s(udencs more ofan acccs..'i to subJt.'C[S considered
general educ.ltion. These subjects were found to
be I.lCking in Evergreen's cI,,-'>Srooms. In a 1996
,urvey of gr.lduating student's transcripts. 30 to
40 percent of ;;]1 graduates h.lo no experience
in art. science or math. Nearly 20 percent of
first-year students leave the college at the end of
each year. a phenomena which some attrihute
ro a lack of general education. The NCAC
recommended dlot Evergreen address the issue.
but g.lve the college the fret-dom to solve the
problem by any means it wished.
Thus. the General Education Disappearing
Task Force was created as a committee of
students. faculty. administr.ltion and staff to
help find an answer to the general education
question. They had a large task at hand. How
can Evergreen have more general education
without cramping its style?
This question was much debated in fuculty
meetings after the DTF made its first proposal.
After many failed tries. they finally pulled
together a package of initiatives nearly evetyone
could agree on.
The Evergreen answerThe first item approved was a list of
"Expectations of an Evergreen Graduate" that
will guide the general eduCition process. They
are:
1. Articulate and assume responsibility for
your own work.
2. Patticipare collaboratively and responsibly
in our diverse society.
3. Communicate creatively and effectively.
4. Demonstrate integrative, independent
and critical thinking.
5. Apply qual itative, quantitative. and creative
modes of inquiry appropriately to practical and
thl'Oretical problems across disciplines.
6. As a culmination of your education.
demonstrate depth. breadth. and synthesis of
learning and the ability to reflect on the personal
and social significance of that learning.
Faculty members rejected the proposed ways
that st udents m ight demonstrate they had
fi.tlfilled each of these expectations. leaving the
statements with no practical backup. These
expectations will. hO\vever, become more visible.
Faculty might address each statement in their
program descriptions. but this is not required.
The expectations are in the new program
catalogue as well as in advising and advertising
publications. They will not appear anywhere on
student transcripts.
The second faculty-approved initiative
concerns advising. The fuculty will begin lending
a hand in advis ing students. The approved
advising structure is:
I. All faculty will hold advising conferences
with their students each year based on a selfreflect ive piece written by the student ... .
Students will document this conference in their
own portfolio.
2. At the end of the senior year of study. each
student will be encouraged to create a summati""
self-evaluation that addresses expectation 6 [ofan
Evergreen graduate, described above].
3. r'aculty and staff ... aided by the Advising
Office and the Learning Resource Center. will
support this activity as part of each srudent's final
quaner ofwork, and will review and critique the
evaluation at dleir final conference.
4. The summative self-evaluation will go into
the student's transCript.
The summative self-evaluation would not
only be a review of the last quarter. but of the
entire time spent at Evergreen. It would serve as
a way for students to reflect and as a sort of"rable
of contents" to the entire Evergreen transcript.
which can be quite large. The summative selfevaluation is encouraged but not required. Also.
during the fuculty advising s=ions students wiU
be encouraged to create a loose academic plan.
but this is also not required.
C hanging how Evergreen's curriculum is
made was at the root of a hot debate last year.
The DTF g.lve the faculty some suggestions
for changes in the way teachers are placed in
classes. all of which were shot down. However,
some new changes will be instituted this year.
The new changes will affect all programs in
some manner.
First. the faculty is going to try to include
more quantitative reasoning, art and science in
Core programs (quantitative reasoning is a term
that Evergreen is using to describe ski.lls that
involve mathematics and statistics as applied
to evetyday situations). Faculty also asked
fo r more cross-divis ional programs. where
a variety of subjects would be taught. The

economy endures its most
difficult month in a generation: Airlines, hotels and resraurants sacked tens
of thousands of workers in Ocrober, according to official staristics, taking the
unemployment rare to 5.4 percent, a five .yea r high . President Bush expressed
grave concern about rhe counrry's dereriorating economic performance and
again called on the country's lawmakers to pas s an emergency $100 billion
financial package before rhe end of the month. "Jr's nor good news for America, "
the President sa id following a meeting on the employment numbers with cabiner
members. This week has seen rhe release of rhe first series of economic figures
to fully reflecr the financia l impacr of rhe rerrorisr arracks. These suggesr thar
claims that the global economy could shrug off the terrorisr atrocities were wide
off rhe mark, U.S, consumer spending is falling at its fastest pace in t4 years,
and rhe country's manufacturing sector is dereriorating ar its sharpest rate in 20
years. Meanwhile, rhe number of American s claiming unemployment benefits
has surged ro an IB -yea r high. (see www. thetimes .co,uk)
Ashcroft announces new plan to crack down on "aliens": The recenr
anti-immigrant backlash co ntinue s with Artorney General John Ashcroft's
announcement of a sweeping immigrarion crackdown, designating 46 terrorisr
groups whose members and supporters will be banned from entering rhe United
States, The attorney general also announced rhe creation of a foteign rerrorisr
tracking task force to "neunalize the rhreat of rerrori st aliens." According to
Immigration Commissioner James Ziglar, this new policy is not about halting
rhe flow of immigrants to the United Stares (of course), but about eradicating
evil. (see www.latimes.com)

neW albulll "Li testyles," I ",ant to Ic,lrIl the

Ufll
But Ivan is nO( in love. He says the muse
for his album was his gi rlfriend at the time
dnd her daughter. But it also celebrates
e-mail love letters , the huma n experience,
friendships, underground art and freedom
in general. He says ofhimself:
"Playground Tornado, got a so ul made
of velcro."
By the second song of the album, Ivan
says, "I understand emotional vo ice" with
the leaning sounds of his guita r and lyrics.
Throughout the album, you don't have to
listen ro his songs; he does the work. He
drives you to different rooms in the house
of your mind . One second YO Ut ears are in
a small room listening to an acoustic guitar
and a sweet voice, and the next moment you
are at a hip hop show watching someone
~cratch records and bear-box with the lips
and tongue of his mouth.
In his songs, he's a masrer of escape
routes. No melodies are simple. His voice
is constantly jumping up and down. He
reminds me of Donovan, David Bowie, the
LIS:
"You're pretty and young with a philan throp ist's tongue, but yo u've never been
known to really help someone."
The" liongs never medirJtc. IV~1I1 sa mples

H,ddenly changes key' and styles. As for
style. he h,,, been cOll1p~ red to Beck, but
Ivan was Hound before him.
The ,dbum is original bee luse it contains so many dements of difTerent genres;
it is constantly trickling all over the place.
Do you remember when you dropped ink
on a page and took a straw and blew the
ink into rivulets?
In terms of roots, youth found Ivan
listen ing to the Eurythmics, Huey Lewis
and the News, the Ca rs and Publ ic Enemy
(some of which he admits are cheesy and
uncoo l these days). His mother got him
into music. H e says, "I was in bands
growing up, and we'd bang on upturned
garbage cans and play Casios and thumb
pianos and make up songs like that."
He has ptoduced a very good album,
but he has not kissed his greatest work. He
has much more to bring up. He says of
the future, "I just want ro record the mmt
awesome record ever.
Go down to Olympia World News and
see him this Friday. H e wi ll be playing
many songs from hi s new alb um . His
shows are described as unpredictable an d

When "Worst Comes to Worst"
You Can Depend on Dilated Peoples
JiYNiite BOgen
I know you are tired of your run-of-the-mill studio gangsters
and MCs on MTV spirting incoherent lyrics at you so fast that they
might as well be installed in a vat of churning butrer. However, the
new Dilated Peoples album, Expansion Team, will el\d your misery.
This is rheir second major release from rhe old school boys down in
L.A. They were freshly established back in '92 when Dilated Peoples'
ftont men, Evidence and Rakaa lriscience, started hooking up after
freesryle sessions in L.A,'s Hip-Hop Shop to collaborate and get
some unique rhymes flowing.
Once rhey hooked up with OJ Babu, it was a march made in
heaven. After some shady deals, an "educational" record contract,
and some recol].struction, Dilated Peoples rook over their own affairs.
By now they have built a firm reputation as a crew thar could tear
up the stage and spit poetry th.a t put many other acts ro shame. It
wasn't until their second release on ABB Records, W0':k the AT/gles,
that Dilated got worldwide recognition and media covetage. Nexr
move: what's to lose if you go ~ajor? Norhing. So in '99 Dilated
signed to Capitol and released The Platfonn il\ 2000. Just over a year
later, they're keeping it solid and true on Expansion_Team.
Speaking on his lyrics, Rakaa says, "My father, and his father,
both spoke the word of the Lord. The difference with me is that
I speak il\ the real world, not some fantasy land il\ the sky." No
doubt, Dilated raps about what they know and what matters, Their
flrsr single off the new record, "Worst Comes to Worst (My People
Come Fitst)," shows that these men are conscious of what it means
to have family, friends, and the words [0 express. Dilated also takes
on "War," with Babu spinning Druid chants and marching drum
beats to a slow-bouncing spoken word piece about war's immoraliry
and the battle for its elimination. On "Proper Propaganda," the boys
attack the mainstream media's dominance over public opinion and
challenge you to think for yourself, Dilated may be rehashing old
ideas, but they have their own dynamic. OJ Babu provides enough
original spiraling melodies to make anyone's cranium turn a full
rotation. On "Trade Money," the doUar bilJ gets ripped in half as
Dilated explains why money may bring wealth, but is still nothing
if you aren't happy. OJ Babu asks the scratchy question, "How that
sound?" Answer: absolutely dope. Dilated likes to emphasize that
without the OJ, the hip-hop crew is incomplete_.
From the gripping beginning with "Live On Stage" to the
affirmative end on "Expansion Team Theme," Dilated have produced
a well-constructed piece of act that needs no interruptions. To top
it off, Tha Liks, J-Rocc, Rhetrmatic and Melo D, Black Thought
from The Roots, and The Alchemist make welcome contributions.
If Hip-Hop needs maturiry, Dilated Peoples are helping bring
it to its prime.

aVe you seen the display for the
Day of the Dead? If you haven't,
it will still be up for a few days. The
hangs up work irom

her senior thesis,
have some of their window space to
share this cu ltutal holiday with you.
Dia d, IOJ Murrtos, or Day of the Dead ,
is a celebration that emphasizes dearh
as parr of the cycle oflife. It is a joyous
day dedicated to the memoty of those
who have gone before us. Here dea th is
not viewed as so mber, but instead as a
journey - a continuation of life.
It is a festival of welcome for the
so uls of the dead who, it is believed,
return Ol1ce a yea r fo r a few hours to
co mmune with rheir loved ones and
to enjoy t h e ea rrhly pl eas ure s they
knew in life . The livin g delight in
the preparation of food and dtink for
their deatly d<:paf(ed loved oneS. Altars
are built to honor relatives w ho have
pa\scd.
The hi"ory dates IlJck to preCo lumbi an traditions thal h onor the

with Europl.:.·i.;n rc li gi~)us influ e nc es.
Also known as a two-day celebra tion ,
LOJ Dim d, IOJ M"trtos, this holiday
comb in es the Cat ho lic traditions of
All Saints' Day (November I) and All
Sou ls' Day (N uvember 2) with ancient
con cepts of dearh that hav!! been parr
of Mexican society sin ce the reign of
the Aztecs. It is believed that the so ul s
of depaned children (las angditoJ)
come to earth un November I, and the
souls of the adults visit on November
2 (EI Dia de los Grand,,).
Festivities vary from one region
to another and even from one
person to another, bur there are
some common themes throughout.
Skeleton-hemmed candies, pastries
and toys are common sights. Alrars,
comp lete with food, drihk, candles,
marigolds (cempllzuchiies) and photos
are cre •.ted to welcome the souls of
the dead and to allow them to enjoy
rhe earthly pleasures they knew in
life. In many communities, ir is not
unusual to find musicians, dancers
and fiestas at the gravesites of loved
ones .
The altar in the bookstOre window is
surrou nded by pictures from Chicano
arti sts around tbe theme of the Day of
rhe Dead. To the left of the altar is a
print by artist Danny DeSiga, created

Things like this are normal in the Evergreen

wider Olympia community. These images
did not register positively with the wider
Olympia communiry. We should never lose
sigh t of the fact that our goal is fo'r people
to understand us. On a personal level. of
cou"e. we have the right to be whoever we
want to be. and we don 't have to bow to
ot he r people's id eas of normal. But on a
political level, when we are try ing to spread
our ideas and beliefs to a wider community.
we havc to think about how people will
react to how we communicare our ideas .
The ot h er reason our message wasn't
positively received was the failure to coordillatc the march up Cap itol Way with
p olice. I know that gerting a "pe rmit" to
protest is see n by some as a violation of
our Consti( ution ~d rights. But if we don't

Blocking streetS without a permit is a
vcr)' risky proposition. not because of thc
danger of arrest. but bccause the message of
rhe protesl will ger lost if roo much attention
is paid to protest raerics. During the WTO
protests. peoplc blocked the streets to stop
a very imidious supra-national entity from
meeting. In that situation. blocking strects
had a tangible effect on the WTO. Blocking
a street in Olympia does not have a tangible
effect on the war in Afghanistan. The tactic
took attention away from our opposition to
the war and focused attention on a group of
people who were tying up traffic.
Protests must relay vety specific messages.
For ex~mple. in the last two weeks we've
bombed the Red Cross in Afghanistan tw;c• .
This is a great reason to hold a protest. But
instead of just marching down the street
chant ing. what if we get permission to raise
money for the Red Cross? Then we make
up a flier that talks about the Red Cross
and the massive st.rration that will occur
in Afghanistan if the bombing doesn't stop
now. Then we wal k down the sidewalk
giving out these fliers and asking for donations ro the Red Cross. This rype of protest
will resonate with people because we're not
just against the bombing; we're for the Red
Cross. It changes peopl e's minds because it
forces them to think about what is happening on the ground in Afghanistan.
I know that many Olympia activists
won't agree with me. I also know that
this is not a magic solution for srapping
the war. But I also know that the term
"G reene r" produces a negative reaction
in the wider Olympia commun iry, and if
we don't cha nge our linage, we will never
be a p osi tive influe nce for cha nge. I'm
writing this because I expect. response
from people. I want to hear other people's
Ihoughts on Saturday's prote.S! and on ways
to effectively change people's minds about
rhe war and about orher self-destructive
policies of our government.
I was the man in the tri-cornered

everyone about how we can successfully

ways to stop th is war.

The Mysterious Diminution of
Evergreen's Governing Document
hYBen Green
I
n 1969. Evergreen's first governance and decision-making
document, WashingtOn AdminiStrative Code (WAC)
174-107 (hereafter referred to as 107), was ",ritlen.
Among other things it explicitly outlined the details of Evergreen's
socia l contract. standards for decision-making. the formation
and functioning of the Evergretn Counci l and attendant
subcommittees and DTFs (Disappearing Task Forces). procedures
for filing grievances and conducting necessary hearings. evaluation
of governance. and procedures for amending the governance
document. Since then. several changes have been made; many
of them trivial. some subrle in their impact while others arc.
to say the least. severe.
In 1987 a proposal to repeal 107 was initiated with the intent
to replace it with WAC 174-120 (hereafter referred to as 120).
Document 120 proposed some significant changes. many of
which were finally implemented the following year when 107
was actually repealed and replaced by 120.
One of rhe most notable and easily detectable changes is
the definition of the "Evergreen community." Initially this was
defined as "cu rrently enrolled or on leave students and all staff
and faculty in payor on leave status." In the 1987 proposal
this definition was changed to "all individuals who are enrolled
in classes andlor employed by the college." but by 1988 the
definition had become more restrictive. stating that only "current
students and employees while present on college property or
ar a college sponsored event" were members of the Evergreen
community. Why this redefinition that changes the status of
students who live ofT campus or are on vacatio n?
Another importalit alteration implemented by 120 involves
the deletion of the first sentence of the first statute of the
original Social Contract. 'The Evergreen State College requires
a social contract rather than a list of prohibitions and negative

that war (which has not ended). and we have

The inscription on Ihe Statue of Liberty is a
beautiful poetic ideal. But we must acknowledge
that w( created the people described in the
inscription. Weve stolen from them and killed
them. And when World Refugee Day comes
around next June 20. while we stand "in recognition and empalhy for the world's refugees." we

numbers and to their miseries.
rules." With that deleted. two new sections are added: WAC
174-120-030 that is a list of prohibitions and negative rules. and
WAC 174-120-040 Ihat details the "corrective actions" the college
may take in response to any violations of the aforementioned
list of prohibitions.
A revised chapter on conflict resolution was publishcd. WAC
174- 120-050. that's basically a more general incarnation of the
original WAC 174-107-360 that references the capabilities of the
cwo nt'w sections mentioned above.
On the whole. 120 is a drastic modification and reduction of
107. While 10 7 was 26 pages deal ing with a variety of issues in
detail. 120 is barely over 9 pages and. aside from its vety specific
list of prohibirions. is somewhat vague in its conrent.
Since 1988 however. 120 has also been repealed and replaced
by an even less detailed document only 1.5 pages long. WAC
174-121-01 0 is all that remains of the original governance and
decision-making document. The definitions of terms at the
beginnings of the first two incarnations are gone entirely. All that
remains of Evergreen's governing document is a slightly modified
copy of the original social contract.
When the govcrning document is reduced to little more
than a philosophical statement of belief. how docs the college
run itself' What other documents guide tbe college in its
opperations and why are they no longer conso lodated into a
single gove rning document'
