A year ago Terra Co mmon s was
fou nded by two Evergreen graduates who
wanted ro expand upon S.E.E.D.'s miss ion
to the greater O lympia community. Thei r
v ision has been to creatc an arena for
co mmunity members to lea rn the skills and
knowledge ro live in a more sustainab le
manner. The group has participated in straw
bale construction workshops, organized rhe
building of cob benches with third graders
at the Waldorf Schoo!, and co·sponsored
a communiry gathering in the West Side
neighborhood. Terra Commons was also an
active sponsor of the I st An nua l Sustainable
Living Co nference this fall.
The group is currently engrossed with
es tab lishing their mission sta tement and
;mieles of incorporation in order to file for
~o 1(c)-3 non-profir status. Once finished
wit h this process, Te rra Commons will

P
reside nt Les Purce announced a five
percent in crease ro student wages last
year. This confu sed many Greeners
- would paychecks get bigger? Would
the re be more jobs for students)
Turns out, no. It's just going to cost five
percent more to pay the same number of
people. Purce acknowledges the confusion.
In January, the Washington state mini ·
mum wage increased 18 cents, to $6.90 an
hour. The college can't pay students les s
than minimum wage, thus the increase ro
srudent employmenr budget. The shortage
of money ro pay sruden ts is made worse
by inequalities in the amount of mon ey
students earn. Some make twice as much
as others, which uses up money that could
pay other student workers. (The college
is trying to fix this disparity by creating a
student wage scale). There are about 1,000
jobs for students on campus, and some
work more rhan one job ar a tim e.
Not all offices will have the benefit of
increased funding for student employment.
Student group coordinarors, those who
work in the child ca re ce nter, and some
CRC e mployees are paid from a separare
pool, gene rated by student fees. Those
employers will have to squeeze their budgets
to meet the new minimum wage, and they
won't be ab le to request more money until
next yea r.
The college plans for anorher increase to
the student employment budgct next year
- again. only to avoid cutti n g jobs.
Bur next year could also bring J 15
percenr tuition increase, and about 100
more srudents enrolled at the college. So
more people will be competing fo r thc same
number of jobs, while paying more money
to go ro school here.

all those things in an hour a,!d a half.
The Jew ish Cu lmral Center hosted Rabbi Yehoshua Kahan, a teacher at a Hasidic sch ool
outside of Jerusalem. Kahan made Eve rgreen the last stop of a two-week tour of the states, and
about 25 Greeners came to hear him speak.
Kahan's two passions are environmentalism and Judai sm, but he found that t he ideals of one
often step on rh e roes of the o ther. The sc riptures, he ex plained, sometimes depict humanity as
master of t he world, sometimes as steward.
His message to e nvironmental activists: compromise.
"If only we co uld make t hings like they were in 1885. It's never going to happen," Kahan said.
"Ifyou try to grab everyth in g you e nd up with nothing."

El izabet h Mann's piece on KAOS (,'Evi l Geni us or JUSt a Guy Trying (0 Do H is Jo b")
was long on humor, but quite sho rt on contexrua lizing and analyzin g the situation . In
fact, it was highl y problemaric in irs tende ncy ro sim pli fy and persona lize rhe issues at
hand (i.e. whethe r or nOt S&A Director Tom Mercado is 3 "nice guy," or if O lym pi a',
co uillerculture eve r looks funny or self-righteo us) .
Dear Dr. hooks,
Ms. Mann did point our (q uite co rrec rl y) that Evergreen stude nts pay for abo ut 66%
of KAOS' budget through their S&A fees. She so mehow then goes on to defend Tom
(i.e. KAOS?) by statin g, "I try ro imagin e having a job where I am acco untable not
just to my boss, and not just to my co-workers, but to a co mmun ity of ve ry suspic io us
individuals who believe th at yo u're in ca hoots with 'T he Devil' or 'Corporate America,'
with the exp ress purpose of oppressing them by squashing rhe ir right to hear fo lk music
at ten o'clock in the morning w hile they're wate ring their herb ga rden and pain tin g
th eir 'Nader in 2004' banners. "
I am a student at The Eve~reen Stare College, and I a((ended your talk on January
29. I was exc ited (0 finally have the opportunity (0 hear you speak after having read
some of your writing. I was (Ouched by much of what you had (0 say about love and its
importance in the world and our personal lives. I appreciate yO~1 coming to our ca mpus
to be a parr of an imporrant ongoing dialogue about privilege. However, a response you
gave during the question-and-answer session concerned me.
I was disturbed by the excha nge you had abou r rhe in clusion of rransgendered people
in yo ur discussion about love. I feci you made two important statements in yo ur response:
yo u feel there is an unrealistic expectation for yo u (0 include everyone in YOllr discussion ,
and that a person ca n read themselves into w riting that does not include them. However,
I was saddened that yo ur respon se seemed both unlov in g and si lencing. First, by not
respecting Micha's gender identification, or acknowledging and apologizing after you were
aware of your mistake, I felt that yo u were continuing the oppression of transgendered
people by judging gender identity and not respec ting self-ge nder identifica tion. Seco nd,
refusing to address issues of transgendered people seems to further the in visibility of
transgender issues. Asking for inclusion of transgendered people is not something th at
is just being asked of you, but of all people who visit our community. 1 felt that the
respo nse you gave (0 Micha's quesrion se nt a message to the audience that transgender
issues are not important (0 a discussion o n love. As a member of a commun ity thar
incl udes rransgendered people, it is important (0 me that they be included in all eve nts
and discussions . Silencing their co ncerns fo r inclusion is opp ress ion . Being disrespectful
and opp ressive is nor acceptable ro me. I feel that ir is important for you to understa nd
h ow your words have impacted our community. I hope that you have had time to tnink
about the excha nge and will continue to concern you rself with including rransgendcr
issues in your discuss ion on oppression, privilege a nd love. I want to thank you again for
com ing to spea k at Evergreen. The iss ues rhat you spoke about are ve ry important and
have helped many of us to th ink in new ways.
This statement boggles rhe m ind! If, for example, she and o rher stude nts don 't w.lIlr
always hea r "folk" music at 10 a.m., ir would seem logical ro look to the people who
have presid ed over ma king KAOS what it is today, 1I0t the disenfranchised lisreners who
a rc ca ll ing fo r a more democratic decision-making process.
to
Neve rtheless, Elizabeth is pointing to a va li d issue. The current fOr/mr, with its trend
toward corporare shibboleths like "day-parting" and "b lock programming" does, J thi nk,
target an old er, more mo nied demographic rhan mos t stude nts fit into. In additi on,
numerous students who wanted to do radical or experime ntal shows have certai nly been
discouraged by KAOS from participating, espec ially during daytime heurs.
Since lis reners and studelHs a re bot h excluded from dim·tly participJting in the
decis ions that will shape KAOS , it is not really fair [0 define [heir inrerests as somehow
fundamelHally opposed to each other.
A fair solu tion seems li ke a democratic process whereby the comlllun ity gets to vore
on the big questi ons abo ut KAOS. I n fac r, KAOS Listeners for Democracy Now! is
ca lling for a Local Advisory Board th at will provide a mechanism for mea ningful and
measurable input into w hat we h ave been told for thirty years is com munity radio. W hen
listeners, students and volunteers are assured of having a place ,If the table, rhere will be
less resentment of Tom and othe r Evergreen staff for making the framing and de fi ning
decisions rhem se lves. We will all benefit from thar.

of na rional policy and proclaimed values. In shorr, what

Limiting this d iscussio n ro neolib eral is m versus

something else in mind. Neoliberalism is designed ro open

just as it occurred not so long ago, only by nation-states
rather [han corporarions. I am refe rring to co lon ia lism.
Today co rpor.uions and flnanciers can be more powerful

Nationalism, on the other ha nd, is the state-man.lged
protection of developing markets to limit competition

On rhe orher hand, foreig n en tities trying to do busi!)ess

Hypocritically, the U.S. trade and fore ign policy insists that

nationalism .
Neo libera li sm is nor concerned with democracy or
freedom or justice or equality. Ncoliberalism, as a theory
Jnd pracrice of capiralism, has one ulrimate goal: conrinuing
the accut11ul.Hion of wealth. When A rgentina's economy

This pattern can be seen t hroughour the many interactions between [he United States and rhe rest of rhe world,

There's no money to be "rely made rhere-yet. We do

neighbor on Sun,e[ Beach in the S,eamboar Island

kepl hi , life veSl un the enlire 45 minutes he was
Ihere, and left saying he was going to spend the
night at Mary', instead of mak ing the row.
Ir is unknown whedler or nor Jon ever entered
rhe waler. A neighbor heard the canoe scraping the
rock- a, .,omeune dragged il into th e waler al an odd

Despite dls~repan~ies in details. the Thurslon
County ShenfT s Manne Department sent oU[ lWO
boals wilh divers being towed behind ro search the
area of Eld Inlet directly in frolll of Mary's house
up to the point where the canoe was found. One
helicop[er was brought in [ 0 aid in [he search. This
~as on Tuesday, February 5, six days afler jon's
milial disappearance.
The search Tuesday" turned up nothing and I
personally told Dave Haller, Sheriff of Thursron
Co unry, that 1 was quite frankly saddened and
disappointed that il rook major media coverage for
thiS search lO reach lhe scale such dire Situations
demand .
Haller replied that if they had been colllacled
earlier that he could have been involved before
Tuesday. Then he trailed off into pseudo.official
rermmologr, basically blowmg ofT my inSinuation
that up unlll that pomt In tim: we had been dOing
hiSJob for h!m. The catch here ISthat Officer Pamela
Garland wllh the Evergreen Police Services did
notify the County Sheriff back on Friday, February
1, and no immediate action was taken.
<?n the eveni ng of Wed nesday, February 6,
rhe. fhurston County SherlfT released a s[atement
saylllg Ihey would keep divers and boats searching
the walers for the next week. ThiS stretch of seven
days IS almost unheard offor such a case; usuall y
they only search for lhree or four days, so all efTons
expended arc grcady appreCIated. .
. Offi cer Pamel a Ga rl and along wll h Mary
DlI1lalleO should be given the larges[ badge of
hono'. however. Officer Garland has been un [he
case 'Illce las[ Friday and has performed above
and beyond the call of duty. ThiS past Tuesday was
her day off and she spent the emire day at Ma ry's
house superv Ising the search, Just to be there.
This woman is absolutely incredible and deserves
all of our th anks. Evergreen's Director of Media,
S[anlcy.Bernstdn, has also been :111 enormous help,
contacung radiO stallOns and reporters and .. ding
any way he can. Ano[her thank yo u should. be
given to Andrea Seabert who has done everything
she can to aid us.
Now we ger down ro the nitty-gritty. jo n was
supposed to call Mary when he got home safdy and
IIldeed a phone call was made ... but from where'
fu of ye[ we have not had rhe authority to check
phone records of [hc nelghb~)[ who saw Jon las~,
[he pay phone at Evergreens boat"launch, Jons
V-dorm phone or any others. And IfJon did mdeed
make It back ro the Evergreen Side then why was
rhe canoe still on the Steamboat Island Side of Ed
Inlcr ' Gelting our hands on lhese phone rt"Cords
couldyrove crucial to thiS my~tery as they would
solidity some urnes that aren t yet nailed down
and Ict us know whelher or nOl Jon made it across
the water safely.
Why is it that Jon's case was nor recognized
as being severe until enough "imponant" people
found out' What kind of authority are we deal in '
with lh al will only liSlen ro [hose backed by ~
simil ar aU lhori ty? Why did rhe Sheriff not gel
on the scene on Friday or Saturday when he was
origi nal ly called by Officer Garland' Why wasn't
[his search put on full-scale alert two days afler
Jon's disappearance?
We jon's fa mily and friends covered every angle
we couid think of. from c.11Ii ng'va rious government
agencies to checking on bloodho unds and air

no, we haven't done this before ... so if your job
