Loud, pure and simple,
More lan~ua2e than rhythm,
A word that can only be described by many words:
Ah, Ouch, Yes, Love
Which is to say the sound was more contemplation than act,
A yawn at the be~innin2 of existence.

~ear,

It is the rhythmic call of scurryin~ rodents, b,irds in flight, the movement of all beings:
human, animal, plants, wind, light, stone
As they whisper to the inherent.
This is the sound that I made,
As I swam towards your love,
No thou~ht to vocalization,
Just a moanin~/yearnin~ wrapped in breath.
Were you to have refused me,
The sound would have chan~ed to pain,
But instead, you drew me into your embrace with the same sound,
Tuned to the key of you.
I saw beauty in that sound,
Th-e:t deep ~uttural music that drifted from our lips.
Later, clasped in nakedness,
Our bodies completed the sound,
Echoing the intricacies,
Embellishin~ the melody,
Addihfl .trills, flourishes and resonance
To a conversation between Gods.
I saw heaven in that sound,
A world by which all creation
Hummed in unison,
Siniinll to the soul.

During their shifts, which could last 15 or l6 hours,
Huntsberry won't allow the students to put themselves in

But they'll carry walkie-talkies, Hunt sberry said, so they

After all the interviews are ove r, th e

this case, the sub-committee met several times
to discuss their recommendation, but didn't

didn' t come in with an unanim o us
recommendation, they came in with a sort of
split recommendation," explained Knapp.
After that, the sub-committee and th e
school's main hiring committee met to di scuss
who to hire. They also had several meetings
and talks with the academic deans before the
final recommendation to hire Hayes was made.
"It was an agonizing process in the sense
that we just had one job to offer and two very
good candidates to choose from," said Knapp.

students as they understood what the
qualifications were," said Knapp.
Brown's students just wish that their
voil:e could have been heard a little louder
and that Brown's experience would have
carried more weight with the committees.
They hope that by protesting this decision
that the school will re-evaluate how .they
reach decisions on whom to hire. "We want
the best possible resources available to us,
and as future animation and experimental
film students, Marge is the best resource
available," said Phoebe Owens, a graduating
student who had planned on taking a few
animation courses next year simply because
Brown was going to be here.
No students were part of the hiring sub·
committee and this is what really concerns
Brown's students. While the school does not
discourage students from being part of any
hiring sub-committee, it is often difficult to
get students involved for many reasons, said
Knapp. Mostly this is due to a lack ofstudent
interest, the time,(iemandsofbeillgon a subcom mittee and the lack of a good mechanism
for soliciting s~udents, he explained. This
dnes not mean they have never had students

They were eagerly appointed to sub

anomaly. "There is nothing again.$t it, but in

Knapp.
Brown's students hope to change this.
They will be petitioning today and will hav~
a rally about tlle situation at 12:3Q p.m. On

Still no guns for police'
Words and concepts keep Police Services unarmed
by Jeff Axel

Staff Writer
Worcjs and concep ts keep Police Service~
oHicE'r~ from being armed. Unti l Evergreen 's
Sta ndard Ope ratin g Procedures for Po li ce
(SOP)ma nual is co mpleted, officers won 't be
able to ca rry gUlls.
The group of Grceners that ori.ginally
designed the requirements for police arming
sa id that omrer~ had to read an Evergreen·
specific procedures manual and take a test to
prove that they understand the complica tions'
of bei ng armed in the Evergreen community.
The SOP is a manua l of all police
proced ures that our police officers will follow.
A similar manual guides the conduct of officers
in Washington. The SOP ou tlines procedures
like pursuit of sllspects, dealing with domestic
violence cases, shooting policies, even police
uniform requ irements.

Evergree n's conce pts team committee
that originally formed the arming process
decided that the Washington state SOP manual
was n't specific enough for Evergreen, They
wanted the manual to be changed to meet the
speCific needs of the Eve rgreen commu nity.
Po li ce Service s Director Steve
Huntsberry, the union that represents the
officers, and others are Mveloping the new
SOP at weekly meetings.
The manual contains language borrowed
from the University of Washington, Western
Washington Un iversity, and the Washington
police officer's SOP.
The group has bee n working on the SOP
for years, and it should be finished by this June.
The SOP is the last stage ofarming. Once
Po lice Services adopts the SOP, officers will be
ab le to access the 40 ca li ber Glocks when
needed.

Lou Heller is Evergreen's first officer to retire
by Jeff Axel
Staff Writer
He's been a cop for 37 years. After a
full career he is stepping down.
Lou Heller started his career working
for the Metro police in Washington D.C. He
retired from that job after 20 years.
He has been at Evergreen 'since 1980.
"It's been a part of my life for a long time,
but it is time to get out after so many years,
you know. My body is telling me to stop."
Heller will be the first officer to retire
from Evergreen. He is 65 years old. '
His most painful call at Evergreen came
in 1985 when a female student was fatally
shot in the cafeteria by a jealous boyfriend.
He remembers giving her CPR, but her
wounds were too severe and she was beyond

ariy help. This was the most serious call that
an Evergreen officer ever responded to.
Officer Bob McBride, who has worked
\)'ith Heller for four years said that when a
man walked into the Police Services office a
few years ago and attempted to sexually .
assault one of the dispatchers, Lou jumped
over the counter and threw the man off the
woman. McBride also said that Lou is strong
as a bull."lfI got into a dangerous situation ,
I'd want Lou standing next to me to slug it
out."
Heller's retirement plan includes a more
liberal sleep schedule and perhaps a Harley
to cruise on .
Lou HeUer's last,day of public service as
a police officer will be July 17, 1997.

Features Editor
For the 1997-1998 academic year, six
programs are listed in the Evergreen course
catalog under the heading of on-campus
Native American Studies. You may have
noticed that four of the programs have
faculty to be announced.
Last week on Monday, the school hired
three people, and last winter one person. to
fill these rQ,les in the fall of 1997. The new
faculty are Gary Peterson, Alan Parker and
Linda Moonstoinpf, and they will be new to
Evergreeen next year.
The students currently in programs for
Native American Studies, including Brian
Mooreland, one of the three co. coordinators of the Native Student Alliance,

are angry. David Whitener, the faculty who
coordinated the Native American Studies
program, retired June 1996, and kain er
Hostenstab, another faculty who lead the
program, retired last December.
Mooreland said that the Native
American Studies program is a stand·alone
program . All of the faculty who were
teaching for the 1997·1998 school year were
not primarily in the field of Native American
Studies, according to Evergreen 's course
catalog. Then the new employees came
along.
Last month, six Native American
Studies students met with Barbara Smith
Evergreen's provost. Smith says sh~
promised that Evergreen would hire
permanent faculty for the Native American

Evergreen Time:

Studies program for this Fall quarter.
Though the three new Native
American Studies faculty were hired , the
names of the faculty have not been
announced yet. They will teach in the Native
American Studies program «IMAGES :
Physical Speculations on Unknown
Conditions. "
Both Mooreland and Robert Guerrero,
a senior who talked with Smith, say that the
program needs cohesiveness and a
coordinatQr to head the group of faculty and
the overall program. Before Whitener and
Hostenstab retired .they were the
coordinators of the program. After last year,
a group offamity got together to fill the gap
in Native American Studies , such as ¥vonne
Peterson and David Rutledge, says

Guerrero. However, this gro up of faculty's
primary field is not Na ti ve American
Studies, he says.
Th e course cata lo g names Yvon ne
Peters.on as th e coordinator of Na ti ve
Am erican Studies. She was hired by
Evergreen as a Masters in Teaching fac ulty
member. She was asked by Whitener if she
would take over his job after his retirement ,
says Mooreland . However, she is not faculty
whose primary field is Native American
Studies.
Smith says th at Parker will take over
as the coordinator of Native Amer'ica n
Studies next fa ll. She knew th at Nati ve
American Studies st ud ents were wo rri ed
about th e permanent faculty for their
program.

campus clocks do their own thing

By David Scheer

Editor in Chief
On this campus you can leave the library at 1
o'clock, wa lk for a few minutes and arrive in A·dorm
at 1 o'clock.
That's because clocks in the library, the dorms
and other places on campus c,lon'(tell the same time.
At 1 o'clock in the library, it's 12:57 in A-dorm,
12 :59 in the Deli and 1:02 in the student activities
offices.
Who knows what time it is on Red Square? The
four clocks on the Clock tower are under repair.
It sounds like one of Einstein's dreams, but the
explanation is simple.
Many clocks, particularly those in classrooms,
are connected to a master clock at the central utility
plant. Unfortunately, some clocks in public areas, like
the ones in the CAB or in the dorms, are not on the
system and are set by the people who work nearby.
Some people don 't like the discrepancies.
Student Jacob Kostecka says that the clocks on
camp us throw him off. Jacob explains that sometimes
the clocks say he has plenty oftime to get to a meeting'
or class. So, he stops to talk to someone and ends up
late.
Others, like student Jonny Fink, !.ike the clocks
how they are, "It seems fitting for Evergreen," said
.
Jonny.
The clocks on the Clocktower should at least be
fixed soon , Bear Holmes of campus facilities says that
the Clocktower clocks have been worked on every day
for weeks. When one of the clocks is a few minutes off
it's because it was turned off for a bit wh il e being
repaired .
.
.
When the bugs are worked out and all the faces
tell the same time, it will be the first time the faces
have all worked at once in over decade.

Do we need a picture for this one folks? The sculptures
gracing our campus currently have hardly gone unnoticed. In
fact, I have been on campus for three days straight, no thanks
to final exams, and although I'm lacking sleep and can't imagine
taking on another job, I must stop to write this article. Are the sculptures enjoyable? Definitely. Students have
been very pleased with the added art which has sauced up the
bland landscape here. In fact, so many students have voiced
how well the pieces have been incorporated into the scenery
that they're asking, -"Did this happen on purpose?"
Sculptor/artist Manu Kingston, though swamped by
more than casual passers"by did manage a break for me to
satisfy my thirst for knowledge concerning these pieces. Some
of the sculptures have themes, some satisfy the artist's
expressions and still others are projects that could go on and
-on. So many students are asking questions and Kingston 's
barely able to get his work done before it's time to remove it
before graduation.
These Kingston originals were designed with primarily
raw material which met its fate in the monumental ice storm _
Operating out of his pocket, he has worked feverishly to erect
these statues to the celestial beings to satisfy his senior final
project.
.What do these structures.represent? ''I've incorporated
my studies at Evergreen,~ said Kingston , "in astronomy,
navigation; sailing, neon, wood class, etc.to illustrate influences
in reference to sailing. boats, stone circles (example:
Stonehenge) and added a touch of aliell influence, hoping work
to look as If it were made by ancient civilizations. The piece
on the hill, entitled 'Solar Navigation,' is about balances. It
represents the constellation Cancer, my sign. It seeks balance
between weather and the Sun. The world/sun on one side and
winter/us on the other." The piece in front of the lectui-e hall
incorporating steel. neon. wood, glass and water has no theme,
and is an ongoing project, as well as the sculpture in front of
the library where six carved wood pinnacles surround a larger
_.
.
pinnade bearing a hole.
Another sculpture by Kingston, found between the Lab
building and the Lecture hall, represents cycles of the moon.
"This sculpture work represents some of the finer art I've seen

here on campus," says student Leonard Leimbach.
The project is expected to show until next Thursday when
Arnaldo Rodriguez, head of graduation ceremonies. wants the
art removed so that people can sit on the ground where the art
is currently.
Students are asking Manu why his sculptures must be
removed so qUickly or at all! Students are concerned about art
lacking on campus. Manu explained to students that although
Pete Ramsey has stated that, though the school is trying to form
an art committee, we should not get our hopes up, because
things don't happen so quickly around here.
Kingston has even volunteered to donate his work to the
school but donations aren't accepted because there's no one to
receive them. There's also the problem of having funds
established to maintain the sculptures in the future. Student
Kristin Pierce lamented, "It won't be up for graduation? Too
bad it will be gone, I wi·sh it could be up forever, it's such great
art." And student Stephanie Barnett adds, "Definitely needs
to stay. Nice additions here and there, love the neon site."
As Kingston was putting the fina l touches on the neon
sculpture site, he warmly spoke of how facilitating staff have
. been with him, parti(ularly head of grounds, Cliff Hepburn.
Kingston relayed that Cliff, "has been a nice guy about all this,
supp ortive, prOViding concrete and diggiqg holes." The
students appreciate the efforts put into this diverse array of
spontaneous art that just seemed to spring up one day. It is a
sad note that no sooner did this great happening art project
get started than its going to end.
"I think students should be able to display their art on
campus." says student Ginny Vanscoy, and another student,
Rebecca Trachtenberg fe lt th at the sc ul pture s should .
"Definitely be up fo r graduation ." Kingston . alt hough
graduating this quarter, will be staying around the Olympia area
through the summer working on other projects.

here is the low down from the last BOT meeting. The
budget was presented. This is the budget the legislature
gives the college. Overall we made out well. Most of

employees of Evergreen may need to consider. State
employees may not engage in political activities. This
means while you are on the clock, you may not engage
in political ac tivity. The rental rate increases were
approved for Housing's wiring project. Most of the
discllssion happened at the previous meeting.
There wa s an executiv e session. It involved
discussion around a special charge for Jane this summer.
The board ha s charged her wi th writing a paper.
Unfortunately I wa s di stracted when the charge was
de scribed , th erefore I missed the exact topic . It
concerned liberal arts higher education.
Th e next meeting isjune 12. a Thursday! Since the
trustees will be here for graduation. they moved the
meeting. This was my last meeting; Nick and Bryan will
take over from here. I thoroughly enjoyed my time
worki ng with the Board. I will miss being involved with
the globa l picture of Evergreen.
I am disappointed by how little students contacted
me this year. I understand everyone was busy with
studies. but I didn 't feel utilized. I wan t to thank those
who did approac h me with concerns. Quite often they
weren't board issues, but I hope my referrals helped.
If you are interested in finding out more about the

.The politics of men's pain
When I talk to men on this campus about gender
issues generally they have no idea that this could involve
men. In fact. there is a growing number of men around
the country who are beginning to look at the possibility
ofthere being men 's issues. Unfortunately most ofthese
men blame women .. especially feminists, for a lot of
men's pain. In other words they believe women can,
and sometimes do, oppress men. This theory simply
doesn't hold water because women as a group in this
society don't have the power to hold men to anything.
Men oppressing boys and other men is a more common
occurrence. As children mostly but throughout life,
boys and men threaten and attack each other for acting
like "sissies" "queers" or "girls." The fear generated by
being the target of or seeing someone else be the target
of such attacks scars most men for life. The line of
thinking that becomes ingrained goes something like
this. Since I have a penis I can do nothing that might
make people think I am in anyone of the above
categories because, if I am, then I am not a real man,
and being a real man is the ultimate goal for my life.
Being a "man" adds so many expectations of roles to
fill that do nothing but deaden men's senses to the pains
ofan oppressive society. Ifbeing a man meant only that
I was a human with a penis and a slightly (not enough
to make excuses for anything over) different hormone
balance, and manhood was learning how to live with
these things responsibly as a human in the world, then
I would have no problem striving for it.
Unfortunately, this is not the case. Men have
inherited a legacy of violence and with it comes the
responsibility to speak and act against it. I see a lot of
angry feminists out there who are blaming men, even
at Evergreen, for the situation that they are in and to
tell you the truth they have every right to do that. They
should be angry until every man is speaking out against
the violence that men do, and do with regularity here
on campus, to act out their manhood: The next time
you see a women avoid making eye contact with you
because you are a man think ofall the rapes that happen
every day that keep women in constant fear for their
safety. Women should be angry at every man who
_

doesn't take up his inborn , penile responsibility to
speak up against men's violence. If you take offense at
what feminists say about men then you probably aren't
doing enough to combat your and societies sexism. Just
remember, ifyou aren't a part of the solution, you are a
part of the problem.
This may sound scathing and blaming but I
be.lieve it is true. I also have a lot of compassion for men'
and our situation .. Many men want to help but don't
know how or are not at a: point in their lives where they
can speak out. Most men remain scarred by the
constant threat of violence they experienced as ch ildren
from family and friends if th ey didn't fit into what was
expected of them as boys. (Fitting into this paradigm
is also a form of violence against oneself.) It is this
training that has created the non-responsive men that
are here now. To start a process of healing one must be
around people who care more for your humanness than
your manl in ess. Listen to women to hear how
manliness hurts them in their everyday lives AND let
the.m know you 've heard and understood what they say.
Change the way you act to reflect what you have learned.
Not only will you gain the respect ofthe women around
you, but the changes made lead to great personal
healing. Finally revel in the freedom of not haVing to
pretend to be a "real man. "

subject or want to hear more about the men's group (

AI Joison got dreadlocks now
(Dedicated to white folks with dreadlocks)
Dear Mr. and Mrs. Aljolson
I 'm going to com municate in m, own tongue. If you
don't understand what I'm speaking find a translator, Please
excuse my english cause Iain't from England and Iain't never
been. Be more concerned with the message not the grammar.
And if your pissed off after reading this then I've hit a nerve,
I know how much the truth and reality offends you folks.
I had this crazy dream letme tell you about it. It happen
here at Evergreen State College. Evergreen's black population
became the dominant. It was 58% black. It seem as some
sort of conference was going on. There 'was a competition
going on, it seemed like a white dreadlock slapping contest.
It was a weird dream there were teams from different black
colleges, There was a banner in which under thethese dreads
werestanding. The banner read "Culturally Deprived". There
were three categories, there was Grateful Dread, there was
Trustafarian. and Dreadneck. Grateful Dread category were
really lazy dead heads very' non-genic and loves
hallucinagenics
Impostorfarian/Trustafarian as th ey are called suffers
from wannabeism/pseoudism. They feel guilty about the
family wealth and often pretends he or she's oppressed. They
usually like non-message Pop reggae and often speak with
phoney Jamaican accents.
Their ultimate goal is one day become a black person
and donate their trust to the NAACP (psyche).
The Dreadneck category were the most non-hygienic
and usually has afoul odor. (Uhhh) they are usually the most
non·rhythmic but love to drum. The drumming some how
makes him feel indigenous. Imagine that, Europeans
wanting to be savages. They like pretending to be someone
else. All three groups lack R-E-S-P-E-CT for black people or
our cul ture, They are really good at rationalizing and
pretending. They lack respect for black culture rooted in pain
and struggle from slavery and racism.
You can't pretend to be a part of something your not.

Hey being on welfare doesn't make you oppressed. It seems
to me looking back on history white folks have never
respected anyone's human rights or culture. Black culture
seem to be more of a novelty or fad to you_ Why do you like
pretending or acting so much? You've even pretended to be
Indians and some of you are still pretending. Aren't you
proud of being white?
Black culture is sacred to a lot of people (especially me)
and dreadlocks are a part of black culture. Dreadlocks are
symbol of the chains of the oppressors and we know who
that's in reference to.
Back to the dream that ain't about going to the
mountain. The competition was big it was like black
olympics being held in Dc.. The crowd was chanting "give
us back our culturel," and "you ain't paid your duesI" It was
considered just good clean fun and proceeds went to black
charities. You scored points in with a variety of slaps and
techniques, Some of the dreads were told it was a initiation
to becom~ an honorary blackman, others were told it was a
part of an independent contract The Wonderful World of
Being a Black Man.
The populations of white dreads had decreased and
to think of all that money your folks wasted on therapy. The
part-time and closet black folks (no sexual connotation
intended) were out. Even the biracial black folks were now
claiming to be black and proud~ Shit Umoja membership
quadrupled along with it's budget. Imagine that, oh what a
difference the day makes,
There were a handful protester that decided to disperse
after being given the option to take the place of the white
dreads: Some protesters screamed we were being
xenophobic, same ole bullshit that they told the Native
Americans and Africans just before the white man stole their
land and dignity after he discovered it.
There were three judges, Malcolm X, Farrakan and
Angela Davis, There was entertainment scheduled during
each intermission. Last Poets with West African drummers,

Public Enemy with the original members minus Flava Flav,
Malcolm Spoke, James Brown and Curtis Mayfi~ ld. It was
all black music everything we created. Rock n Roll, Funk,
Blues,Jazz, Hip-Hop, Reggae and R& B. This was some sort
of three day festiva Ilcompetion.
Umm the smell of collared greens, barbee que ribs, fried
chicken black eyed peas, sweet potato pie and chilled
watermelons. Fuck Fuzzy and Tiger too. Shit I was in heaven .
In the dream I ended up being MVP raising over 3
million dollars for charity.. I woke up from the dream, for
some reason I was paranoid of head lice.
This may sound more like a nightmare to some. There
goes the neighborhood,
So what's up you live in the ghetto a week and you're
ready to write a book. My Life As a Negro by Leonard
Berstein. If that ain't an ego, what is?
This is something I've often thought about. In LA there
is a dress code for gangsta and others. Bloods don't like blue
and Crips don't like red, You can get your cap peeled for
wearing the wrong colors, its considered a sign ofdisrespect.
What if black gansta took pride in being. black as much as
they do in being gangsta. What if they took as much pride in
unifying as we do in separating from each other. What if
instead of smoking each other we got into protecting each
other. Think white folks would respect blacks more? Think
white folks would get checked about wearing dreads and
pretending to be black.
A lot of Black Folks talk about it behind your backs,
but me, I, don't give a fuck. I'll let your bubblehed ass know.
The emperor has no clothes and he's got a pimple on his ass.
Can you relate? I'd love to see you get your punk asses
checked on it.
Don't you think you've stolen and exploited enough?
Flipping the script for a minute.
Congratulation, Love and Peace and all that other good shit.

Barbecue not meant to offend
In response to Vita Lusty, Chris Dixon, Clayton
Hibbert, and Ia nya Cheeke regarding Evergreen
Students For Meat:
I opened the new CPJ this week and to my
as tonishment found a letter concerning the
barbecue we held in Red Square in the beginning
of May. After reading this letter ( feel that a
response is necessary. The following will address
each accusation and issue chronologically.
The title of the letter referred to our li ttle
event as a "Barbecue and Prank." In Webster's
New World Dictionary a prank is defined as "a
mischievo us trick." In the planning of this
barbecue I do not remember planning to trick
anybody, let alone mischievously trick anybody.
If! was to run up and kick somebody in the shin
that wou ld be a prank. Having a barbecu e is not
a prank.
The letter accused us of mocking " the
traditional vegetarian image that Ev~rgreen has."
I was persona lly unaware that our school had a
traditiona l vegetarian image_ The majority of
our student body is not vegetarian and probably
unaware of this obscure traditional image.' In my
mind a college should be viewed traditionally as
a p lace of learning and knowledge, not as
vegetarian.
The letter stated that the
chicken feet PRANK (see above)
was probably a promotion for the
barbecue. When you have a
vegan/vegetarian potluck do you
randomly hang turnips around
campus? If you regularly read the
publication your letter appeared
in you should have come across
the front page article concerning
the chicken feet. In that article the
two stude nts ·r esponsible stated
. that the chicken feet had nothing to do wi th the
barbecue and apo logized for a ny confusion .
Mind you that article was on the front page and
we only made the 6th page. Coi ncidenta lly I was
the guy in the picture with the chef's hat on.
Quote: "We wonder if Police Services would
care if something like aborted fetus were strung
throughout campus?" This statement is
completely and totally ludicrou s. It is one of the
sickest and most demented analogies I have ever
come across. Where exactly does a thought like
this come from? People were offended by the
chicken feet alone, and since we had nothing to
do with them this item will receive no more
attention.
You state that by eating meat we destroy our
body, people in third world countries, the
rainforest and the rest of the environment. Kids,
yo ur ancestors have been consuming meat for
thousands and thousands of years _ Four billion
people can't be wrong. True or False: people are
animals. Animals h ave been eating other
animals for millions upon millions of years. Try
convincing a lion that in eating meat he is
destroying his ' body. Yes, without the
domestication of animals we would still be living
in caves and under rocks. They were needed not
only for food but labor to raise crops . Even
before the domestication of animals our
ancestors were running across the plains with
long pointy sticks trying to take down woolly
mammoths and giant sloths. Furthermore, I
think our barbecue is the last thing on the minds
of people in third world countries. Something
tells me when one of them gets shot by the
soldie ~ of a military regime the last thought to
dance through their head is not "Damn those
meat eaters, this is all their fault"" This is,
however, only a theory.
Quote: "Perhaps this just isn't about the

promotion of meat but abo ut the attention that
this group of foul individuals can no longer
receive from their mommies and d addies back
home." My god, you are correct !! This whole
thing was about my paren ts not loving me!! Why _
didn't I see this before, thank you so much!! In
fact I was raised in a perfectly normal household
in a perfectly norm al area and have bee n given
the perfectly normal amount of attention by my
slightly abnormal parents to this day. Mind yo u,
my mother and my younger sister are both
vegetarian. Of course any add ition al attention
won' t hurt. so please write more letters. r do
however know plenty of vegetarians who come
from completely dysfunctional households and
still live off mommy and daddy. I may eat meat,
but at least I pay for it myself
Quote: "What are you people going to do
next? Gay bashing in Red Square, Evergreen Ku
Klux Klan , or how about the ir own little
fraternity where they can drink beer and hara ss
people who are different from them all they
want! " Honestly I was planning to wear my sheet
but after the last Klan rally I put it in the wash,
the red marker I used to draw the gian t swastika
on the back bl ed all over and turn ed the entire
thing pink, even my pointy li ttle hat! Come on
peop le, this is a ridiculous

several vegetarians present with their own

The Soul ofAsia brings epic s~ories to life
The Soul of Asia is an elaborate
celeb ration of Asian music, dance, and theatre
performed by the students and facu lty of The
Evergreen State College. This eve ning will
include some of the musical, dance, and
th ea trical traditions of China, India, and
Indonesia: se lected works from three major
Asian epics and l~gends will form the highlight
of the evening. Two of the featured performers
are Chapala Mishra, acclaimed Orissi dancer
from India, and Cao Chen, Chinese opera
professionals from Beijing; both are :ldjullct
fac ulty at TESC.
.
The performance is June 'S, 6, and 7 in the
Experimental Theater at B p.m. Admission is
$5: tickets are on sale now at the Bookstore and
at Rainy Day Records . They will also be
ava ilable at the door.
The first section of the performance will
exp lor e th e three separate tradit ions of
Indonesian music, Orissi dance of India. and
Chinese Opera. Using live and recorded music.
E\'ergreen students will showcase th e work

that they have focused on for the entire school
year by presenting musical pieces, dances and
sele cted sto ries . In a unique series of
co mbinations of the three traditions, the '
second half of the performance will include
selections from The Ramayana and The
Mahabharata. These selections ofOrissi dance
and Chinese Opera will use Indonesian music
from the Sun danese region of Java to
accompany dancing, battles, and laments; the
three ensembles used will include gamelan
degung(gong orchestra), kagpi-suling(zitherand-flute ensemble), and angklung bunds
(t uned bamboo rattles and drums). Such a
combination of musical, dance , and theatrical
styles has never before been attempted in the
Un ited States or anywhere else, and represents
a unique collaborative effort in the creation of
new choreography and compositions to fit the
occasion.

through Saturday in the Experimental Theater

The Tears ofRahwana:
Th e Hindu epic known as The
Ramayana is well-known throughout most
of South and Southeast Asia. In this unusual
performance, performers will combine
music from the Sundanese area ofIndonesia
with Orissi dance and Chinese opera. The
epic is often broken down in performance
into a se ri es of short segments. In this
section, Sintawati (Sita, performed by.
Chapala Mishra) has been kidnapped by the
evil god-king, Rahwana (Ravana, performed
by Cao Chen). In the rescue ofSintawati by
Rama (performed by Akira Takin aga) ,
Rahwana receives a fatal blow. He then goes
home to his wife. Banondari (Mandodari ,
performed by Ratna Roy). He calls her to
apologize in tears for having been driven by
fate to abductSintawati; in her despair, she
pleads for him not to die. After his death ,
Banondari performs a lam~nt as she waits
in vain for Rahwana's return.

The Mahabharata:
This performance includes two scenes
from The Mahabharata, one danc ed to
Sundanese gamelan music and one with
classical music of Orissa. The first scene will
include selections from the Bhagavad Gi ta,
with Chapala Mishra in the role of Krishna
and Ratna Roy as Aij una. and Orissi dance
students in various other roles. The second
scene is a dramatic dialogue between Kunti ,
the mother ofKarna, and Kama, on the eve
of battle when she first discloses her iden tity

The Water Battle:
The Water Battle, choreographed and

Snake are both powerful snake spirits who
have assumed the human forms of beautiful
women. In this episode near the end of the
story, White Snake's human husband has
been abducted by a Buddhist abbot of the
Golden Mountain Temple. In her effort to
rescue her beloved, she summons the army
of water creatures to help her fight the
heavenly generals and warriors aroused by
the Buddhist abbot. Many beautiful dancelike individual and group movements are
displayed in this symboLic battle between
heaven and earth, between the sacred and
the secular, and between the masculihe and
feminine energy; in addit ion, some

Summer blockbuster.roundup
by J. Brian Pitts
CP J movie slave

With The Lost World: Jurassic Park having
stomped all previous box .office records tor opening
weekend grosses, it could be said that the winner for
the summer has already arrived. However, with lessthan-positive word of mouth and afifty percent drop
in grosses between it's opening and sophomore
weekends, there's the potential for a dino-toppler to
emergefromJune'sfour weekends (with six potential
100 million plus blockbusters spread between them).
While that may initially look great, it's
grouping like that which_illuminates this summer's
greatest problem: too many big films. Audiences, fed
up with increasing ticket prices, may choose to skip
out on consecutive weekends of opening, saving it
up for one or two big. distinctive hits. Sut what will
th.ose hits be? All the previews are looking m.ore or
less the same, with only a few stand.outs.
Another problem audiences face is the
p.ostponement .of s.ome eagerly anticipated titles.
Several titles have been pushed back, either by
incomplete special effects or because they lost the
game of chicken that is film release scheduling.
Gattica is nowhere to be found, Alien Resurrection,
Starship Troopers, :lI1d Mortal Kombat 2, all
expected t.o be summer c.ontenders, have been
pushed back t.o November, and James Camer.on's
wildly overbudget Titanic is set for a potentially
disastrous December nineteenth opening.

summer season. The important stuffis what there is

Up The Wall; surreal teen angst fantasy'is the best movie of the decade
by Bryan Frankeseuss Theiss
CPJ hack two years running

I face a real challenge here because Up
The Wall is the kind of film that is almost
impossible to describe in words. Someone once
said that "writing about music is like dancing
about architecture." and the same could
probably be said about film at its best. Words
like quirky. lyrical, beautiful and moving are
awkward stabs at describing the profound
qualities ofEphram Conroy's new film. which
is definitely the best film I have seen so far in
the ·90s.
Perhaps a better word than "quirky"
would be "bizarre," because Up The Wall is a
unique kind of film that one would be hard
pressed to accurately compare to anything that
has come before it. Its path from Hollywood
dream to reality could be described mildly as
unorthodox - it is a miracle. and a testament
to the power of art, that this film was actually
made. When it first went into production a few
years ago it created a stir in the educational
community as the biggest budget driver's ed
film in history. Conroy's reputation as director
of the unforgettable 1992 sci-fi flick Robot
Mummy and sc ript docto r on Kenneth
Branagh's Osca r-nominated Hamlet attracted
a $30- million studio investment and a dream
cast. Sid ney Poitier reportedly worked fo r free

My Best Friend's Wedding -Julia Roberts flails for a

been smarter to go against Speed 2. but it will make
at least 65 million from people looking for an
antidote to June's testosterone overdose.

Hercules· Disney fluff. The kids will go wild. James

for adults. 150 million. unless the songs are as
un memorable as last year's Hunchback of Notre

95 million.
face/Off· John Travolta and Nicholas Cage in a new
John Woo film . This film. which has the unfortunate
position of being stuck between a cash cow and an
upstart with a great preview, will earn far below it's
potential. despite it's killer preview and massive
potential. 60 million (sniff, sob).

Conspiracy Theory· Julia Roberts wants a hit, take

Like The Taste of Wine
by D.M.Carr

JuneS, 1997

Chicken headed at the head of the street
Where are your wings
The kind that are so cheap?
What a beak sits upon your head
The attendance of souls
Reveal an innocence
Covered by the smallness
Of a city in complete and utter despair
At 8:09 he takes off as we
Synchronize our time pieces
For the Master to get back
Do I have a chaser?
You may ask in bold terms
I leave the masses comprised
Behind in bitter dust
They mean nothing to me
Unless someone struck a chord
Perhaps a nerve of sexual energy
Or I try the orange beverage
I consume the arrangements
Of the importance that is circular
It revolves around the green fields of the land
Relax, or I'll back you up
The sounds of a crunching crunch
Produced by mastication of broken and healthy
Bones that move up and down
The feeling of disgust
And of household maintenance
Worry about the intake
Laugh about the outcome
This product satisfies
Even if it makes guilt harder to
I need another or I'll die
Bring me c onsumption of any kind
To make this mind and body
Healthy and strong
I reach for ample sin
Think about the end, then I don't
It gets to be stranger
Yet to understand takes mistakes
To mistake takes practice
To practice takes time
It can be awfully sublime
Repeating the same guitar l ine
Shots go down
Liquids do too
Drawing the line between fuckedupness
.,
. .
and Captain Kangaroo
The music distorts
It eases the mind

A filthy World

By D.M.Carr

over

Hysterical laughter runs rampant when I'm sitting in a car
Looking over the cliH of the Slab down onto the Rose Bowl
Trying to see the stars through the smog. I am with four
Individuals that don't have to be in this car because for
Nine Months out of the year they only appear in my heart
The laughter is more predominant here 'cause I've known
#n.,.. These gentlemen, as jaded as me, for quite a number of years
~ • The night moves on, a waterfall of Natural Ice goes down,
We share it all, return to my home, sneak by the parents
The golden arches call to us, but there are much DIOre
Satisfying when the arches tur"n into an arrow. This is where
we fill our hearts and hunger with the drive through action
at In N' Out Burger. The page was answered the call returnecl
We wondered who would score with her next, did one of us have
A chance? We went to work, she called me a jerk, but she was
Being the bitch. So after that we got in the back, and you
were thinking about sex. You see people can't comprehend the
QuaUty of life wbere everything is open way past midnight.
The sky may be brown and my lungs may be black, but they didn't
Get that way by smoking chains of neverencling cigarettes. So
I will partake in these actions this summer again, and I look
Forward to seeing aU of my crazy friends.
Whether watching the fight .or swimming in a pool
Maybe this time we'll break all the rules

Strum! out on morphine and cigarettes.
Smelling like a tuna fish sandwich.
Wet behind the ears.
HairY on the chin.
Runs a thumb across your lips.
Yet doesn't know where to begin.
Wordless quotes from a mindless fool.
You push his thoughts from his mind.
Nails bitten to the quick.
Addicted to a love-lost.
There's nothing to him but a gap-toothed smile.
life's an easy game to play.
Even easier to lose.
Bruised hearts. broken minds.
Anything to latch on to.
Empty stomachs. rotting carcassesStench of blood and cigarette stubs permeate
A filthy world.
Dim sunshine throm!h broken glass.
bBood from thorns held tightly in a clenched fist.
Birds call- scavengers they're all •••
Tippi-toes with a two-step partner.
ErimY hands was dirtier faces.
Cold mashed potatoes. congealed gravy:
A thanksgiving dinner for the unloved and unwantedGoing nowhere. which is exactly where we came from.

St.el Cross February 13 - The three dimensional
steel cross on top of the informational kiosk was
neither a religious moniker, nor an antenna for
distant aliens. Actually it was a sculpture by
Richard Gorgone, ending up on top of the kiosk
after being displayed for a short time at Visitation
and even making an appearance on the grassy knoll.
Richard was tired of.storing the sculpture in his
living room. It has since wandered away from the
kiosk.
Confession

a'

February 20 - Room 12 in the

. basement of the CAB was dubbed the confessional
by KAOS volunteers back in the early '90s. Michael
Huntsberger says people first started referring to it
as the. "Confessional" during KAOS's temporary
relocation to this room , Supposedly, when
programmers conducted on-the-air interviews in
this room, the cramped quarters gave interviewees
the feeling they were at confession.
129 March 13 -The Super Saturday volunteers are
responsible for this odd numbering of the Library
perimeter. They used these markings to give the
locations for the various booths. Darn, there goes
the theory that the distances were actually a new
measurement system based on the average height
of a bigfoot.

. far better things.

Pentagram ApriJ 10 - No one
into contact with has any idea why there is a
pentagram on the roof of the Library Building.
Someone suggested that it might be the base of
some kind Of plant holder, my guess that is that it
is yet another student art project gone haywire.
Directions April 17 - I'm guessing that
the direction markers in the basement of
the Library are a leftover prop from a play
or something to that effect, however
nobody has been able to confirm it. For
. all I know, it could have been the original
entrance sign to Evergreen.
Missing Scu'ptu. April 24 - The
sculpture on the bridge between the CAB
and the CRC was removed because the
powers that be were afraid that someone
might poke their eye out or arm or leg or
tongue on the sharp rebar poking out
from the disintegrating cement
sculpture. It has since self-destructed and
moved to Evergreen's dumping ground.

C'ock Tower May 1 - The Clock Towe r
was fixed with a bit of creativity. They
hooked all of the hands to a single motor
so they now work. Boo hoo. Four-twenty
only four times a day (the north face is
still a little bit off).

Demon Scu'ptu. May 8 - The odd
photo by Gary Love

The broken remains of the former CAB-CRC bridge
sculpture lies heapE'd next to a pile of brick. According
to Evergreen's building maintenance manager Clint
Steele, every effort was made to contact the artist.

branch sculpture behind the Library
building was placed there by Bradley
McDeV1j.tt (a designer for las.t years
cyberpunk-rocking version of McBeth).
l:Ie has since graduated and moved onto

Dog House May 15 - Fifa the dog is the unofficial

Greener soccer mascot, not an invisible pet that I
had imagined it to be. Evidently, Fifa is owned by
Jason Baumgardt and Cam ill e Morga n (both
Greener soccer geeks) and Fifa has been chasing
soccer balls for years with them. Fezdak made Fifa's
home behind the CRe.

Head May 22 - The head han ging from the
branches above the organic farm trail is most likely
the result of Evergreen's wacky and weird art
students .. .. .. or maybe th ere is an un offic ia l
Evergreen Students for Voodoo group starting up
on campus?
Oil f)eadlinesMay 29 - Joe Pollock is just about
to place another slash through the number 6 and
add a 7. However, according to Jill Lowe this may
be the last year that he has to make the trek out to
behind the campus, beca use hopefully the project
will be finished by this summer. I li p I lip Ilooray!
Fezdak Water, former student/lo cal
leg~nd/greener mythical figure,
claims responsibility for all why's.
However, he pointed out to me that
there used to be hundreds of
Oklahoma dragon heads and
"embrace the nothing" signs.
Actually he doesn't remember
anything .... ever. But he might
remember sometime in the future.
Watch out for those wiretaps.
Actually Fezdak claims
responsibility for absolutely
nothing.

Editor's note regarding Security Blotter
The editors of the Cooper Point
Journal recently noticed that almost every
week some sort of event was noted in the
Security Blotter as having occurred at either
at 0420 or at 1620. We became suspicious
of the occurrences and looked into the
matter.
To our surprise, no record of events
like "campus becomes serene, happy place;

everyone's nice to each otller" were recorded
in the logbook at Police Services. They were
made up by the Security Blotter editor,
Cameron Newell.
We were also flabbergasted to learn that
the times 0420 and 1620 are synonymous
with 4:20 a.m. and 4:20 p.m., as well as the
number 420, a number which in certain
(undesirable) circles refers to marijuana

smoking. As you know from our comics page,
the (PJ editors do not endorse drug use. We
do not duse rugs either.
It concerns us that Mr. Newell may have
lead everyone to believe we smoke pot on the
CP] balcony. Here the herbs of choice are
tobacco and parsley. It also concerns us to
hear people have been rolling their marijuana
cigarettes with pieces of paper torn out of the

security blotter.
Cameron Newell will be dealt with.
We plan to use every means available to us
to encourage him to enroll in a'iocal DARE
Program over the summer that he may learn
about the negative aspects of "pot."
Sincerely,
David Scheer
