In late March, the Higher Educa·
tion Personnel (HEP) Board made
several decisions in the Evergreen
Campus Security reclassi fication
case .
John Spitz, HEP Board director,
made the following decisions :
Security Sergeant Gil Cordova has
been reclassified to Police Sergeant
status, and security officers Andy
Anderson and Lewis Heller have
been reclassified as campus police
officers.
The reclassification efforts of
Larry Savage, Security Sergeant.
and Darwin Eddy, failed.
For the reclassification to occur,
those requesting it must show they
were performing the duties of campus police officers at least six months
befOJe the date of the request.
The security members requested
reclassification in late January , 1984,
because they felt their duties more
closely fit the job description of
police officers, and not that of
security officers.
Security member s Cordova,
Anderson, and Heller, as determin·
ed by Spitz, performed police oflicer
duties for more than six months
prior to the January request date.
Savage and Eddy , however, did not
perform the full scope of police of·
ficer duties for the required six
months.
Such police officer duties include
arrest powers. Both Savage anti
Ed dy were only recently commissioned by thc Thurstan County
Sherriff's Department, and did nOI
possess arrest powers for the reo
quired six month, prior to the
reclassi ficat ion rcquest dat C.
Spitz based hi s decisions on the
recommendation of a Board staff
member assigned to the case.
statements and Icttc rs by the secur i·
ty officers, and a review of the of·
ficers' daily duties. The statement s
of Gary Ru ssell, Chief of Securit y;

Ken Jacob, Director of Auxiliary
Services; and Rita Coope r, of the
Campus Employec Relations Officc,
were also tak en into consideration
for the final decision.
In statements submitted to Spit z,
the sec urit y members stated t hat
over 80 percent of their present
duties are to "perform vehicular and
foot patrols, and train, superv ise and
coordinate other staff orficcrs in
their duties, of all campus areas, to
assure the safety / security of people
and property through en forcement
of college regu lations, federal. state,
and county laws, by meam of mak ·
ing arrests, issuing citations, or tak·
ing other remedial action when
appropriate.' ,
Speci fically, the officers are able
to issue traffic citations, int ervene in
law violations, makc arrests , in·
vestigate domestic violence sit ua·
tions, issue restrai ning orders. and
give testimony in court.
As Spitz stated in a n earlier inter view , "i f either side (the secur it y officers or the Campus Employee
Relations Office) is unsatisfied witl\
my decision, they have 30 days to fi le
a further appeal. ... " That appea l
would be heard directly by the HEP
Board members.
The Camp us Employee Relat iOlls
Ofl'ice is against the reclassificat ioll
and believes that the sec urit y
members' dutics are wi t hin the H EP

Rita Cooper stated that , he has

Spitz's decision.

Bartlett in a previous intervje" ,
stated that he "would (most likely)

'It ain't worKing, ' President Olander says of governance
by Roger Dickey
Three lunch time forums examined governance at Evergreen last
week .
The Evergreen Council called the
forums to call attention to governance issues. educate the community, solicit opinions and form a DfF
to make recommendations on the
future of governance here. The DTF
is scheduled to report back to the
Evergreen Council before the end of
the school year.
On Tuesday, April 9, Evergreen
president Joe Olander- told a crowd
of approximately 50 people that he
was concerned about the discrepency between how Evergreen's
documents say it works and how it
actually functions.
"At Evergreen you have a unique
structure," Olander said. " It is one
of the things that attracted me the
most. But it ain't working no matter how you measure it."

'Peacemaker' exhibit portrays
King's life in pictures

Take your gripes to the streets on National Protest Day
by Susan Scott

"Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.,
Peacemaker," a nationally acclaimed exhibit, will be displayed April 20
through May 12 in Gallery 2 of
Evergreen's library. A reception
featuring Reverend Levi B.
Baldwin, J r., or Seattle will open the
exhibit on Friday, April 19, in the
Library lobby .
The Evergreen State College
Foundation Board of Governors has
funded the exhibit, which is a
graphic timeline of Dr . King's career
and the important event in the
history of civil rights and the peace
movement. Photographs, posters,
pamphlets and magazine and

newspaper articles illustrate key
events between January 15, 1929
(King's birth date) and November 2,
1983 (the day his birthday became a
national holiday).
The exhibit is curated by the Peace
Museum in Chicago, and not only
highlights King's contributions to
civil rights, but also predecessors
such as Paul Robeson and W.E.B.
Dubois and contemporaries such as
Robert Moses, Malcolm X, Fannie
Lou Ha'mer, Stokely Carmichael
and Reverend James Lawson.
The timeline also chronicles the
sources of support and opposition to
Dr. King's stand on the Vietnam

War, including his participation in
the antiwar movement.
Portland artist Isaac ShamsudDin has contributed a limited-edition
poster of Dr. King to commemorate
the OlympIa ana t acoma celebrations. Shamsud-Din will be in Olympia at the opening to sign 100 prints .
All proceeds will be used to cover exhibit promotion and reception costs.
Gallery 2 hours are Monday
through Thursday, 8:45 a .m. to
10:45 p.m.; Friday, 8:45 a.m. to 6:45
p.m.; and weekends, II a.m. to 6:45
p.m. The exhibit as well as the April
19 reception is free and open to the
public.

Two weeks ago Congress approved funding for the MX ' missile,
money that will come from cuts in
social programs like welfare, food
stamps, health care and public
education.
Last week 12 black protestors
were killed by South African police
because they were protesting against
apartheid. Yet President Reagan has
praised the South African government as having made "significant
gains in the area of human rights."
Next week Congress will vote on
Reagan's plan to send $14 million in
aid to Nicaraguan rebels whose tactics have included bombing civilian
farming communities, and murdering doctors, nurses, teachers, nuns
and priests. Yet President Reagan

He has been supported by donations
from "friends, relatives, ex-teachers,
work asscociates," he said, by sending out letters which told about
projects he would be doing, how
much money he would need, and by
agreeing to send quarterly progress
reports. By doing this , the donors
consider him their personal
peaceworker. He raised $7000 the
first time he used this method of fun draising, and plans to begin this fun draising process again next month.

'Adjusting the Whee·I'
premier show ton-ight
by Carla Casper

3,000 rally at Capitol to say, 'We love Louie'
by Wendi D. Kerr
Three thousand people showed up
at the Capitol Building for a rally
last Friday. The rally had nothing 10
do with budgel cuts, nuclear
weapons systems, or the situation in
Central America.
A more pressing (7) matter was at
stake : the possible change of
Washington's state song from the
staid "Washington, My Home" to
the rock -n-roll classic immortalized
in the film A nimal House, "Louie,
Louie. "
The movemenl began Iwo months
ago, when Ross Shafer of Seallle's
KING-TV suggested Ihe song change
on his comedy program, Almost
Live. AI firsl, the ca mpaign was
slriclly longue-in-cheek, bul as lime
wenl by, the idea gained support
from legislalors and the public,
cu lminating in Friday's rally.
The fate of "Louie, Louie" and
"Washington, My Home" won'l be
decided until Ihe next legislative sessio n, but Ihat hasn'l slowed Ihe
"Louie"
fad.
By
Friday,
"Louiemania" had reached a fever

pitch. Radio stations across the state
played the song regularly for the first
time in twenty years. ABC and NBC
(not to mention the local TV and
radio stations) sent crews to cover
the phenomenon. and they interviewed anything that moved.
"We," said an ABC reporter,"are
going to make everyone wonder
what kind of crazy people you have
up here in Washington'"
At 12:20 p.m., Booth Gardner
started the rally off by reading a
document proclaiming April 12
"Louie, Louie" Day in the State of
Washington. (Gardner admitted on
the national news the ne xt evening
that he didn't even like the song.)
He was followed to the
microphone by Ross Shafer, in a
"Louie, Louie" sweatshirt, who
taught all of us the "Louie" salute:
a forefinger-and-thumb "L, " to be
waved enthusiastically at the mere
mention of the song. This , however,
was just a prelude to the real show:
"Louie, Louie" itself, performed by
an all-star group of Northwest
musicians.
At 12:30 the real show began, with

...

a saxophone riff leading into the
familiar three-chord progression.
The band was the Trendsetters,
featuring vocalist George Barner,
who just happens to be Thurston
County Commissioner. Barner, in
hi s patented stage costume of tight
j ~a n' and a bright shirl, danced
around the stage with the energy of
five performers. The audience waved their "L's" in the air, and many
were dancing. One fan waved a sign
that read, "George, George."
After a few verses, Barner introduced the first special guests: the
Kingsmen and the Wailers, both
from Tacoma. Originally, the
Kingsmen had had the most popular
"Lo uie," while the Wailers had had
one of the first. Neither band looked much like rockers; they were
dressed plainly, in jeans and jackets.
The next guests were anything but
plain. Paul Revere and the Raiders,
one of the most successful bands
ever to come from the Northwest,
stepped on stage in red, white, and
blue minuteman costumes with silver
boots. Only a close study revealed
that the costumes had seen better

days . The crowd went wild at
Revere's appearance; the fact that he
is actually an Idahoan didn't seem
to matter.
.. Louie" went on for 20 minutes
as the bands sang the original lyrics;
the new "Washington" lyrics by the
song's original writer, Richard
Berry; and, when those ran out, their
own improvised lyrics. The Ferndale
High School Orchestra even played
a verse.

The song finally ended at 12:50,
and Barner promised to return for
the Second Annual "Louie, Louie"
Day in 1986. The crowd began to
disperse, going back to work or
home, singing "Louie, Louie"
under their breaths, snapping their
fingers . And I, well, 1 forgot that I
was supposed to be a dignified adult.
1 just had to get Paul Revere's
autograph.
"Crazy"
Washingtonians.
indeed!

People resolve the conflict between individuality and what society
expects of them in different ·w ays.
Adjusting the Wheel is the story of
one hero's journey through this conflict, the obstacles she must overcome, and the people she meels
along the way.
Playwright-direclor Brent Ray
said, "Going into one's own mind
and dealing with neurosis is a big
thing today."
However, the roots of the conflict
are ancient. He tells the herione
Zodiac's story by interweaving the
context of today with the mythology
of the past. Zodiac's journey is one
of the mind.
Ray explained that" for Zodiac,
the mind is the labrynth, and the
Minotaur is the neurosis. In coming
to terms with it, she can go out into
society and hopefully help the world
be a better place."
This theme is woven throughout

Tim Noah, a nalionally celebraled
recording artisl and children's enter tainer, will perform Saturday, April
20, in Evergreen's Co mmunicalion s
Building Recilal Hall al 1:00 p.m.
This concert has a special Ilare
because Ihe producers of this show
are two children, Yosem Simon
Reichert-Sweet (age 6) and David
Kerr (age 10). The kids are producing this show as a benefit for famine
relief in Ethiopia.
A Tim Noah concert will mak e
parents and children alike get up and
boogie! He sings your imaginalion

tion of KFJC's show. Besides the Kingsmen,
this compilation has "Louie" renditions by
the Rice University-Marehing 0wl Band,-'Fhe
Sonics, The Wailers (no, nol Bob Marley),
Richard Berry (the writer of the song), The
Sandpipers (in Spanish!), The Last, Black
Flag, Les Dantz and His Orchestra (which
sounds suspiciously like David Bowie's "Let's
Dance" run amok), and a religious rendition
called, aptly enough, The Hallelouie Chorus.

So? Just what is the point here? Well, 1
haven ' t quite figured that · oul yet. But
somehow, for some absurd reason, I think it
might have something 10 do with this silly
drive to make "Louie, Louie" our state song.
To which I say: "What the hell? Bener to have

Which is when I gOI 10 Evergreen.
The fir sl time I ever heard "Louie" live was
at Ihe 1982 Halloween dance, wilh music provided by The Ducks (Ilhink). So Ihere I was,
having waited over 19 years 10 hear a Song
of Lege,id, knowing only instinclually Ihal it
was good and good for me.
Whal happened? As soon as I recogni zed
Ihe song as "Louie," 1 screamed like a lunatic

maniac, just as every olher rational and irrational being did in Ihal hOI, swealy , and loud
room. Words cannot adequalely describe my
feelings of those minules of lunacy and mania.
But Gawd, il was fun while il lasted.
In the meanlime, I managed 10 secure a
copy of The Who's Quadrophenia sound-

the dancing and dramatic pieces of
the play. The conversations between
Ihe psychiatrist, Dr. Bedlam, and
Zodiac bring a comic element into
Ihe play. Dr. Bedlam, while symbolizing authority, has a tendency to
be a little scalpel happy .
Ray went on to say Ihal Zodiac
becomes a hero when she "breaks
OUI of the conlext thai olhers are trying to keep her into, and has the
strength to choose her own path."
Ray picked the title Adjusting The
Wheel for many reasons. The wheel
of mythology was the stars, the
wheel of today is in the gears of the
mind, and the cycles of the seasons.
The wheel is also the dialectic of
history.
"We're in a real crucial part of
history that cries out for a leader, or
for everyone to take the hero's role
for themselves, and for everyone
else," Ray said.
Ray has created a very visual production by implementing computer

Anytime a team is faced with back

consistently. Well, the Evergreen
Tennis team survived three matches
in four days last week. It was a tough
week that scheduled a road trip to
Oregon between two home matches .

"Sometimes you win and don't
play well, but today I played well
and won," Klockner said.

The first of three matches was
held at Evergreen last Wednesday
when the Geoducks hosted Pacific
Lutheran University. A very worthy
opponent, the Lutes are the defending NAIA District One Champions, ranked 13th in the country.
The Lutes were able to leave the
Capitol City with a 7-2 victory, but

who went down in defeat 8-1. The
lone TESC victory came when

enough to inspire Chotzen to victory. "It pumped me up and gave

Those would be the only wins of
the day for the Geoducks. After one
day off it was time to take the show

This Friday Evergreen will renew
its rivalry with SI. Martins. The
match will be held at Evergreen . On
Sunday the Geoducks will hold an
all day in-squad tournament. The
tournament is a preparation of the

even though education and health

us to make sure every person in this
country knows what is happening
there, we were told, so that all can ,
understand the reality of that area
and help to stop the U.s. aid .
Carlos Octavio Escobar, one of
4.500 Salvadoran teachers living in
exi le, spoke next.
Escobar told us he had heard that
among the American people there
are a grea t number of individuals in
soldarity with those suffering in
Central America. Since he has
traveled in the U.S., he knows thi s
is true. He told us that although he
didn't have enough time to cover all
of the tragedies of Central America,
he could speak of some of the
falsities being published about what
is happening.
The conflict in Central America,
he said, is not one between north and
south, or one between east and west.
The most important aspects of the
conflict have nothing to do with
these boundaries, but instead date
back to the conditions created by the
Spanish Conquest, conditions by
which a minority determined how

the majority lived.
He told us that on September 15
Central Americans celebrate,
because on that day in 1821 they
gained their liberation from Spain.
The people who were in power after
this liberation were the descendant s
of the Spanish Conquistadors, and
thus the situation for the majority of
people in th is area was unchanged.
The Spanish had taken all of the
land and when they depart ed they
left it to their desce ndants.
. As a result only a few peop le ill
Central America now own land. The
rural people who don't own land
have to work for others to produce
things they. cannot use them se lves
because they have no wealth with
which to purchase them.
Thus their labor increases the
wealth of the rich, and they grow
poorer.
Escobar explained that this is the
basis of the connict in EI Salvador,
where U.S. aid is used to maintain
the position of the wealthy people.
Other falsities and propaganda are
being used to trick the American
people, and to justify increased aid
for the military and their work.
Senor Escobar said that the
civilian government in EI Salvador
has no real power, and, as a result,
it doesn ' t matter how many elections
are held in his country.

January by Governor Booth Gardner. He said he was chosen "because
I'm a good guy."
Page is president of Washington
Roundtable, a non-profit organization of 33 chief executive officers
from major Washington corporations . The Roundtable, Page said,
"Is business applying their money
and judgement to help the state do
a better job."
Page hasn't had a great deal of
time to familiarize himself with
Evergreen, but he views the role of
every trustee as being "advocates off
the campus, and challengers or
friendly critics on the campus."

Dave Scalzo says, "Do the popsicle!"

phoro by Dave Peferson

Each of the Board members,
when asked what he or she would
like to say to students, said more student involvement with the Board is
needed. The Board could better
serve students if students would attend meetings and make their needs,
wishes, and expectations known.
And, besides, the meetings are a
great place to learn a different
language, just be sure to bring along
your English-acronym dictionary.

Board

there are a number of things going
on at once, and it's great to be a part
of. "
Mante has a master's degree in
Public Administration from Seattle
University, and a bachelor's degree
in Political Science from Willamette
University in Oregon.
"The important thing is that
Evergreen respects the rights of its
minority elements .... and has respect
for eaeh individual and their right to
be heard. That is a tremendou~
strength," Mante said. "I look forward to places where we can go with
five, ten and twenty year plans. SO
we can grow and expand and do it
in the Evergreen manner."
Mante would Ii ke to see
Evergreen grow in stages, and to
level off with four or five thousand
students enrolled. With a larger student population, Evergreen would
be able to maintain an open-door
policy and be less endangered by the
whims of the legislature.
Unlike Gelman, Mante said that
the marketplace should dictate areas
of curriculum expansion "as long as
the college continues to teach
students to think and to learn."
"We must respond to what
students want. People tend to feel
. that computers and accounting are
really not a part of a liberal arts
education. Of course that's what
students are really clamoring for ... .l
think that if someone can do physics
or English in the Evergreen style they
can certainly do marketing or accounting in the Evergreen style."
Mante works at the Washington
State Employment Security Department. He supervises audit and
technical procedures of the department's tax branch for fourteen
district tax offices statewide.
