CONVENIENT
Intercity Transit makes commuting between The Evergreen State College and
downtown Olympia really convenient. Our buses on this route run as late as
10:40 pm from downtown, later than any other service we offer. All buses on this
route also have convenient bicycle racks for those who enjoy pedaling downhill into
town, but find the going tough back up to the college.
Timetables are available at the college bookstore and in the student information
center in the CAB.
Convenient monthly passes or tickets may be purchased at the college bookstore.

Welcome to the new CPJ. We

• many conditions and issues this year
• which will be necessary for all of us,
• old and new, to understand and act

• The rest of the JOURNAL this

•
As you have noticed if you are not
• a new
student, the JOURNAL has a
• new format. We hope you will also
• notice a change in our method of
• coverage. Brief summaries of essen• tial news will be contained near the

"news event." We will ta:Ik with someone different each week in an attempt to further understand our
community as a collection of very
diverse individuals.
Student groups will also have a
weekly space; in each issue a different group will write an article on
an issue of concern to its members.
In an attempt to make our sports
coverage appealing and useful to the
most number of people, we are
changing the emphasis to "Health
and Recreation." Look here for information on how to be involved
with healthy and enjoyable activities on campus, as well as for
coverage of the fighting Geoducks.
Regrettably, we were unable to
include all of the writing we received this week; sincere apologies go
to those we could not include due to
space constraints.
We hope you enjoy this issue, and
the nature of our changes. Please

appointed Vice President and Provost
Patrick Hill as chairman of the planning
council. Patrick formed two subcommittees,
entitled the Environmental Committee and
the Values and Aspirations Committee. The
former researched Evergreen's relationship with the legislature and outside forces.
The latter looked inward, to research the
needs and goals of the college itself. A third
committee, the Resources Committee, was
later formed.
The reports from these groups were combined to form the Strategic Plan.'.It was
authored by the planning council with the
supervision of the Board of Trustees. The
Trustees then accepted the plan by vote
after some "editorial" changes.
There are positions available on the planning council for student representatives; applicants should contact Steve Hunter at

Governance: students
lack voice, face
deadline
As students return to Evergreen this fall,
they will be asked to consider how they
wish to be organized, and have been given
a deadline of December 15 to form some
type of a governing body. In the past,
various processes have been used, then
abandoned when they proved unworkable
or inefficient. According to Cheryl Cowan
of the Student Communications Center,
"Governance at Evergreen has been loose
traditionally." She indicated that today's
students have an opportunity as well as an
obligation to participate in the creation of
this new organization.
Presently there is no group which formally represents the collective student voice
at Evergreen, although three students do
serve on an Advisory Board (A B) which
makes recommendations to the President.
This board was formed through the implementation of a Disappearing Task Force
(DTF) in January of 1986, charged by the
president after the Evergreen Council was
disbanded the previous summer. In its final

report the DTF stated the purpose of the
AB as follows:
The Evergreen State College is governed
by its Board of Trustees through the President of the college. The President delegates
authority and responsibility for governance
as outlined in the documents by which the
college operates. The policies and rules, according to which the college chooses to
govern itself and its members, are constrained by the laws of the land and by
policies promulgated by agencies and
bodies that, by statute or contract, have
governance authority over some or all
members of the Evergreen community.
There are three constituencies that comprise the college. They are students, staff
(classified and exempt), and faculty. All
policies and rules of the college affect
members of all three constituent groups.
The Advisory Board (AB) makes recommendations about all-campus policy matters
to the president upon higher request or
when college policies and resulting rules
create concern 01'- conflict, potential or
realized, between or among constituencies.
It is intended that matters of concern will
be litudied by the AB proactively, if possible, before actual policy-related conflicts occur. Therefore, it is essential that members
of the AB maintain full and continuing communication with their constituency and that
they try to remain informed of all-campus
policy maters. The AB does not make policy
or issue rulings.
While the AB makes recommendations
only to the President, it should also serve
all constituent groups on campus. Should
it fail in this regard, the AB should b~
changed or abolished by recommendation
from a campus-wide meeting set for that
purpose.
Because the faculty and staff constituencies are organized intn their own governing bodies, such as the FaCUlty Agenda
Committee, and while the Rtaff are unionized, the problem of student governance is
one which primarily affects only students.
Vice President for Student Mfairs · Gail
Martin states that "The evolution of governance" is still taking p!ace on campus. She
adds that although in the past individual
students "have been involved in virtually .
100% of committees," a problem arises
because not enough of the collective student
voice is heard.
"Individual students may feel like they've
had no effect, as though they are invisible,"she says. Martin has been working in
conjunction with the Student Communications Center (SCC) to solicit student opinion
on governance, and this process will continue throughout the semester. By
December 15 it is hoped that progress will
be made toward the formation of a
"legitimized" student voice; at this time

Martin indicated that it is unclear whether
or not she will call for a Governance DTF
to be held on this issue, although it is an
option.
A survey conducted by Information for
Action during the Spring 1986 semester
questioned students on various methods of
governance, and the results showed that only 6% would support the establishment of
a traditional elected student government;
one third would prefer something along the
lines of a town meeting; another third liked a vote of all students; a final third liked
the idea of delegates chosen from various
student coalitions or groups (CPJ 6-5-86).
Such surveys will continue to be used by
the SCC, and other forums are in the planning process, to be implmented when more
students arrive on campus.
Another opportunity for expression of individual opinion is presently available to all
students by participation in campus
meetings such as the upcoming President's
Student Convocation to be held on Wednesday September 24 from 10:30 am until noon
on the second floor of the library. At the
meeting the agenda will include
Evergreen's budget requests and its
Strategic Plan; presentations will be made
by President Olander, Vice PresidentProvost Patrick Hill, Vice President for
Student Mfairs Gail Martin, and Vice President for Development and Administrative
Services Sue Washburn.

Attempted Social
Contract revision
meets with student
disapproval
A proposed grievance document written
by Gail Martin, Vice President for Student
Affairs, was scrutinized by students this
past summer. The form of the flrst available
draft caused an uproar, as it was connected
to the Social Contract.
Students met with Gail to voice their opinion that this action was injurious to the
nature of the Social Contract, and to express their intense dissatisfaction over
what they saw as an attempt to push a major document through during the summer
when there could not be a legitimate
debate. Gail responded by guaranteeing
that the Social Contract would remain untouched and would not be amended. She
also stated that she would wait for
legitimate revision by students before
authorizing a final draft. She added that
getting it passed this summer was not an
objective. Gail offered an explanation of
why the docun:.ent was needed in the flrst

place. There are unwritten procedures that
occur, she said, which need to be
documented. Also, the Social Contract
needs further explanation to work effectively in all cases.
The next draft which came out was not
connected to the Sodal Contract. Students
met on their own for discussion, and some
wrote or met separately with Gail. The biggest concern with the proposed document,
by far, was the prohibited conduct section.
Many felt such negative rules went against
the Evergreen grain, or at least that the
prohibited conduct was so vague that its
fairness was questionable.
A positive outcome of the meetings was
an agreement with Gail to include mediation as a mandatory first step in the
grievance process. It was also agreed by all
that the written and unwritten grievance
processes for the community as a whole
need reviewing.
Gail asked Mary Lou Feneli, a legal expert and Vice President for Student Affairs
at PLU, to speak with students on the
legalities of producing a grievance document. On September 10, Mary Lou met
with ten students to discuss how to work
with the system to either change it or accomplish goals. A tape of her talk is
available at the Student Communications
Center, LIB 3231, x6008.
Gail will produce a new draft for review
in October. She would like students to write
and speak with her about this issue. An oppOltune time for this would be at her Monday noon meeting in LIB 3236. Students
are also encouraged to put forth their OW11
gdevance documents for discussion. Copies
of the 13iest draft are available in the Student Communications Center or the Information Center. The October draft will be
posted on the Govemance Board as soon as
it is out.

Childcare at
Evergreen undergoes
changes
Evergreen's daycare system is starting
the year with a new location,coordinator
and name after years of debate over the
quality of the program.
The Evergreen Child Care Center will
open on September 29. It will be housed in
the remodeled ceramics studio located
beyond the Communications Building, with
a path leading to parking lot C. The new
building is bigger and sectioned to facilitate
separate actiyities with the older and
younger children simultaneously. It is also
closer to campus.
Some students voiced concern last spring
about the possibility of residue pottery
glaze in the soil surrounding the building
being a health hazard. The soil was tested,
and lea.d and other chemicals were found
in small amounts. The Health Department
recommended that the top soil be removed and replaced and asphalt placed over the
worst area, and this was done. Al
Whitehead, who is reputedly familiar with
the procedures and dumpsites at the
Ceramics studio, advised on the cleanup.
Parent's Center Coordinator Richard Siddoway felt that the measures taken were
adequate and that parents should not be
concerned. although he wanted follow-up
testing done in the months to ~ome. "The
chemicals came from mop buckets with bits
of glaze being dumped," he said. Stone
Thomas, dean in charge of childcare, and
Evergreen Childcare Center teacher Laura
Olson agreed that the site would be safe.
The Center 'Will provide daycare, scheduled irregular care, and occasional emergency care. It will be funded and staffed for up
to 30 children at one time, although the
facilities could accommodate 40.
Evergreen is currently searching for a
new coordinator; last year's coordinator
Virginia Brian resigned this summer.
Deadline for applications is September 30
and the new staff member will be hired by
October 15.
Stone Thomas described what the hiring
board would be looking for. "In response
to what students have voiced as their needs
in the past years, we are looking for someone who can design programs and curriculum to further and enhance intellectual
and social development of little people at
the center. Also, someone who can work
with the ,academic component of the college
to develop internship opportunities at the
. centel~," he said.
"I'd like to see someody that's interested
in providing children with the same basic

philosophy that Evergreen has. Somebody
that wants to upgrade childcare, and provide more skills for parents and the staff.
Someone enthusiastic," said Laura Olson,
head teacher at the childcare center.
The coordinator will be required to have
45 credits in Early Childhoood Education
and extensive experience with budgeting
and money management.
The Center will be open from 8 a.m. to
5 p.m. for regular care' and from 5:45 p.m.
to 9:45 p.m. on Tuesdays and Thursdays for
drop-in care. Free childcare for special
events will also be provided at the site. For
the first week, emergency drop-in care will
be available in the Lecture Hall rotunda
from 8 to 5.
Laura Olson, head teacher, will be running the day care until the director is hired,
with the help of Stone Thomas and Richard
Siddoway. She will be hiring a student staff;
interested students can contact her at
x6061.
This year, the Center ' will have a
preschool slant in the morning, with naps,
quiet time, and free time in the afternoon.
The younger children and older children
will have separate activities, and a workstudy person will be hired to do activities
with the three year olds specifically designed for their developmental needs. New programs will be implemented; for instance,
Laura would like to arrange for Senior
Citizen volunteers to come in and read
stories to children.
"Stone is working really hard at making
childcare better; Gail (Gail Martin, Vice
President of Student Affairs) is too. There's
definitely some footdragging in the administration, but we have some allies working hard, with real concern for parents and
children--that is not unanimous in the whole
administratiun," Richard concluded.

Rainier pulls out,
•
cash machine fills In
Evergreen banking services have changed again with the closure of the new Rainier
Bank in the CAB and the introduction of
its replacement, the Automatic Teller
Machine (ATM), stationed outside the
bookstore. The machine was installed
August 1 by Rainier Bank, which bought
out South Sound Bank last spring. The
change from the convenience of human
tellers to the machine involves many service changes, and may mean initial confusion for members of the Evergreen
community.
The machine will enable Rainier checking and savings customers to make cash

withdr~wals,

deposits, payments and to
transfer funds. Unfortunately, the machine
cannot cash checks, so during regular
Cashier Office hours (Monday through Friday, 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.) cashier personnel will
be able to cash Guaranteed Student Loan
checks, Emergency Loan checks, Financial
Aid checks, and college payroll checks.
Neither the machine nor the Cashier's Office will cash personal checks. To do this,
one must go to a Rainier branch. The
nearest one is at 910 Black Lake Boulevard.
This branch is not on the bus line from
Evergreen. There is also a Rainier Bank
downtown at 402 S. Capitol Way.
If the ATM malfunctions, as it did on payday in August only 2 weeks after its installment, someone must call the Black Lake
Blvd. Branch personnel and inform them of
the breakdown. They will contact Seattle
repairpersons to come fix it. The ATM is
designed to last five years.
On campuses elsewhere around the country, alternatives to corporate banking have
been successful. 'Undergraduates have
establ;shed federally insured credit unions
at 12' colleges nationwide, including UC
Berkeley, UC Boulder, and Georgetown
University. The banking operations vary,
with some providing basic savings and
checking accounts, and others providing
personal loans. At Georgetown, the
student-initiated banking service even
enables tuition loans of up to $6,500.

Evergreen activists

Three Evergreen students were arrested July 30 for bloci<ading a logging road
to protest the sale of a timber site harboring a rare species of owL Three other activists were arrested as well. The protestors were taken to the Kittitas County
Jail and released on bond several days later,
after being charged with criminal trespass.
The timber sale is located in the Cle
Ellum district of the Wenatchee National
Forest. The Washington Department of
Game and the Seattle Audobon Society filed a protest and a request to stay any logging activities, but were denied. The
demonstration W;iS organized by

ANALYS I S

Plotting a Course:
Assessing Evergreen's Direction

by Jennifer Seymore
The fall of 1986 will be a tremendously vital period for. the
students of Evergreen. What occurs will become part of the hist0I?'
of the college; the actions we take will determine how our OP.Inions are represented and dealt with in decision-making at thIS
school for some time to come.
The 1980's have been an extremely important time in the short
history of Evergreen. The college has been re~ognized a~d applauded by the national media, causing an explosIOn of apphca~ts,
proving our worth and success to the legislature and the regIOn,
and eradicating the cloud Evergreen operated under for ten years:
threat of closure.
Now, we are safe, in a sense.
In another, we are not. Our
already delicate identity as a
community has been threatened; since it 'has been no longer
necessary to defend Evergreen
from external forces, more of
our attention has been directed
inward, toward the inner workings of the college itself. We
are examining the college's
goals
and
priorities,
establishing whose opinions
count in determining those
goals, and forging a systelp. of
college governance. There has
been considerable tension,
unrest, accusation and protest
in relation to these matters.
The direction of the college is
perhaps the most talked-about
issue on campus, and opinions
are wide-ranging. Many
students make reference to the
Good Old Days (whether they
were here or not): Evergreen's
formative years, when students helped design the curriculum,
when faculty members were fierce and inspired. When Evergreen
meant idealism, and was a place for society's "misfits" and
"creative thinkers." When the community held at least one clear,
common purpose: to keep the college alive.
The character of Evergreen, the feel of it, has unquestionably
changed in the last fifteen years. But are we right to wax sentimental over what faculty member Tom Rainey referred to in
1976 as Evergreen's "heroic age?" And is the assumption t~at
we are somehow moving away from those original ideals--beconung
more mainstream, too self-assured, less vital--is this assumption
correct? How do we tell?
To state a case concerning a feeling the student body may 01'
may not have, we must speak the language of history. Facts a~d
figures are weighty and substantial, and they do not age and dIe.
When we know our history and speak its language, we are
empowered, and our capacity to discuss and effect change is in-

creased by our knowledge.
The following is a summary of research into Evergreen's enrollment trends and statistics, recruitment literature, curriculum
development, governance history, cultural diversity, and the campus climate and issues, as reported, parodied and editorialized
about in the Cooper Point Journal (formerly The Paper) over the
last fifteen years. Included are reflections and questions which
came to mind during the research and writing process. Please take
the facts and figures into your own hands and use them to the
best of your abilities.

were scampering around like mad trying to scrape up students
and College Relations was doing its best to make society stop
hating us. Sure enough, enrollment started to climb again, shot
up a couple hundred in '80 to 2,568, and has been rising ever since.
This fall we are looking at a head-count of just over 3,000. This
is different from FTE enrollment, which means full-time students,
and this is different from Annual Average FTE, which is head
count divided by the average number of credits. That is what we're
funded for. Our AA FTE for '86-'87 is 2,600, and is expected to
jump to 3,200 in the next 2 years. That's a big jump, but Evergreen
still can't take all the applications people are dishing out.
When the media went ga·ga over the place a couple years ago,
everybody and their mother sent in an application to Evergreen.
Last spring, the people at Admissions were forced to scoot their
closing date up into early May for Fall admission, and still had
to turn away 32% of those that made it. This means. of course,
that some stiff criteria are being used to decide who is and who

When Evergreen opened its
doors in 1971, it had no doors.
Actually, it did, but classes
were held off campus, or in
trailers and ditches and things.
During this romantic period,
full time enrollment (FTE) was
at 1,121 with 6.6% minority
enrollment and almost 200
more male than female
students. It jumped to 1977 the
next year and continued to
grow until 1975 when it fell like
a ton of bricks for three years.

' isn't Greener material. When I asked Arnaldo Rodriguez, head
of Enrollment Services, about this, he said, "The college has had
the same criteria since the beginning ... From 1978 up to '82 we
were able to accept many more students who had not done very
well when we felt there was something about the individual that
made them a good risk." These are the "conditional admits," and
this year Evergreen accepted 125 of them. "Because of the enrollment there will continue to be smaller numbers", said Arnaldo.
" It's been much more difficult to offer admission to students in
that category when you have many more applicants that meet the
stated criteria." This is a concern for many people, including the
administration. Arnaldo sketched out the college's present
strategy for dealing with the situation: "Evergreen will evaluate
its current admissions criteria during the next academic year.
Then, I think, we will think about, 'Who is it that should be coming to Evergreen?' " Issues of personal concern to Arnaldo were:
--Do we want more high school or transfer students?
--Do we want more special students and part time students?
--Do we want more people of color, and if so, how do we handle
that?
--To what level do we want to have conditional admits?
"I hope we are able to say in some way--clearly--how we expect
people to be prepared for the education here," said Arnaldo.
There has been a 116% increase in the number of high school
directs from 1978 to 1985, plus a little more this fall. However,
the percentage of enrolled students aged 17·22 has gone down 11%
in the last ten years; High school non-directs have gone down
34.4% in that time. So, the overwhelming majority of students
in the 17·22 age bracket are coming to Evergreen straight out of
high school. This is a much talked-about issue here at Evergreen;
most of the people I encountered researching this article had
something to say about it. Steve Hunter, Director of Institutional
Research, thought it probably had something to do with Admissions' early closing date, since transfers tend to apply later. Arnaldo Rodrigues said, " The character of the college has changed
and will continue to change, by the fact that more people are coming directly from high school.. We have gained the confidence of
young people."
But contrary to popular belief, the Enrollment Coordinating Committee (made up of Arnaldo, the Vice President for Student Affairs, the Vice President for Development, the Dean of Student
Development, Steve Hunter, and two faculty. Mark Clemens of
Information Services called it "a marketing committee") is not
attempting a teenage takeover; projections for 1988 enrollment
show only a 6.6% growth in the 17-22 area, with jumps of approximately 28% in the 23-29, and 30 plus age groups, and 100 more>
students over 30 than under 22. Back in 1976 President Charles
McCann hoped for a 15-25% level of freshman directs, saying "we
wouldn't want halfthe people around here wearing beanies."Last
,
fall we hit 22 percent.
Fun facts about 1976·1986 enrollment:
• In 1979, 139 of the freshman were out-of-staters, and only 62
of them Washingtonians. The price hike for out-of-state students
reversed this trend over the years; this fall we expect almost three
times as many Washington high school graduates as we do outof-staters.
• Ten years ago 34.5% of the Fall head count were transfers;
this fall we can expect only 27% to be coming from other institu·
tions of higher education, half from community colleges.
• There are 5.6% more women than men students this fall; there
were 2% more men than women in 1976. The college expects this
trend to continue, with 5.7% the projected figure for fall 1988.
• The real change in profile in the last ten years has been seen
in the student population over 30. Ten years ago, they made up
21.4% of the head count; this fall, the figure is 35.2%. The college
anticipates further growth here, jumping to 37% in 1988.

\

• Thurston County high sch.ool directs have increased by 127%
from 1978-1985.
What Are We Learning?
In 1975, two very important DTF's were formed which gave
the Evergreen curriculum much of its current form: short-range
and long-range curriculum planning DTFs met to respond to
problems in Evergreen's loosely designed curriculum format. The
short-range DTF planned curriculum for 1976-1977 and some of
1977-1978, based on students' stated needs, while the long range
DTF came up with something called Interdisciplinary Specialty
Areas, as a way of organizing the programs offered and helping
to make sure that a cohesive plan of education was offered in each,
including a pathway from basic to advanced studies. Some of the
first Specialty Areas still exist, such as "Expressive Arts," "Environmental Studies," and "Management in the Public Interest."
Others have been obliterated altogether, such as "Marine Sciences
and Crafts". "European and American Studies" became
"Humanities," "Human Development in its Social Context" and
"Individual and Community Health" combined to form "Health
and Human Behavior". At the time, there was some fear that the
Specialty Areas would make Evergreen too "departmentalized."
At that time, Core programs were known as Basic programs.
Eight of the fourteen offered in 1977 ran for 2 quarters or less;
four of them emphasized the arts or creative work.
In 1977, student initiated group contracts and program proposals
were frequent; in addition, curriculum planning occurred during
fall quarter for the next fall (before 1976 even later!) so student
input on the proposals was generated before they were finalized.
In October of 1976 the student Curriculum Consultative Group
surveyed students' responses to posted curriculum proposals.
Another feature of the 1977 curriculum which added flexibility
was the existence of Annual Programs. "Annuals" existed for
three reasons: l)To respond to short-term needs, such as strong
student originated proposals, 2)As a seedbed for experiments, i.e.
novel combinations of subjects, and 3)To meet small scale special
needs such as rounding out preparation for graduate school. In
1977, eleven of these were offered, ranging from "AAS of India
and Japan" to "Mathematics as a Design Tool." Annuals went out
of existence in 1984-1985 as a result of a decision made by a long
range curriculum planning DTF.
A~ademic Dean Barbara Smith said, "They basically ended
oecause some of the things they used to do, such as language
studies, became separate areas." Their function as generators of
new programmatic ideas was taken over by the Specialty Areas
themselves.
What are students' current feelings about the direction of our
curriculum? According to last year's Information for ActiOlI
Survey, 53% of those who responded believed Evergreen's approach to education is "becoming more like most colleges," while
72% said their reason for coming to Evergreen was "as an altern.a~ive to normal college." 70% of those surveyed said student partICIpation in designing the curriculum should be increased.
An important trend in the college which the Strategic Planning
Council recognized last year is that our faculty, as a whole, are
growing older. The council made proposals to hire more juniorlevel faculty for financial reasons-owe pay them less--and in order
to retain continuity in cWTIculum planning. One student noted that
the predomination of older faculty members has greatly changed
the nature of faculty-student interaction over the years.
Evergreen continues to face an arts/sciences split which is
generating resentment in some circles; the IF A survey shows that
almost 60% of us believe that there are areas which receive less
than a fair share of support here, and the lI1a,iority of these respondants named Expressive Arts as the area most neglected. On the
090

word

U

other hand 20% believe some areas receive more than a fair share
of support; the area most often named was Science, Technology
and Health.
As recently as 1981, Evergreen was offering 13 pro?Tams in the
Expressive Arts; this year there are five. Twenty-sIX programs
will be offered in Science, Technology and Health, and Environmental Studies. This situation will undoubtedly affect the
types of students Evergreen will a~tr~ct incoming years; if ~e
cannot offer a comprehensive educatIOn m the arts, our communIty
will not have as many artists.
An interesting IF A survey item shows that only 19% of
respondents believe the "needs of t~e people. o~ Southwe~t
Washington" should be most important m determmmg academic
policies here at Evergreen; the. Strategic Plan r.epe~tedly .emphasizes our obligation to the regIon. It appears thiS w.lll. contmue
to be a point of contention between students and admmlstrators,
as it has been in the past.

In the 1975-1977 college bulletin, Evergreen outlined its Governance structure as coordinating the Information Center, the
President's Forum, and the College Sounding Board to infor~
students, and "make recommendations for action as issues pertinent to the college arise." The Sounding Board, made up of the
President, appointees of the vice-presidents and fIfteen students
selected by their peers, served as a "consultative po~l...where
discussion and advice on issues affecting various areas m the college can be heard and needs for coordination can ?e. aire? "
Decision-making however, "will take place at the admmlstratlve
level closest to those affected by the particular decision."
This fall. the Information Center will expand its role by working with the newly formed Student Communicati?ns Center, funded by SeA. The President's Forum met occassIOnally last ye.ar,
and was generally the scene of wide-ranging debate. The Soundmg
Board no longer exists; since the dissolution of the Evergreen
Council by President Olander in January 1986, no such larg~ and
central committee has been in place. Students last year claimed
that their connections to decision-making were defus:d. Curre~t­
ly, there is a President's Advisory Board of approxlmately nme
regular members; their meetings are ?pen. However, .they have
not yet been utilized in the same capacity as the Souncilng Board,
according to Student Communications Center staff person, Yolanda Lake.
Disappearing Task Forces (DTF's) have ren:ained the central
method for dealing with specific issues. PreSident Olander has
presented the student body with a (some say flexible) ~e~ember
15 deadline to formulate a proposal on how they Will Involve
themselves in the goVe111anCe process_ If they do not meet the
deadline, a structure \\rill be formulated for them.
Twenty-five DTF's met during the 1974-1975 school year an?
discussed issues including Music Study, Pregnancy and Mate~m­
ty Leaves, Space Planning, Working Climate, Staff EducatIO,n
Benefits and Administrative Procedure. Last year only ten DTF s
met. Smoking, Academic Advising, Governance, and sexual.harassment were among the other topics dealt with. The StrategIc Planning and the Faculty Hiring DTF s will continue on this year.
Last year's Information for Action survey reve~led that 89%
of respondants believe that Wednesday should remam governance
day--no classes between 10:30 a.m. and 5:00 p.m.:-or that th,ese
restrictions should be better enforced. Yet scheduhng constramts
brought on by higher enrollment will threaten Wednesday's status,
say Yolanda Lake and Cheryl Cowan of the ~CC ..
Opinions were widely split about the manner In ",,:hlch st~de~ts
should organize politically, reflicting the current dlsorgamzatIOn
in this matter. No pronounced majority emerged when respon-

dants chose between an open "town meeting" system, decision
making by referendum, or a coalition system with decisions made
by delegates after consultation with their constituencies. Yet, only
14% of respondants were satisfied with the current level of political
organization among students; 40% didn't know:
The fact that so many students "don't know" or have no opinion is a vital one. Cheryl Cowan of the SCC manintains that this
is due less to apathy than lack of information, a condition the SCC
hopes to remedy this year through several methods of information distribution, an effort the CPJ hopes to augment.
It would seem that governance is, and has been in the past, the
major issue facing the college community, one that has yet to be
resolved in a manner satisfactory to all concerned.

Evergreen's "marketing strategy," its recruiting publications
and their tone, has changed radically over the years. The first
bulletins were small affairs, "homemade," as Mark Clemens of
Information Services refers to them.
The content of the early and mid-seventies bulletins stressed
the fact the Evergreen was a college "in the process"and "still
developing." The pressure the college was encountering from
society is apparent in the language of the catalogs. "This first
catalog is Evergreen's attempt, as a new and responsible institution, to explain itself to its prospective students, to their parents
and friends, and to the people of the state who support it." At
that time, bulletins appeared well before the catalog, supplements
which contained ac.tual curriculum listings; consequently, a couple hundred pages was spent more or less explaining the place.
Today, the catalog is a slick, professional publication, full of
gorgeous photos, Olander's catch phrases, and an abundance of
little shapes, splashes, splurts and other graphic elements of the
'eighties. It wins all kinds of awards. But an even bigger difference
is the sense that Evergreen is no longer on the defensive. It is
proud and sure of itself, perhaps even a little arrogant. Mark .
Clemens said, "I don't think the content of the catalog has changed much in the last six years, except now it's not so much that
we're different as that we're strong and good." When asked who
the new-style literature is aimed at, Mark replied "I think we've
always tried to be a little college that appeals to everyone ... though
it is a possibility that students may be corning for the catalog cover
rather than the catalog content."

Where To?
What has changed most at Evergreen, radically and unquestoningly, is its self-image. A sense of confidence, permanence, and
maturity has settled over the college, for better or for worse. But
while we have received praise from the national media and a certain acceptance from the region's residents and legislators, David
Brewster, editor-in chief of "The Weekly." wrote in Novembf>r
that the college "seemed tired, not rejuvenated ... Campus life is
dull." Though he cites lack of adequate funding as greatly responsible for Evergreen's problems, Brewster may have picked up on
aspects of community life which many here already recognize.
"There is no central place for the community to come together,"
said Yolanda Lake of the SCC, "There used to be many more
campus-wide events."
On the other hand, consider these comments by students who
chose not to come to Evergreen nine years ago:

The issue of community identity will become a more difficult
one as the college grows larger; the Final Report of the Strategic
Planning Committee, released August 7, states that:"The growth '
of the college has the potential of undermining not only the fragile
sense of community, but also the effectiveness of our teaching,
the quality of our work, and the sense of inclusion. The sense of
community at the institution has derived from four sources: from
smallness, from the excitement and energy of building something
new, from the atmosphere of besiegement which made all of our
differences seem less important than our common fate and from
a resource base which (though inadequate) made it unnecessary
to ask, 'What is more important than what?' All four conditions
have changed and the energy which flowed from them is
diminished. "

Proposals from the committee range from "preserve small scale
learning communities ...as the central mode of instruction" to "seek
legislative funding for a facility capable of hosting large
meetings/functions for campus/off-campus groups" (Pick up your
copy of the Strategic Plan in the SCC office, or the Info. Center).

_In 1973, 89% of clerical workers were women; currently the
figure still stands around 87%. 45% is the stated goal.
-39% of our service workers were Third World last year. In 1973
the figure was 11.5%. Our goal still stands as 15%.
-The 1985 Mfirmative Action Report states that, "Although we
have successfully reached or exceeded long term goals in some
areas, we acknowledge that additional effort is necessary to accomplish all our objectives."
The Issues
Judging from the CPJ archives, the issues have remained the
same to a large extent: curriculum flexibility vs. rigidity, TESC's
commitment to governance, CAB use, "selling-out," cultural diversity, sense of community, or lack thereof. The role of the arts here
at Evergreen, academic advising, dogs on Red Square. The only
issue which seems to have more or less disappeared is the threat
of closure; we are finally on our feet.
The fact that we are repeatedly faced with the same questions
would suggest that: A) the problems may be rooted in the nature
of the college, and, B) that we must continually examine what has
gone before in order to gain perspective on the actions we take.
I t is sometimes difficult for students to hold this perspective
because they are usually temporary members of the community.
This fall is a crucial time for students; we will decide how to
organize and/or represent ourselves in relation to campus issues.
It would seem vital that we, as a student body, make a concerted
effort to grasp the development of Evergreen in all its aspects
as we attempt to define our role as advocates and decision makers.
Our comprehension of our past enables us to direct the history
we are making.

ANALYSIS

S&A Issues, 1987

by R. Paul Tyler
Every quarter Evergreen students are
charged seventy dollars, as part of their tuition costs, for Service and Activities Fee
Review Board, or S&A Board. Some of the
money is dedicated to services that have
fIxed costs, such as the salaries of the
Recreation Center or user-fees for the
CAB. However, a lot of the money is loose
and is distributed to various groups and
programs at the discretion of the S&A
Board. While the administration may make
suggestions or negotiate for certain programs, the final approval of the S&A
Board's recommendations lies with the
Board of Trustees.
The S&A Board is comprised of six
students, one staff person, and one faculty
person .. .if one can be found who will take
on the task. The tenure of. any board
member is limited to one year. It is a
volunteer position that takes a lot of time
and commitment and carries a lot of responsibility. The following paragraphs are
synopses of some of the issues that last
year's board addressed and that this year's
board may also have to tackle.
Student Group Office Move
Perhaps the most far-reaching item on
the board's agenda will be where to move
the student groups that now have their offIces on the third floor of the library and
how to pay for the move. S&A has a commitment fro)11 the college to use the library
offices until 1991, but the sooner the space
is freed up for other uses, the happier the
administration will be. Since the early
1970's the administration has been lobbying to have a new addition built on to the
CAB. In addition to providing offices for
student groups, this addition would also include some recreational space, room for an
expansion of the bookstore, and extra room
for dining facilities. It would be financed by
selling bonds that would be redeemed with
S&A fees. At every other campus in the
state, student fees are used to finance such
building projects. At Evergreen, however,
there is no student union building or dining hall. Consequently, a large portion of
the S&A fee goes to fund such groups and
activities as the Women's Center, Thursday Night Films, and the Cooper Point
Journal.

Last year's board questioned whether
building a new addition was the only solution to this problem, but did not come up
with any other option. If such a project
were undertaken it could dramatically cut
the amount of money available for the
numerous small groups that thrive at
Evergreen. This would have a serious impact on the climate of cultural diversity and
the development of student leaders at this
school. Unless some alternative is conceived and implemented it is possible that the
cultural and political freedom that
Evergreen student body has enjoyed in the
past may be hamstrung for generations to
come.
Cofunding
The S&A Board funds several programs
jointly with the college. These include the
Recreation Center, Intercollegiate
Athletics, The Organic Farm, Driftwood
Daycare, the Women's Clinic, the Van
System, KAOS, the CPJ, and a new program, the Student Communications Center.
Last year's board took issue with the
legitimacy and level of the confunding arrangement for several of these groups.
Intercollegiate Athletics
Intercollegiate Athletics first received
support from S&A in 1980. At first the ·
board declined to support lA, but was informed by the administration, which then
had veto power over the boardis recommendations, that a budget which did not include
such support would be unacceptable. An increase in the S&A fee made the pill a little
easier for the boal'd to swallow because
they were able to fund IA and maintain the
support level for previously funded groups.
The board pays for uniforms, equipment,
and student trainers.
Last year's board, facing something of a
budget crisis, created quite a stir when
some board members tried to zero out the
Intecollegiate Athletics budget. Board
members also questioned the fairness of
providing additional support to student
athletes who already receive over $700 of
support from the state for every participant
in Evergreen team sports. After long, often
acrimonious negotiations, the board
relented somewhat and funded Intercollegiate Athletics for $14,000, a cut of
~7 .O()() from the orevious year.

The Organic Farm
The Organic Farm came to S&A Board
with a request that the board increase its
level of support for the farm coordinator.
Previous boards had declined to do so on
the basis that the farm coordinator was
responsible to the administration, not S&A.
In addition, such a salary increase would
mean an additional expense to the board
that could not be cut in the future. The
board agreed during the tentative allocation to fund the salary increase. However,
when the budget needed to be balanced
during the final allocation, the farm coordinator's salary was one of the first things
to fall under the budget-cutting knife.
Daycare
S&A has always borne the brunt of financing ~vergreen's aaycare programs. Last
year the price tag went up when the board
agreed to fund drop-in daycare along with
the full-time daycare at Driftwood. Part of
the enticement for doing this were repeated
assurances from the administration that the
legislative climate was such that additional
day care money was more likely to become
available in the next year or two and that
the administration would be actively seeking to increase the level of its support.
However, by the time spring allocations arrived, no additional operational funds had
been fIrmed up by the administration. This
created some hard feelings among some
board members. The board finally did agree
to fund both drop-in and full-time daycare
at last year's levels.
GESCCO
That's the acronym for Greater
~vergreen
Student
Community
Cooperative Organization. During the midyear allocation process several students
made a proposal for a student-run,
downtown community center. Noting the
large number of students that live off campus and the lack of cooperation and
understanding that had traditionally existed between Evergreen and the Olympia
community, they suggested GESCCO as a
way to bring the Evergreen community and
Olympia together by providing a space for
a broad array of cultural events. The Board
questioned the need, the cost, and the accountability of GESCCO, but finally approved the proiect.

During the spring allocation, however,
the board declined to give GESCCO money
for sponsoring events. It was felt by some
board members that GESCCO should function as a resource for other groups, and not
as a production company . .The GESCCO
representatives argued that one third of the
requested honorarium was for sound and
lighting costs for other groups and that the
remaining amount was needed to allow
students unaffiliated with any special interest group on campus the opportunity to
sponor activities of interest to the
community. .
Women's Clinic;:
Part of students' tuition fees goes to support the college Health Services. In addition, S&A provides money for a Women's
Clinic. This project was started during the
'seventies when it was felt that the special
health needs of women were not being adequately addressed by H~alth Services.
While last year's board did not question the
neeLi for the service, some members did
wonder if it ~as being funded from the proper source. Smce there is already a Health
Service fee, wouldn't it make more sense
to unify the cost and administration? And
if this is not done, is it because there is a
degree of bias somewhere in the funding cycle of Health Services? The Board f:mded
the.Women's Clinic, but these questions remam unanswered.
Van System
S&A helps pay the costs for the
Evergreen Van. Two issues arose during
last year's meetings. The first had to do
with overcharges to S&A. Last year it was
discovered that the motor pool had been
charging S&A 35 cents a mile for the van.
The charge should have been 15 cents a
mile. The charge was reduced, but it is
unclear how long S&A had been overcharged and whether the money could be
recaptured.

Th.e second. issue is linked to Housing's
contmued pohcy of overbooking dormitory
space. Housing plans to put about 100
students in an off-campus apartment complex because there is not enough room in
the dormitories to fulfill their obligations
to students. They requested that S&A provide the money,to run vans to the apartmentcomplex. They estimate that the
r~~enue generated should equal S&A's addItIonal contribution. The Board approved
the request, but had some serious concerns
about the policy of overbooking, and
whether S&A's allocation constitutes a subsid~ to Housing or to Conferenc~ Services,
whIch leases do~mitory rooms for foreign
students atten?mg the English langauge
school housed In the Seminar BUilding.
Daycare Move
The S&A Board and the administration
have agreed to remodel the ceramics studio
near the heating plant for use as a new
day care center. However, after the funding
was approved, some board members
be~a~e concerned about the safety of the
buildmg. In the past it was used as a
ceramics studio and it was feared that the
building and the grounds might be contaminated by the glazes and dyes used at
the studio. The board requested that an enviromental examination be performed on
the building and the grounds. The study
was completed during the summer and the
facility was given a clean bill of health.
Crew
During mid-year allocations a number of
students and Rec Center staff came to the
board requesting funds to purchase boats
for a crew team. The board was concerned
that.a small group of elite athletes would
dommate the shells to the exclusion of the
rest of the Evergreen community. The
c~ew. supporters presented a petition, indICatmg a desire to row, signed by over one

hundred students. The board app;oved an
allocation of $4,000 for the purchase of rowing shells with the stipUlation that they be
made available fIrst and foremost for
recreational rowers.
Governance
The S&A Board is probably the most influential student organization on a campus
where student governanace is in a state of
disarray. Last year there were some atte~~ts to include students in Evergreen's
pohtlCal structure through the creation of
a President's Advisory Board. In addition
student representatives sit on variou~
boards and task forces. But the S&A Board
is the only body in which students constitute a majority and where they have
fIscal and policy powers.
However, the legitimacy and accountabilit~ of the board is debatable. Usually, findmg students who are willing to take the
ti~e and ~urr.er the headaches that go along
WIth t~e?o? IS a rather difficult task. Many
years It IS Just a matter of going up to the
S&A Coordinator and saying "I want in."
While the guidelines for board selection are
very sketchy, the board is in better shape
than the rest of student governance at
Evergreen. At least there are some
guidelines for peer selection by the S&A
Board. For the re"t (Jf the student governance positions there was no formal
guidelines for representational selection at
all. The fInal choice can be made by college
administrators if they so choose.
President Olander has made it clear that
he wants more formal student governance
policies to be established this year. If the
E~ergreen student body does not come up
WIth a workable solution, then the administration is likely to impose one that it
feel.s will be adequate. Whatever happens,
untIl a new system is established the S&A
board is likely to remain the most influential student organization on campus.

Housing processes
record numbers
A record avalanche of applications has
buried Evergreen's student housing
department. The staff, led by directGr Jeannie Chandler, is coping efficiently.
To accomodate some of the overflow,
housing has leased space for 104 students,
mostly freshmen, at Woodland Green, an
apartment complex near Mark-N-Pak
West. Two student managers were hired
to live there in addition to the Woodland
Green employees.

Students were assigned according to the
dates their applications were received, with
earlier applicants given the rooms of their
choice or other rooms on campus. For the
first time, Housing turned away
applicants--120 of them.
The dorms and modular housing units,
called mods, are overassigned by 38 people;
the extras are in two-person studios and
mods. However, every year approximately that many students don't show up or
drop out immediately.
One reason for the crunch is that an
unusual 64 per cent of this year's residents
are returning from last year. Jeannie attributes. this partly to the younger age of
many students, and also to improved quality in student managers.
Housing residents pay an average of $170
a quarter, utilities included. Jeannie said
that the price was "fairly competitive" and
that Housing was completely selfsupporting. Summer conferences and the
EF program help keep costs down for
residents; unfortunately, unidentified vandals drive the prices up again.
Evergreen may have new apartmentstyle dorms by fall of 1987, if the Department of Education approves Housing's application for a federal loan. The college will
be notified in mid-October.

Cleanup continues
I n your wanderings about campus,
you've probably noticed some of Facilities'
168 projects currently underway. These are
projects funded from capital budgets which
are specifically allocated to Evergreen to
restore the buildings, grounds, HVAC, and
utility systems. Budget cuts over the last
few years have reduced funds available in
Facilities' operating budgets to a point
where they have not been able to keep up
on maintenance.
The largest project underway is the
upgrading of the fire alarm system, a
$994,000 project. When the state of
Washington implemented new energy
management practices, the college reduced the hours of heating and ventilation in
the buildings. Since the fire protection
system was part of the heating/ventilation
system, this action decreased the operation
of the fire protection systems to only 8 to
12 hours a day. New detectors, alarms, annunciators, and fire alarm panels are being

installed in all campus buildings, providing
24 hour fire protection for the campus.
The Communications Lab, Labs I and II,
the Central Utility Plant, Maintenance
. Shop, Garage, and Pump Station will all

receive new roofs during the next three
months. Estimated cost is $532,000.
The staff at facilities have also been working hard weeding the entire campus, sanding and painting handrails and trashcans,

cleaning and sealing the exteriors of
buildings, fixing chinks in sidewalks and
brickwork, resurfacing the tennis courts,
clearing the storm drain and ditches, painting interiors, replacing the library carpet,
installing more handicapped parking, and
remodelling the new child care center.
Some buildings and exterior doors have
never been repainted and are being
restored to their original condition. The
dragon mural in the Library stairwell is
also getting a lift. This mural was a special
project completed by a group of students
and a faculty member with materials supplied by Plant Operations. Induction units
and vents are being cleaned to conserve
energy. Chuckholes which pose a serious
safety hazard to joggers and bicyclists will
be repaired. Catch basins will be installed
to catch water running across sidewalks
between the Communications Lab and the
Central Utility Plant. And have you noticed that the clocks on the clock tower all indicate the same time?

Downtown is another thing
altogether. Currently, two cultures
are in conflict here: the new breed
of urban-renewal minded merchants, and the city's young
unusuals in search of diversion and
a better hang-out spot. You'll be
sure to encounter a crowd of them
when you climb off the bus a 4th
and Columbia. In general, they're
fine young folks who wouldn't hurt
fleas, but the merchants claim that
mohawks and leather frighten away
the bourgeoisie.
You'll find quite a bit of neon and
espresso downtown, as well as some
old favorites. Check out -Browser's

There is more to life at Evergreen
than Evergreen itself, as you will
soon discover, especially if you are
living on campus. It won't be long
before your skin will simply crawl
at the sight of concrete, earth-toned
upholstery and perfect landscaping.
When the time comes, be prepared
to follow that urge to hop on the
nearest Intercity Transit (IT) bus
and head for the real world~
There are, more or less, two
facets of the Olympia experience:
Westside and Downtown. The
Westside has the Asterisk, Rainy
Day Records, the bowling alley, and
the bakery at Peterson's (all at the
corner of Harrison and Division--the
bus driver knows). On the
Westside, people live in houses,
many Grt:cners among them.

Orientation to Tra nsp 0 rta tion
Downtown Olympia is located approximately six miles southeast of
Evergreen's campus. Students can
catch the 41 Inter-City Transit bus
to downtown from the library loop
every half hour. The Evergreen bus
stop downtown is located on the corner of State and Columbia. See "transit to campus" on the vicinity map.
Main drags in downtown Olympia
are 4th Avenue, running east and
west, and Capitol Way, running
north and south. Take note that
downtown is bordered on the east by
Capitol Lake and Budd Inlet. Just
south of downtown is the Capitol
campus, dome and all.

Evergreen may be the perfect place
to study, but you'll still want to get
away during your quest for enlightenment. Wher~yer you choose to go,
you'll have to find a way back
somehow. How to get back here could
be one of the toughest decisions a student can make. Whether by land, sea
or air, the choice is yours.
.Having a car clearly makes life
easier. · Everyone will want to know
you, so share the costs of gas and you'll
have it made. But be careful about joining any organizations, clubs or teams,
because you may end up the head
chauffeur.
Maybe you came to Evergreen
because you're environmentally conscious and are determined never to
own a car. Perhaps you're on a student
budget and just can't afford one. A
bicycle gives you access to the entire
Puget 'Sound basin almost year round
if you don't mind the rain. If you're
riding south to Olympia from Seattle,
Take the back way via Bremerton,
Belfair and Shelton. It's more scenic

'"_...... Jf:4,'H~t4Je-

than the 1-5 corridor and the ferry to
Bremerton offers some outstanding
views. The journey can take anywhere
from 5 hours to all day if you just want
to take it easy.
If you're not into riding, there's
always the Greyhound bus, complete
with reclining seats and a restroom
"for your convenience." Coming from
Seattle, the bus always stops at Sea
Tac Airport and Fort Lewis military
base. That's great if you're part of the
jet set or Rambo crowd, but
frustrating if you just want to get back
in a hurry. Be sure to take your
favorite textbook for the two and a half
hour journey. Trailways also makes the
trek for less money, less often.

Hitching a ride can be easy and
quick, especially if the weather is bad.
Thumbing it demands a rugged
philosophical outlook, like "I don't really need a ride, I'm fascinated just watching this blade of grass grow." Best
of all, as a hitcher you can never be accused of being a yuppie.
If you're part of Evergreen's national student body then you'll pro-

bably fly into Sea Tac Airport and
wonder how to get down to Olympia.
Cabs are well over a hundred dollars,
so don't even think about it. The
Greyhound bus will take you to
downtown Olympia for $6.25 and won't
charge for any excess baggage like
bikes or skis. But it only leaves Sea Tac
six times a day, so you may have to
wait several hours. The Capital
Aeroporter van offers more frequent
service and will drop you off at your
house or the Evergreen campus. But
you pay more. Twenty dollars will get
you to campus, $14 takes you
downtown. (ID required for student
' rate). In addition, the Aeroporter
charges $5 for bikes or skis.
Maybe you' d like to choose another
way to get to Olympia. You can sail
your boat into the harbor or the
Geoduck beac,h. Private planes
sometimes land at the Olympia Airport, a few miles south of town. Our
own nuclear attack submarine, the
USS Olympia, paid us a visit last
spring amid a notably mixed reception.

Olympia: an espresso suburb thriving on bus depot extravaganzas and the
infamous, communal gatherings at the
Smithfield. As an EF student once asked, 'Where are the discoteques?'
Oh, come now. Is this an adequate
response to the mighty question which
lingers throughout our community, as
aroma through Tacoma: "Does entertainment exist in Olympia?"
Well, no longer ask this fatuous question, for hidden far beneath this humdrum facade lies a world of cultUral activity which only the few, the proud
and the informed have experienced.
I t begins with art. From sketches
hanging in the Rainbow to sculpture
and fiberworks at the Marianne
Partlow Gallery, the local art exhibits
are many.
The Smithfield Cafe, downtown on
4th, regularly exhibits work by local artists, and plays a lot of hip music. Drop
in for a little subculture.
The Evergreen Galleries, on the 2nd
& 4th floors of the Library, and the first
floor of the CAB, are some of the best
places in town to view artwork. Sid
White, x6062, is in charge of the
Library Galleries, while the students'
Expressive Arts Network operates the
1st floor show. Reach them at x6412.
If you are merely an art-loving
voyeur, Marianne Partlow's Gallery is
the place for you. Located at the corner of 5th and Washington Street, this
seemingly non-existent studio, often
mistakenly bypassed after viewing the
outside display, contains many exhibitions. From September 5 to October 8
one can find the sculpture works of
Jean Mandeberg, who in 1984 was
awarded a grant from the Evergreen
Foundation for two temporary outdoor
sculptures. Also included during this
time will be fiberworks of Gloria
Crouse, who has been awarded a one·
woman show at the Bellevue Art
Museum during the summer of 1987.
More exhibits to watch for include
Duane Pasco's work, to be displayed
from October 10 to November 12, and
Maury Haseltine's new paintings from
November 21 to December 17.
For those starving artists seeking
employment, a co-op could be the

JOIN OUR WORLD TOUR OF BREWS

Diversity: goals and
realities
by Rebecca Blissell

Within Evergreen's goals for education
is the ideal of cultural diversity and the
acknowledgementand respect of those differences_ It is a further attempt to create
an atmosphere of tolerance which extends
into a cultural literacy enabling students,
faculty and community to accept, and learn
from, ethnic groups and their specific struggles in white society.
Although this goal is a part of
Evergreen's commitment to pluralism, the
campus itself is 90% white, and as such is
not a true model of diversity. The diversity is instead within the students
themselves--students who draw from other
cultures such as Eastern Asian,
Rastafaarian, Indian and African to create
an eclectic culture based upon tolerance and
love of freedom. But this is not a true diversity of culture, for things taken from other
cultures rarely come from direct experience, but are borrowed and changed,
resulting in a white interpretation.
The diversity must be imported to the
campus through cultural events, lectures
and by individuals willing to share their
own ethnic experience with others. Two offices at Evergreen that are dedicated to
this cultural exchange are the First People's Coalition and the Office of Affirmative
Action. The First People's Coalition is run
by April West Baker, who helps coordinate
the five student groups on campus that concern themselves with students of color and
the issues that these students face. The five
groups (U moja, Women of Color Coalition,
MEChA, Asian/Pacific Isle Coalition, and
the Evergreen Indian Center)--the First
People's Coalitlon- sponsor cultural events,
provide information, peer counseling, advising and support to all students regardless
of color. The office is also dedicated to keeping students of color here at Evergreen until their graduation, despite the problems
that may arise. The Office of Affirmative
Action provides another place for support,
investigates discrimination on the campus
and sponsors cultural events.
In talking with both April West Baker
and Margarita Mendoza de Sugiyama, the

.'

t

.,

question of cultural diversity and how it
really works on campus was addressed. The
events and lectures are two ways of bringing diversity to the campus but these are
not enough to balance out the white majority. April said that although there are many
cultural events, the turnout for these was
low. She went on to say that it is not the
events that affect the diversity, but the individual who is willing to walk into an unfamiliar setting and experience what it is
like to be outside of the majority. It is then
that learning takes place. Margarita stressed the social change that is instigated when
individuals do take that risk. It is because

Evergreen is cognizant of diversity and
because of its commitment to social change
that learning from other cultures becomes
a possibility instead of a far fetched hope.
It is one thing to take ideas from cultures
without knowing what they mean; it is
another to learn those ideas in the context
of the culture either from the happenings
on campus or by actually travelling to live
in a foreign country. It is the responslbility
of the students, staff and faculty of
Evergreen to be culturally aware; ultimately, it is the individual who must risk, involve
themselves and learn to change.

$8.7 ntillion social space?
by Helen Gilmore
The Board of Trustees have decided to
put a 8.7 million dollar gymnasium at the
top of their capital budget request to the
legislature. This new building is to be multipurpose (a gym and all-campus gathering
place). I firmly agree that we need a new
building; space is currently at a premium.
Forget the gymnasium; the Pavilioh
works just fine. Also, the city of Olympia's
new community/senior center will have a
gymnasium available for rent at $56 per
hour, or $28 per hour for non-profit
organizations.
This campus is boring. There is no place
to simply socialize with friends or to have
fun. In addition, there is no ideal performance space on campus. The Recital Hall
located in the C~mmunications Building has
a capacity of 225, too small for large events.
Ed Trujillo, Communications Building
Manager, says that if he had a performance
space which could seat 600 people, he coUld
break even on Evergreen Expressions.
Large events are now held in the Library
Lobby, which has poor seating, terrible
sound and other problems.
There is a solution and here is my proposal. The new building, CRC Phase II
(Social Space) will be used in accordance
with the Strategic Plan. The social space

will have facilities for Wellness. In my opinion it should be a warm cozy space with
a fireplace, soft couches, conversation, good
food (not SAGA); a large screen TV with
VCR; a solarium with lush plants, tables,
chairs and smoking in one section (well ventilated so non-smoker friends can socialize
without dying from the fumes). In addition,
there should be a 500-1000 seat performance hall, large enough to book more expensive national acts and not lose our shirts,
yet small enough for more intimate performances; a bowling alley, video arcade, game
room, and the best for last, hot tubs or
jacuzzis. Wellness would be obtained
because students, staff and faculty would
have a nice relaxing place to go on this
sterile campus.
This space would provide students with
needed amusements and a friendly social atmosphere to help establish that much-ballyhooed sense of community. Of course; I
have no idea how much all of the above
would cost, but 8.7 million would cover a
nice chunk. I am really left with a sense of
wonder as to why there is no social space ·
here. If you have any ideas abut this new
building, please let the Board of Trustees,
Vice President for Student Affairs Gail
Martin, or the president know, otherwise
we will have a gymnasium.

A Game of Hearts
For a long time I earned the Queen of Spades around in my head.
But she wou ldn 't even ta lk to me.

by Lois Maffeo

I could feel her there; a dark, brooding beauty ...
like a thunderhead o n the other side of the mountain .
But she never ca me near .

You're in Olympia now. You're liying in
a town where the prevalent movie review
is, "It sucked." We're not referring to a
fIlm's "hyperbolic tendencies" or the "mise
en scene" here. We're talking about
whether or not the movie was worth the 99
cents you paid to see it. But there's one
great thing about living in a cultural
wasteland. You can always set up a screen
and have yourself a nifty drive-in.
In truth, it's easy to see good fIlms in this
town. On campus is the finest film series
in these parts. Thursday Night Films, a student organization coordinated by Leslie
May, shows films every Thursday evening
at 7 and 9:30 p.m. in Lecture Halll. Classic
movies of yesteryear, contemporary foreign
films, and recent documentaries can all be
found. And it's cheap. And it's fun. And
running across Red Square in the rain to
get there is really a gas.
Now, if you are really with-it, you will not
waste a moment before you join the O!ympia Film Society. For five bucks you get a
free movie and a neat-o membership card.
Every other Monday they present films in
the "deluxe" auditorium of the State
Theater, 204 E. 4th. This fall you can look
forward to an evening with Jon Jost on
September 22 at 6:30 p.m. Jost, an experimental filmmaker, will be on hand to

Words and Measures

So I spent some t ime with the Queens of Clubs and Hearts.
The Queen of Diamonds used to co me and seduce me in my
dreams.

Can the words you sing

Wou ld they strik e
out on their own
through subtle pin es
and stopin a misted clearing

But she real ly didn't care fo,- me that much and would scare
me away by turning into a Jack.
And I was never sati sfied w ith any of th em anyway .
I knew It was the Queen of Spades or N othing.
I tried every tric k of the Heart, but she never turned up.
That' s w hen I beca me frustrated and started wasting my trump .
I played a King on a three of spades. What a mistake'
After that I figured I was a born loser.

These questions
are my reply
to your accidental land.
Where singing
is not passion
it's as acce pted
as the riv ers run.

I threw the rest of my cards in a col d river and fell in
after them .
That 's when th e Queen of Spades Jumped out of my head and '
pulled me back to so lid ground .
"You held on t o that damned Ace so long," she said,
"I didn' t think I'd ever take a tric k."

But let us not forget the times in each
person's life when the anxiety of school,

become too great to ignore. At life's juncture's such as these, there is only one
solace. Namely, seeing big guns, chaotic
chase ;.;cenes, and massive gore exploding
from some poor schmoe's brain. And you
can get all this disorienting imagery for the
low, low price of 99 cents at the State
Theater, 204 W. 4th. All night, every night.
Each week there are at least two new 99

cent movies, ranging from teenage sex comedies to gross-out phlegm-spewing flicks to
flag-waving anti-Ruskie workouts. Reeent
99 centers have included Howard the Duck,
One Crazy Summer, and Psycho I I/. But
be warned, when you go to a 99 cent movie,
expect a 99 cent audience. There are lots
of folks who turn -out for these movies that
you'd pay another 99 cents to get away
from. "Oh! This part is great. God, he's gonna get her. HE'S GONNA GET HER!'
Pass the Milk Duds, please ... "
Don't forget, there are eight, count 'em,
eight theaters at the Lacey Cinemas at 4431
Martin Way. With great reservation I call
them theaters. They're mor~ like oversized egg cartons. Cheep-cheap. There are
bargain shows on Saturday afternoons and
~onday evenings, which mayor may not
be worth the time and effort to go to Lacey.
The same goes for the Capital Mall
Cinemas. The Tightwad Tuesday ev~nings
get you in for $3, but the best part of all
is that after the movie you can cruise the

INTERVIEW

Cleveland: They're pretty nice.

Talking with
Cleveland Green
This article is part of a weekly interview series in which
the "Journal" will talk with members of the community
who hold diverse and interesting views, or have specific
knowZege, which may further understanding of our community and the issues facing it. This week, the "Journal's"
managing editO'f talked with Cleveland Green of Custodial
Services about Evergreen's development during his 12-year
career here.
Polly: Can you tell me some important ways the college
has changed in the last 12 years?

Polly: And the administrators?
Cleveland: I don't have any problems with them. Some of
the other (custodians) might.
Polly: Where do you see the college going in the future?
Cleveland: I think this sort of thing is going to spread all
over the country. I think that if they keep doing this good
a job, they're going to spread this all over America, this
sort of college.

Cleveland: Yes ... there's
several ways it's changed.
They've got a different type
of student.
Polly: Different how?
Cleveland:
Oh,
you
know ... do I have to say?
Polly: Well, you can if you
want.
Cleveland: See, you used to
have some that thought
more of themselves than
others did. There's two
classes, you might say. An
A and a B. We had a B class
when I first started out, but
now it seelJls like we're getting an A class.

Polly: So how do the students treat you?
Cleveland: They're very nice.

Polly: Is there anything else you think that students should
know about Evergreen?
Cleveland: Evergreen is as good a school as any other. It's
set in a lovely location. Come and give us a try. You might
like it.
Polly: What is the most important thing for students to
learn when they come here?

Cleveland: The scenery, for
one, and working with al1
the young ladies (appreciative laughter from the
women custodians present)
and most of all, just the
friendly people.

Cleveland: I think they should learn the rules of the campus and how to get along with one another. Learning to
get along with one another is the most important thing; then
you can go from there. Then do your subject, whatever your
project is, and do your best.
You asked what I like about Evergreen. One thing I like
is that we have all ages of students coming in, older ones.
They never get too old for us to teach them something.

Polly: What do you think
the biggest problem for our .
community ·
&at
Evergreene is?e

Polly: Do you ever think of leaving Evergreen and being
a custodian somewhere else?

Polly: What do you like
best?
Cleveland: When I've done
my days work and it's time
to go home.

photo by Dominique Sepser

Cleveland: I don't know. Looks like they're doing a good
enough job. I think I'd try to get more students of all
peoples. In ohter words, I'd get it more united, integrated.
They don't have as many minority students coming. In the
first year we had more. Now we don't get them.
Custodians have it better now than they had it a long
time ago. Back in the early 70's, we did everything. Rules,
policies, setups--we didn't get them until Rita Cooper came
in. It's different now. We're set up pretty good. But this
time of year, we're busy.

Polly: What do you like
about Evergreen?

Cleveland: I think working
together. I think we're kind
of split here.

Polly: Are they more polite
and friendly to you?
Cleveland: Friendlier,
they're neater, they dress
neater ... all that stuff. When
you go into a classroom
they don't throwaway a lot
of trash like the first bunch
we had. They were on the sloppy side. Now they leave
things in the trash cans instead of all over the floor.

Polly: If you were college president, what would you do
differently?

Polly: Do you ever get to
talk to any really important
.officials here?

Cleveland: I used to. I used to go sit and talk to McCann
when he was president. Not much now, maybe once or
twice. Then there are the secretaries, Rita. ,. Yeah, I get
around to the officials a lot.

Cleveland: No. This is my first time being a custodian.
Evergreen's all right. The first time I came to work, I didn't
think I'd like it, but then I met all the friendly people so
I stayed. When I leave as custodian here that's all the custodian I'm going to get.
Polly: Do you ever feel forgotten down here (in Custodial
Services)? Do people forget to give you the credit you
deserve?

Polly: Are some students messier than the others?
Cleveland: The messiest building is the science building
where the art students are. They use some kind of black
chalk and get it all over, and walk in it, and get it all up
and down the hall. Those are bad areas.
Polly: Do you think the students have a good idea of what
the real world is like, or are they off in their own little
world?
Cleveland: They're off in their own little world. You have
to have a lot of real experience to know what the real world
is like, or even get an idea. Me, I'm an experienced person.
I've travelled for years, from one country to another, learning about how people liye and how they cope. I think a
student would learn to appreciate his own culture better
if they would go to a foreign country and find out how people live.
Polly: If you were a teacher, what would be really important for you to teach?
Cleveland: That you need to make sure to get your education, and don't let anything get between, like drugs. I'd
teach about drugs. They can stop you from finishing a lot
of things.
Polly: Do you think drugs are a problem here at
Evergreen?
Cleveland: Not now. At one time it was pretty heavy.

people having been messier?
Cleveland: They have a lot to do with attitudes. You can
get an attitiude that, "I don't have to do it because someone
else will." You can get that attitude if you're not thinking
clearly. Then again, a lot of it has to do with your
background. But if you're messing with drugs or alcohol,
sometimes you can forget about your home training.

by Yolanda Lake

She leaned against a tree and its crimson
leaves fell around her, yielding to the
season. A chill October breeze whipped
across Red Square, intensifying her sense
of urgency.
"What's wrong?" a stranger asked, a leaf
caught in his long, blonde hair.
"Just a victim of the Evergreen Dream. "
Her words sank into the cup of coffee in her
hands. She closed her eyes and bent her
head to let the steam warm her face.
"Where's your sense of wonder?" Her
head came up sharply and met with the
mock innocence playing around the cornel's
of his eyes.
"Where's your sense of reality?" She
glared and grimaced until he laughed,
blonde hair blown across his face like
strands of sunlight.
"What's reality?" He asked the question
lightly, but genuinely.
"Reality is red tape around my neck. The
right hand's choking me and the left hand
refuses to see.

The man thought a minute before he
spuke, to the tree's immense satisfaction.
"If you want to do it, if you want to learn,
you can. The vision and the ideal are still
hel'e--you have to pick them up, dust them
off a bit." He laughed, shook his head,
"Some of the best people you'll ever meet
are at Evel'green--and as you might have
smmised, they're here for love, not money.
Certainly not fame. It's hard enough to
know each other within the college. Outside
we't·e . just the threatening example of
d(ft'erellce.
"I almost don't know what to tell you--I
think it used to be expected that there
would be bright shooting-star students who
\\:ould need individual contracts to make
their own paths. but, I think if you talk to
--... they'll be able to tell you how to put
your contract together. Oh, wait: there was
a guideline in my catalogUe from a couple
years ago. Maybe you can get a copy in the
library. Music's not my thing. but I heal'
that ---- is really good.
"First and foremost. always look at the
system, and if it's getting you down, figure
out how to turn it on its head from the inside out. If there's a real war, it's between
us and the outside: pious plurality and
commercial-land are dying to divide and
conquer. Work with what we have--we have
a lot."
Now the woman looked more thoughtful
than downtrodden. The man glanced up at
the clocktower.
"I have to help a task force disappear. Let
me know how it goes, I'll watch fo), you."
He threw her one last smile and set off
down the red-brick road. She downed the
.rest of her coffee in one tilt of her head,
tossed the empty cup in the trash barrel,
and headed back into the jungle of the .
registration office.

The t1'ee 1I0dded its head i 1/ ag1'ee'/lleut.
In the beginning. the ouly tape WQS ticker
tape. And masking tape··maskillg tape is
so ve1·satile.
"I want to do an individual contract in·
stead of a Core, which is supposed to be
possible, right? I mean, that's why I came
here, because anything's possible here, in
the name of Education. But I can't find any
guidelines for writing the learning contract
they insist on at the dean's office. All the
music faculty scheduled for contracts are
running over their hours,and I just found
. out the studio I'd planned on using is shut
down for this quarter and no one knows
why." She stopped for a breath, took a
quick sip of coffee, and looked up at the
young man in an appeal for help.
He cocked his head to one side, brushing
the loose strands of hair from his face.
The tree shook its leaves, and swayed a
.bit with the wind, unable to wait for the
man's reply. "But of course anything 's
possible. Ever,qreen i.q ouilt on the ideal of'
Education! We have the best fa cultu
around--orz.e who carries story ; one who

The tree stood alone. If 'the previous
discussion had left tJte students thoughtful,
it left the tree, being a tree, even more so.
It turned toward the sun-bloodied sky and
shook its branches a bit, thinking.
"In the beginning, there was no
bureaucracy, just a tight group of searchers
and scholars. Bu,t the college saw that it
was good and said, 'let there be more, may
Evergreen evergrow.' The mystic isle
became an archipelago of offices and administrators and departments and forms.
"When they first got together to talk about
student governance, they called themselves
a community--and they decided governance
was whatever they did from day to day to
""
maintain Evergreen's
quality of education.
No long·standing committees. No exclusionary special interest groups, no ofjicers
01' offtces. No Roger's Rules of Order.
"They talked about mediation, decisionmaking where the action is, the social contract, and the all campus hearing board."
The tree sighed in fond remembrance.
"These days people are more apt to point
fingers, climb ladders, or simply wall(JU) in
dissatisfaction rather than talk to each
other. People are so accustomed to not communicating that decisions are continually
being made without input from the people
who lose neededfaculty, equipment, rights,
etc., as a direct consequence of the decision.
Communication is more legend than reality. The channels don't even exist anymore.
"Used to be, the Information Center was
the clearinghouse/network for the entire
campus, the one place to go to find out
about anything. If you told the Info Center,
you could rest assured that everyone would
know. Now, there's Information Services,
College Relations, the Events Coordinator,
and the l1ifo Center, which hands out maps
and bus schedules. With the ureat divide,
important Info Center functions were
delegated nowhere, such as governance information, scheduling, and general publicity. As far as any sort of decision-making
goes, we're so loose, we're lost.
"Policy should exist only insofa1~ as it
supports Evergreen's educational objectives. With the absence of communication,
policy has begun to determine our educational objectives. Rather than helping us
reach the heavens, our rules and regulations are often a glass ceiling. We can still

0 380

see the sky, but we can't touch it.
"In a community, every person has a
Voice. There . are a lot of people at
Evergreen who aren't talking. A Social
Contract, as such, requires the involvement
of the whole society. With the communtty
of Evergreen scattered into myriad tiny
islands, the Social Contract is left out in
space, standing on air.
"It loses its meaning, and eventually
authority. Without the Social Contract, we
are left with only the various policies that
any college has. We are only any college,
moving with the current.
(Special note to the reader: go read
"Against the Current: Reform and Experimentation in Higher Education," edited
by Richard M. Jones and Barbara L. Smith,
Schenkman Publishing Co., 1984)
"Supposedly, Evergreen has DTF's and
an All Campus Hearing Board to help
everyone come together to make needed
decisions. The Hearing Board was designed to oversee decision-making, and step in
when the process was out of line to make
recommendations to the people involved. It
was composed of equal amounts of
students, faulty, staff, and administration.
Where is it when we need it? Defunct. DTF's
aren't taken seriously anymore·-to
everyone's disadvantage. In theory, they
work to solve problems with the community for the betterment of the community, not
just one or two people. Who serves on
DTFs? How are people selected, and on
what basis? How does a DTF operate and
when does it disappear? These questions
others remain to be answered.
"Students give up, or give in to the conspiracy, convinced that all the power is
higher up. All the power is with them.
Evergreen is not a group ofgrey buildings
in the woods--it's a groups of people with
a common goal. It's the people. And most
of the people are students. "
The tree broke away from its deliberations/rejZections/contemplations/evaluationsfruminationslmeditations. Trees take
their time for this stuff, and time had pass-

ed. The two students were bumping into
each other again.
"Oh, it's you," she said, shaking her head
and bringing her mind back from the deep
reaches.
"So, how's your reality?" He waited with
agrm.
"It's getting there," she replied
sheepishly, but with determination.
(Really.)
"Would you like to make it all the way?-with your vision that is? .. " He broke off and
she looked at him with a slight twist in her
face, waiting for more. "I think I found an
entrance to the maze--if you're game." He
handed her a pink sheet of paper with black
lettering. She read it. The tree looked over
her shoulder. This is what it said:
IT'S A TIME FOR CREATION
HELP FORGE
THE MISSING LINK-THE COMMUNICATION
IN
COMMUNITY
Come one, come all
to a convocation-It's time
for a student agenda
She scanned the rest of the page, and gazed out over red bricks. "A time for creation ... " She spoke the words aloud, brought
them into being. Thunder rolled overhead.
Lightning lit up the darkened square like
stagelights. And then ,t he rain.

WashPIRG battles Hanford dumpsites .
by Allan Rose, WashPIRG coordinator
. WashPIRG is back, gearing up for a major campaign to stop Hanford, Washington
from becoming the nation's high-level
nuclear waste dump.
Last spring, Hanford was chosen by the
federal government as one of the final three
choices for the waste dump. Over the summer, with its massive citizen outreach campaign and strong lobbying effo.rts,
WashPIRG and other groups succeeded in
calling for a special session of the state
legislature. As a result there will now be

a Hanford referendum on the ballot this
November. A "yes" vote will not only
stregthen the state's position against Hanford as a choice, but it will also give the people the chance to veto Hanford if it is
ultimately chosen. This was an enormous
victory for WashPIRG and other concerned environmental groups. But the work is
not over yet...
Students wishing to be involved in the
campaign or who just want to find out more
about WashPIRG should contact our office
in LIB3228.

eRe opens early
In response to significant student sentiment in favor of increased CRC (Campus
Recreation Center) hours; the S&A Board
appropriated funds to partially finance early morning hours. The CRC will now be
open from 6:30 a.m. to 8:15 a.m. (ugh) Monday through Friday. "We have continually
had students, faculty and staff requesting
early morning hours for swimming and
weight training in particular." said Jan
Lambertz, Director of Recreation and
Athletics.
The change, added Jan, is only partially
funded by S&A The adclitional cost will be
covered by a minor recluction in weekend
hours--the time of least CRC utilization.
The CRC staff hopes to see lots of earl~r
morning faces.

CRC entphasizes wellness,
encourages lifetinte activities
Do you know what a "full-spectrum lifetime sport" is? It's now a part of
Evergreen's response to the Strategic Plan
to emphasize health and recreation in it's
sports programs. "The Strategic Planners
said two very important things to us", says
Jan Lambertz, director of Recreaton and
Athletics, "One is that sports, including intercollegiate athletics, have definite place
in Evergreen's educational and social environment. The other is that we should
direct our efforts to the health and fitness
of the most number of people, and, if
necessary, re-direct staff and budget
resources from specialized programs, such
as intercollegiate athletics, to programs of
more general appeal such as outdoor pursuits and intramurals. There are a number
of changes that are in place this year which
are moving us in that direction."
Jan explains that the intercollegiate
athletics program will now include 'only soccer and swimming. Sports clubs--groups
which are student directed and less formal-will actively exist for sports such as crosscountry running, t1'ack and field. tennis,

If you want to know the truth about the

There are only thil'teen players listed on
the I·oster. The team has a new coach, Steve
Kacyak, who is assisted by volunteer Matt
Louy. The team has quality players, but it
is difficult to maintain a strong team for a

crew sailing, basketball, volleyball, and
frisbee.
Full spectrum lifetime sports, according
to Jan, are sports where beginners and experts are all welcome to participate and
where participants can continue to be actively involved long after they leave college.
"We want to get people started and give
them enjoyable and rewarding opportunities here at Evergreen, so that when
they leave here they will continue to build
on the sports experience they had here to
become healthier and happier throughought
their lives."
The following is a resource list for those
with an interest in getting involved in
sports and recreation at Evergreen.
Life-time sports teams here at Evergreen
are The Budd Inlet Sailing Club, CrossCountry Runners, Road Runners, Track
Athletes, the Weightlifting club, Crew,
Tennis, Ultimate Frisbee, Women's
Ultimate Frisbee, Fencing, Skiing, and intramural volleyball and basketball.
The Wilderness Resource Center is also
offering six back-country trips for this fall.
Anyone is welcome; however, in most cases
the party size is limited to 15. Meetings of
individuals who may be interested in participating in any or all of these trips should
attend the planning sessions at 5:30 p.m. on
Tuesdays in the Wilderness Center, CAB
14. The first meeting is September 23.
Additional information on all these activities and more is available at the Rec
Center information desk.
In addition to club activities, there are the
following drop-in activities for those who
want to be a little ctive from time to time,
but who don't want to make a commitment
to a club.

WHAT IS THE RIGHT CHOICE

FOR MOST COLLEGE STUDENTS?

•
service.
d) AT&T-for coiled, third-party and operatorassisted long distance calls.
e) Any class that does not conflid with "The Love
Connection!'

Like AT&r Long Distance Service. AT&r offers so many terrific ,
values. Like a 40% to over 50% discount off our day rate on night,
