coach quits

By Trevor Pyle

Staff Writer
Aaron Foy, a transfer student from
Tacoma Community College, planned to play
basketball on Evergreen's team next season.
He thought James Hammond, who had played
basketball with Foy in various summer leagues
and recruited him to play for Evergreen, would
be his coach.
So Foy was as surprised as anyone else on
Monday, May 13, when Hammond called a
meeting. Hammond, assistant coach John
Barbee, and several prospective players attended.
The meeting was held in the evening, and
the attendees crowded into Hammond's small
office. Then Hammond told them he was
quitting.
"A t first I was shocked," Foy said. "The first
thing I thought was, how's [Hammond) going to
have me come up here and then leave?"
At the meeting, Hammond said that
options had come up, that he had to make a
decision, and that he had decided to leave.
Hammond could not be reached for

comment, but Pete Steilberg said that those
options included three job offers in
administrative education. Steilberg is
Evergreen's director of recreation, wellness,
and athletics.
"The offers were lucrative, compared to
coaching basketball," Steil berg said.
Besides building the basketball program
this year, Hammond also worked as the
interim assistant principal at Bethel High
School.
"You can't knock a guy for taking care of
his family," Foy said.
After that meeting, all the recruits met.
"At first everyone was in shock," Foy said.
"But then we asked; what ifUNLV wanted you
[to play basketball)? They play on television
every week. Would you stay?"
Now the coach of Evergreen's first team
will be John Barbee, who was assistant coach
under Hammond. Barbee, who has coached
junior varsity at Cornell University, was also
surprised by the announcement, but wasn't
surprised by Hammond's reasons.
"[Coaching) is a love, a passion," Barbee
said, "but there is a big picture. He had a new
family [Hammond and his wife just had a son!.
and new opportunities:'
As for new opportunities, Barbee has one
himself; he will be the coach for Evergreen's
first season.
.
"How do I feel?" he asked. "A little
overwhelmed, a little excited. I knew I would
have this opportunity soon, but this happened
a little quick."
.
As for Aaron Foy, while he was surprised
that Hammond left, he doesn't doubt Barbee's
abilities.
'Tm happy for him, " Fay said. "He's
young, and to be thrust into this situation ... "
He shakes his head. "It'll be good for him,
because it's going to be the first year, and we're
going to have nothing to lose."

Clllllputer terminals aJ'd an enhanced crossret erencing computer program.
Steve Metcalf. th e Library 's systems
manager. is installing th e computers and the
user-friendly indexes. He said the goal is to help
sludents get comprehensive information in a
format that makes sense.
To simplify using Library computers, 30
Ga teway PCs have been order~d. These
computers will run WindowsNT and
Microsoft Internet Explorer, two graphical
interface programs that allow students to see
their search. The Gateways will replace the old
green-screen terminals and should be installed
mid-summer.
New computer terminals, however, are
not enough. To make research more
productive, an enhanced version of the current
system t4at indexes the Library resources will
be installed.
Metcalf said that some users don't know
card catalog lingo and tend to type in incorrect
terms that aren't approved by the Library of
Congress. The old system has limitations and
can't forgive a untrained user.
The new system is designed to get termchall enged users around the language barrier

to find the resources they want. For example,
if a student is doing a project and looks up
Yellowstone National Park, the old system
would offer only what is listed under
Yellowstone National Park. This is because the
original indexing system can't process beyond
the terms it was given . For information related
to Yellowstone that is listed under another
term, like 'Wyoming,' Wyoming would have to
be typed in. The new system will crossreference the original term with other terms to
offer more options like 'Wyoming,' 'Grand
Tetons,' 'Old Faithful,' or 'thermal bacteria.'
This saves users the hassle and guesswork
associated with thinking up the right terms.

Author search. Take Samuel Clemens. He is
much better known by his pen name Mark
Twain. There is one reference listed under
'Samuel Clemens.' Conversely, 'Mark Twain'
lists 131 references. If a user didn't know to
look under Mark Twain and was. using the old
system, he or she would be stuck. Using the
new system, typing in Samuel Clemens would
make the computer suggest a search under
Mark Twain to point the user in the right

The new cross-referencing system should

The money for t his project came from the

.

Washington State legislature as grant money
for college library improvements. The cost for
the computers was $60,000 and the new search
engine will cost about $30,000.
The Library'S computer system came
from Innovative Interfaces, a Cal iforni a
company that prOvides computerized indexing
services to over 600 libraries worldwide. The
new cross-referencing system was written by
WLN, a Lacey company.
The Unix computer that runs the
Library's indexes is a Digital Alpha 4-200 and
is the size of two short file cabinets. It has over
eight gigabi tes of information in it, runs un two
190Mhz processors and has 256MB of RAM.

"Retiring faculty receive honor" and in the cutline below the

Correction for
summer class
This summer, part-time faculty
Nancy Parkes Turner will teach a
four-credit class called «Medicine
Words: Our Own Sacred Stories." It
will take place on Tuesdays and
Thursdays from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m.,
June 23 through July 26.
Despite interest, students
planning to attend summer school
did not sign up for Turner's class at
the Academic Fair because they
thought the class would meet on
Saturdays from 9 a. m. to 5 p.m.,
Turner said,
Turner found that "The
Summer Times" catalog distributed
during the Academic Fair said that
the class would also be held
Saturdays from 9 a,m. to 5 p,m, That
was a misprint. The class will meet
only Tuesdays and Thursdays.

Editor in Chief
In case you hadn't heard, next
year's tuition costs more.
At Evergreen it will cost four
percent more across the board, That
means you will pay $33 more per
quarter for in-state undergrad
tuition and $1l6 more per quarter
for out-of-state undergrad tuition.
The increase was settled on by
the legislature at the end of last
month, Student lobbyists for
Washington 's four-year public
institution s report that they are
satisfied with the raise. The four
percent increase is smaller than
other amounts suggested during
this last legislative session.
An additional $375,000 was
set aside for need and merit-based
student loans for .washington
students and may help to offset the
increased burden . Evergreen has
not yet been told how much of that
money its students will see.

Public comment is invited at the hearing. Written
c~mment is also welcome and should be submitted by
5:00 pm, May 27, 1997, to the President's Staff Offic;e
(Ubrary 3103). The revisions to the Access to Public
Records provisions are primarily related to clarifying the
timelines for request(s) and office to which request(s)
should be directed. The revisions to the Organization
provision are primarily related to meeting times for the
Board of Trustees. And, the revisions to the
implementation of the State Environmental Policy Act
has to do with adding a new section stating that the
college shall comply with the State Environmental Policy
Act. The repeal of the Mid-Contract Termination with
Adequate Cause and Tuition and Fees proviSions
remove them only frc;>m the WAC, but they are still part
of the college's Policy and Procedures Manual.

First. Smith wrote that the "insidious little IDarwinl icon reflects back at
u ~ sayin g. 'swamp slime. swamp slime.' Incredible violen ce upon the human
~o u l... " I believe that Smith underestimat es the strength of the human soul and
puts a ro nfill e upon it. I personally (even spiritually) find it quite beaut iful that
I :lIn a part of nature and rise fro m a startling series of amazing event s and
l'\·llilitions. Darwin did not say th at we. as individuals. are 'swamp slime'. Rather.
his theu ry only tells of how nature has grown he}'{)/Jd "swamp slime ." Thi s is
fl ot the delinitiun of our spiritu al presence. but a pi ece of our spiritual and
ph\'\ ica l (,I'olut ion . I might also say to Smi th th at th e· amazing order and
rompl exit\' ofe \'olution strongly points to a creat or.
Sm ith brings thi s up when he writ es. "You are a product oi an int elligent
des igner. You are made in God's image." Ill' is referring to the tex t in Genesis
where it speaks of God creating mankind in his image. As I'm sure Smith would
agree. time docs not exist for God in the simple. lincar way it exists for humans.
It is not truly n cccss ar~' that hUlllans should be in God's image at the 'beginning'
of tilll e in order to be in Go d '~ image. As well, wouldn 't it seem th at the great
encompassing of nature intrinsic to evolution is more God's image than a solo
human being is? I would also like to note that similar literal interpretations of
the Bible would then also have us force women to COVl'r th!:'ir heads in prayer
and offe r animal sacrifice.
Finally. the research of Denton and Behe that Smith mention s seems to
conflict with Darwin 's theory of evolution. However. does it break down Darwin's
entire theor),? And if so. does it disprove evolution as a whole? I don 't beli eve it
docs. ror an example. I will use the analogy that was also used in Smith's article.
Smith writes. "Behe ana logizes the life of the cell and a mouse trap. 'You
ca n't cal ch a few mice with a platform, then add the hammer and improve its
fun cti on. All orthe parts must be there to have any function at all. The mousetrap
is irred ucibly complex ...· Thi s is true. But. isn't it also true that from a simple
mometrap. a few mi ce l'OuJd be caught ? And th at the more efficientlll ousetraps
will catch the most mice and be more successful? Hence. al] evolution of more
effIcient mousetraps frolll a simple mousetrap? Yes. it is possible-if the prima ry
simple mousetrap is first created. Therefore. I would say th at the aforementioned
resea rch docs not di sprove evo lution as a wh ole. but rath er that it proves
c\'olut ionar\' crea tionism.

I am slightly offended by Mr. Smith's portrayal of the
Darwinian icon as something which conveys to others that humans
are "swamp slime." His ideas that these icons should be removed
and "turned in" like handguns shows his misunderstanding of the
icon and what it means. Charles Darwin was one of the fint
naturalists to suggest a different theory of evolution. Granted, many
flaws have been found in his theory, but the basic ideas remain
accepted by a lIl ajorit), of the community today.
Why? To begin with , there is no evidence all humans on the
Earth came from one set of parents, Adam and Eve. If this were
true. we would all be related and constantly committing incest. Not
a pretty picture and probably not true. And if we were "created" in
God 's image. are we supposed to consider the earliest human
ancestors (Australopithecine) representatives of his image? [f so,
we have come a long way and sure hope God has come with us.
Mr. Smith seems convinced that the complexity of life is
evidence we could not have evolved. Consider the time frame we
are talking about here. BILLIONS of years is enough time for a cell
to evolve into something pretty complex. That time has not stopped;
selective pressures are still at work on all life ... and the story goes
on .
Even religious members often support the basics of evolution.
One common id ea is that much of the Bible was written
metaphorically; the theory of creation can be interpreted as a
metaphor for evolution. The authors of the Bible did not have the
scientific knowledge we do today (of even Darwin 's time) and were
unable to express certain ideas-so they created metaphors to
express them .
There is nothing wrong with a Darwinian icon , whether you
are religious or not. It simply shows you support a more literate,
scielltific explanation of how we came upon this planet. It does not
mean you are an atheist, and I'm sure those of us who havethis icon
are NOT trying to tell others we are all "swamp slime."
Mr. Smith. ifyou really want to make a difference in the world,
focus more on handguns and less on littie plastic icons people put
on their cars.
Thank you,
Liz Ellis

Swamp slime is cool
After reading the recent article "Humans
Made in God 's Image ," I found mysel f
considering my own existence, and just how cool
it was that we come from swamp slime. And how
funn y it is that Christians can have such a hard
time wit'll this simple fact. Evolution, the amazing
theory produced one century hither,
is a theory that has withstood
religious trials and scientific
challenges. It explains
the facts and history of
our existenc e better
than any competing
theory. and ex plains
our genetic ancestry
across the ages.
It seems that
some Christians
have a problem with
ev olution , however,
becau se it challenges
and contradicts their
religious beliefs. In his
articl e. Greg Sm ith attempts
to take issue with evolution by first
quoting the following passage from
Darwin:
"If it could be demonstrated that any
co mplex organ existed which could not possibly
have been formed by numerous. successive, sligh(
modifications. my theory would absolutely break
down ." ["Origin of the Species", Darwinl
Smith bases his proceeding arguments by
claiming that these conditions have been proven
to be wrong, and therefore the theory must be
wrong. [t is here that our good pastor falls flat
on his face. Recent research by academics such
as Stephan J. Gould in the field of punctuated
equilibrium supports that evolution does not

-a-

always happen in small steps, but sometimes
proc~eds in a large explosion. A good example
of this is the rapid period of evolution known
as the Cambrian explosion. This research
shows that Darwin was in fact wrong on his
hypotheSis-evolution does not break down
under the above mentioned
conditions, but is shown to be
a much more cohesive force
than originally thought.
Why
do
Christians take such
an issue with basic
research that has
been accepted and
proven more than
any
other
competing theories?
The success of
evolutionary theory
highlights
the
ridiculous nature of the
Christian dogma.
If
evolution is so hard to believe,
then what should we say about the
Chr istian claim that their savior came
from a union between a ghost and a virgin? Or
the claim that their God made the world in
seven days?
My advice for our outspoken campus
preacher-spare us from your religious dribble,
and try to do a bit more research next time
before spouting offabout how the world should
be. For my part. I'll rest content in the
knowledge that we are all intimately connected
with this beautiful existence we call Earth. "Viva Darwin . Long live reason and logic!

Smoker's alert for awareness
As I walk through the dimly lit forum ofthe
first floor of the Library building, I push open the
doors in anticipation of entering the crisp fresh
air of the newly arrived spring. I walk a few steps
through the threshold and [ become
overwhe lmed by the dank, potent stench of
tobacco cigarettes afire. The lingering thick
smoke permeates the area beneath the overhang
and is visually akin to a mystical , morning mist.
Yet the vi.sual stimulation sparking th e
reminiscence of such beauty does not remain for
long as my lungs plead for freedom from the
invasive chemicals in this cigarette smoke. I hold
the remaining breath in my body and dash up th e
stairs only to encounter two slowly walking
smokers on my way. The lone breath within my
lungs exited in a gust of exhalation. Reluctantly.
I inhaled a deep breath of thick, smoky air.
Yesterday, I entered the computer center
and I walked over to greet an acquaintance. As
he spoke, I noticed hi s voice emitted a raspy and
congested undertone. I wondered if his lungs
were coated from the recent increase in smoking
due to the end of the quarter stress rush to finish
and turn in work. I asked him ifthis was the truth.
He acknowledged to himself and to me that he
was smoking more than usual: With this in mind.
I offered him a suggestion of how to clear up his
lungs with steam inhalation and other soothing
therapies. I question to myselfwhy anyone would
consciously choose to torture their bodies in this
way_
These are two of my many experiences at
Evergreen that have sparked some lively thoughts
in my head. I wonder. does smoking tobacco
become a habit that is woven as a necessary fabric
into everyday experience? Or do these smokers
really feel reveren ce toward th e sacred tobacco
that often they ha stily suck down? I also

contemplate the reasons why these individuals
subject nonsmokers and smokers alike to the
sidestream remnants of their somewhat toxic
smoke (depending ofcourse on the makeup of the
cigarette). Sidestream smoke of non -organic
cigarettes is filled with 4.000 known chemicals,
200 of which are poisons (i.e. Cyanide: deadly
in gredient in rat poison; Arsen ic: potent ant
poison ; Acetone: poisonous solvent and paint
stripper; Toluene: poisonous industrial solvent;
ra rbon 'monoxide : extremely poisonous gas
found in auto exhaust).*
Everyone chooses his or her own way and I
am aware of the fact that those who choose to
smoke are entitled to that form of personal
freedom. Yes, you are free to partake in addictive
and' unhealthy actions . Such is life. Realize
though, personal choi ce requires responsibility.
I have noticed smokers who neglect to throwaway
their-butts. I have also been exposed to the
sidestream exhalations of those smokers who
stand in front of the main entrances to the
buildings and pu~f. This letter is a request for
mindfulness and , orne sort of negotiation. I.
would like to breath fresh air outside of the
buildings and not see cigarette butts littering our
beautiful campus . There are those of us who
choose not to smoke tobacco cigarettes and those
who do. Will those of you who smoke' please
('xhibit some responsibility for your choice and
respect others for thei·r right to personal freedom?

Animal
treatment bad,
testing OK
Many of us here at Evergreen do not
support animal testing. I understand
this. [was once an avid supporter of
~ PETA and ALF, until I realized the value
of animal testing. When the sci entific
community tests animals such as rats, it
is valid research. How can it be valid, you
ask? T~e rat looks entirely differenthas a tail, fur, etc. Obviously, any results
could not be useful to -h umans as we
don't have these features.
Well, they are useful to human s.
The main thing rats and hum ans have in
common is the mammalian svstem .
Certain internal and external feat~res are
the sao1e and will respond in similar
ways. When we test medicines, we arr
looking at how the disease responds to
the medication in the rats' sys tem s.
Since the disease infects all mammalian
systems in the same way, the response to
the medication (if any) will be similar to
how a human's system reacts. The flu
vaccine is one success which was based
. on animal testing. Ms _ Lusty says she
can't understand how it could be a
sut:cess because as far as she know s
"dying from flu is not a major problem
in North America," Ms. Lusty. that's
because we 'have the flu vaccine.
Behavioral analysis is another area
where animals are commonly used-lots
of primates here. Again. wr have found
certain behaviors in these mammals to
be so similar to those in humans (who
are also primates) that we can use nonhuman primates to research variou s
behavioral disorders, such as depression
and schizophrenia .
Ms. Lusty suggests tests which
involve "reproducing a disea se" are
worthless becal'fSe the animal didn't have
the disease "in the first place." So wha t?
How does that inva lidate the study? I
obtained my epilepsy "artificially"
thanks to a stupid doctor who gave my
mother some iIlegaJ hormone drugs
while she was pregnant with me (plus I
was a downwinder from Hanford). Does
that mean any studies done on my
epilepsy are invalid because [ didn't
originally have epilepsy. I think not.
Testing on animals is not wrong.
What is wrong is how it's done and how
_ the animals are treated . Laboratory
animals are often not well cared for and
suffer miserably; many studies don't
even use anesthetic when necessary in
order to save money. The animals we eat
are treated just as bad, ifnot worse. Let's
not argue as to whether we should eat or
test animals. Let's work on their living
arrangements. Let's get their caretakers
to realize that these beings have feelings
. and are complete with nerve endings.
and can feel pain. Let's work on getting
the owners to understand that animals
who live in healthier environments are
more productive_ If we can get their
owners to see them as living things rather
than dollar signs, perhaps those of you
who want to stop testing and/or eating
meat will have better luck.

Discrimination in SRC policy
Chances are peoplr with blue hair will get
space in the Communications Building to
perform. while people with green hair will not.
This is possible because the COM staff uses vague
written procedures to guide them when
determining how to allocate resources. This t),pe
of inequitable treatment may include any person
or group found undesirable by one or more of
the COM staff members. From as early as 1995,
COM Building Staff's Supervisor Karen
Wynkoop and COM Building Manager Jacinta
McKoy supported and put into practice an
inequitable system of resource allocation, and 1
believe that the allocation process should be
equitable and aU inclusive.
This ineqUitable treatment has fostered
because the COM staff determines resource
allocation with few criteria. Since 1995, space
in the COM Building has been allocated for
independent academic work based on t he
following: 1) the sponsoring faculty 's perception
of the student's project and the stud ent's
readiness to do the work; 2) the student's skill
level and ability to complete the production; and
3) the amount of space and resources available
for the quarter. The first gu id elin e seems
reasonable and understandable; however. th e
second and third guidelines are too vague.
The COM staff has other unwritten
inequitable procedures in place. For instance, the
COM staff may individually instruct a student
to answer specific questions and to attach that
additional piece of inror-mation to the
production proposal. Unfortunately, since these
questions are not written down and are not

requirrd by all studrnts. thr efficien c), of this
technique is subject to memory lapse. personn el
changf'. and nuances of personnel temperament .
Both Karen W),nkoop and Jacinta McKoy
ch os e to supp o rt that sy st em of reso ur ce
allocation for up to five month ~ aft er I notified
them of the inequaliti ~~. within th e sys tr m.
Moreover, they were generally pleasl'd with tilt'
system. Karen Wynkoop wrote in a letter to me
in June 1995, "I feel confident that the staffhave
developed and use a consistent and fair meth od
to review requests for use of increasin gly scarce
resources." Karen Wynkoop and Jacinta McKoy
condoned and supported thrusting inequitable
treatment upon any student th at on e or more of
the staff members found undesirable regardl ess
of merit. The COM Building staft-mem bers need
to have writt en regulations tha t prot ect th e
students from potentially unfair staft· members.
As it stands right now. even with the updated
Prod uction Proposal Inforl11at'ioll and
Guidelines form. the COM Building StJff' have
the capability of ignoring anyone of the vague
written procedures that guid e th em \\'h r n
determining resource allocation. Nothin g
protrcts the students against wrongful acts JOIl l'
by the Communication Building staft'.
This is why Evergreen officials need to appuint
an objective outsider to in vestigate and report
back to the community his or hrrfindings. Then.
appropriate regulations will be put in place tLl

KINETIC ENERGY
by Hallie Heyman
dance performance participant

Many students might not know about the
unlimited opportun ities available with the
program St udent Originated Studies for the
Performing Arts, but this ha sn't stopped
Anastasia Alexander, Lily G"''Yer-Miller, and
Vi rginia Knapp from forging ahead with their
collaborat ive efforts in creating their dance
performance, (\inetic Energy.
"Working with the dance performance
module last quarter left us wi th the need to do
another performance in the spring. We wanted
to offer an opportunity for dancer s and
choreographers to come together for an
unlimited amou nt of creative work," GwyerMiller said.
Through a written contract they created
for SOS, by attending the weekJy c1assnieetjngs
with the other students and supporting faculty
they have reached their goa l. Premiere wo rks
will be performed in (\inetic Energy Monday,
May 26 and Tuesday, May 27 in the Recital
Hall. including a piec e by co-director and
producer Alexander.
Alexander had bee n wan ting to lea rn th e
p rocess of making a dance, but had been
struggling with a mental block. It wasn 't until
~ he was sick and lying in bed when she came
lip with her concept.
"1 was thinking about falling in and out
of love and how it is kind of like being sick . I
furth ered this metaphorical thought wi'th
breathing. The breathe is where it all starts
from ," Alexander, who ha s been studyin g
performance art for two yea rs, ~aid.

By dancing to her breathing, Alexander
will be exploring the concept of discovery and
autonomy,
"At other universities in dance programs,
the dancers only take dance c1a.sses and maybe
perform once a year, Through the
opportunities we have created for ourselves we
get to perform as much as we like," GwyerMiller said ,
"SOS allows students to sink or swim on
their own without much faculty interference,"
Knapp said. Although she performed in three
pieces in the winter quarter performance New
Works, currently Knapp's focus is on
understanding the technical side to production
as she has taken on the role of technical
director.
Premiere works have also been
choreograp hed by Evergreen students and
commun it y members including: Daniela
Crocetti , Otto Ramstad, Brenda Smith, Angela
Raskin, Ca therine Gray, and Hallie Heyman.
The Evergreen Dance Company, whose
members comprise the upcoming show, was
created during win ter quarter 1997.
Alexander, Cwyer-Mi ll er, and Knapp are
interested in informing the communi ty aboul

Chances are, you never heard (or even

The album features some of the world's favorite

that insp ired us to form bands of our own."

so mewhat reverential and somber. Many of
these songs seem to be ve ry important to the
bands covering)hem, and they are treated with
proper respect - as if maybe they were trying
to impress the bands who originally sang them,
Class gives one of the most powerful
performances on the CD, turning thedan ce hit
"We Don't Have to Take Our Clothes Off" into
a melodic ballad. Not to be missed is the final
hidd en track, a duel by Green with Shivika
Asthana of Papas Fritas, "Total Eclipse of the
Heart." Put it out of your mind ~hat thefe was
an incredibly ugly techno remake released la st
year, and just enjoy this emotional
reinterpretation.

Double Agent's most recent release
is a single combining Peter Green's
talents with those of the Softies. They recorded
some songs together and released them under
the name the Three Peeps. The A side features
two original songs as deeply melodic and
heart-rending as we have come to expect
. from the Softies. The B side is a
beautiful cover of the Byrd's "Mr.

The Urban Onion: a little expensive but certainly worth it

LOl'a ted right across froIll Sylvester Park.
t hl' Urban On ion (original ly ca lled the Herb &1.
OnIOn), is a primari ly vege tarian restaurant. It
i~ quite the high-class establish ment: ca ndles
llil the table . classical Illuzak. and sometimes
tlOl\,ers on a hardwood table. Not much of a
view to the outside (a brick wall). but the
interior is just dark enough to be comfo rtable
with candles on the table. You might want to
plunk an ex tra quarter in the parking meter
jllst to soak lip the atmosphere.
I ordered the coffee. It's pretty good

coffee. able to go down without having to put
sugar and cream in it. Good color. but pretty
average flavor. I'd recommend the herbal tea
instead.
Anyway. pick up the menu, and you find
a dazzling array of food su itable for both
herbivore and omnivore sensibilities. What I
tried was the soup with a haystack sandwich
(the cheapest item on the menu. weighing in
al almost $5). and a side order of the bread
($2). My omnivore friend found the Bayou
Chicken burger ($6.75). The costs are quite
prohibitive to a st udent budget, but that's
what Discover is for.
The bread comes ou t. and it 's the
human equ ivalent to dog biscuit - you will sit
up. roll over. beg. and do that trick you saw
on Letterman last night for a slice! It was
darned hard to keep my hands off it. Whole
grain bread. toasted . with plenty of spices.
Onion and carrots are baked in. and it's
definitely th e closest thing to ambrosia you

can find in Olympia. It's even pretty good with
just a dash of the soy sauce you get on the
table.
The main course is next. The lentil
soup's very hearty. The stuff sticks to your
ribs so well you only need to eat a small bowl.
It's thick (to the pOInt where eati ng it with a
fork might be an option), and comes with a
sli ce of that delicious bread.
The haysta ck is next. Melted Swiss,
avocado, alfalfa sprouts, and other veggies
. stacked on this English muffin. It looks like
it's name, with a big stack of sprouts piled
high . This is almost as good as the bread.
You're better off tackling this sandwich with
a fork .
My friend's enjoying her chicken burger.
We trade bites (I may be vegetarian, but I'm
not above trying something!), and
understand why every other sound out of her
is a "yummy" (or equivalent thereof). A
slightly sp icy chicken breast, cooked tender

and melt-in-the-mouth good, stacked with
plenty of veggies (aU the veggies you'd find
on a good burger, sans pickles), again, it's
almost as good as tbe bread.
The only disappointment came with·
the desserts. A cold, too-heavy, and rather dry
chocolate cake that sold for almost $3. Skip
the desserts. If you must have sweets, go for
a scoop ofice cream.
I walk out with about $23 charged to
my Discover card, giving about an 18 percent
tip for the service, better than average.
Overall, the Urban Onion is a fine
restaurant. It's expensive, but very much
worth it if you want really good food, and you
have a little money to blow on an end-ofquarter celebration, or other special occasion
(I went there for my 20th birthday) .
Recommend the place to your parents if they
can stomach the idea of vegetarian, and save
a slice of that bread.
