SEED plans innovative info kiosk
by Will H"wirr
inspired by City Repair in Portland.
SEED (Students at Eve rgreen for Ecological
-Design) is designing a renovation for an
information kiosk. This innovative stude nt
project combines origin al design with recycled
materials to create a space which is both useful
'and beautiful. Kiosk Rep:) ir will make an
information center for Evergreen 's diverse
Stud ent Activiti es gro ups. It wi ll also be a
gathering place where folks can pause to meet
and chat.
Ci ty Repair is 3 non-profit orga ni za ti on
formed to "reclaim urban spaces to create
community-oriented places." Their mission
sta temen t says that "City Repair inspires
communities and individuals to creatively
transform the places where they live. We
facilitate artistic and ecologica lly orie nted
placemakingthrough projects that honor the
interconnection of human communities and
the material world." They have facilitated
several projects in Port land, including th e
Moond ay T-I-Iows, Share-it Square, and the THorse. The Moonday T-Hows was an
exq ui sitely complex and beautiful structure
built entirely by neighborhood residents out
of recycled mate r ia ls in a consenting
neighbor's yard. Unfortunately. bu ildin g
codes requ ired that it be classified as a
tempora ry str ucture and disma ntled after a
short period of time.
Empowered by building the T-I-Iows,
they went on to reclaim an intersection now
known as Share-it Square. They p lanted
flower , painted a colo rful des ign on the

The T-Horse is an ethereal structure with
butterfly-like wi ngs that serve as s h el~rin g

The T-Horse drives through diffe rent
neighborhoods and stops to serve free tea . It
is also a fanciful art object which draws people

Like the T-Horse, Share-it Sq uare. and

We are trying to decide whether or not
we should keep our logo (please see
above) for the rest of the year. Do you like
it? Do you think it's ugly? Do you have an
idea for a Cooper PointJournallogo?
Please stop by the CPJ office (CAB 316)
or phone us (867-6213) or email us
(cpj@evergreen.edu)
with
your
suggestions and comments.
How to get involved
We have a number of meetings in order to be tter
the paper. One issue we'd especially like s tudent
input on is whether or not we should keep our
curren t clocktowcr-and-CPJ initials logo (see above).
If you have an idea about what our logo - or in
journalism-lingo, the "flag" - shou ld look like,.
please come up to our office, which is loca ted on
the third floor of the CAB building in room 316.
Our meeting times are as follows.
Story meeting

Friday 4 p.m.
Beginning in April, student and hourly
employees will transition to a twice a month
payroll . period. There are some important
changes that all student employees should be
aware of to avoid disruption or delay in their
pay. Documenting your hours and submitting
time sheets will happen more frequently, and
with that the increased possibility of errors
and missed deadlines .
The following are changes that will take
place and how they will impa ct you:
.The payroll period will be from the 1st
of the month through the 15th of the month
and the 16th through the end of the month.
You will have new time sheets that will
accomodate the new pay periods. Please
record your hours and sign in pen .
• It is important to submit your 'signed
time sheet to your supervisor immediately
after you have worked your last shift in th e
payroll period. This is necessary to process
time sheets, fix any errors, and make the
Payroll cu toff. Any time sheet that is received
after the cutoff date in the payroll office will
be processed a nd paid on the following pay
period.
elf you are a newly hired student, there
are three hiring documents that must be
submitted to the Student Employment Office
before you begin working: the Student
Temporary Action Form, 1-9, and W-4 . Your
supervisor should have you fill these out
before you start, or else there may be a delay
in your pay.
How to contribute content
Turn in your story on a disk and printed out to

Center for Atmospheric Research in Boulder
have been awarded a three-year rescarch
grant by NASA . This $225,500 gra nt will
support th ei r research into th e role of
magnetic fields in heating the atmosp here of
the sun.
Zita and Bogdan began th e ir work

Brazilian Landless Workers
Movement comes to Oly
On April 12, Maria Gorete de Sousa,
spokesperson for the Brazilian Landless
Workers' Movement (MST), will give two
presentations on the grassroots movements
of Brazilian peasants. The first will be at noon
in the TESC library lobby, and the second will
be at Traditions Cafe (300 5th Ave SW) at 7pm..
Ms. de Sousa has worked with the MST since
1986 and is currently a member of the MST
leadership in the state of Maranhao helping
to coordinate the national collective training,
as well as working on the political and Iieracy
courses in that state.
The MST, founded in 1985 by landless
peasants and unemployed urban workers,
has been successful in organizing thousands
of families to occupy land, forcing the
Brazilian government not only to distribute
land but also to look at the use of lan d as
having a social, economic, and environmental
function.
But despite its success, MST members
have been persecuted, imprisoned, and even
assassinated by landowners. A lso, recently,
the World Bank has demanded that Brazil's
constitution must be amended in such a way
that would require the landless to apply for
loans with which to purchase land from
landowners instead of using occupations and
direct action to win demands.
De Sousa will be joined by Columbian
labor and human rights activist Regulo
Madero, who will speak on the conflict in
Columbia and the dangers of working for
human rights .
For more information contact Lucilene
Lira Whitesell at 867-5038.
Emergency call for blankets,
. sleeping bags, and socks!
The Cold & Hungry Coalition, a
nonprofit organization which provides help
for the homeless of Thurston County, is
putting out an emergcncy call for warm
blankets, sleeping bags, and socks. These
items are desperately needed, as well as
duffel bags, shoulder bags, or backpacks.
The coalition is also seeking interns or
volunteers in several positions to help out on
a regular basis. They stress that only thosc
who can commit to consistently helping are
needed.
For more information, a friendly fellow
by the name of "Long Hair David" promises
to answer any questions if you give him a call
at 534-9278 or Cold & Hungry a t 352-2771.
The CPJ Business Side would
like to apologize to the Food
Service DTF and Piper Kapin
for any miscommunications
that may have arisen from the
editing of the Food Service
Ad in the March 15 issue of
the CPJ.
The mistake was made with
no malice aforethought, and
any ill will that was incurred
as a result of this error is
sincerely regretted.

Here comes Hesher wi th his
self-titled debut. Hesher is fat. He is
also phat. H e is the new Biz Markie.
That means tha t he is fI comic byproduct of the current music scene.
Imagine Everlast with a sense of
humor and a good ticker. He
assumes that mantle quite well. He
has what some would call "mad
s killz. " He does an absolutely
amazing co ntemporary version of
the WHO's "My Ge neration." And I
flm a lifetime WHO fan, so for me to
~ay th a t actually means something.
Hes her is Ihe kind of g uy who
co uld easi ly appear on th e
soundtrflck of every tee n comedy/
romance movie this s ummer and still
manage to remain unknown . He is
essentially the Smoking Popes of the
new millennium. He has the ability
to make a sappy love song like
"So m e things Always" sound
believable, then turn around and do
a speed metal song about a guy who
stole his lighter while they were
getting high . Hesher 's album is
damn good. Download an MP3 of
"Crazy
American
Cheese
Sandwiches" and then just try not to
go buy the who le album. I dare you .
PM . Tickets are 5 dollars for s tudents
and 6 for adults. Studio 321 is located
at 321 Jefferson Avenue, just a few
blocks from the bus station.

Kenny Rogers
I have to say tha t there are few things
that I know for sure in this life. One
is that I know when to hold them.
Two, I know when to fold them. And
finally, J know when to walk away.
Oh, I almost forgot, I also know when
to run. 1 also believe that Kenny
Rogers is the true Poet Laurea te of the
United States. Through a career
spanning nearly 50 years, he ha s
proven that his flnguish and his
triumphs are as much a part of the
American experience as growing up
in it small Montan a town. Kenny
Rogers is performing at the Puyallup
Fair on Sept. 18. Sure, that is a long
way away, but the tickets are already
on sale at $24.50 or $29.50 a pop.

Editorial by Danie l Fleck
The student who recently opened fire on hi s
classmates at his high schoo l in Soulhern
California shou ld certainly be brought to the bar
ofjustice. However, there are others who cOll ld be
added to the list of offenders and who lik e wi~e
should be brought to the bar ofjustice iti a silnilar
fashion . The school shootings that have swept th e
nation over the last few years will result onl)' in
some reactionary measure consisting of outrage,
nrtile lip service from our political and communit),
leaders. metal detectors, and German Shepherds.
A similar course of act ion s is taken to
alleviate the drug problem in this countr),. The
re sponse by our leaders and decision·makers
toward the drug problem is to construct morl'
prisons to hold these criminals. This is thenlaudeo
and ba cked vociferously by the general public.
There is little to no talk of publicly.funded
rehabilitation centers, which every study has
proven to be overwhelmingly more effective than
criminalization. Likewise, there is no public
dialogue in the mainstream regarding the root
cause of this problem. namely the social and
economic arrangements which breed widespread
poverty, misery, a nd deprivation-the reason ,
people turn to drugs in the first place . Th is
approach to the problem would require a critical
analysis of the social and economic arrangement s
and is consequently nullified from the publi c
dialogue.
There is a subtext to every school shooting
incident which is briefly addressed by the media
and then cast aside in favor of crude
sensationalism . The standard story. without
except ion, is that stud en ts who resort to these
mean s are mercilessly terrorized by their
classmates on a daily basis. It is precisely this
relentl ess emotional , verbal, psychologica l, and
physical abuse that ca use th ese outcasts to lash out
with violence.
It is a circul\lstan ce in whirh, r believe,

th ese unfortunate few. simply for the fact that they
are independenl.minded. They would have to be

Ihese stlldents are so stigmatized that even those
in ;lIIthority choose to turn their heads or keep one
eye avcrted. Th ere is no relief for the out cas t
among peers or f;\Culty. Faculty possess th e me;lIls
to prevent this tragic cycle. It would take little
more than a few seconds for an authority figure to
step in and prevent thi s abuse as it is unfolding,
ultimately eradicaling th e problem at its source.

on oil. I wouldn't be surprised if it is soo ll er
rath er than later. I applaud yo ur effo rts for
alternative energy; however. th e oth er 99% of the
U.S. population is no t co ncerned about
renewable energy use and is depending on oil
now more than ever.
While my perspective differs from thai of
WashPIRG, many other environmentalists. and
th e Gwich'in Steering Commi ttee. we do have
one thing in common: concern for the land. The
bottom lin e is that ANWR is goi ng to be opened.
and we are the people who are most concerned
that development will occur with th e least
amoun t of impact to our lands . The Inupiaq. the
only Native people on the North Slope, have been
dealing with the impacts of oil development for
decades. We are not a destroyed people. Our
culture is strong, our people are strong, and so
too will the Gwich 'in, residents of the Upper
Yukon Region, remain strong as development
occurs . The la st thing I want for th e Inupiaq
peop le is to destroy that which we, as well as the
Gwich'in, are dependent upon _ th e land and
'h""'''",
),ou are ass uming that the absolute worst
is going to happen upon opening ANWR. The
fact is. you don't know what will happen if
ANWR is opened. None of us know what will
happen. ANWR is our land; we are dependent
lipan it in ways Ih at I ca nnot express in words to

stating in her Ma rch 8 article, "Ca lherinC" has

cannot and do not wish 10 speak for all Native
people. Now. in my response, I would like 10 offer
you some voices other than my own. in the hopes
that , although you may not agree with th ese
op ini ons. you may understand the opposing
point of view. I furth er invite Megan and any
oth ers who have questions or concerns about
ANWR to get in contact with me at
ca th yrex[ord@ya ho o.com. I am more than
willing to discuss Ihis topic and can direct you to
some more information on this issue. With that
I will leave yo u with some statements from
Alaskan residents. Quyanaq!

the Gwich'in Steering Committee. It is a littleknown fa ct Ihat th e Inupiaq also rel y on th e

government, th e North Slope Borough. Inupiaq
people have taken a stand against the oil industry
to ell force environmental regulations stric ter
than the EPA. Therefore, it is ludicrous to suggesl
that the Inupiaq people would purposely and
willfully harm the food supply that has deep roots
in our cullure and tradition ... When did the
Gwic h'in tak e such a vested interest in the
caribou? I say this because the Gwich'in leased
out their lands in the 1980s for oil and gas
exp lora tion. To their dismay. this exploration
was unsuccessful. However, their lease
agreements co ntained no provisions to protect
the now "sac red" porcupin e caribou berd. At
leasl the Inupiaq in~luded measures to safeguard
the cari bou population affected by th e
development of Prudhoe Bay. To the Inupiaq. the
revenue derived from ANWR will enable the
Arctic Slope com munitie s to continue living
outside ofThird World conditions. The revenue
will support essential services,
lik e lo cal health care and police and fire
protection , that many people in urban Alaska
and th e lower 48 take for granted. Finally, stop
sensationalizing and start reporting all the facts.

"I fully understand the fears of many people that
the presence of the oil industry on the coastal
plains will disrupt the wildlife. They fear that
industry activity will destroy a part of this earth
that should be preserved. The Inupiaq people
probably feel those fears more strongly thall
people in the lower 48. In 1969,when oil was first
discovered on our lands, those fears were
foremost in our minds as we fought for se lf·
determination in order to be able to protect our
resources. Since then, we have had over twenty
years of working with the oil industry here , We
enacted strict regulations to protect our land,
and the oil companies have consistently met the
standards we imposed. ANWR holds resources

our legacy to our children. This land holds our
future and the survival of our culture. We have

"Our people sa id the same things the Gwich'in
are saying when they started developing
Prudhoe Bay years ago," said Oliver Leavitt
(lnupiaq), cbairman of the Arctic Slope
Regional Corp. (ASRC), which represents
8,000 pro-development Eskimos. "There goes
our way of life. The wildlife will go away. The
fish will go away. We were wrong. We found

regularly visit Washington to lobby Congress,
have refused numerous invitations from Mr.
Leavitt to visit the Prudhoe Bay oil fields and
villages on the North Slope. "The North Slope
was the Third World before they found oil. We'd
like to show them we haven't lost our culture, and
what oil has done for us, the schools and services
.... But every time we get close to bringing them
up, the environmentalists step in and the
Gwich'in back out. They are afraid of what the
Gwich'in will see," Mr. Leavitt said.
"The spring thaw comes in late May or early June.
This increases the bird count and brings back the
arctic fox and, most significantly, the porcupine
caribou. While only a portion ofthe caribou herd
shows up each year, many environmental
activists refer to the coastal plain as their
traditional calving grounds. The females endure
the conditions of the tundra for protection
against most predators and for the cotton grass
that will help to fatten their offspring. The

"We are the Inupiaq, and ANWR lies entirely
within our domain, entirely under the
jurisdiction of the North Slope Borough, tbe
home rule government which we created. As
mayor Of the North Slope Borough, I am here to
tell you that whatever happens within ANWR
affects us first. We are the stewards of that land,
and if we support a development plan, you can
be sure that we will have examined it and found
it to be sound. Our lives and our livelihood
depend on it. I can tell you, too, that we knew

which migrates through ANWR and neighboring
parts of Canada. About 140 Gwich'in live in
Arctic Village, which is 125 miles south of the
coastal plain and separated from it by the Brooks
Range. The Gwich'in have organized themselves
into a Gwich'in Steering Committee, which is a
white·dominated organization based in
Anchorage. It represents about 15 Athabaskan
Villages in Alaska and Canada. Tbe Group is
funded by environmental foundations and the
environmental organizations .... In the 1970s,
the Alaskan Gwich'in were fully supportive of oil
exploration on their own lands through which
the herd migrates. They offered leases to the oil
industry covering their entire reserve area. In the
early '70s, Exxon carried out seismic work in the
area before giving it up. In 1977, village leaders
went to BP Alaska Exploration to execute an
agreement for exploration and several surveys
were carried out. In 1980, the Rougeot
Corporation of Tulsa, Oklahoma , leased 1.5
million acres and paid several million dolla.rs in
lease fees. The lease agreement contained no
provisions to protect the porcupine caribou
herd. All these ventures came to naught, but the
Gwich'in were still preparing new lease maps ill
1984. They argue now that exploration activity
would not affect the herd. albeit they hoped for
eventual production, not exploration. This
position is very different from their beliefs
today." Excerpt taken from WWW.ANWR.ORG

Hello.
am
an
Evergreen Alumni and
member of the Bak Shaolin
Eagle Claw Kung Fu Club.
[ read the Cooper Point
Journal and spend a lot of
time on campus. I was
teaching
an
aerobic
kickboxing class for the
Leisure Education Program
and
placed
my
advert isements in your
newspaper. I was always
pleased with the friend ly
atmosphere of the CPJ office
when J came in to place an
advertisement. I will
co ntinu e to buy more
advertising space from you.
Thank you for your help.
My business has been
successfu l.
I have read Shas ta
Smith's sports page and
enjoyed most of them. I, of
course, appreciate all the
coverage of the Bak Shaolin
Eagle C law Kung Fu Club.
Our team has made some
amazing feats and should
be recognized. I have also
been reading Shasta's
Corner, which is insightful
and
sometimes
silly.
However, there was one
issue in particular, in which
Shasta revealed his plight
with Fine Host, which
caused
some strange
controversy.
In
the
following issues, there were
letters of attack on Shasta
regarding his issue with
Fine Host. Whether he is
innocent or not is not the
problem at hand. How can
you, the Head Editor, who
supposed ly has a good
employee bri ngi ng sports
coverage on weekly basis,

to be printed? Doesn't
Shasta represent the Cooper
Point Journal? Why are you
all ow in g him to look bad in
this newspaper? Shasta is
an emp l oyee of the CPJ.
Those a tt ack letters make
the CPJ and your job look
~111 professiona l.
What are your ethical
pro·c edures surrounding
this type of incider)t? It
appears that Evergreen has
some loose policies, and
you may want to represent
a free speech, "anything
goes"
spin
on
the
newspaper, but you have
gone far over the I ine. An
"anything goes" approach
can lead to ANYTHING!
This means that controversy
can manifest, and ugly
things can happen. For
example,
the
Cprs
employees
lose
their
integrity. Do you really
want people to continue
trashing your own spor ts
editor? Do you really want
to threaten the integrity of
the CPJ? That is what you
have done . A college
newspaper shou ld be more
positive than that. How lazy
and unprofessional'
I know Shasta Smith

respondingtotheletterwrittenby
Shas ta in Issue 18. And now, in this,
Issue 20, the two letters regarding
the crrs role in all of this.
First and foremos t, let me
inform vou that we have received
many ~ore letters to the e:ditor
than we have printed. This is due
to a number of reasons. Here is
where the CPJ Operations and
Ethics manual comes into play.
Over the years and different
various staffs , the CPJ as an
0 rga n i za t ion
hils
c rca ted
publication criteria (section 6 of
Operations and Ethics). If anyone
of the criteria arc not met, a letter
may not be run.
Section 6, sub -section H.
A c countability, item 1): "The

community members must make

The refor e, the Cooper Poin t
Journal does not accept copies of ·a
letter or other typ e of opinionexpressi ng submission that do not
have a phone number or other way
to directly co nta ct th e s ubmitter
before publication." This is to
protect everyone. If the CPJ
receives a letter a ttributed to Julia
Roberts, it's pretty obvious that it's
a fake, but what if the author's
byline sa id Jaime Rossman, the S &
A Board Coordinator, wrote the
con tr ove r sial letter? Without a
phone number to contact Jaim";'
with,itcouldhavebeenwrittenby
someone other than Jaime, and we
would have no way to check;
therefore the CPJ needs the ab ility
to contact every author.
Section 6, sub-section F.
Malicious Speech, item 1): "The
Cooper Point Journal will not
publish malicious material. An
item is malicious when a) it
explicitly threatens violence
toward an individual; b) it attacks
a person ' s character rather than
ideas or actions; c) it serves merely
to escalate a private conflict to a
public level. " A number of lette rs
regarding one aspect or another of
this ongoing dialogue have been
refused because they contained
some form of malicious speech . I
recognize that, very often, letters

the heat-of-the-moment mentality

Throughout these past few
weeks, I have been in co nst a nt
conference with the Editor"in-chief,
the Ma naging editor, and the CP]

and how to handle it. I feel that the

party here on campus, donated over
20,000 hours to the two boats.
Sea Wulff was named for a s tud ent
who died in a canoeing accident, a
carpe nter who had worked
ex tensively on the boats.
These boats carry with them a
little bit of all the people who cared ·
enough to give of themselves to see
tha t this school had a method to
explore Puget Sound that fit its
mission. Evergreen doesn't own the
boats so much as it borrows them
from its own history, from the people
w ho put so much of themselves into
the boats. It' s called s tewards hip.
Cutting funding to the boats means
the end of sa iling at Evergreen;
Sea Wulff a nd Resolute would be
sold off as "surplus ." Personally, I
co uld no more imagine se lling off th e
clock tow er.
Removing the funding means
the boats would have to be sold off
as surplus, and marine sciences
wou ld have no research platform .
Once they're gone, they're gone;
there will never be enough money in
the budget to replace them with
more modern craft. In short, it would
be the end of an en tire program. And
chartering research vessels would
cost vastly more than the current
expense the boats represent. There
are few places in the world where
st ud ents can have this kind of
program; all of them are mor~
expensive than Evergreen.
More than my personal
a ttachment to the boats themselves,
I see a dangerous principle being

establis h ed. If the boats are
el iminated in this round of belt
tightening, what will go the next
time the college doesn't get all the
funding it requests from the s tate?
The 16mm movie cameras, record
a lbum s, and pottery kilns all
certa inl y represent an investment in
skil ls and technology as "archaic" as
sail ing. Once the precedent has been
set, where will the line be drawnhow will we define what is and isn't
expendab le?
Someone once told me that "the
measure of your intelligence is the
number and complex ity of the
connections you make." If that is
true, than I have only one question
for those who are contemplating the
irrevocable elimination of an entire
facili ty from the curricul um and
those who support such a move: how
does this contribute to the diversity
of th e Evergreen experience?

summation response regarding ey~rything~~~
Since no one is without bias, let me
adm i t to mine immediately; I
consider myself a friend of a
majority of the writers involved in
the ongOing discussion in the Cprs
Letters and Opinions section
regarding Shasta Smith and Fine
Host. I count Shasta as a friend, as
I also count Aaron Anderson and
Annjeanette Daubert as friends.
However, I take my duties and
responsibilities as L & 0 Editor
very seriously, and , as such, have
made a conscientious effort to leave
those biases a t the door and follow
the establi s hed policies and
procedures of the CPj's Operations
and Ethics manual.

and the history of a very unique class
of boat.
Resolute was built in 1939 as a
training vessel for the Navy. In 20
plus years of serv ice, the Luders
Yawls provided training and
. recreation for 100,000 midshipmen.
During waterfront festivals around
the Sound, Resolute sti ll attrac ts
retired Navy officers who get a little
nostalgic about the "old girl."
Resolute and her sister ship, Flirt,
were purchased in 1972 for a dollar
apiece and restored thr ough th e
efforts of students, faculty, and
members of the community. Flirt,
incidentally, was used for parts, and
her hull sold. Jack Swendson and his
wife Cheryl have restored the boat,
and she is a fixture of the San Diego
wa terf ron t.
SeaWu lff was designed and
built here at Evergreen as a research
vessel. She was started in 1973, but
the original hull and the shop it was
in burned, and the project had to
sta rt over aga in. Studen ts, facul ty,
and commun ity members all
donated time and money to build
Sea Wulff. Don Fassett, a rctire_d

ULTIMATE
Open ga mes Monday at 4pm
by Gin Harbo ld
The Evergreen men's ten'n is team is not the same team it has been. After having zero-win records
over the last three years, the team now sits confidently on a .500 average. The team has almost tripled
its singles and doubles win count from last year.
On March 17th, the team squared up for a double header against Northwest Nazarene and Albertson.
They faced tough competition against Albertson, who is one of the upper echelon teams in the NAJA
region 1. Unfortunately, they were unable to pull off an upset, losing 9-0.
When they faced off against Northwest Nazarene, the team was looking to redeem itself for its los s
to Albertson and a loss earlier in the year to Northwest Nazarene. They succeeded with a 6-3 win. The
victory marked the first regional or conference win for the team since the mid 1980's, and it placed
them in the No.4 slot in the NAIA Region 1 standings.
The women's team had some unfortunate breaks this week. Only three players were available to
make the trip to Idaho, so the coach was forced to forfeit their match . The match against Albertson was
also canceled since only 2 players were available.
This week the men 's and women's teams will play 3 big regional games. The men face off against
Puget Sound on Wednesday, and both Lewis-Clark State and Seattle on Friday. The women take on
Lewis-Clark State and Seattle on April 6th , and Southern Oregon on April 7th .
