"I didn 't give a shit about

died - and that 's a bad place 19
be. Climbing up is such a bitch,
it 's hard ... I always had a dream
to be a scientist. My Mom gave
me a chemistry set when I was
little and I almost blew up the
house. If it weren't for Upward
Bound, I wouldn't be at college,
I'd still be getting high ; I'd
probably never grow up. There's

TCC through the high school
completin program .
De~is Carpenter speaks enthusiastically about attending
TESC next fall. But withoul the
help of Upward Bound, he says,
he probably would have continued tu.ming to "M:n cents of canna binal" whenever things got
rough. Now Dennis is confident
that his dream of becoming a
.scientist is within his grasp, because Upward Bound TutorCounselor Bob Woolf is taking
the lime to help brush up on the
basic skills he will need in his
chosen field.
More importantly, Woolf has
helped Dennis to realiu that he

sible fantasy . And that's what
the Evergreen branch of Upward
Bound is all aboul - people reach- .
ing people.
Upward Bound Director Phil
Briscoe expresses a concern that
some people misinterpret the
function of UB . He elaborates :
"I've heard it twice now, by
people, and it came up this
summer. I get appalled in terms
of people thinking of Upward
Bound as a minority program ...
that's bullshit. We have twenty•
two Black students, seven Native
American students , and one
Chicano student. That's a sum
total of' thirty people out of
about sixty . ... "
Briscoe adds that this misconception has a harmful effect
upon the program, e-specially in
rural areas such as Oakville
where parents are still leery
about allowing their children to
join Upward Bound.
The TESC UB program works ,
with students attending North
ThuAlon H.S. , Olympia H .S .,
and The Off-Campus Sc,1,ool in
Thunton County ; Clover Park
H.S., Lincoln H .S., Mt . Tahoma
H .S. , and Henry Fos& H.S. in
Pierce County ; and Oakville
H.S. in Grays Harbor County. It
follows students as they move to
programs such as Tacoma Community College's high school
completion program.

has initiated a search for candida1es for the position of Vice
President and Provost from
which Edward Kormondy has
resigned . Kormondy's resignation
becomes effective on July 1,
1978.
1n a January 19 memorandum
addressed to the Evergreen
facuhy, Evans called for intemal
recommendations for candidates
and announced that an advertisement wa1 being plac:ed in "a
number of key recruiting sources."
In his memo, Evans pointed
out some of his concerns about
academic administration. He said,
" , . . I know that many of you
believe a sepa_rate position should
be created to deal exclusively
with the internal contact and
needs of o ur faculty . I have a
good deal of sympathy for thia
position and will continue to
carefully analyze the assignment
of responsibilities to deans,
provost, and an academic vice
president. "
Evans' memo also included a
time table for filling the position
of Vice President and Provost . It
states that applicants will be
recruited until March 8, when
Evans and a "smaJI consultative
group of eight lo ten people
(faculty, staff and student.)" will
begin reviewing the applicatlona
·-

ti--
candidates who will be invited to
be intervi~ed. The consultative
group will advile the President
on the strengths and ~
of the final candidates without
ranking or p)'ioritizing them .
Each finalist will spend at least
two full days on campus, during
which time open intervlewo will
be conducted with faculty, staff
and 1tudents, varioua groups of
Upward Bound works in cooperation with the schools their
students 8t1end . According to
Woolf, school officials have been
very helpful in making the program a success.
This may be , as Dennis
Carpenter explains, " ... because a
teacher who has 45 people in a
class can' t stop just for me." UB
tutor-counselors give studentsthe personal attention which
teachers would like to give, but
often can't .
In order to be eligible for Evergreen's Upward Bound program
an applicant must be a lowincome student with the desire to
continue his / her education beyond high school. have attended
high school for one year, have
dropped out of achoo! , or be
thinking 'about leaving school .
According to UB Educational
Coordinator Bob Woolf, high
school students join the program
for a number of reasons. Often
they need extra academic help in
orof'r to gain eventual admission
to colleges or technical schools.
Sometimes they simply need help
to graduate from high school,
and this includes emotional support.
UB students are paid $16 per
month for their involvement in
the program. Woolf says this is
to compensate them because
tutorial slots often lake up the
time during which they could be
working and earning much
more.
Students such as Ricky RichardJon, an 18 year old Senior at
Clover Park High School in
Tacoma, have joined the program because teachers, guidance
counselors, and principals have
encouraged them to do so . UB
brinp assemblies and speaken to
its various contact high schools
in Thunton, Pierce, and Grays
Harbor counties, to give prospective students a chance to 1ft
just what the program's all
about.

Eleanor l..tt and Dennis Heck are two Evergreen graduates who
are holding offices in the Washington State Legislature ,
Evergreeners often talk about the "real world", and, especially
with legislators, "us" and "them". Dennis Heck and Eleanor Lee
ha1'e chosen both roles .
·
Dennis Heck. is serving in the House of Representatives. He is a
Democrat from Southwestern Washington. The 1977 legislative
session was Heck's fint as a State Representative.
Eleanor Lee is a Republican who served in the House in 1974
and '75, and who was ~lected in 1976. Next ~ion Ltt will
assume new responsibilities in taking over the Senate seat vacated
by Jack Cunningham. Lee resides in Burien .
The following interviews with Lee and Heck mainly concern the
state of Evergreen from the viewpoints of the two legislators . The
interview with Heck was conducted over the phone and was not
taped, so some of the material is not directly quoted. Lee's
interview was taped.
Interviews on page 4
Students who join UB must
adhere to set guidelines. On the
top of the list are "no sex, no
drugs." Explains Woolf : '11 the
program is to be effective, all of
us-students and counselon have
to be responsible. We have to be
straight With that from the
start." He adds that many of the
regulations stem from UB's responsibility to parents as well as
10 TESC. Upward Bounders
must obey the law at all times ;
otherwise the reputation of their
program would be threalened.
Upward Bound is a solid form
of preventive medicine. Statistically, minority and •disadvantaged
people who hav• obtained post·
NCondary degrees have a higher
rate of employment than those
who haven't . Joel Packer (legislative Director) and Howard
McGee (Trio Desk Director of
the National Studenl Lobby )
detailed this fact in a November
1 , 1977 letter to President
Carter :

Correction
The CPJ in its February 2
article "Judge Rules No Jurisdiction" erroneously reported
thal David Columbus had filed a
separate suit against the Veteran's Administration . Mr. Columbus has taken no action against
the V.A.
administrative staff and the con,.
sultative group. These interviews
will be conducted between April
8 and 25th. Evans expects to
announce an appointment on or
aboul April 30.
The advertisement for the
opening position briefly explains,
"The position : reports to the
President; directs curriculu development lo insure quaJity of
academic programs: manages the
academic and other instructional
affairs by providing g_uldance
and leadership lo subordinates
with delegated responsibility for
delivering academic programs
and library•se.rvica to students."
The qualifications for the
position a.re listed as having "intellectual integrity, exa,llence as

and get her or his contract
organized to Iii• on Friday. And
during those two days I was
busy getting a new quarter
started and organizing a retreat .
I am writing to see if anyone
else oul there is concerned about
this . A s I told Dean Will
Humphreys in a private conversation (so far as I know there
was no public discussion of this
topic) I believe this new deadline
will (1) result in lower quality
contracts and (2) cost us
students . H you share my
concern s, please drop me a note
at L2120 or call me at 6055
afternoons.
Sincerely,

In li~ht ot my reading the

TESC I have observed many
things regarding the irony of this
To the Editor:
Last Friday night's film, THE
GREEN WALL , is a typi cal
example of EPIC's control of the
Friday Nitt Films .
Burt<;>n S. Freed
s 1tuc1tion
~ tan y times throughout his
teaching here Cruz Esquivel
requested that he be able to do
in dividual cont racts in music
co mpositi on and performance, or
possi bly even be allowed a
traction of the access to musical
facilities . In all cases, outside of
a sparse number of music
students which he nearly had to
demand to be able to work with ,
Esquivel was denied .
This I find extremely ironic, in
that l am told Esquivel 's degree
in this area is truly authentic !
This was never questioned in
my own mind , although it has
been spoken amongst the annual
music faculty that , " Esquivel
trankly has very little to offer."
Iro nica ll y enough . these were the
words of those who not once
betore my eyes have extended
themselves to the man , May I be
quoted . These people and their
attitudes towa rd Cruz Esquivel
and each ot her are a reftection of
a sad st ate of territorialism
w11h m the music faculty . Ever~reen is a school where several
\' 1v1d sty les of musical pursuit
are offe red wllh ve r y little
emphas is o n interre lation of their
differences An approach which 1
believe only serves to stagna te
and const ri ct the creative process11 Cruz Esq ui vel is a man I
!eel ha!t risen above such
rettmess to a point where he sees
Art without Ego . Trul y an
dtt1tude we could use here !! I can
.., t,He that 1n all th ree of my yea rs
hPre there were more than
l"nough students eagerly willing
t<l fill those con tra cts with
L-.qu1vel. yet 11 was not allowed .
Lastly may I pose a question
re~a rd1n g the way in which
J1scove ry of Esquivel's unprocesse d Masters Deg ree was
hand led . The Adm inistrati o n
-..t ates the decision had n o
reflec ti on upon personal feelings
regard ing Esquivel ' s ideals or
philosophy of tea ching. It occurs
to me , in light of the lack of
sup port for Esquivel and more
l"Specially the fact that no sort of
grace period was
offered
Esquivel in order to clarify his
credentials with the college in
which he pursued his Masters,
tha t instead his weakness stuck
quick ly and hardly with notice.
Truly not the po licy in which an
administration deals w ith a
wanted faculty member and
most assuredly not a gesture of
<;.upport .
Cruz Esquivel was wanted and
c;u ppo rted by stu dents and most
defina tely not by the Adminis-tration . And as long as our
1nstitull ons of learning serve the
will of thei r administrations and
nl,t the nttds of their students,
\.'Jnmen and men like Cruz
Esquive l will be ridiculed . His
resignation. I believe. m.arks the
uprooting of the o riginal mean•

ing of this school and a strong
blow against the very essence of
progressive learning.

Dangerous
Misconceptions
To the Editor :
'When you come off a reservation , how do you relate to
people who have almost totally su bjugated your people
into a defined area7'' Don Jordan
" ... They have been oppressed
and corralled into sma ll areas
of land ... " Nancy Parkes
These are two quotations from
the longer article about C ruz
Esquivel's time at Evergreen (C PJ
2-2-78) . They a re so mewhat
incidental to the article as a
who le, but they contribute to
some da ngerous misconceptions
about Native American s that
shou ld be corrected .
The first quo te has a patronizing ring to it which is unfortunate coming from another
Native American . Seventy-five
years ago it may have btt'h true
that an Indian from a reservation
was unprepared to cope with the
"outside world" of white society,
cities, colleges, etc. To imply
that this is still the case seriously
downgrades the intelligence and
sophistication of contemporary
Indian people . Life on reservations may be different , difficult
and frequently isolated, but
automobiles, towns and television sets are also facts of life.
With the exception of the very
traditional elderly, most reserva tion resident.s live essentially as
any other people in this country,
despit• th• difformces which do
exist. This is particularly true in
Western Washington where the
raervations are small, and the
p,opl• probably work, go to
school, shop and find mt•rtainment off-reservation . Memben
of th• Puyallup tribt, for instance , whose reservation is
inside the city limits of Tacoma,
may n ot llke dealing with
whites , but they surely are
competent at it by now.
There is something very special about reservations, however,
They att lNDIAN LAND. Indian
people are not trapped (or
"corralled" lib wild animals) on
reservations. They are at homt
there. Indian people have lost
more than can be accounted for,
but reservations represent the
basis of what has not been lost.
Most reservations are guaranteed
by treaty (highest law of the
land , etc .) and are tangible
evidence of the inherent sovereignty of Native nations and
governments . So far , " Indian
Country" is more than a state of
mind . It is a land base of
millio ns of beautiful, resourcerich acres. It is hard to imagine
that the Navajo feel "corralled"
on !heir 1 2 million -plu s ac re
reservation (21,838 sq . miles ), or
the Yakima o n their 783 , 632
acres . But this is just exact ly
why it is so dangerou s t o
e ncourage th e co ncept that
Native Americans are being held
cu ltural and economic prisoners
on their own reservations. There
is not a state government in the
union, nor a white land specula•
tor. nor mining company that
does not want to get their hands
on Indian land. These interests
use the misgui~ sympathies of
well-meaning white people to
pass (or simply allow to I>,
passed) congr,ssional l,gislation
which is blatantly unconstitutional, has disastrous effects on
Indian p,opl•. and v..-y ch•aply
and ttfectivdy transfen l'ftffVation land into private, white,
ownenhip.
Thia misguided concept that
rewrvations are "lrlDwlehow bad
for Indians (read : unprofitabl•
for whites) was the moving force
bthind th• 1887 Daw.. Allotm•nt Act which tt1ulted in th•
loss of 90 million acrn of Indian
land (about 64'!1, at that tim•) . It
was bthind th• 1953 Tennlnation
Act (H . R. 108 •ntaillng
•v..-ything that th• titl• impli..)
which •llminated the Klamath
and Menominee reservations ,
and innumerable smaller com•
munities and tribes in California,
Oregon and other states. Fur-
thermore, it has become an issue
again RIGHT NOW with a rash
of '"anti-Indian" biUs being introduced in Congress this year. The
worst of th... is H .R. 9054,
introduced by Washington R..
publican, Jack Cunningham. Th•
intent of this bill is to "give
Indians equal opportunity" and
the method is to abrogate all
treaties between Indian tribes
and the U.S. government. Needless to say, this "opportunity" is
horrifying to Indian p,ople all
across the country.
For those people who are
really concerned about the needs
of Native Americans , plean
remember that your government
is more responsive to its majority voters than to Native voices.
This is especially important in
the state of Washington, because
most members of the Washington congressional delegation (including Don Bonker) are supporting the Cunningham bill,
and additional bills eliminating
water rights, fishing and hunting
rights and other things that have
bttn introduced by Cunningham
and Lloyd Mttds. There are also
powerful lobby groups organized
from this state who wish to see
these bills passed. Here are two
sources for more comprehensive
information : Richard LaCourse.

To the Editor:
Sometrung happened the other
night. Something that I still can't
believe. You see, I was visiting a
friend in the dorms when we
heard some noise in the kitchen .
We were supposedly alone, yet
the kitc):\en was making noises.
Well, we went to check it out
only to find two bodies fleeing
out the door . towards the
elevator. We were able to snag
the suspects, and the ensuing
half hour or so was filled with
some not-so-gleeful conversation.
Intense interrogation revealed
the fact that they w•ne high
school students out looking for a
good time at TESC. Okl W•U .. .
no . Not so ok. You see, we
found that they had stolon som•
food from my friend's refrigerator. When asked about this, they
assured us that no harm was
meant. 'We weren't looking to
st•al food . W• w•tt looking for
money . . . . I mean a party. "
Oh, I see. I gu... the word has
gotten out that we "Greenen"
party in our rdrigeraton. No
harm. Uh-huh.
There are several issues at
hand h.•tt. First off, high school
students have no more buslness
being in the dorms on a
Saturday night than a glob of
grape jelly has being on a
T-bone steak on any night. But
they do come out here. This isn't
the fin1t inddmt involving high

Overturn The
Bakke Decision
To th• Editor :
A comlttee -to • overturn th•
.Bakke Decision ii now being
formed on the Evergreen Campus. Allon Bakh, a 34 year old
white engineer, wat refused
admission to medical school at
UC Davis in 1974. H• claimed he
had bttn • victim of "rev,,..
discrimination" because of the
university's affirmative action
policy of ,...rving sixteen out of
a hundred openings for "disadvantaged" students, •lots that
had bttn filled each year by
minority applicants . T e Supreme Court is currently deliber•
afing the tease. If they supJ)Ort
his contention, affirmative action
programs across the nation will
I>, meaningless, and th• gains
·made so far by ethnic minorities
and women will be undermined.
National action is scheduled
during April of this year, th•
time when the Supreme Court is
exp«ted to make the decision .
The Evergreen Committee to
Overturn the Bakke Decision
will plan and coordinat• local
action. This is an issue with far
reaching implications. All interested persons are urged to attend
the fi.nt meeting at noon on

Under the music section of the
Arts and Events page, I nead that
'Gila' was playing in the Ubrary
lobby and it also said "This is a
womm p~rred event. Them's
the bttaka, mm." I feel that this
statement was quite unnecessary
and very discriminatory . It
seems that radical feminists have
shifted their ideology from equal
rights for all to separatism.
Sometimes I wonder if this is
what is holding bade the passing
of the ERA bill. It's funny how
our soci•ty has caused a split in
the 'sexes' and now fmunists

TESC Alumni Legislators Interviewed
SENATOR ELEANOR LEE
REPRESENTATIVE
DENNIS HECK
CPJ : When did you graduate
lrom Evergreen and what did
vou study while you were here?
Heck : I slarted at Evergreen in
71.
when
it
opened . Ed
Kormondy was my first coordinated studies faculty sponsor. I
graduated in December, '73 . I
stu died mostly political science
and so me environmental science.
C PJ : Was y o ur Evergreen
degrtt a plus or minus in your
get ting elected?
Heck : It was really a plus, I
learned twice as much as I would
have at anot her school. I was
elected in '76 after having just
tu rned 24 . I wouldn 't have been
prepared to run at that age
wit ho ut the experiences I had at
Evergreen . (He interned for
Thurs ton Cou nt y Commissio ner
George Barner, also an Evergreen graduate , during Bamer's
political ca mpaign . Heck also
in terned with the Department of
Game .)
CPJ : Do you ofte n hear misco nceptions or misunderstandings about Evergreen voiced at
the legislature1
Heck : Yes. In a wide sense, on
the school's methodology ; in a
narrower sense, it's not appreciated how much work Evergreen
run not ever / the ghost of Jim
Kuenhely lives on
forever .
Bond's amendment was voted
down by a stron.g majority .
CPJ : Do you often find
yourself defending the college)
Heck : If I tried to defend it
every time, I'd spend all my time
defending Evergreen . But when
necessary. like on the House
floor, I do.
CPJ: Do you see a real threat
to the college coming from the
legislature1
Heck: I think that the threat
to do away with it as a state
college will continue . When I tell
fellow Evergreeners that, the
response is shock and it 's
incredible to them . That is a
serious mistake because it is real
and they' re not dealing with it.
CPJ : How can one deal with
it1
Heck : One way to deal with
this is to be viable. Evergrttn
has to increase enrollment to
meet its Full Time Equivalency
(students) Contract . And Evergreen should take more seriously
its mission to serve Southwest
Washington .
CPJ: Do you have any specific
suggestions1
Heck: I'm closest to Evergreen ' s Van co uver program .
There is a limit to the number of
students in that program and
"I think that the threat to do
away with it as a state college
will continue. When I tell fellow
Evergreeners that, the response is
shock and it's incredible to
them."
students do . People think it's
easier than o ther colleges.
CPJ : Did the Council on
Postsecondary Education's study
of Everireen come as a surprise
to yo u in the last session ' s
budget ; do you feel that it was
an attempt to traditionalize the
school7
Heck: I am aware of the study
and have been following it
(attempts to traditionalize and /
or abolish the college) all the
time. Similar amendments were
offe red on the House floor . (The
C P . E. study came from the
Senate) . One amendment sponsored by Dick Bond (R. Spokane) would have deleted the
enti re appropriation for the
school. For about the last five
years James Kuenhely , who is
now retired from the legislature.
would come in with something
agai nst Evergrttn, and Barney
Go ltz (Senator) started a tradition of rHponding with a poem.
So, my poem, whtn Dick Bond's
amendment c.tme up was : Politici ans co me , and politicians
go / Politicians may not run again
you kn ow / But run again and
there should be no limit.
CPJ: Is it fuUl
Heck : Yes , and they're doing
an excellent job .
CPJ: What else can Evergreeners do to improve public
relations7
Heck: More traditional means
of communicating politically . It
doesn't hurt for students and
parents to communicate in a
positive way .
Evergreeners
should avoid extreme negative
dem o nstrations . They are n o t
constructive. Students as a wh ole
should realize that they have to
work within the system in order
for the school to survive . If they
want to change the system, they
should do it later, after they're
out of school .
CPJ : How has Dan Evans
done so far, regarding communications with leg:islators7
Heck : I had lunch once with
Dan Evans and he is not a very
good listener, frankly . He ' d
better convert the P .R. rhetork
to data on enrollment . Evergrttn
has a n,ally fin• lobbyilt (LH
Eldridgt) who i• doing an
excellent job of communicating.
CPJ: When did you graduate,
and what did you study at
Evergreen1
Lee : I graduated in '73.
started when it opened in '71 and
transferred credits that I had at
WSU and the University of
Washington. I studied political
science, and the first contract
was with Peter Robinson , a
British citizen . That first contract
that I did was on local
government , and one of the
things I did was set up an
observer core and write a
column for the local paper, The
Highline Times (Burien). And we
ca lled the co lumn " Curious
Constituent", and we covered
the governmental units that are
seldom ever reported: fire districts, water districts. Then I
worked with Nancy Taylor ...
One (contract ) was with group
dynamics and the other was with
effective lobbying in the Washington State Legislature ... I
up a paper about how they felt
that the material in the library
was subversive material. And
that WilS proven as being false .
That same paper was circulated
again last year because you see
there have been a lot of new
legislators . Almost half the
Legislature had changed in that
period of time. That again had
to be denied.
CPJ : Who brought that paper
out again?
Lee : It was Senator Pullen this
last time. That's what is visible
resistance to Evergreen . There is
some other kind of resistance
that is visible only to the
legislators themselves and not to
the public. And that comes from
legislators who are very closely
connected with the other state
colleges and universities. They
will talk to other legislators in
private, in their lunchrooms, at
dinner, so on and so forth , and
quote facts which they consider
damaging to Everg:rttn such as,
"It's only rich people who an,
the universities at the same
time ... There are some problems
in the other universities that very
desperately ' need attention, and
those universities would appreciate having some data to support
their requests for some of the
things they need.. Our ' universities are going to po t (jokingly) .
CPJ : With the money problems7
Lee : Yeah, Evergreen's not the
only one that's having some
concerns... There was a study
for CPE that would hav• made a
recommendation to reapportion
some of the graduate programs.
And WSU and UW both would
have lost graduate programs that
they now have ... Some of their
most important programs.
CPJ: How do you rate the job
the college (Evergreen) is doing
regarding communication with
the legislature?
Lee: Well, I think that the
person on the administrative
staff of the college does an
excellent job, Les Eldridge. (He)
"There is some other kind of
resistance that is visible only to
the legislators themselves and
not to the public."
o rganized and managed what
was called Citizens Headquarters,
Olympia,
Washington
(C HOW) ... Then my se nior
thesis was on lobbying... and we
did a complete survey of the
strengths of the various lobbying
groups at that time . What
became the public disclosure
law, Initiative 276 ; signatures
were being gathered and I
worked on that campaign ...
CPJ: When you were first
getting elected, was your Evergreen degree a plus or a minus in
that aspect?
Lee : It's a plus in the aspect
that you have a coll~ degree.
The fact that it was from Evergreen, I don't think it was any
detriment, it was always a bit of
a curiosity .
trying to get rid of their kids
from out of state," and, "It's not
really serving Southwest Washington," and "We' re going to
have to close one of the colJeges
anyway because of declining
enrollment. " Those particular
individuals never make those
comments in public. .. none of
them are statements that they
can really back up . If they
could, they would makt them
publicly . They just assume that
people aren ' t going to check
them out : they're sowing seeds
of suspicion is what it · amounts
to.
CPJ : Do you see a n,al threat
to the college coming up from
under~nrollment now1
Lee: Yes, I really do.
CPJ : It's usually voted down
by ...
Lee: Fairly overwhelmingly.
Usually been not more than a
dozen people (voting to remove
Evergreen' s allotment) in the
Houae of Representatives. I don't
know what the Senate counts
have bttn.
CPJ: A threat of closuttl
lee : Yes, because in 1979
there are going to be extreme
budget pressures because of th•
removal of sales tax on food. If
you look at the budget that was
pasoed last ytar, coUeges, all of
higher education , received a
smaller increase in budget than
would be justified, even by inflation ... All of higher education
is lteling a pinch. . . WSU and
WtStem both an, losing somt of
their very best teachers... because they just cannot make a
dKent living. They're not being
well enough paid for the kind of
job they'n, doing... Btcause of
that double squeeze from the
budgtt dollar as a wholt, st.Ile
revenue as a whole, plus the fact
that the colleges and universities
have been taking it on the chin
even prior to this, is going to, I
think, see a renewed effort to try
to close Evergreen. And probably tum it · into a state office
building, which is something that
has bttn on th• drawing board.
There's been a need for a state
office building where probably
administrative officn would be
housed, lik• th• Governor and
th• Sectttary of Stat• and ,o on.
CPJ: An, there any other misconceptions about the way the
college runs or the people that
go to Khool thmel
Lee : Ont of th• things that
was done the fint year that
Evergreen was in ex.istenc-e was,
someone had gone in and written
CPJ : Did th• C.P.E. study on
Evergreen come ill a surprise to
you in last ytars budgetl
la: ... The way it's worded, it
isn ' t anything that we could
n,ally object to. The on• thing I
objected to is that they weren't
doing a comparablt study of all
CPJ: Working at the Capitol,
do you run into misconceptions
about Evergreen?
Lee: Yes. There are a lot ...
some of them are nurtul"Ni by
people who th;nk of Evergnen
as a threat of some kind or
other . Either as a threat to
existing institutions or to their
concept of what a college
education should be.
CPJ : Whtn, does this come
from?
Lee : It tends to be a few people who an, actually adammt
about it. .. Each time (session)
there has been an amendment to
remove the financing from TESC
from the budgd and that ,
therefon,, is kind of a gauge as
to the number of legislators who
really Itel that strongly about it.
does an outstanding job. The
other question as to how well
the students do as far as communicatlllg with their own legis-lators, and their parents· and
business people within the community who understand Ever:.
green, how good a job thty do ,
probably could be improved
upon considerably ... For example, every single student should•
know who their legislators are.
They should visit th•m penonally so that they become acquaint•
ed with them. They should have
to use a certain amount of
discretion lJl doing so because
not all students hit it off well
with legislators. It doesn' t matter
which school they'"' going to ...
H students, for example, who are
in the same legislative district
could get together and say o .k .,
you're a good spokesperson, I
would like you to make a
personal visit with your legisla•
tor, this year, while they're at
home and talk to them about
Evergreen ... During the summer.
I think it would be a gttat deal
of htlp because thm Everw,,en
has become something that is
made up of people, not just a
brick building. Thtn,'s nothing
more effective than fa~to-face
communications . If students
from each lesjslative district
could do that, and they could
gather the kind of information
they need to have, for example,
the communications studjes that
are now being provided at
Evergreen ... they are now placing their students at a higher rate
than WSU ... on• of the top
communic.ttions schools in the
nation.
CPJ : Are there any other
things that students could do to
improve the situation 7
Lee: Alums need to do
something to work on the
situation ...
CPJ : Have you noticed any
differences in communications
with th• school sina, Evans NS

I.ft: Wt havtn't actually had
a legislative session since Evans
has taken over as praident, so l
Nvt no way of judging that.
Th• other thing is that una, I'm
already a supporter of Evergreen, I'm not on the list for
attention.

CHAPTER I
great crowd had gather-
ed to hear the Word
that morning. For food
they did not want, for theirs was
a time of prosperity. For shelter
and clothing they did not want,
for so abundant was the land
they tilled that all these things
were provided them . Yet still
they had come together that day
for want , and for want they had
assembled by the thousands to
hear the Word.
The pastor came to the pulpit.
And the pastor said , "I found
our speak.er this morning very
warm, and lovely . I believe I
would like to introduce her this
morning as the daughter of the
King, more than the sister of the
President, as she is the daughter
of the King. She loves Jesus with
all her heart ."
Now there was a man named
John, sent from the Cooper
Point Joumal . He came to bear
witness to testify regarding Ruth
Carter Stapleton, so that everyone might hear her teaching.
These things took plaa, at Th•
Evergreef\ Christian Center, beyond the Westside Center, in the
land of Olympia.
The next minute John saw
Ruth Carter St.ipleton approaching the pulpit. Sh• stood at th•
pulpit and said, " .. .It's amazing
how when you stand up here,
and you get to look at the faces
and ftel all that love Rowing to
you , it just gives you that extra
added strength. So keep loving
me, and keep praying for me,
and ktep sending all that
strength to me this morning."
Thtn she looked out at the
faa,s btfon, her and told thtm,
" Jesus says. "When someone
steals from you, don't demand it
back. Whyl Because if somebody steals from you there's a
littl• bit of thief insidt you. It's a
good ltS,on. You know th.., are
hard ltssons . This is why I
thought it (th• Bible) was an
obst.icle count. This is not the
way of the world; this is th•
way of th• Kingdom. And this is
why we're not moving into ~a
real sense of lrttdom, is becall!e
we'n, stiU holding on and, Tm
gonna' do it this way,' and 1'm
gonna' call a lawyer,' and,
'Curse you . I'm gonna ' get
even .'"
And John testified that the
Olympian, liktd what thty
heard, evtryon• but th• lawyers.

CHAPTERII
uth Carter Stapleton
continued to tell of her
friend , a woman in
Ohio. Her friend loved pretty
clotht'\ and good makeup, and
ktpt her hair fixed and dyed and
had wigs. But all of a sudden she
realized that that was just
wasting her time. So she said,
'Well, I love th• Lord and I love
all these things but I don' t know
how to get around it." And Ruth
Carter Stapleton said, "You've
been given this situation. You
just deal with it ."
Wtll the next thing somebody
knocked on her door. It was
cold . An old woman stood
outside the door in rags and
said , " lady , I' m freezin' to
dtath. I don't havt anything to
eat and I don't have a coat . Do
you have an old coat you could
give me?" And Ruth ' s friend
began to thank God because she
Nd just made a decision to get
over her materialistic attitudes.
She had just bought a new coat,
and she had this boautiful old
coat : she was going to use it for
everyday and use the new coat
for Sunday, but she 5ala, 'Thi,
is God glving me a chance to
really get over this hang-up." So
sh• said, "Oh, ytS, come in. I'll
fix you something nice and
warm to eat, and I've got a
beautiful coat to give you."
She got th• lady settled down
with something to eat. Then she
went to get a coat and she
n,ached into the closet for her
old coat, and that Spirit in her
said, "Oh, no Geraldine. Not the
I't's a si.e.-1' c.,alllll. ·- -

old coat."
And she said, "Oh, no Lord .
Let's don't heal it all at once."
But then there was a pain
inside her lik e she couldn' t
believe; it just went all the way
through her. It ws emotional,
and it was physical, and it was
spiritual. And finally ... she made
her hand go up and she made it
pull that new coat off the
hanger. Then she went back to
the old woman and she was
hurting, and she wanted to cry,
and she reached out and gave it
to that woman. When she saw
her eyes, all of a sudden there
was nothing but a flow of peace.
And the Olympians were
moved and fulfilled by this
pllrable, for though many of
them wore new coats they had
given freely of themselves. Their
giving had built the finest church
in all Olympia, and through this
giving they had come to experience the blessings of their
President Jimmy's sister.
CHAPTER III
ollowing
this
Ruth
Carter Stapleton began
another parable.
"I
think one of the most beautiful
lessons that I ever learned," she
said, " was from a gorgeous,
sophisticated, beautiful brunette
young woman who was a dress
designer in New York City. She
kept opening dress shops and her
employees - she ktpt having
trouble with them . Having to go
into bankruptcy . She had had a
F
series of five different businesses,
and because of theft in the businesses, because of poor man•
agement of the people whom she
employed, she couldn't make a
go of it. But she was really
gifted .
"So she came to one of my
retreats. She was really searching. But she couldn' t stand me .
She wasn 't Christian . she could't
stand anything I said. She never
read the Bible. She didn 't like the
idea.. ,of reading the Bible. She
was just - beautiful. and sophisticated, and materialistic. Well
when she left at the end of the
retreat she hadn ' t
accepted
Christ, none of the beautiful
things I'd love to share. But
anyway , she got ready to go and
she said, Tm not going back to
New York . I'm going to take a
year off, and I'm going to try to
find myself.' And I said, Well ,
let me tell you what to do .' I
said, When you have a problem,
promise me one thing : that you
won't call somebody like me , or
you won't call a friend . When
you've got a problem, promise
me that you'll open your
Bible!'"
The dress designer from New
York City agreed reluctantly ,
and upon this she went back to
the small village of her youth .
Later on she called Ruth Carter
Stapleton to tell her a story and
to thank her. "Ruth , after I got
home ," she said, "I was at work
on my books and my businesses
- I've got a lot of property in
this state - and as I was going
through everything, as I was
working in my office, there were
three little children playing in the
house. I went to the kitchen to
get something, and when I came
back my pencil sharpener was
gone. One of those dollar•ninety·
eight pencil sharpeners , you
know ." And - she said, " I knew
exactly who had gotten it. and I
went out and I went down the
neighborhood . I tried to find
those three kids and I couldn 't
find them . It really just made me
so mad . And I kept saying, 'I
should n't be angry over a dollar
ninety-five cents,' bu t it was the
princip le of the thing."
So that night she went home
and she couldn 't get lo sleep, she
was so angry . And she picked up
h er Bible and read, '" When
someone steal s from yo u, don't
demand it back .''
"I just co uldn't believe it ," she
said. " I to ld myself. 'I can 't let
them have my pencil sharpener.
l mean there's no justice in that '
But then I said, "All ri ght Lord.
I'll tell you what I'll do. I'll give
you the pencil sha rpener , and if
you want to let them have it
o. k.' So I go t peace. I went to
sleep and about noontime the
next day a knock came on the
door and two little boys just
stood there, and they said, 'Miss
Kelle y, we found thi s pencil
sharpener ,' and they gave it back
to me.''
The nexl day , she wa s
working at her books again , and
she came across a deficit. So she
started checking in to it. and she
found o ut that someone had
stolen all the timber off of a
piece of her property . The y
found the man and put him in
jail, and they were going to
bring him up for trial. But she
remembered he had ten children,
and that he was an alcoholic.
She started thinking about the
pencil sharpener. And she said,
"Lord, it's one thing for a do llar
ninety-eight cents but this is a
whole farm full o f timber ." But
she was able to go down to that
jail, and call that man before
her , and she looked at him
straight in the eye and said,
"Mac, Jesus has a gift for you .
He wants yo u to have all that
timber that yo\J took off my
property and he doesn 't want
you to feel guilty . It's a gift fr om
him to you . And he wants you
out of jail and he wants you to
go back into your home and
make a living for your Jamily .''
And this was a parable that
put the Olympians o n trial. They
marvelled at the virtue of the
woman from New York , but
more than one amongst them
wondered if they cou ld bear such
tribulation , for their timber was
a thing they held dear to their
hea rts.

gu it ar a nd pia no st yles. Starting
\,·1th For the Roses in 1972, and
~ 1 ,·er the next three records , she
began an invo lvement with Tom
Sc0tt an d th e L.A . Express and
her music began to take on a
band sound ... The arrangements
depa rt ed fr om her earlier style,
1na,rporating jazz and rock intluences, and Mitchell started to
adopt a more full-bodied, expressive approach to singing, for
t>J1.a mple : bend ing her notes at
the end of a phrase or wo rd . The
sCtund wa s tasteful , even exciting. but al so commercially slick
,rnd seamlr ssl y perfect. Some
th0ught Mi tchell was beginning
tl' compro mise her music by
pl aying with "a bunch of L.A .
1azz hacks ."
The relea se of Hefira in 1976
introduced a new set o f problems The album was musically
'i mp ressive. Mitchell was now
playi ng electric guitar (completely dro ppin g the piano ) and had
chosen jazz bassist Jaco Pastorius
and guitarist Larry Carlton to
accompany her on most of the
cuts . The music was dense ; the
songs seeming to lack any
memorable tunes ; the lyrics
centered around a complex
personal imagery of travel and
flight. It requires work to
separate and absorb each song,
an effort I'm afraid the average
record buyer isn't comfortable
with .
That brings us to Don Juan's
Recklas Daughter. which may
be Joni Mitchell's most ambitious
effort to date . As do most
double albums. it contains its
share of filler, like the extended
instrumental passages of "Paprika Plains" and an unnecessary
studio recording of "Jericho" (I
prefer the simplicity of the original arrangement on Mila of
AislH I.
The album resists adopting
an y central concept like the
social commentary of The HIMing
of Summer Lawns, or " The
Road" in Hejira. Mitchell's forte
has always been the strength of
her lyrics. She is perhaps unparalleled in her ability as a song
writer to observe the complexities of social interaction and ro-
mance. Her insight and awareness of the contradictions embodied in her lifestyle create an
exciting tension in the best of her
work. Nowhere is this more evident than in the title cut, "Don
Juan's Reckless Daughter. Her
centraJ metaphor equates 'The
Eagle" with the clarity of her upbringing in rural Canada and
'The Snake" with the car.al desires and decadence of her city
lifestyle. Her contrast of the two
images is remarkable :
I come from open prairie
Given some wisdom and a lot
of jive!
last night the ghost of my old
ideals
Reran on channel five
And it howled so spooky for
its eagle soul
I nearly broke down and cried
But the split tongued spirit just
laughed at me
He said, ''Your serpent cannot
be denied ."
Our serpents love the whiskey
bars
They love the romance of the
crime
Peace, Bread, & Land
We are ail hopelessly
oppressed cowards
Of some duality
Of restless multiplicity
Restless for streets and
honkey tonks
Restless for home .and routine
Restless for country-safetyand her
The ruson I quote at such
length from &eetions of the song
i., to partially illustrate her impressive command of language
and imagery. Mitchell has a
knack for including little shocb
and creative twists in her lyrics
like "I didn't know I drank such
a lot / 'Till I pissed a tequilaanaconda / The full length of the
parking lotl"
She also has d~eloped stttngth
as a social observer. Her descrip-tion of a woman's washroom in
a disco is sweltering and repugnant:
In the washroom , women
tracked th, rain
Up to the mak.e--up mirror
liquid soap and grass
And Jungle Gardenia crash
On Pine-Sol and ~r ...

English ballad finger-picking style
of 'The Silky Veils of Ardor'' to
the full orchestral arrangement
of "Paprika Plains." Jaco Pastorius' fluid bass playing is perfect
for Mitchell 's slightly choppy
rhythms.
She takes risks on two of the
album 's cuts and gels decidedly
mixed results . The aforemen tioned "Paprika Plains," clocking
in at 16 :19, attempts to link
childhood memories of Indians
~nd the cl.ashing of cultures and
times with a rainstorm and activity inside a disco . Unfortunately. the epic sweep of the lyrics is
not matched by the embarrassingly dull instrumental center of
the song. Mitchell's plodding
piano backed by Michael Gibb's
orchestra sounds like a clumsy
recreation of Dvorak' s " New
World" Symphony . Only it's

I don't have any problems with
that. I think my first statement
about a minority program, if
that's the focus-I think it's an
erroneous focus and a poor mir
conception from my point of
view. And again , I guess personally at times I think it is a racist'
point of view .... In talking abput
recruiting students to Evergr&n,
you (TESC) are talking about
disadvantaged students, poor
students . People in academia
always frighten me because they
have these funny visions of what
people are supposed to be like,
and the issue is-to me, when 1
think of this program , can
'Evergreen adjust its format to
deal with the mental. physical,
and emotional needs of the
people we' re talking about7"
The presence of Upward
Bound on campus does benefit
TESC by affording. students here
a chance to gain v~luable work
experience in counseling and
tutoring, These jobs are not easy
ones. According to Woolf, tutorcounselors often become discouraged when they can't see
any immediate effects of their
involvement. As well , it is easy
for counselors to become emotinally involved with the problems oi UB students.
Woolf says Upward Bound
makes a strong attempt to match
students to counselors of similar
C\lltural backgrounds, but this is
not alway, possible. In fact, he
has recently made an effort to
involve .UB students in the hiring
proass.
'1'm learning how to conduct
a student body meeting; everybody has a hand in it," com-
ments Sid Murphy, a UB student
from Henry Foss High School.
• 'Training for coOnselors -incl udes four or five two- hour
sessio!ls acquainting tutors with
who UB students are, what their
needs are, and what the philosophy of the program is in terms
of what we're trying to do," says
Woolf . These sessions deal with
effective counseling techniques
and ways of maki11g use of
available resources , such as oncampus faculty members. The
training doesn't stop here, however. Every two weeks Directo r
Briscoe and Educational Coordinator Woolf hold staff meetings
to discuss accomplishments and
problems, and to share insights.
A rape wa s committed near
the campus moto rpool on Drift wood Road around 6 :00 p.m . on
February 3 . An attempted rape
on or near Kaiser Road was also
reported to the police on January
29. Both of the women involved
are Evergreen students.
The student who was raped
was jogging along the road when
she noticed a man foll owing her.
After attempts to shake him by
speeding up failed , she went into
the woods to hide, where he
caught up with her. Mac Smith
from Security says that the
Thurston County P o lice are
working on the case and that
they are doing a good job and
might solve it.
The people at Campus Security want women to be aware of
potential danger, and they have
some preventative suggestiont:
