Autonomy-Evergreen's s.,!rre~t and
most popular buzz word. Not~i,n. wrong . _
with it · ·eithet=.;;;.l suppos-e.;..... ~11 yo.Uf
autonomy infringes on me, or It denl~s
others ' access and enjoyment of their
freedom. Or, as in the missing S&A memo
with the strange, yet covert link to student
autonomy,
it denies acce~s to
information-public, student oriented,
information.
Perhaps the culprit, when found out,
should testify before a student board a~out
his 'Lo'ne Ra'nger,' out of control, actions
like those gov~rnment folks, Colon~1 NO.rth
for one, who' get connected up with missing paperwork; .
.
It's amusing too to think about James
Martin's all~dged statement that he would
have yanked the memo himself had he not
been'out of the office. Why does that st~t;
ment sound am'a zingly like Ollie s
statements of late last year wherein he
testified thot~e had a sl:!.redde~for shred-_
ding a~nd would have ma~e confe~ti out Of
more' 'secret documents If there d been
more time~
.
.
In the erM, it seems a silly little incident,
and I'd probably not care too much: except this act seems indicativ.e of an attitude
that is way' out of control.
S&A staff administrators have become
the victims of racist, classist and sexist commentary by people who claim to care about
community. Community starts in your own
backyard, not on the picket lin::,
Autonomy, is wonderful-but It s chaos,
pain, suffering and insensitivity without
responsibility .

Student Activities coordinator James
Martin called it a "smear campaign."
Kathy Ybarra, S&Adirector, said she
was only doing her job when she wrote
a memo informing board members that
Martin had not submitted an S&A
operations budget within the established March 11 deadline. S&A Board
members never received the memo,
which had been removed from their
mailboxes by an unknown person(s).
(See CPJ, 21 April 1988)
"The memo was, in fact, an attack on
me," said Martin during last Friday's .
board meeting. "If I had been nere, l~would've yanked that memo out."
While Martin said he did not endorse
withholding information from board
members, he said that he could understand why someone might think
themselves justified in removing the
memo.
"Students have been driven to that
point," said Martin. They are tired of
performing to the expectations of administrators, who are always placing
bureaucratic barriers before studentinitiated projects, he said. Administrators use the ruse of accountablity to control and manipulate
students. These .paper-cahse tacties
are, " ... an insidious threat to student
autonomy," added Martin, saying
they're just another way to keep
students-functioning in the admfnistra---'--'tion's system.
Martin did not directly discuss the
reasons why he had not submitted a
budget, but inst~ad spoke to the
broader issues of student autonomy
and self-determination. Martin turned .
in an S&A operations budget prior to
the meeting. Board members had little to say about the incident and the
dialogue was primarily between Martin and S&A administrators Cheryl
Henderson-Peters, Kathy Ybarra and
Dean of- Student Development Stone
Thomas.
Thomas expressed surprise at Mar-
. .._--._... . .-c -.. -
tin's claims that S&A administrators
hinder student initiatives and said he
would certainly reprimand a staff
member if this was proven to be the
case.
"I do believe in student autonomy,"
said Thomas, but that autonomy includes paperwork and obligations to
established administrative procedures.
Thomas said he was concerned about
the disappearance of the memo,
because it affected communication and
the flow of information between board
members and S&A staff, adding that
Martin had a responsibility to keep the
~ara~informed.
Henderson-Peters took exception to
Martin's comments that S&A funded
administrators lacked a "can-do attitude" when it came to helping
students achieve their gdals. She cited
an example of helping Lillian Ford,
coordinator of EPIC, cut through the
bureaucracy in a single day to arrange
tranportation for students to attend a
Nevada test site protest.
Dave Campbell, last year's S&Acoordina tor, told the board that accountability was needed not for the administration but for students, whose
funds the board allocates.
Recent actions taken by the Board
included allocations of: $500 for a plaque in memory of Pamela Benton Lee,
an Evergreen student who recently
was killed in an avalanche; $2,500 to
the Wilderness Center to purchase
ayalanche _trallsmitter..s and snow
shovels; $300 for the Student Communication Center to finance a phonein information system; an additional
$1000 for the SCC to cover increased
costs of installing glass doors for their
office in the CAB. The Evergreen Free
Press was allocated $2000 to cover production costs for 8 issues.

Student chains himself

by Suzette Williams
An Evergreen student chained
himself to President Joe Olander's door
Tuesday for the second day in a row.
Dave Henshaw said it was "symbolic
to show that students have no power."
Henshaw, a member of the student
protest group FUCK 'EM, would like
the Board of Trustees to rescind its
power to the students, faculty and
staff. "I'm trying to empower the student body," he says.
"The Social Contract says that
Evergreen is not above the law," says
Henshaw, "but here in the Evergreen
_ communitJ1:Jhere is no _democratic law.
Students, faculty and staff are all
subservient to the Board of Trustees."
Henshaw took this action, he says,
because FUCK 'EM presented the
board of, trustees with an ultimatum;

death," Jenny said. "It's especially important for people who are just now
coming out and dealing with being
gay-often they don't understand there
is a positive side, with love, hope and
life ahead."
The film selections also afford opportunity to learn of cross-culture
diverseness, she explained. "Gay and
lesbians can't all be lumped together.
We do have one issue that can unite us ,
but we also celebrate incredible diversity." Besides, she laughed, saying it
will be incredibly fun.

After a recent trip to a community

said he started thinking about why
Evergreen had no sprayed-on
messages. Was it Evergreen'~ lack of
minority student populatIOn, he
wondered, thinking -thai perhaps the
community college had more students
who felt they had no official voice in the
school and needed graffiti to communicate and demand reform.
"Or is it because we see Evergreen
as being safe and already dedicated to
reform that we don't need it?" Brown
asked, saying he found the question
sort of interesting.

Students question unfair faculty hirihg
by Dawn Weber
As most college students realize,
good teachers, the kind whose
dynamics and love for their job make
a tremendous impact on your life, are
hard to come by. Two Performing Arts
students, Jenny Strauss and Allison
Radke, feel strongly about their
teacher, Ed Trujillo.
Adjunct faculty and Performing Arts
Manager Trujillo has been at
Evergreen for five years. He recently
applied for an opening for a multicultural theater position in Performing
Arts. Three final candidates were
chosen for an interview, and Trujillo
was not one of them. "I feel incredibly
disappointed," said Trujillo, "I think.in
some ways, this college is inhospitable

to in-house candidates."
Jenny Strauss wrote a letter to the
hiring sub-committee, explaining her
shock and distress, and why she feels
they made a mistake in overlooking
Ed. "I'm not saying that they had to
hire him," she said, "but I believe he
deserved to be interviewed. Ed Trujillo is a wonderful teacher, he imparts
a sense of power, humor, and joy,
teaching very serious, difficult work in
a way that we can all learn."
Approximately twenty stlldents
generated a protest, and approached
the hiring sub-committee with their
concerns. They felt that perhaps his
work as an administrator was overshadowing his qualifications for the
position. They had hoped that by ex-

pressing their support for Ed, and explaining why they felt he was an excellent candidate, he would be at least
included as one of the finalists.
"I really don't understand what's going on," said Allison Radke, "I know
that there are some good people on the
hiring committee. Maybe they have a
proc.e ss that if I thought about
everything they. did I would agree with
it, but from my point of view, my
limited knowledge, it just doesn't seem
quite right, it doesn't feel right to me.
I feel that he should have been at least
given the chance to be interviewed as
a final candidate and to do a public
presentation for the school."

,Manipulation brings hazards
by David Phillips
Human manipulation of the
biosphere is running rampant, and yet
is little understood. If asked what major effects we are having
planet, you might quickly think oftoxic chemical contamination, nuclear
radiation, water pollution, air pollution
and its corresponding greenhouse effect, ozone layer depletion and tropical
rainforest destruction. Another serious
problem, though, is not well known to
most of us: the effects of electromagnetic irradiation.
Electromagnetic irradiation is being
recognized as a source of serious health
hazards. Articles in the Winter 1988
issue of the Earth Island Journal
(available at the Environmental
Resource Center) decry this invisible
alteration ot" the biosphere. One article
describes the testimony before the
House Subcommittee on Water and
Power of the U.S. Congress, given in
September 1987 by Robert O. Becker,
M.D. Dr. Becket has been researching
the biological effects of electromagnetic
fields (EMFs) since 1958. What he is

increased incidence of birth defects (including Downs Syndrome), and cancer.

Inane registration
Protesters
'process
FUCK'M
thanked
offensive
To members of the Evergreen
, Community,
Again, stude~ts are confronted with
the inane registration policy of The
Evergreen State College. Why, why,
why does Academic Fair happen after
registration? This is so obviously
screwed that it doesn't even require
explanation, only justification. So exactly what is the justification? Is it
tradition? Academic Fair has always
been on a Wednesday, ergo it will continue to be on a Wednesday. This tradition ignores the fact that registration
starts on Monday, and is nearly full by
Tuesday, making the Academic Fair on
Wednesday an academic farce. Personally, I wonder why the professors
even show up. I know why the
students show up: to beg.
Maybe in years past, when
Evergreen was a struggling, alternative college, eking out diplomas in
the backwoods of Washington, programs didn't fill up in the first two
hours of pre-scheduled early registration. Now they do.
This dramatic change in Evergreen's
popularity calls for a relatively minor
change in policy. I would like to suggest one. Namely, hold the Academic
Fair on the Thursday or Friday ,before
registration week. This would give
students time to make intelligent, considered choices about their education.
If registering new students is a problem, either hold their registration
forms until the following Tuesdaywhen continuing students have had a
chance to register-or have them
phone in their registration!;!.
If any member of the Evergreen
community supports this idea, or has
a better one, I urge you to contact Arnaldo Rodriguez, Dean of Enrollment
Services, ext. 6310, and/or one of the
Academic Deans ext. 6870, and tell
them.
Thank you,
Katn Martin
Dear Cooper Point Journal,' ,
I w~uld like to formally thank the
people involved in protesting the REC
Board Assessment Test. The need for
more structure in higher education
arises from a subliminal sense of a loss
of control, which always precedes a
transformative threshold.
, Congratulations to those who have
seen through the matrix, and are willing to seek a more profound truth. '

Dear CPJ and all,
I think it's time for a few "radical,
left-wing" Greeners and faculty to reevaluate their system of public
awareness. I refer, of course, to "fuck
'm" or "f.u.c.k. em" depending on the
poster you see. For those of you who
don't.know what the name stands for,
here's what a member has said. "It
means whatever we want it to. To each
person it means sQmething different."
I will be the first one to admit that
the issues this "multi-issue" organization are trying to bring awareness and
get action for are wonderful, important
issues and all need to be fought for. ,
And another quote:
"Regardless of the value of t~e
group's goals or ideas, their st~nce t8
so antrtgonistic it's self defeat'Lng."
I agree with both viewpoints and
believe the silent majority does too.
Please, to "ruck 'm" and supporters,
please make people angry for your
cause, not angry at your name.

Recently, signs have been posted on

Well, it's about time we formally introduced the Student CommunIcatIon

of a history of efforts to organize campus governance activities in order t.o
benefit students; it is yours because ~t

The SCC is a place-it is located in
the CAB, across from the Bookstore
and next to the Deli:
The SCC is a concept-the SCC Mission Statement:
The Student Communica-
tion Center exists to serve
st'Udents who want to be active in campus gavernance
and/or informed on issues
of decision-making at
TESC. By preserving and
organizing student efforts,
the sce can help new
generations of students to
realize 'their governance
goals fLndrte-inG'r-€as~e ef fectiveness of thetr, ~ar
ticipation in dec'/,stOnmaking processes.
The sec does not represent Evergreen's student
body, but tries to make decisions which are in the best
interest of students.
• The see is a soorce that
st'Udents can utilize according to their needs.
This is some of what's going on:
We're facilitating a selection process to
find student members for COG VCommittee on Governance. We constructed and documented a Student
Communication Center Selection
Policy so that everytime a student
needs to be placed on a decision-~
body (DTF, Board of Trustees, PreSIdent's Advisory Board) we'll have a
method for finding and placing those
students. We rearranged our furniture.
We're reorganizing our files (information on governance from 1971). We're
thinking about what the SCC Governance Handbook should be (produced
during this summer and distributed
next fall). We're fillingup.-<>ur Go,{~L __
nance Bulletin Boards with information
(next to the Bookstore and outside
SCC).
If you want to become involved with
or informed about campus governance
activities, come to the SCC and ask us
questions" watch us work, or tell us
something.

OPINION: S&A

As a student of TESC, I would like
to grumble about the apparent incompetence of those folks who are
handling part of my hard-earned and

The school paper, then called The
Paper, had just been officially recognized. ''We consider ourselves The Paper
, Co-Operative."
There was debate over whether certain
topics were acceptable for graduation
speeches. "Medical Aid for EI
Salvador" was too esoteric for some.
Others thought another speech,
"Evergreen Students Maturing Like
Fine Wine," was too humorous and
would do no good for Evergreen's eversore public image.
Speaking of public image, a majority in the Senate Democratic Caucus
voted to shut down, or "phase-out,"
Evergreen. There was apparently no
real threat posed, according to ·the
Seattle Post Intelligencer, but it did inspire a host of Greeners and some 1,000
local supporters to hold the Evergreen

And this ad appeared in the CPJ:
Week
Charles McCann, then Evergreen's
president, just had his plan for the
reorganization of the administration
approved by the Board of Trustees.
The real debate surrounding the issue
was over where the president's power
~nded and that of the Board began. "I
may be operating under a misassumption," McCann was quoted as saying,
"but as I see it, the way in which the
chief administrators organize their
responsibilties and work with each
other is one of the few direct responsibilities of the president." The Board
didri't agree.

ters like this?
Third, the office of campus adjudicator seems an oddly archaic and
despotic one, given the principles on
which Evergreen is supposedly founded. Judge, jury and executioner, with
no checks save those exercised by the
office of the president itself, the adjudicator is symbolically free of all
obligations to the student body and
faculty. It seems unwise to concentrate
so much unrestrained power in the
hands of someone with so little
democratic legitimacy.
Perhaps a student court would make
wiser decisions. Perhaps it would rule
that graffiti scrawlers, if convicted,
should make fitting restitution and
remove their own graffiti. And if that
seems to be too lenient, then perhaps
CUlprits could be enjoined to wear some
stigmata while performing their
restitution: a sign on their backs,
perhaps, spelling out "Graffiti

"It's clear you are breaking the law
when you do graffiti," Brown said.
"It's inherent in the fonn, but there's
also an issue of private property and
public property. Who has the opportunities to make decisions about how
property is being used.
"Why do we worship money above
everything else (by enforcing property laws)? Why do we take care of the
rich and deny access to so many
others?" Brown and Houghton ask.
The pair emphasized that until
Evergreen, and the rest of society,

upkeep and repair deducts from other
educational expenditures, and to some
extent impoverishes us all.
But I also know the value of maintaining civility, fairness, and balance,
and good jUdgment. I know that
students are mistrustful of many of the
recent moves by the administration,
and that widspread dissatisfaction and
unrest have come to center on the
question of the governance code. My
stUdents fear the concentration of
power into administrative hands
precisely because they fear arbitrary,
unbalanced actions. The adjudicator's
improvident moves in this case seem
to verify their fears that an administration given more legal power would
become drunk with the possibilitEs of
exercising that power.

I like clean walls, but a liberal arts
college really must . set decency as, a
higher priority. And at Eve~gr~en,
democracy should be a still higher
priority. In the end, the best insurance
against graffiti is the perCeption that
the walls on campus indeed belong to
the stUdents, and are not just symbolic
representations of the arbitnP-y ' and
the ossified social structures we inhabit
and which are unable to give a gO<)a a~
counting of themselves. When · that
perception is widespread, sqrely, then
our best and brightest studehts woulCl
not feel in those walls the presence of
an alien and ultimately hostiie power,
and surely then, meaning would
already be constituted in those walls,
and it would not require an act of civil
disobedience to inscribe it' there . .

Why is this band worth an e~tire article and not just a little advertISement
. on the bottom ofa page? Partly
because Sabiil devotes so much of their
music to the Latin American Neuva
Cancion (UNew Song") movement.
Nueva Ca'rU}ion flowered in the early
70's iiI Chile when Salvdor Allende, a
socialist, was the democraticallyelected Pi-esident and musicians such
Victor Jara, Quilapayun, an~ Intiniimani mixed traditionall!lelodies and
rhythms with poetic lyrics concerning
political and social issues. Nueva Cancio1thas blossomed as an underground
. music of r~s1stan~ and liberation. The
music gave ho~ and inspiration to Sandinistas· 'in , th~ triumphant struggle

Latino feel. Their repertoire includes
songs from Central and Latin .~erica
along with original compoSItions of
hope and struggle. Formando un
Puente ("Building Bridges"), their first
album conflrms a commitment to
cross-~ultural . music played with
vigorous percussion and various instruments. Their latest album, Portavoz("Voice Carrier"), continues their
evocative musical message with a sensational texture of sounds supporting
the international subject matter of
their lyrics. These albums are full of
catchy tunes that you might flnd
yourself humming at odd moments.

At the heart of Sabhl's music is hope

into joyful, soulful heart,. righ.t through
to swinging arms, clappmg ~ds and

Super planners expect 30,000
.'
by Suzette Williams
VVhen La~ Stenberg approached
Evergreen President Dan Evans nine
years ago with the idea of a community festival, he never thought it would
become an annual event that could
draw 30,000 people to the campus.
That event became Super S,aturday,
a one day festival the day before
graduation in June that combines food,
. arts and crafts and ' ' 'shrinks and
wizards" booths. This is'the tenth annual Super Saturday, and takes place
on June 4th.
Super Saturday is planned each year
by about 20 volunteers comprising the
Super ~aturday Committee. Stenberg
heads the.,committee, just as he has
sice 1979. ,"'. ,
.
"It's a working ,committee, not a
policy committee," says Stenberg.
Each memoer~ ts~ responsible -ror one
part of thtl festival, such as food, entertainment or tl1e . beer garden. They
begin ' meetlrlg bi-weekly in early
February, and starting , this month,
meet weekly until June.
,
, According to Stenberg about 90 percent of the committee is staff, but he
says, "they really come from all corners of the campus." Two faculty
members are on the committee, Earl
McNeil andDian~ Cushing'. Students
are hot presen~ly inv:olved, b.ut have

The first Super Saturday was planned in Qnly six week~ and drew over
4,000 people. Stenberg went to Dan
Evans and asked for $1,500 to put on
a one day 'event. This was during
Evergreen's ' hard times, explains
Stenberg, )Vhen the college had to fight
for enrollment.
"VVe had ~ worked really hard that
year on beefing up our enrollment," he
says. "The purpose for the event was
primarily to say thank you to faculty,
students and staff for their contribution to the college. It was also to say
thank you to the community for thier
support of the college."
Super Saturday was also a way to
bring attention to Evergreen and convince people to visit the campus.
Students shied away from the event
duing the -first couple -years, says
Stenberg, because ,they viewed it as a
"P.R. hype" and made it into a political
.
Issue.
On the tenth annual Super Saturday,
with 25-30,000 people expected, there
will be no problem with attendance.
"VVe have enormous numbers of people who come back as alums," says
Stenberg. He is pleased that students
now stay on campus specifically for the
celebration.
Because of the tenth anniversary,
says Stenberg, '''We've got a variety of
suprises planned. There will be things
happening in the sky and on the
ground." Although he will not reveal
specifics, one spectacle he "'ill reveal
is a 1,000 member kazoo band that will
play in Red Square at mid-day. "VVe'll
have a speical celebrity guest to lead
it," he says mischieviously. VVhy the
kazoos? , Well, says Stenberg, the
Guiness Book of Records holds no
record for kazoos.
'This year 120 arts and crafts booths
are planned, along with 55 food vendors and 25 "shrinks and wizards."
Stenberg emphasizes that ·all crafts
must be handmade by the seller, and
that no commerical vendors are allowed. The committee does allow some
commercial food sellers, but they are
the minority. VVhen applying for
booths, students, faculty and staff have
priority, followed by non-profit
organizations, he says.
The "shrinks and wizards" section,
composed of tarot card readers,
psychis, etc. began about the third
year, says Stenberg. A community
member said he was a tarot card
reader and didn't fit into the food or
the arts and crafts section. He suggested a "shrinks and wizards" section.
"We love to incorporate new ideas,"
says Stenberg.
Seattle newspapers last year called
Super Saturday the biggest one day
festival in the Northwest. Stenberg
says, "this may be a situation unique
to a collegiate environment 'in the
U.S."
Super Saturday is a self-supporting
event, financed by vendors, the beer
garden and sales of Super Saturday tshirts, buttons and other items.
S&A
Continued from 4
when the proposal was discussed in the
context of a new governance structure.
The positions, at least in the S&A office, would need to be re-evaluated and
perhaps expan~ed. Regardless of this
proposal, in order to offer support to
the members of a governance
committee.
The final item on the agenda, concerning the CRC, was not discussed
because of time constraints; and it is
the least developed of the proposals.
The proposal consists of a series of
questions regardjng CRC funding a
draft of a resolution instructing the
S&A Board Coordinator to prepare a
proposal creating S&A policy limiting
funding to the CRe and intercollegiate
athletics.
The retreat was held at the Ecologic
Place, located on Indian Island near
Port Townsend. The facilities cost $50
per person. The total allocation for the
retreat, the board's second of the year,
was $2,100.
