imeon Terry, duough a matter of his own will power, has
reversed hi storical perce ntages that say if you are born
a criminal you will always be one. And he is currently
a stude nt ar The Eve rgreen State College who is willing to
tell h is tale.
Five days before his morher died, Terry sot at her bedside
holding her hand, while blood ran from his knee down his leg.
His orange jumpsuit concealed handcuff.s locked ro a chain
around hi s waist. Two metal bars ran the lengrh of his legs
ro prevent his escape. One of the bars was rubbing alongside
hi s right kn ee, gouging inro it. Terry sar in the room for the
afternoon bu this mom had been coma rose for days.
"I read to her our of a book called The Tib"lrllI Book o/Living
and Dying, and I basi Gdly rold her · '1 love you , and don't fight
for me. juS! accept this s tage, and everything is all right. I love
you, and this is going ro be our goodbye.' I could rell she
understood. Sh e jusr squeezed my hand with hers, and her
eyebrows clenched , and tears came out of her eyes. I knew
she was there somehow."
Terry ha s said goodbye a lot. Ill' has spenr time in the
nightmare we sometimes have. The one in whi c h we are
controlled, and our power is raken away, our voice boxes are
removed, we're talked down ro, and we only swallow orders.
Terry says th e guards at Maple Lane, a juvenile prison in
Centralia WA , where he spent 271 weeks, control the inmates
until they are hopeless. But the guards aren't at fault.
The guards ar Maple Lane reflect th e way the world sees the
300 or so youth aged 16 to 21 who are incarcerated there . They
are in there for killing or rap in g or beating people up, stealing
cars , selling drugs or destroying property. Terry himself was
thrown in for stealing a car and possessing a firearm.
The inmates are used to being labeled and referred ro solely
by rh eir crimin al records. They've grown up being punched,
thrown against walls, shoved down and thrown in garbage cans.
Th ey've bee n sho t at and seen th eir friends die, and rhey've
grow n up h,lvi ng to defend themsel ves.
Th e p riso n itself is th e hard es t place fo r th em to defe nd
themse lves, b eca use eve rything is stripped from rhem. When
Terry W.lS ad m itted [0 Ma pl e LIIlt: he desc rihes how th e firsr

It so unds like an excellent deal for a hig h
school student: you go to college on rop of
yo ur regular classes, while earning college and
high school credit a! the same time. Plus, th e
tuition is free . The Running Start program
puts 13,000 Washington State hi gh schoolers
in college classes.
Evergreen docs not have a Running Starr
prog ram . but that will change if Evergreen
planners ger their way. They hope that the
program would improve Evergreen's image
in local high schools . eventually bringing in
more applicants.
Most Running Stan students go to community colleges; so me even fini sh high school
with an assoc iate's degree. Some do the
program because they can get free college
credit, some do it ro escape the atmosphere
of high school.
What's a great deal for some students
is turning out to be a logistical tangle for
those who would have to accommodate them
- Evergreen's staff, administrators, and
teachers.
The college has to treat Running Start
students just the same as any other. Faculty
ca n't even ask which of their students arc in
the program and which are not. That raises
so me questions,
How do you admit high school students
when you don't have an entrance exam, and
one of the criteria is a high school diploma?
How do you integrate a 16-year-old high
school junior into a three.quarter, full-time
program' How many more students would
attend Evergreen' And who will do ,t il th e
extra paperwork?
So far. Evergreen pldnners haven·t ;olveJ
Jn y of th ese problems. Bur Ih ey're moving
f{)r~vard anyw"y.
Befu re the co llege Glil accept Running
St.tft students. the State Legislarure: must gran t

both th e House and Sena te high er educalion
committees approved bills - with little
opposition - that wo~ld do just Ihal. That's
the fir st step. Next , the bills musr pass a
vote of the full House a nd Se nate; finally.
the Governor must sign off for Ihe bills to
become law. ·
The bill 's prospects of passing look good.
says Edie Harding, the college's liaison to
the Legislature.
" Even though the y [the legislative com·
mirrees] passed it. that doesn't mean we' II
do it. " she sa id . "I can't imagine il'lI happen
within (he nex t two years. "
Why so much effort for a pro!,\ram far in
the future with ma ny complications'
Some at the co llege say the program's
ap peal lies in the money Ihose students would
bring. A college report from last spring said
Evergreen could stand to gain $255.000
from the program if a third of the Running
Start students who go to South Puget Sound
Comm·unity College went to Evergreen
instead - that's about 130 students. The
Running Sran srudents can be made to pay
student fees separate from tuition. and they
have the right to participate in any student
groups outside of collegiate spans.
Edie Harding says the college would not
make money from Running Start right away,
and only hnpes the program will pay for itself.
She says the program's biggest benefit would
come from improved relations with local high
schools. College admissions counselors say
Evergreen is less than popular with many instate high schools, and high school guidance
counselors sometimes dissuade students from
applying to Evergreen. Harding hopes rhe
Running Start program would give the college
more credibility among those counselors. As
she puts it. it 's an opportunity to show how
Evergreen works.
And m aybe. co llege planners hope. some of
those hi gh schoo l stud e nt s would finish their
degrees at - as one high school cou nselor
said to an Evc rgn.:cn cOllll., do r - {hat hippie
school.

Day, as celebrated by the mil itary/industrial
complex. nor Valenrinc's Day. as celeh rated
by th e greeting c. rdlfloral cumplex. but
Vagina Day, a celebration of women and an
international movement to SLOp vio lence and
abuse against women and girls. Inspired by
Eve Enslcrs play "The Vagina Monologues."
V-D'ly began in 1998 with a performance by
some of our country's biggest stars , including
Whoopi Goldberg, Susan Sarandon, and
Glenn Close. V-Day has been celebrated on
more than 450 college campuses across the
world, including Cornell, Friedrich Schiller,
and Mills and Anyajua Comprehensive
College in Cameroon.
So what are "The Vagina Monologues"?
First performed off-Broadway by Ms. Ensler,
"The Vagina Monologues" arc based on
interviews with a diverse group of hundreds of
women. from a Long Island antiques dealer [0
a Bosnian refugee. 'The Vagina Monologues"
ask such questions as: do women like their
vaginas? What do women call their vaginas?
What can you rell about a woman by the
way she moans when she's aroused? The New
York Times calls "The Vagina Monologues"
"funny" and "poignant," and the Daily News
says it's "intelligent" and "courageous."
"The Vagina Monologues" will be performed at TESC in the Communications
Building Recital Hall. Room 107. February

Picture this sce ne w irhout newspapers. M any are tossing
out the ritual of newspa per reading. Now we have rhe web in
o ur lives . Does that mean our Sundays and newspaper reading
habits will change? They already have for many Americans
and m ore for people in the rest of the world. The complete
structure of how we get our news entered an unexplored
dimension when we obrai ned t he Inte rnet.
A lot of di sc u ss ion is going on about 'the future of
newspapers. It isn't only the way co nsumers receive their news.
Jt is the news itself. One only has to go to any search engine to
access AP (Assoc iated Press) and a myriad of other resources.
You can go as far as you want with a sto ry and the srory is even
written that way. If yo u look at an AP sto ry, it is writren so the
story can end at any point.
The iss ue of sources comes to mind. If a reporter does not
have a one-on-o ne interview with a source, will c redibility be
dim in ished? We ca n no longer rely on reporters on the web
J
ust as Bush promised us, the war
on ter ror isn't limi ted to far away
barely-developed cou ntries hidden
the darkest recesses of ear th . In s tead, th e
ban Ie field is also in the heart of t he brightest
sh inin g star - America. How will the war on
terror m a nifest itself on US soil? It starrcd
by increasing a nd j ustify in g racial profiling
to round up te rrorisrs - an o utri gh t arrack on
our civil liberties . Now it has expanded the vagu e
definit ion of terrorism to include those who fund
terrorist org<lnizations. Who might thi s be'
Illegal drug users.
US taxpayers recen tly paid $3 m il lion for
commercials aired du ring the Superbow l that
furt her criminali7..e illicit drug users, linkrng their actions to
sup porti ng terrorists , because some terrorist orga nizations
make money fro m drug sales, and USe it to buy wea po ns.
Now not on ly are some drug users c riminals, they are
also unpatriotic! Of course, rhis doesn't apply
to people who aid Bacardi, Philip-Morris, or
pharmaceutical co mpanies,
What w ill we do with all these terrorist sym path ize rs? We will likely extend the war against
m anager, it is q uestionab le
whet her or not students will
be allowed berre r access to
airtime. With comm uni ty

pressure the statio n into

J(
he "cell
the 32 million Ame ri cans living in the sta te of Poverty,
alo ng with an even larger number of illegal d ru g use rs.
Obviously, more funds will need to be appropriated fo r
th e pr iso n- industria l co m p lex to house th e m all. To do
this, we'll need to cut tbe meager funds cu rrently going to
dru g rehabilitarion centers. And to c rack down on these
wo uld-be terrorists, we'll need tl' furt her increase our police
and mi litary forces.
Of co u rse, this W;lf call't be won just ar home. The war
on drugs is now expand ed and subsumed unde r th e war on
terror. That means go ing afre r drug producing co untries with
fu ll -scale m ili tary operariom, nor just mon e tary aid. Th.e day
after the Superbow l commercials depicted a person saying
that thq he lp eu kill Colombian fami lies by using d rugs,
President Blish announced hi , revised aid plan to Co lomb ia.
Hi s " Iall ,hif" aid for coca eradication cam pai gns to military
a"i,t<lnce in protecting oil pipelines that have been the
tugets of revolutionary str uggl e. (Not) coincide n "lly,
Occidelltal Petroleum , HP Amoco, Shell and Exxon Mobi l,
US corporations, have la tge interests there and have lost
mill ions of dollars in profits because productio n has bee n
ha iled. This means we will be invading yet another counlry
to protect our nat ional security (i.e. due to our dependence
on oi l).
The days of needing a military large enough to be prepared
to fi ght two full-scale wars are over. Today's military should
be prepared to fight on every cont inent, simultaneously. We
will need more guns, more bombs, more cops, more jails, and
more profits to protect America from itself.
If this is rhe route we are taking, then this country is well
on its way to fasci,m and totalitarianism. The misleadingly
nam ed USA-PATRIOT Act suppresses individual rights in
favor of corporate-s tate security. Bush , by defining th e issue
as he sees it, good versus ev il, while using corporate media,
is attempting to co nrrol nol jusr econom ic and political
issues, but also pub li c values, attitudes, and beliefs. This
capitalisr ideology leaves no room for true democracy, a nd the
Republic-rats will defend rh is new wave of liberal-tight w ing
entrenchment. The "D rug and Terror war" is a war against
all of us - the middle class, the poor, minorities, drug users
a nd addicts, act ivists, and students. Strangely enough, the
enemy is not the people we are bombing in Afg hanistan.
T he enemy is right here.
We must not accept Bush's definit ions and answers. We
mus t resist the call for in c reased military spend in g and
intervention s in other sove reign narions. We must reject
the notion of an "axis of evil," which may be intentionally
fuel in g increased tensions in the world, a possible justification
for our future ac tions abroad. We shou ld never ass ume rbat
the rulers make st upid mistakes, because they are n't stupid.
One of the rules of war is never underestima te your enemy.
Know yo ur enemy.

the importance of how you get your news
OU wake up and stre tc h. You feel life slowl y creep into
your li mbs. If yo u lay still enough you can follow t he
path through your body. Yes, you can close your eyes
again if yo u wa nt. You know this because you didn't awake to
the alarm today. Jf is Su nday: t he day man y foc us o n and draw
strength from throughout the week.
If yo u a re lucky you have your coffee brewing and perhaps
your Sunday includes a parrner. If you a re really lucky your
paper is delivered. Although sometimes you find the groggy
trek tl) th e local m a rket in your worst lookin g but most
co ;nforrable sweats a treat. Don't be surprised w hen you stop
r.lid-weck and are eyed carefully as if rhey have w itnessed yo u
goi ng through a ch ameleon expe rience.
So now you sit and sta rt to read . Everyone seems to have
developed a m ethod of doing this. Fo r so m e rhey must read
the paper firs t and in order. Others wait for sectio ns at tim e as
if being given tidbits of o ld news . It is a classic tradition and
comp letely harmless . (Unless fights occur over th e sect ions

is concerned, t he web is replacing "live" so urces. Will
that pur tec hnology ahead of our ethics and principles
again? It will happen so fas t that we will be reacting
instead of pre paring.
I write this because I sec a disappea ring art. I believe that
newspapers will always be wi t h us in some format. I
t hink they will provide a different service than they
have in th e past. As with all Internet capabilities
we find , the news will eventually find its own role

Nine m on rhs ago
Steve
H e rman ,
profe ssor emeritu s, asked a
group of stu dents he had
worked
wirh
for their opi n ion on a group
con tract he had
been thinking about .
During his travels in Latin
America ,
Dr
H e rman had
found what
he though t
was the ultimate tropical lanusClpe [()
st ud y in the fo re st ;!round the town of
Alamos in Sonora, Mexico. Th e fo rest
is one that has received little attention
until rece ntl y anu is the winter grounds
for mi gra ting birds we had been stuuying. All of thi s a day's trip from the
border. We jumped on it irnmediate ly
and by dinne r t ime he had marc students comm itted [0 the trip than he
co ul d take.
Alamos sits in the middl e of what
is ca ll ed a Tropical Deciduous Fores t ,
that is a tropical forest that annu all y
looses its leaves. Th e dry seaso n here
is winter, so the dominant spec ies in
the forest is without leaves right now.
This is useful in our studies b ecause
without the leaves you can actually
move through the foresr and you can
also see through the fo rest, whi c h
is rich with an asto undin gly diver se
population of birds and plants.
Alamos, once a rich silver-mining
c ity and the colon ial capital of Sonora,
is now a quiet ru ral town of 10,000.
Last night was Carnival, far from the
drunken debauchery of Rio de Janeiro
or Buenos Aires, this had the charm and
warmth of a co untr y fair - only more
so. Whole famili es came, a group of
very dignified matriarchs sat wrapped
in blankets watching rheir daughters
Clfcfully but not [00 clo ely.
In rh'c plaza in fronr of the C:tthcdral.
the ),oung"r fal1lil ies and co uples citcled
the plaza and the 100-year-old bandsta nd slowly a t a distance. C loser to the
stand t he younger singl es - teenagers
mostly - moved in nervous little knots
eyeing each othe r. Thi s is 3 very o ld
co u rting tradition, EI Pasco, in w hi ch
th e young ladies wa lk a ile way and th e
boys walk th e o th er, a flower is offered
and eith er accepted or rejected and the
two walk together - and the mothers
keep an eye on tbe two. There was also
a cosr um e contest for the kid s, live
mu sic, street vendors and fo od . Oh,
was the re food; tacos, corn and cakes so
ri ch yo u gai n weight looking at them
roo long!
.
At all of the fairs and bean suppers
and community events I have been to,
I have never felt more community. It
is difficult to capture in words - it's an
energy in the dancing, music, conversations and, greetings. The people are
handsome and beautiful and dign ified
and thorougbly unique. It is legal, or
at least acceptab le, to walk the streets
with an open beer and yet I think I saw
twO the w hole night. I th o ught I knew
something abour rhe Mexican peopl e
from years of living in the southwest,
but I knew next to nothing.
the cooper point journal
There a re a few gringos here, semlex parr iates who wi nter here or retlfe
here or ju" try to make enough mo ney
to continue to live bere. The older
generations, the retirees, don't seem to
u nderstand or even try to understand
t hese people. Many make no attempt
to lea rn the la nguage. There a re those
who st rin g together various ski ll s to
make enou gh money to sray in Mexico.
I was told that a m ong som e of the local
people it is cons idered good fortune
or goo d business to " latch onto a n
American. " It seems to me that the
com petition fat the tourist doll a r is
much more inten se , but unspoken
among the resident gringo busine ss
community.
In the next few weeks we are going to
be visiting indigenous people, mangrove
swamps and remote villages. I already
have notebooks bulging with data to
tran scribe and more photographs than
I can afford to have developed. There is
a l iferime's worth of research to be done
h ere and I have no doubt rhat each of
us will come back to this place aga in
and again, it has a way of getting to you
if you just give it a little time.

here works their asses oW It's quite an undertaking to start
frum nothing and create a media CUller so that Evergreen
st udcnts , w~~en they graduate , don't have to leave [tow n ]
[0 ge t work.
Smi t h s,tid the goa l of the Music Video project was to
get community artists ro cross-poll inate. The Film Ranch
would pay for lh. fdm and the processing o f the videos.
The), would rene out the gear they had available. Al l the
money that would be made wo uld go back into ,he Ranch
for fUll!re projects .
Eve n though a hund red people showed up at th e initi al
meeting, only six bands and six filmmaking units got their
co ntracts together lit time. In all, three Evergreen students
jumped (hroug h the hoops.
Greta "Ruhy" Pederson, a ophomorc, submined a song
from her band Rom antic Retard Nation. Trevor Smith . a
se nior, and Jacob Shephard , a freshman , each made films.
T he pruject was "a blast ," says Jacob Shepha rd , who filmed
.,nd produced .1 video for his friends , the hand H ead less Pe7..
"Th ey' re crazy raucous," hc says. "But I knew how to handl e
them." Headless Pez is a punk band.
Pederson, singer and songwriter for Romantic Retard
Nat ion, col laborated with an Evergreen filmm aker for her
music video. She chose a so ng for the music video based on
its di stinctive fecl ing.
"It was th e most romantic. It had a so lid s(O ry line. ' I
thought I loved you until I found out you had a silicon

Is this it.
You've heard of rhese guys, right? So meone told me last week, "th ey were the bes t I've heard
in a while. " Is rhar true ? All in all, li stening to The Strokes is like being wi(h a lover that is
really pulling your strings - just mainly being indecisive. First they are walking toward you, reall y
turning YOll up and mystifying you, and then all of a sudd en you want to rhrow up li stening
to them; you a re dis!; ' sred by th e m . It goes on a nd on like thi s throug:lOut the a lbum. You
realize eventually they arc doin g the same kind of sruff the whol e way t!ltough, but each tlm c

If you li srcn to The Srrokes e nou g h, you will love (hem ancfh a te th e m both. They're
not amazing, and they are over- hyped. But th ey're good to boil you a bit.
Th roughout rhe so ngs they h ave good energy, and their s ubtle

Denise Smith , wh o co-directs the Film Ranch with TES C

ma king a film at Evergreen and makin g one in th e rea l
