An 18-year-old student from the
Soviet republic of Latvia spoke on
campus last Monday about hel" native
homeland and the current movement for
Baltic independence.

of the Baltic Experience Ineotporated, an
organization operated by Uldis Ohaks.
The Baltic Experience Inc. aganizes
peace walks through the Baltic States.
The peace walks operate on the promises
of an equal number of Americans and
Latvians participating in the Latvian tour,
and that the same number of Latvians as
Americans will, in 1Um, come to visit the
United States. leva Kalnina is ooe of 20
Latvians currently visiting America.
thanks to the Baltic Experiences Inc.
Latvia is located in Middle Europe,
on the eastern coast of abe Baltic Sea. Its
population is approximately 2,620,000. Of
those, ooly 52% are native Latvians; 43%
are Russian emigres. and abe remaining
5% of oIh& nationalities.
Some of the country's major
problems include the poUution of the
environment; death rate outranking the
birth rate; and the goal of regaining
sovereignty as a nation.
Cwrent1y a republic of the Soviet
Union, Latvia. during the last six hundred
years, has been under the control
Getman, Polish, and Swedish rulers.
In 1918. the country gained its
independence as a free nation, and this
independence lasted until 1940. when it
was ceded to Russian under the
Molotow-Ribentrop pact with Nazi

Germany.
leva Kalnina lives in the Latvian
capital of Riga, where she shares an
apartment with hel" moaber, sister and
grandmoaber.
She has visited New York. New
Jersey, and Olympia. She also will visit
Washington D.C. and PelUlSylvania
Ovel" abe surnmel", Uldis Ohaks'
daughter leva, an Evergreen student, went
to Latvia as 8 participant of one of the
peace walks. .She and Kalnina met on the
American/La1vian peace walk, and for a
short time Ohaks stayed in Riga wiab
Katnina and her family. During her
Olympia visit, KaInina lived on campus
wiab leva in her dorm room.
During her Monday presentation,
Kalnina discussed the Baltic sovereignty
movement currently taking place in
Latvia and its sister republics, Estonia
and Lithuania.
Due in part to Glasnost, the Latvian
independence movement is expected to
culminate this surnmel", when the
Citizen's Front (8 popular movement
seeking Baltic independence) hopes to get
a majority vote in Latvian elections.
These votes would elect Citizen's
Front members to the Coogress of
Deputies, the legislative body of Latvian
govenunenL ThiS will allow the Congress
to vote for autooomy from the Soviet
Union.
An article within the Soviet
Constitution allows for republics to
secede, provided that the JllIijority of the
republics citizen wish 10 do so.
Such action wasn't takell sooner

SOl

because, accordiu.g to Kalnina, Latvians

were too wary of Soviet reprisal. But abe
common thought now is while abe Soviet
Union might not like Baltic secessions, it
will allow them without military
repression.
Latvia's goal of national sovereignty
sterns from many different roots. One of
these is that during its years as a free
nation, Latvia was economically ahead of
its neighbors.
Today, its economy is geared toward
supplying the Soviet Union--or more
concisely, the cities of Moscow and
Leningrad, which according to Kalnina
receive the bulk of Latvian produce.
Some surplus is allowed to remain
in the country to feed the nation's
natives. Latvians look back to abere past
independence as a sort of golden age,
and believe that if they were allowed
sovereignty and free trade, that they
could once again be the economic leader
of abeir comer of abe world.
Since 1959, until 1987, any type of
Baltic nationalism had been strongly
discouraged by the ruling Soviet party.
Independence leaders were deported to
Siberia and other regions, and an influx
of Soviet emigree replacements began.
The national Latvian language was
frowned upon, and in some areas of the
country, the native tongue wasn't even
taught in abe schools until abe beginning
of 1989. The display or possession of abe
Latvian flag was made illegal. Certain
cultural celebrations were outlawed, as
was the singing of the nation8J anthem.
Besides the Latvian push for

independence, Kalnina addressed subjects
such as prejudice in Latvia against
Russian emigres, and the nation's
environmental troubles.
Katnina and Ohaks both discussed
their
experiences
with
the
American/Latvian peace walk. They
praised abe experience, saying that the
walk fulfilled its purpose of heightening
cultural awareness by bringing individuals
from separate cultures together, and of
spreading the message of peace.
As Ohaks explained, "I was walking
down abe road in Latvia, in abe middle of
the countryside, and abere's nothing you
can do but talk to people.
"I Ihink in a way abat it's really
empowering for people to feel like
they're doing someabing, that may seem
really intangible, but abey' re doing
something for peace. They're saying, yes,
I want peace," she said.
The Baltic Experience has two tours
organized for the summer of 1990. The
first is a tour to the Latvian Song
Festival, July I-IS, in which 15
participants will spend one week in the
Latvian capital of Riga, and one week in
the Latvian countrySide.
The second tour is the longer August
3-25 Ballic Walk, which plans to take
120 participants on hiking tours
throughout Estonia, Liabuania and Latvia.
The costs of the tours are $2,150 and
$3,000;

Last year, the Evergreen Men's
soccer team qualified for their first-ever
playoff tournament for the NAIA District
I championship, after winning the
district's Southern Division crown. This
year, they again won the Southern
Division crown, and enter playoff action
beside the women's team.
This year the women's team is runner
up in the Southern Division of District 1.
The district championship tournament for
both Geoduck teams pits the number one
team in each division against number two
team in the opposing division. The
winners advance to
the
District
Championship game.
According to Men's Coach Arno
Zoske, NAIA District I is one of the
three toughest out of the nation's 44
districts. Zoske says his team, with eight
seniors, is the best men's team in
Evergreen's history. Women's Coach
Dave Brown says District I holds is the
nation's toughest of 31 districts in the
nation.

F.I.S.T. conducts SemInar

by Elisa R. Cohen
While Ihe gun vote was being tallied
last Wednesday in the CAB, 10 women
gathered together in Ihe Communications
Building to learn ways to defend
themselves against rape.
Organized by Campus Crime Watch,
two members of F.I.S.T. (Feminists In
Self-Defense Training) led the group
through a discussion of women's fears
about rape; where rape occurs, who are
the rapists, what is Ihe defmition of rape.
They then demonstmted correct ' and
effective ways to avoid and escape a
They
guided Ihe
sexual assault
participants
through
a
series
of
assertiveness exercises which included
posture, manner of speaking and
situational evaluation.
During the final hour, they taught
some techniques of the physical aspect
of self-defense: yelling, kicking, and
punching.
Offered as a free seminar for women,
this evening was an abridged version of
a six-hour course offered each quarter by
F.I.S.T. through Leisure Education.
One purpose of the class was to
dispel common myths and unsubstantiated
fears about rape. While the stranger
lurking behind a darkened shadow,
leaping out and abusing the unsuspecting
woman does on occasion occur, 7 out of
10 rapes are committed by people the
victim know by at least his or her flTSt
name.
Seventy-five percent of rapes occur
in buildings, homes or workplaces -- not
outdoors. In 87 percent of sexual assaults,
no weapon of any kind is involved. The
last stereotype dispelled by the seminar,

was that the rapist would somehow look
like a rapist Common myths are that
rapists are huge, dirty, deranged, sexcrazed, older, and men of color.
The reports from rapes confmn that
every type, color and kind of man has
raped
Upon dispelling Ihe myths of where
rapes occur and who are the criminals,
the seminar turned to the realities of the

crime and the procedures by which it is
often perpetrated.
Half of all rapes start with casual
conversation for 10 or more minutes in
a safe, public place. During this time, a
rapist assesses the woman's vulnerability
to attack. He will try to maneuver the
woman into an isolated location where he
can begin his attack.
It is during these minutes, the
seminar leaders stressed, that the woman
must be assessing the situation and
abiding by her own intuition.
If a move into an isolated location

makes a woman Wleasy, she should Wlder
no circumstances disregard her intuition
and be led into a place of vulnerability.
Rape is a crime of power, not sex.
Sex is used as the weapon in the crime
just as a gun is used in 8 holdup.
As soon as the woman allows the
rapist to conlrol her actions and location,
Ihe less chance the woman will have in
avoiding or escaping a sexual assault.
To avoid becoming a victim, Ihe
seminar offered various ideas and
approaches for each woman to put
together in her own self-defense strategy.
The first exercise involved sitting in
a close circle with knees touching. Each
woman put her hand on the woman's
knee to her right. The woman whose
knee was being "fondled" had to
convince the "fondler" -- by using
assertive voice, posture and eye contact - to remove her hand.
The next exercise included yelling.
The women were taught how to yell from
their abdomen, making it project farther
and have a more assertive, aggressive
tone.
They practiced yelling "NO''', "GO
A WAY", "YOU OVER THERE, HELP
ME."
Next they were taught how to make
a proper fist and effective places to strike
a man. The eyes, nose, adam's apple,
groin, and knee caps became the mental
focus of many yell-accompanied punches
delivered to the protective pad the
instructors held while the women
punched.

Students risk IAIDS infection
by Amy Harris
Today's college students are at risk
for HIV/AIDS infection, regardless of
their sexual preference. AIDS, Acquired
Immunodeficiency
Syndrome
is
characterized by the collapse of the
body's natural immunity against disease.
Acquired means the virus (Human
ImmWlodeficiency Virus, HIY) needs to
enter directly into the bloodstream. This
is caused by specific behaviors, not
casual contact
Immunodeficiency:
the
natural
defenses of the immune system are
depleted by the virus and the ability to
fight disease is lowered.
Syndrome is a combination of
symptoms or signs which are related to
AIDS. In an anonymous swvey of
college students' blood samples taken by
The
American
College
Health
Association, five to seven out of 1,000
students were IIIV positive with no
symptoms or signs, and 1 in 1,000 had

AIDS.
Relating this to the population of The
Evergreen State College, hypothetically
there are 15 to 21 HIV positive people
that look and feel fine, and three students
with AIDS.
Rising AIDS statistics among high
school and college teenagers show that
people are being infected at a youngf
age. There is a latency period from
infection to diagnosis that can be seven
to 10 years. As of July 1989, according
to the U.S. Center of Disease Conlrol,
there are 4,454 people between ages 20
and 24 who may have been infected Wilh
the AIDS virus within the last lQ years.
The numbers of infected people is higher
between the ages of 25 and 29 - 16,408
people may have been infected wilhin the
last 10 years.
There are protective steps that can be
taken to decrease one's risk for

HIV/AIDS
Infection.
Options
abstinence and Safer Sex techniques.

These techniques can include sensuality
without intercourse and use of a condom
during intercourse.
The mv (Aids Antibody) test is also
available. When taking the test, it is
important to insure that one's test results
are kept confidential and are done by a

by Scott A. Richardson
A revised proposal to amend the
Student Union (SU) document was
brougbt by Eric . Engstrom to the
November 1 SU meeting.
The original JXOPOS8I, which seclts to
create guidelines f<r all-student-votes and
all-student-polls, was discussed at the
previous SU meeting.and was redrafted
to address concerns raised by several SU
students.
A1]-student-votes, if passed, would be
considered
binding
SU
decisions,
according to the language in the proposal.
In contrast, all-student-polls would be
used to gauge student opinion on an
issue, Ihough the method of voting would
be similar.
After discussion the proposal was
referred to a seven member committee to
be chaired by Engstrom.

The need for outreach to the student
community was an item discussed for
several minutes. The point made was that
SU meetings thus far have focused on the
SU itself.
AIthough other items are acted upon,
there is a need for greater issue covezage
at the meetings. Several avenues of
outreach are to be explo.red. . .
There was some diSCUSSIon of the

points of view expressed.
The primary options for Ihe CAB
safety issue are to lock the building for
several night hours or to hire a security

funds).
But several of those at this SU
meeting felt that neither option is tenable;

Guns, like lighting, represent an

In closing, I suspect that the lack of
concern about sexual assault on this
campus, and elsewhere, is because half
the people on this campus, and
elsewhere, are male. Males generally do
not face the threat of sexual assault

was also sadly reminded of some
disturbing facts.
Americans respond with large

the face of natunll disasters, which strike
suddenly and reap instant human misery.
But when it comes to society's manmade disaskl's, which slowly eat away at '
human minds, bodies and spirits,
Americans are not so responsive.
Yes, people are dead and others are
homeless in the Bay area because of an
earthquake, a natural disaster. But in

entering the police force. Then and only
then would a weapon be handed to
security.
A trained, armed security would be
able to protect the Evergreen community
much more effectively. I do not see a
logical argument ~ can prove

otherwise.
The only valid point I have heard is
that more security officers are needed.
This is a very good idea. However, a
larger security force will not solve the
problem unless the officers are armed.
For those who argue against the
issue, I propose this scenario:
A mentally unstable person uses a
handgun to rob a student on campus.
This person then !I1tempts to rape the
student when security is alerted. It will

take 5 to 15 minutes for the police to
arrive.
Meanwhile, the armed person has
many options. The person may Iddnap or
shoot the student or security officer that
tries to intervene. Or this person could
escape, and next to nothing ' could be
done to prevent this.
If security were armed, this situation
could be avoided. Are there any
alternative solutions to this problem?

'Improvement' could mean destruction
by Ted Mabr
A 400 acre rural community with
local businesses and families just west of
Olympia along Mud Bay Road will be
eliminated if the Pace Corporation of
Bellevue has their way.
They have plans to annex the area
into the City of Olympia. Then, once
annexed, rural Mud Bay Road will
become a five-lane superhighway. The
Pace Corporation also plans to force local
residents to pay hwulreds of thousands of
dollars for sewer lines, road widening,
and other improvements which will solely
benefit their proposed business park: using
what are called the "Local Improvement
District" (1...1.0.) law.
Sewer lines are the key to high
growth, high profit developments: without
sewer lines, these developers cannot
create
high
density
development.
Developers like the Pace Corporation like
to prey on the rural areas bordering urban

areas.

They usually buy this Iura! land
cheaply, and then, force local residents
to pay up to hundreds of thousands of
dollars for the developers sewer lines,
street widening, traffic lights, etc.,
through the annexation and L.I.D. laws.
The Pace Company wrote in their
environmental impact statement that
"most, if not. all, existing housing south
of Mud
Bay Road
would
be
demolished as property owners develop
their land...or transfer ownership to
developers." (Final Environmental lmpact

statement, p. lli-34)
Under the cwrent Washington L.I.D.
law, only 60 percent of the assessed
valuation of a rural area is needed to
annex it into a city. Mter an area is
annexed, developers then only need 51
percent of assessed valuation of that area
to force all property owners in the area
to pay for their sewer lines, road
widening, traffic lights, etc., under the
L.I.D. laws. As examples of what this
costs: one traffic light costs up to
$100,000: sewer lines can cost up to
$2,000 per foot.
Faced with bills totaling hundreds of
thousands of dollars, local residents often
lose their homes, because they are unable
to pay for these costs. In the process of
losing their homes, local residents lose a
second time, because they are forced to
sell their homes at a loss due to the
added burden of sewer line costs to the
prospective buyer. It is simply not right
for anyone to, lose their home to somC?
company's sewer line.
.
Corrupt city councils and developers
often work in tandem. Cities want to
increase tax revenues. Developers want
others to pay for their investments.
Thus, cities like Olympia have a revenue
incentive to annex rural properties into
their boundaries; developers have and
incentive to make local residents pay for
their sewer line investments.
The key to these problems are the
L.I.D. laws. However, not all developers
take advantage of these unfair laws.

of last year, when a letter'iJemeaning to
gay and lesbian people was printed under

policy of the paper was that anonymous
letters would not be published.

nothing offensive about the human

we exist. We are already getting enough
bad publicity from the Olympian! We
don't need to be making ourselves look

Finally, in matters of opinion, I just
can't believe you wouldn't print the
"Holy Cow" comics submitted to you last
year, (because they were supposedly
offensive), but you did print the
"Ambrosial Verses."

Editors' Note: The poets' names were
left oUl inodvertantly, we apologize. The
CPJ did not print a rwde drawing last
year. Four years ago a drawing was
printed that some readers found offensive,
which 1pOY be what this letter refers to.
As far tis opinions aboUl printed material
-- the editors don't like everything we
print. And editors change every year, so
although policies may remain constant,
the interpretalions of those policies may
change.
The policy of only printing signed
letters began after the Reptilian
Underground cOnlroversy, although the
editors did know who the wrote the letter
and how to jind them.

Dial 'H' for harassm.ent

by Sylvia Darkow
"Hello Sylvia, this is your secret
admirer" said the voice on the phone.
One of my male friends is making a
rather insensitive joke, I thought I asked
for his name, expecting a friend to
laughingly identify himself.
He didn't offer a name, but instead
asked me what I was doing. Not thinking
clearly I said, "watching television." Then
he asked me what I was wearing, and
without waiting for a reply asked me to
talk about sex with him. I hung up the
phone, then I got mad. I was the victim
of an obscene phone call.
There aren't many women in this
society who can say they've never
received an obscene phone call. Callers
are people, usually men, who for a
variety of reasons express their sexuality
this way. Many calls involve heavy
breathing and obscenities rather than
conversation, but it doesn't have to be Rrated to be obscene. Here's what I
learned from talking to the phone
company and a Thurston County Sherifrs
deputy.
Whenever someone does not identify
themselves over the phone after repeated
requests, hang up. Whenever someone
asks personal questions, wants to know if
you're alone, seems to be disguising their
voice or want to have phone sex, hang
up. ~
Don't answer any questions, no
matter how innocent they seem. TIle
caller may regard it as encouragemenl
Also, people often say things on the
phone they would never volunteer to
strangers in person. That's the behavior I
wasn't aware of before, but I'll never
forget again. Some obscene phone callers
count on it in order to learn more about
their victims.
Even if you think obscene phone
calls are just innocent fun, don't stay on
the line for amusement. This will

encourage the ~er to haiass other
women.
Also, .the caller might call you again.
The so-called prank you went along with
once could become constant harassmenL
It's natural to be angry and resentful.
However, don't stay on the line to
express your anger, it's just what many
callers wanl Hang up as soon as you
realize what's happening, then call the
police. If you live on campus, call
Security also. If you Jive outside city
limits, call the sherifr s office in your
county.
An obscene phone call may seen
like a small thing to call law enforcement
about, but it's nol A crime was
committed against you. Respect yourself
and your rights. If it happens again, you
will have and official record of
harassment already on file. In a case of
repeated harassment, this is the kind of
record your phone company will need if
you decide to take further steps.
The plain truth is, there isn't much
you can do right away about obscene
phone calls. If you own an answering
machine, you can use it to screen calls.
You can also request an unlisted phone
number, or change your listing in the
next phone book to your farst initial and
last name.
Most
importantly,
don't

underestimate the effect an obscene phone
call may have on you emotiooally. It's
not a joke, it's sexual harassment and an
invasion of ·your privacy. You have been
victimized. You are right to feel
assaulted. even if it was "just" a phone
call. Discuss your feelings openly with
your family, friends or a professional
counselor. You are human, and in such a
situation it is human to feel anger, fear,
frustration and anxiety.
My "secret admirer's" call ' w~
reported to the Thurston County Sherifrs
Office, but for me the incident is not
over. I still wonder if the caller is
or
someone
I know;
a
friend
acquaintance, a friend of my roommate's,
a classmate or a co-worker.

He called me by my first name and
said he was "my" secret admirer, which
strikes me as a thing only someone who
knows me would say. Chances are it's
someone who just saw my name in the
phone book, but there is no way to know
for certain.

Council.
Gadbaw, along with Rex Derr (who
is also running for re-election) and Bill
Daley (who is resigning from the city
council, and is now running for
freeholder) kept the "Let's Vote on
LOTI" initiative off the ballot last year,
even though over 4,500 signatures were
collected.
The "Let's Vote on LOTI" initiative
would have required the City of Olympia
to specify how public monies were being
spent on the LOTI II sewer lines. In
addition, citizens would have been given
the right to an advisory vote on these
sewer lines. The initiative arose out of a
concern that there was no accountability
over Lott
Development issues are entering the
upcoming Olympia City Council elections
on November 7. Laura Hoeman,
Gadbaw's opponent for City Council,
says that Gadbaw has a poor track
record.
"Along with Rex Derr and others,

living along the sewer line develop their
property and tie into the line they pay for
their fair share of the cost of the sewer
line at that time.
Latecomer fee agreements are a very
fair way to apportion the costs of growth.
There are many developers in Thurston
County and elsewhere in Washington
Slate who have paid for their own sewer
and other investments using this method.
For example, Black Hills Community
Hospital and the new Top Foods
Supermarket on Olympia's west side paid
for their own sewer lines, street
widening, and other utilities; Intelco in
Lacey will pay for their own sewer lines.
Under latecomer's fee agreements,
others who tie onto these companies'
sewer lines at a later date will be
required to pay their fair share for the
cost of the sewer lines at that time.
There is no reason why the Pace
Corporation cannot be made to pay for
their own sewer lines and other utilities
for their Mud Bay Road development
Many residents living along Mud Bay
Road ask, "Why should we pay for a
sewer line that benefits only some
corporation? And why should we lose our
homes in the process?"
.
The City of Olympia is interested in
increasing tax revenues. However, if state
office buildings are built, there will be a
net drain of city tax revenues, since the
state does not pay taxes.
Thus, city residents will pick up the
bills for 'police, fire and other city
services.
,
These development issues are entering
into local politics. For example, according
to the Public Disclosure Commission,
Olympia Mayor Holly Gadbaw recently
received $100 from the Realtors Political
Action Committee of Washington for her
re-election campaign to the Olympia City

g

rress

HoUy changed the zoning for both
Rolling Fields (a multi-unit tra"k housing
complex)
and
Grass
Lake
to
accommodate developers, against the
wishes of local citizens," Hoeman said.
"Under her leadership, the Olympia City
Council has postponed a decision on the
annexation and development of the Mud
Bay Road area until after the election."
Other candidates running for Olympia
City Council with strong environmental

senslbV1ty are Nina Carter (who is a
strong supporter of preserving Grass Lake
as a city park) Sandra Romero, and Bill
Foster.

1 first saw Steve Wright guest shots
on Saturday Night Live several years
back. He addressed the audience in a
low-pitched monotone, his face frozen in
drooped repose, and rasped out lines like
"A lot of people are afraid of heights.
Not me man, I'm afraid of widths."
.
Unfortunately, he broke
through and then didn't follow through.
He got raves from the press. A bit part

jokes over and over again, the ones from

lmew the record, backwards and forwards.
We recited bits of it to each other all the

lost a buttonhole" gets a little old.
Then, some hopeful signs. He went
on Carson, and he finally had some new
material. Pretty good stuff. So, when
my roommates asked if 1 wanted to go

We had good seats--fifth row, just a
little off to the left.
The audience
coming in saw a podium with two blue
lights crossed over it, and two mikes, one
behind the podium, one standing off to
the side. After awhile the lights went
down and this guy, introduced as "A
good friend of Steven Wright's" came out
and did his act from behind the podium.
His material covered the Exxon oil spill,
radiation, and the wisdom of VicePresident Quayle. Your basic Letterman

she would be. "Sleep now, while you
can ... little baby harlot, " he sang. It was
alright, but not as well organized around
a theme as "Rachel."
The ending was the biggest downer
for me. He did the blank-tape-in-thestereo bit, which he finished up his
Carson set with, and I figured that was
it, but it wasn't quite. He ended the set
two jokes later with the stranger-on-theski-lift bit... which he also ended the
album with, which he's probably been
ending his sets with ever since he made
it up. The set was okay. The new jokes
were on it, for the most pan. But he
didn't have enough of them, and the set
was only 45 minutes or so. Maybe he
made up all his classic stuff before he
was famous and then got writer's block,
I dunno. Steve's trying, but he's not out
of the hole he dug himself yet.
