accuratc a t aile in six . I also would 1I0t Ill'
surprised that it is higher thallthat. bllt Illell alld
boys may find it marc difficult to ll'port such
abuse or attacks because it dul's not co incide wit h
their role as Illales to be vulnerablc. Maybe Tom
could consider t his the lI ext tillle he is cOlll lwlled
to make a joke abo ut abuse alld attacb becallse
he may not know who is listening, It could bl'
someone, male or female , who has heen a victilll
of assault and may not be ready to "appreciat c"
the "Carlin test" for his joke.
I !lnd it rather amusing that TOIll 's ego was
so very threatened by my letter that he had to
prove to the readers that he is an active illdividual
because he "did a contract 011 the drug war," and
".,,3m taking Democracy alld Free Speech."
That's swell, Tom. Many people attend this
school and regularly participate in dasses where
profound learning takes place, Why not step out
of this bubble that we so often take for granted
at Evergreen and put some of that intellectual,
academic experience to work? If you have any
desire to make a positive impact on this world,
you will need to have practical experience, nol
just the ability to use the academic jargon that
you seem so found of spouting, Tom, like it or
not, when you tell these jokes, YOU ARE PART
OF THE PROBLEM! I do not wish for you to be
silent, but hope that you could examine more
closely how your words affect others and do
indeed perpetuate violence. And so I leave the
readers with this quote since Tom voiced his
interest in the pursuit offreedom, It is something
I take to heart in the things that I do in working
towards progressive change,
"",a revo lution is achieved with neither
verbalism nor activism, but rather praxis, that
is reflection and action directed at the st ru ctures
to be transformed,"

Shallow Impact
Trevor: Well, we just saw Deep Impact, the
Steven Speilberg production that cost more
than several small countries (including Tonga).
What'ja think?
Jen: Leave it to you to bring up Tonga at a time
like this. TONGA wasn't hit by the tidal wave,
VIRGINA was. Duh.
What I think is stupid
is that I just read Gene
Shalot thinks it's a
"thriller with brains."
Who are they trying to
thrill, and where are
the brains? .
Trevor: Well, I don't
know for sure that
Gene Shalot was paid
off (I'm-Iooking-inyour-direction-StevenSpeilberg),
but
someone sure slipped
him an asteroid-sized chunk of cash to like this
movie. It might thrill a theater chock-full of,
oh I don 't know, trained monkeys, but there
sure weren 't any brains involved here.
Jen: Yeah, and that's the scary thing. I know
people who actually liked it. Really, no fooling.
They throroughly enjoyed it. Theses are people
I usually trust to like good films. What the heck?

Can you guess which cast this is?
AfIlold has kept her hands full,
supporting and directing not just one but two
complete casts.
"We had the vague idea when we went
int o auditions that we wallted to double cast
it ," she explains. There arc only a few central,
driving characters in the play. "The reason we
cast it twice over was to give our actors the
opportunity to explore two very contrasting
role s, that is two contrasting sides of

photo by Mike St erkowicz
themselves. And it worked!"
One cast is known as the Apollo Cast, and
the other. the Dionysus Cast. Besides differing
names. how are they different?
"One is how you'd expect it to be," she
replies mysteriously, "and the other is not ...
.
They will be very different.
"If you cO.me to one ," she adds with a
gleam in her eye. "you should corne to the
other."

Trevor: jen, I think your friends have been
replaced by trained monkeys. I mean, let's look
at the plot alone. There's a big asteroid hurtling

towards Earth that will surely send us all to our
firey doom (or, if you will, watery grave). Now,
if this movie starred, say, Steven Segal, he would
fly up into space with a copilot who happened
to be a beautiful woman and a Chris Rock-esque
sidekick, and then he'd kick that asteroid's ass
back from whence it carne! And indeed, the
screenwriters do send a spacecraft to destroy the
asteroid. But alas, it does precious little asskicking, and 90 percent of the movie turns out
to be filled with ...

On May 30, the Evergreen State College
will be hosting its second annual elid of the
school year party, UNITY GA IN. Last year's
Genesis party brought together over 1300
people from across the northwest, some
traveling all the way from British Columbia.
This year's event promises to be equally as
mind boggling with performances by Fred
Giannelli a.k.a. The Kooky Scientist (Plus 8/
Definitive Records, Detroit) , Wave Rider
(1200 records,Texas), Ravi (Portland's
premier house DJ) and many more, including
a live performance by Olympia's own ICU (K
records).
Unity Gain will be taking place in the
T.E.S.C. library, showcasing three floors
(1000, 2000, and 4300) of various musical
styles and visual ambiance. The first floor,
House Foundations, will consist offour of the
Northwest's top House Djs, as well as a guest
appearance by Wave Rider in his first
Northwest show. This floor will be
concentrating on 4/4 rhythm structures with
plenty oflow end.
The main floor, Technical Dimensions,

will be focusing in on more obscure forms of
electronic music , mainly techno. Fred
Giannelli is probably the genre's longest
running, most respected artist. Fred now
owns and operates his own label as well as
putting out over 40 releases, most notably on
Richie Hawtin's Plus 8 label under the Kooky
Scientist title. Fred has also never performed
in the Northwest. This live performance
promises to be nothing short of astounding.
Fred will also be performing Friday, May 29
at 12 a.m. for "the End," 107.7 FM. Other
Djs include Seattle's Masa (owner!operator
of 1200 Records), Carlos Miguel (owner!
operator of Delicious Music in Seattle) and
Oly's own Sean Patrick a.k.a. Dj Lotus.
The third floor, 4300, will be focusing
on breakbeats, mainly hip hop and drum and
bass. Take One (Kick Shit Productions, Oly)
will be their promoting his up and coming
release on K Records. Dj Lux trOITl Sea ttle
will be spinning an eclectic blend of drulTI
and bass along with ICU 's Kento. ICU (K
Records) will also be performing their live
blend of hybrid funk at 9 p.llI. sharp in Red

awkward rites of

'" I wanted totalk
about
female
sexua lit y,"
she
con tinues. "I didn't
IVant it to be boring
feminism - I wanted
it to be fun and kind of punk rock ... Girls my
age and gi rls youn ger now deserve a cool teen
girl movie, but I wanted to make something
more truthful. It's a movie both guys and girls

("an like. Because I wanted guys to know what I
like sl'xually and what girls arc into. Cirls'
sexnality is so different from what yo u see in
the movies. Guys like it beca use th ey get the
scoop on women without havin g to ask
anybody. and girls like it because they see
themselves." jacobson adds. "I love goofy teen
movies ... In a way this is like this weird spawn
uflohn Waters and Prctty ill Pillk."
In spite of the
positive respo ns e including a run at the
prestigious Sund ance
Film Festival
jacobson encountered
some difficul ties. "I t
go t into a ton of
festivals , but it didn't
get
distribution
because people didn't
think there 'd be a
market for something
just for girls. They
were like, 'It's too bad
it's not a lesbian movie
because then we'd have
a built-in audience that
we don't have to pay
for advertising to
reach.' I just started
doing my own distribution, and I've been doing
it since March . It's actually been really
successful - every city we've gone to, people
have corne. We've averaged about 100 people

a show."
jacobson made the mm for $50,000 with
help from her friends and family. A number
of professional sound peopl e heard about
jacobson 's project and helped out. For
exa mple, the film was mixed at George Lucas'
Skywalker Sound Studios, and a number of
people there virtually volunteered to work on
it. When funds began to run short, jacobson
fOllnd finishing money from filmmaker
Tamara Davis (Half Baked, C84) and Kim
Gordon of Sonic Youth.
Although the film is not flawless , it's
captivating and often powerful. Lisa Gerstein
stands out as the title character, giving an
intimate and nuanced - not to mention brave
- performance. The film itself is intimate ,
almost claustophobic, and detailed enough to
have the feel of a documentary. It is explicit
and deals graphically with subjects such as
masturbation and backseatsex, but rarely does
so gratuitously. Mary jane 's Not a Virgin
Anymore is definitely worth catching while you
can - if only to see it before Jacobson mOves
on to making big mms.
Mary jane's Nol a Virgin Anymore is
headed to Seattle next week where it will screen
at the Grand Illusion. After that, it will play at
Cinema 21 in Portland. It has previously played
in Austin, Cleveland, Pittsburgh, Madison,
Iowa City, and Minneapolis. The film is
scheduled to run in New York City for a week
this October.
Be sure to see it!
