Tableau of the new
It was a chilly evening outside the Seminar
Building when new students Onika Gilliam
Costas Delyanis and Tammy Rae Garland met
for an orientation improv in the photo at left
shortly after their arrival on campus Fall
Quarter. At right, Gilliam (in her Bookstore buyof-the-week sweatshirt) and Delyanis (in casual
wear he described as uniquely his own) concentrate on the here-and-now of Evergreen education
by engaging in a classic pre-seminar warm-up
exercise. Meanwhile at left, shielded from the
Northwest cold by her Geo-leathers, Garland contemplates a misty future that holds her eventual
graduation with the class of '92.

Fall Enrollment Adds Up
You name the type of threads and Greeners not
only try out all kinds of styles, but push them to
new levels of expression.
Greener-watchers have more to view this fall as
3,250 students have set a new enrollment level.
Those 3,250 individuals make up a total of 3,210
FTE (full-time equivalency). The fact that there's
only a 40-student difference between these two
figures means a greater percentage of Greeners
are full-time students. Last year the differential
between total students (head count) and FTE was
100, the year before it was 147—219 the year
before. "Eighty-nine percent of our student body
is attending full-time" says Steve Hunter '79,
director of institutional research. "That figure
represents a healthy trend for the college."
Another healthy indicator is the record number
of students of color (353) who enrolled at
Evergreen this fall. That figure represents a 25
percent jump from last year, and a 45 percent increase over the last 10 years. "This year's percentage of students of color matches our all-time
high of 11 percent," says Hunter. "We see this
increase as another positive step toward a
multicultural campus."
Other fall figures: students under 22 years of
age—51 percent, over 30—30 percent; 1331 new
students; graduate students—160; 2,792 Washington residents, 458 nonresidents; average credit
load—14.6, and finally, campus clock towers—one.

Booting and Building

"Indeed, Greeners were more
fervent in praising their education
than students at any other institution profiled in this book."
So writes Martin Nemko in his newly published book, How To Get An Ivy League Education At A State University. The college, one of 115 selected for inclusion by Nemko, receives a seven-page description in his book. He also writes that Evergreen students' "contributions in class often constitute the very
substance of the inquiry, not mere footnotes to lectures."

While Geoduck booters hone their soccer skills on
the campus playfield, construction workers raise
the new Campus Recreation Center Phase II .
Building, which will include a 1400-seat gymnasium, Wellness Lab, multipurpose studios and
increased office space. The building is scheduled
for completion in June, 1989. Get your green
shoelaces ready!
Meanwhile, Evergreen's men's and women's soccer squads have been ready and willing all
season. "Resurgence" is how Women's Coach
David Brown describes his squad. He's excited
about the rebuilding process underway with a
very promising core of freshmen, including
several former all-conference and all-state high
school playera Season highlights include a 1-1
hang-tough tie with the powerhouse Huskies of
the University of Washington.
Name recognition for the booting Geoducks got
a boost this fall when the men's team was ranked
12th in the country by the NAIA. It was the first
time since the introduction of soccer in 1979 that
an Evergreen team has made it into the national
rankings. The Geoduck men got as far as the first
game of the NAIA playoffs, which they dropped
to Simon Eraser on November 5, 1-0.
Much of this year's success is attributed to a potent offense that complements the solid defense
which has been a trademark of Coach Arno
Zoske since he began coaching here six years ago.
"Before, we tried to shut people out and hope
we'd get a goal somehow," said Zoske. "This year
we've worked a lot on transition, getting from a
defensive mode to an offensive mode." And the
work has paid off. As the ReView went to press,
the Geoducks have outscored opponents 42-19
this season, while enjoying an 11-2-4 season.
The bottom line for Zoske, however, is not victories or national rankings but personal growth
and motivation. "The single most important goal
for our program is to remain focused on the individual student athlete's appreciation of good, solid
teamplay, and the development of his or her own
pursuit of excellence."

Summer School for Teachers

Ingram Honored

New Division, Old Friend.

Over 130 Washington high school and middle
school teachers received some invaluable
revitalization this summer at Evergreen. That's
where The National Faculty of Humanities, Arts
and Sciences, a non-profit organization whose purpose is to improve the quality of teaching in the
nation's classrooms, hosted its second and third
summer institutes for secondary teachers.
Faculty Member Rudy Martin, who co-directs
Evergreen's office for the Northwest Region of
the National Faculty with Karen Munro, reports
that participating teachers were enriched and exhilarated by their experiences. History and social
studies teachers professed to being "rekindled"
by lectures such as those given by Professor
Emeritus Mary Land of Washington State
University, and Evergreen Faculty Members
Stephanie Coontz and Tom Rainey, while
science and math teachers viewed Mt. St. Helens
with college professors, including Evergreen
Faculty Member Pete Sinclair.

Evergreen's first Faculty Emeritus, Wini Ingram
(left) was honored by close colleagues and former
students this fall. In this photo by Provost staff
member Sue Hirst, Faculty Member Earle
McNeil presents a plaque he made for Wini out of
exotic Brazilian and African woods. The design,
which Ingram helped design, represents a mask
and a lily. The plaque, she reports, will greet
visitors at the entrance to her garden.
The celebration was the first in a planned series
of tributes to Evergreen faculty. The Provost's
Office has also established an Emeritus Faculty
Scholarship Fund. For more details about the
scholarship, contact Evergreen's Development Office, Library 3114.

Ken Winkley,
Evergreen's first 20-year
employee, has a new
position with a new
:*,
division. Winkley was
appointed vice president
for the Division of
Finance and Administration. Winkley, who had
been associate vice
president for AdWinkley
ministrative Services
since 1985, was named to the new post this fall,
following the departure of former Vice President
of Development and Administrative Services Sue
Washburn. The college is currently seeking to fill
another new vice president position for College
Advancement, which will include the areas of
Development, Information Services and Community and Alumni Relations. See story page 10.

TP he leaves keep falling and the students keep coming. Over
1,300 new Evergreeners have pushed Fall enrollment past the
record-breaking 3,200 mark, providing plenty of business for
Evergreen's faculty and staff. Thankfully, someone foresaw the
rush and hired 17 new faculty members, 14 of whom are either
people of color or have multicultural experience, and three who
are Greener grads (see Alum News, pages six and seven).
Not only are there a lot of us, but we learned recently from
researchers from Stanford and the University of Arizona that
we're happier than most (see story at right). Speaking of happy,
Greeners are in the pink as they watch the long awaited College
Recreation Center II and Lab Annex arise. Meanwhile, Geoduck
computer heads are all aglow with their acquisition of 18 dazzlingly state-of-the-art Macintosh computers. Good news doesn't
stop at the doors, either. Out on the soccer fields, Geoduck
booters are celebrating their first-ever national ranking and
NAIA playoff competition.
Evergreen graduates are also strutting their stuff out in the
workplace as evidenced by a five percent increase in this year's
overall placement figures and schoolteachers from Spokane to
Sequim are sizzling with inspiration from two National Faculty
institutes that were held by Evergreeners on campus this
summer.
But, wait, what are those weird and wonderful sounds coming
from Red Square? Don't worry—be happy! It's the BOOM BOX
BOOGIE! Better check it out along with the other happenings
below and throughout this, the latest edition of your Evergreen
ReView.

Red Square Rocks Out
It took some last-minute scrambling and the recruitment of a couple of car stereos (with cars),
but the much-heralded Boom Box Boogie
delighted Red Square denizens at noon on Friday,
October 21. Otherwise known as "Jon Appleton's
High-Impact Workout," the event began when 15
students holding tape recorders hit "play" at the
same time. Each boom box played a different
tape, all part of the same composition recorded in
New York on the new wonder of the electronic
age, the synclavier. Meanwhile Appleton led over

50 Greeners in a lively set of exercises set to the
music.
Appleton, a Dartmouth professor, was on campus for the National Conference of the Society for
Electro-Acoustic Music in the United States
(SEAMUS). Coordinated by Evergreen Faculty
Musician Andrew Buchman '77, the three-day
conference brought together the leading lights of
the electro-acoustic music scene, not to mention a
video appearance by Mr. Fender Guitar himself,
Les Paul.

out-of-class experiences.

To Know
The Olympian reported more than 60 college
presidents and higher education experts were
asked to nominate colleges that gave students
high-quality, out-of-class experiences. The list was
narrowed to 13, with Evergreen being the only
Washington college. Researchers James Lyon,
dean of student affairs at Stanford University,
and Rosalind Andreas from the University of
Arizona visited campus last month to find out
more. They interviewed over 70 students, faculty
members, alumni and administrators about the
college's atmosphere.
"What we're really hearing," said Lyons during
his visit, "is an extraordinary commitment and
excitement about learning. "Really first-rate
places like Evergreen don't cut up students' time
into fun hours and study hours." He also cited the
faith faculty have in students that "tends to free
students from the fear of failure," collaborative
learning, and program structure. Lyons reports a
real lack of traditional collegiate partying, stating,
"... their education is permeating their lifestyle."

Okay, this photo wasn't snapped at
Seabeck, even though its subject Kate
Crowe 77, was there. Crowe is seen
here in the guise of Dr. Root (a spin-off
of cablevision's own Dr. Ruth) as she
gives a safe-sex pep talk to new
students on campus during the Orientation Week ice cream social that is
annually sponsored by the Alumni
Association. She drew on her family
background to lighten the topic's
seriousness with a heavy German
accent.

Brothers in arms: Doug Riddels '85,
Jimmy Mateson '84 and Andy Stewart '84.

Barb Felver, '88 grad and current MPA
student, strolls the grounds of
Seabeck with the Alumni Association's
student representative Jacinta McKoy.

Evergreen's Alumni Association Board
met October 1-2 at Seabeck Resort on
Hood Canal. We felt it was an especially fruitful gathering because the seeds
of our efforts were planted months
before.
In the Spring ReView, we shared our
hopes and visions for an Alumni
Association that responds to the needs
of Evergreen grads by inviting you to
answer some questions:
How can we involve more alumni in
the Association and its activities?
How do we obtain the resources we
need to survive and be healthy?
How do we become more visible—to
the public, as well as to alumni?
How can we have influence upon college issues that matter to alumni?
By asking these questions, we hoped
to inspire people to come forward, join
the Association board, and develop
answers.
Our invitation worked. The June
election for new board members
generated more interest than any other
in the Association's history. For the
first time ever, there were more people
wanting to join the board than there
were spaces. The Association found
itself with a terrific new board of
energetic, creative, and fun people.
Among those on the new board are
some old hands, who were either reelected in June or who are finishing up
a two-year term. They include Patricia
'Bliss r80, Ray Fowler '83, Elena
Guilfoil '80, Charlie Heffernann '75,
Gary Hirsch '84, Doug Riddels '85,
Val Thorson '75, Myrna Zolyomi '82,
and John Zupa '77. Two "veterans,"
Chris Nelson '79 and Margo Stewart

'80, have returned after being away
from the board for a few years. Also
joining us again this year is Student
Representative Jacinta McKoy.
New members are Casey Bakker
'77, Kate Crowe '77, John (Eppo)
Espstein '81, Barb Felver '88, Jimmy
Mateson '84, Brendan MaFarland '84,
Kitty Parker '76, Stuart Smith '83,
Giskin Southall '88, Andrew Stewart
'84 and Janine Thome '87.
Together, we represent every era in
Evergreen's history, and we bring
many "Life After Evergreen" perspectives to the board, working as freelance writers, media wizards, mushroom farmers, parents, financial planners, accountants, graduate students,
Evergreen staffers, and assorted entrepreneurs and consultants.
In all the time I've been a part of the
Association, I have never seen this
much ability, willingness to work,
humor and constructive questioning.
As our program planner, Jimmy
Mateson, mentions in his column below,
the ranks of Evergreen alumni will
swell to 10,000 this spring. This excites
me even more than working with the
wonderful people on our board
because—in your behalf and with your
help—we are all moving toward making the Alumni Association a powerful
asset to the Evergreen community.
It would be easy to go on, but my
time's up, and we'll have plenty of opportunities to talk throughout the year.
Join us as we sponsor dances, receptions, and other special events, or call
or write care of the Alumni Office at
Evergreen. We'll be keeping in touchso watch for us!

Crank It Up!
by Jimmy Mateson '84
Alumni Association Vice President
This spring Evergreen will have 10,000
graduates. Does that knock you out
like it does me? Next question: What
good does that figure do?
Individually, lots of good, thank you.
Imagine the Greeners out there innoculating communities, businesses and
organizations with pernicious substances such as "group process,"
"facilitation," and the perpetual question of "why?"
But collectively, the question turns to
"What good could our five-figure
number do?" It's one thing for us to
have an Alumni Association, and quite
another to empower that group as a

working body, to use it to its potential.
Reminds me of having a nice car that
needs gas and oil. We are the gas in
the tank—the board volunteers. But
you can't fire up the engine without
oil—it'll burn up.
Cash greases the gears. Yep, even at
Evergreen. The last time the Association asked for money it was in the form
of membership dues. That flopped—we
got only 200 members. Once we
dropped the fees, our membership
soared to its present height of 9,600.
Roughly, operating budget is $10,000
a year. For an Association of almost

10,000 people, I think it's a piddly
budget. If, however, we acknowledged
that we wanted to work collaboratively,
we could multiply the funding level,
and put ourselves to work on projects
of international scope—drawing on the
collective experience and contacts of
10,000 Greeners!
Folks on the board are working hard.
But can we work smart? For instance,
would you rather be part of serving
chicken for five days, or put that
energy into, say, an international communications conference hosted at
Evergreen? That's not to rule out
chicken, but with your participation,

we can do more globally ambitious
things as well.
I'd like to ask you for some oil for
this engine. Just as important would be
gas—and don't forget we need maps,
too. What are the things you'd like to
see the Alumni Association do? Directions we should take? What things can
you help facilitate? We'll be continuing
this discussion on these pages, but it
won't be a dialogue until you join in.
Jump in the car along with myself and
the AA board, and let's go for it.
Whether this metaphorical beast is a
Ferrari or a Volkswagen bug, the time's
right to crank it up!

Levy

Play Mestizaje For Me
Who says you can't get warm with a
radio? Only those who haven't heard
Lisa Levy's show on KAOS 89.3. Her
personable voice, full of Latino rhythm,
is as warm as a Spanish drink on a cold
night. It's a voice that makes you stop
and look at the radio: professional but
friendly, as if she's talking just to you,
sharing her excitement about Latino
music and culture.
Levy '86 is much more than a disc
jockey, however. A native of Quito,
Ecuador, she earned her wings seven
years ago on the airwaves of Evergreen's community radio station, KAOS
89.3-FM. Since then, she's evolved into
a consummate commentator on Latin
American music and news, and a
relentless believer in the entertainment and educational value of intercultural programming.
"Unlike the colonizers of the United
States, the Spanish conquered Central
and South America while mixing freely
with the indigenous peoples," says
Levy. "Latin America underwent

mestizaje, a process of combining
peoples, styles and personalities. Its
music also underwent mestizaje. Today,
you can hear the general history of the
whole continent in the music."
"Mestizaje" (pronounced mess-teezah-hay) is just what Levy delivers to
listeners over three Northwest FM
stations:
>• She continues to play the best of
Latin American folk music on KAOS
Wednesday evenings, 7-9 p.m.
>• Three years ago, she began driving
to KBCS 91.3 at Bellevue Community
College on Monday nights to do "The
Voice and Expression of Latin
America," a 9-10:30 p.m. variety of
music, live interviews, literary readings
and guest announcers.
>• In September, Levy added a new
skill to her repertoire when she took
over a mixed-format program at NPR
affiliate KUOW 94.4. Aired from 67:30 p.m. on Sundays, the show
features music and an hour of news
Levy distills from Latino satellite
sources.

Each of these shows is a bilingual
tour-de-force, for Levy translates many
of the songs into English for her audiences. Levy's listeners, many of whom
are frequest callers, clamor to hear a
wide range of Latin American songs
and performers from the indigenous
rhythms of groups like Quilapayun to
the studio perfection of artists such as
Ruben Blades.
"Latin American music is full of contrasts at every step—the rhythm, beat,
lyrics, instruments," she says. "Variety
is the name of the game. Even within
the same country, song expression
varies drastically between the highlands or the lowlands, the city or the
country, from the north of the continent or from the south, from this century or the last. Political borders have
little to do with the way the music
sounds.
"You could say that what I do is give
listeners information through interdisciplinary media," Levy says. "I play
a huge range of Latino music, but I put
each piece in its historical, geographical, anthropological and ethnic context. I want to give my audience a
global perspective."
In order to do so, Levy has branched
out as a media producer, grants writer
and curriculum developer in recent
years. Currently, she's working on
"Mirrored Images," a multi-media project which covers the relationship
between the music and history of her
native continent. Like the Latin
American music and history that is its
subject, "Mirrored Images" is all over
the map in the possible forms it could
take:
*-An educational video series for use in
middle schools across the country
»-A four-part radio series for public
and community radio stations
*• A television program that, if funded,
would air on public television and provide the basis for the educational
videos
>-A summer institute for middle and
high school teachers at Evergreen
which would focus on the cultural
history of Latin America
+• A college course for television
"Today's Latin American folk music
is a mixture of indigenous American,
Spanish and African derivations—all
components of the historical process,"
says Levy. "What makes music a good
tool to understand Latin America is
that the concrete details of history are
right there coming out of the speakers.
The music makes it so much fun to
learn."
And fun to play and listen. Next time
you're listening to one of Lisa's weekly
broadcasts, just give her a call and say,
"Play mestizaje for me."

Pointing out that his name rhymes
with braining, and describing his cartoons as "caustic," his alma mater as
"progressive," and the artist himself as
"the kind, of guy who reads the fine
print and is not afraid of confrontations," the September 22 Rolling Stone
profiled Matt Groening '77. Aftergraduation, Groening moved to Los
Angeles and experienced the entrylevel miasma which still provides grist
for his now-famous cartoon strip, "Life
in Hell." Said strip debuted in The L.A.
Reader in 1978 and is presently syndicated in more than 70 publications.
Along with his wife, Deborah Caplan
(they were married in 1985), Groening
is now the driving force of Life in Hell,
Inc., creating "calendars, greeting
cards, T-shirts and coffee mugs," and,
beginning last year, a regular animation spot on Fox television's Tracey

Hurlburt

Hurlburt Comes Full Circle
Neal Hurlburt '77 closed an academic,
as well as geographical, loop when he
came back to Evergreen this fall. By
hiring on to teach "Physical Systems,"
the college's option for advanced
physics students, he not only returned
to his alma mater, but to the very program in which he began his career as a
scholar.
Now a recognized expert in astrogeophysical research, Hurlburt had
just transferred to Evergreen in
1976—thirteen years ago this springwhen he signed up for the first-timeever offering of "Physical Systems,"
taught by Faculty Member Sig Kutter.
From that auspicious beginning,
Hurlburt went on to study indepen-

6

dently with Faculty Member Rob
Knapp, and then set his sights on a
doctorate at the University of Colorado
in Boulder. That led to a fellowship at
Cambridge University in England in
1985, and a lecture tour of western
Europe, which in turn led back to
Boulder in 1986. There he taught in
the graduate program and used the
National Science Foundation's
nationally-linked supercomputer to do
more research on the subject of his
doctoral thesis, planetary and stellar
convection, or the patterns made by
heat and cold on Earth, for instance, or
the sun.
What goes around, comes around.
Hurlburt recalls that he was admitted

to the doctoral program at Colorado
primarily on the basis of high GRE
scores—he thought. He later learned
the department had never received his
GREs, and that he, in fact, had been
admitted to the rigorous and competitive program purely on the strength of
his undergraduate records, including an
Evergreen transcript composed largely
of his self evaluations and faculty
evaluations by Kutter and Knapp.

Two for the Road—Just two of more
than 200 Images that will travel the
state with the Peoples of Washington
exhibit are these photographs of South
Aberdeen millworkers (above) and
Mexican folk dancers Kathy and Isaac
Shultz-Reyes (at right). Economic
development and the fact that Washington's peoples come from many
places can be seen in the Croatian,
East Indian, Filipino, Finnish, French,
Japanese, Norwegian and Polish faces
gathered in the Aberdeen photo, which
was taken at the Bay City Lumber Co.
around 1919 and provided for exhibition by Bronco's Liberty Tavern
Historical Museum. The Shultz-Reyes
photo, which displays just a peek of
the thrill and color Washington's
cultures can offer each other, was
taken during a 1984 performance at
Seattle Central Community College.

"Our role is not to interpret
other cultures.. .Ours is to bring
in other people who can do that,
giving form to their information.

Sid White leans his chair back against
the wall, face squinting into a perplexed smile, as he searches his mind
for the point in time when Peoples of
Washington was conceived.
"That would go back to about 1980,"
says White, leaning forward again. "I
produced this fantastic exhibit called
'Isaac Shamsud-Din: Public and Personal Work,' presenting the work of a
Black mural artist from Portland."
The word "fantastic" reveals White's
fascination with cultural diversity. For
the Evergreen founding faculty
member and director of Exhibit Touring Services, the Shamsud-Din exhibition was the first major manifestation
of an enthusiasm that haa guided his
work the past nine years, culminating
with Peoples of Washington.
Such exhibits are not created alone.
In the case of the Peoples of Washington exhibit, 21 scholars and museum
professionals, representing ethnic communities across the state, provided information and cultural insights. The
"Research and Production" teamcomprised mostly of Evergreen staff,
students and alumni—included a
research coordinator, three field
researchers, a text editor, graphic
designer, office manager and others.
Forty-two photographers and five artists are credited. And contacts were
made with scores of people who work
in the 37 libraries, newspapers,
museums and historical societies that
contributed photos, art and information. Even Michael Tesia, the proprietor of Bronco's Liberty Tavern
Historical Museum in South Aberdeen,
contributed a photograph (the same
photo across the top of this page) that
was ultimately used in the exhibit's
promotional poster.

In the trenches with her husband
was Evergreen Faculty Librarian Pat
Matheny-White, who has balanced
White's skills as grant writer, curator
and project director on three major
projects with her skills in research and
documentation. Their combined talents
culminate in the Peoples of Washington
exhibit, an artful selection and display
of myriad images integrated with factual accounts of peoples pictured. The
result is a gallery experience that
swells with life—a visible diary of
Washington people
"Our role is not to interpret other
cultures," says White. "Ours is to bring
in other people who can do that, giving
form to their information."
Each image and paragraph in Peoples
of Washington is the tip of an icebergsized chunk of work and piles of information. Not all of that information remains submerged, thanks to extensive
archiving.
However, adventures in making an
archive from "primary research" are
seldom recorded.
"Sometimes our research gets very
primary," says Matheny-White. "Once it
involved going into Alfonso Cabrera's
garage to gather documents on the
beginnings of the Chicano Studies
Department at the University of
Oregon."
After tracing the source of a
photograph through several contacts,
the trail led to the home of an 84-yearold Croatian woman, Mary Babare Love,
in Tacoma, who invited Sid Whit6 to investigate her attic for more
photographs. There he found a treasure
of images that greatly increased the
recorded history of the Croatian
peoples in this state.

Primary research is akin to
sleuthing. You find your information
through interviews with people such as
ethnic community leaders and elders,
buried in the documents of organizations, from posters on walls and in
other unusual places. This isn't
material you can find in any library, until someone like Matheny-White is done
with it. Then you can access it from
most libraries through bibliographies
or indexes, using interlibrary loan.
"I've developed a huge bibliographic
database and an extensive archive for
Peoples of Washington, primarily
visual, and mostly photographic," says
Matheny-White. "There's a lot of intere^st by teachers in the schools about
this kind of information, and for
assistance in curriculum development
using these materials."
The duo say they couldn't have
helped to create Peoples of Washington
without the experience gained working
with all kinds of people on previous
projects. But the roots of Peoples of
Washington trace directly to the Isaac
Shamsud-Din exhibit.
"Because of that project, we thought
how great it would be to write a grant
for a similar project featuring a variety
of cultures."
The result was the National Endowment for the Humanities funded
"Chicano and Latino Artists in the
Pacific Northwest" exhibit that toured
1984 through 1985. This project was
supplemented by a huge archive, an
Evergreen-produced catalog with artists' work and scholarly essays, and
two essays co-authored by White and
Matheny-White that were published in
regional and national publications.

"In 1984 we began thinking about
Peoples of Washington," says White.
In 1985 Evergreen helped get the
ball rolling by giving White and
Matheny-White a grant to help prepare
a grant proposal for full-funding.
"There was about a year of intensive
grant writing and networking on both
our parts," says White. The Evergreen
State College Foundation later gave
Matheny-White a grant to begin
developing the archive.
The combination of grant proposals
and scholarly networking won Peoples
of Washington a $70,000 grant from the
Washington Centennial Commission in
October, 1987, followed by $19,000 in
grants from the Washington Commission for the Humanities.
"Past exhibits dealt with art and
culture, but Peoples of Washington
deals with people and culture, though
art is included. That's a change in the
focus of our work, and we felt it was
important to get to that," says White.
There is much that's important "to
get to" in the Peoples of Washington
exhibit. While it was a long road for
White, Matheny-White, their Evergreen team and a statewide network of
cultural experts, to bring the project to
fruition, the historical road traveled by
the state's incoming peoples was, and
continues to be, a long and winding
journey, indeed. Come out to Evergreen's Gallery 4 soon, or any of the
exhibit's subsequent stops around the
state, and treat yourself to this rich
and varied portrait of Washington's
cultural heritage.

Evergreen Fund Has Banner Year
By Forrest Wilcox,
Director of the Evergreen Fund
You are all tremendous! What a fabulous year
you've given the Evergreen Fund for 1987-88.
Your generous support provided an important
margin of excellence for students and faculty as
they continued to show why Evergreen is one of the
most acclaimed liberal arts colleges in the nation.
Here's one major accomplishment for the Evergreen Fund: last year the average gift from alumni
and parents increased a whopping 16 percent from
the year before. Congratulate yourselves! Call
Guinness!
Also, the total for private gifts was very impressive indeed, as last year's total of $1.1 million
exceeded the previous year by more than $560,000.
Lots of great things happened for the Phone-AThon, too. We moved it to October to kickoff the
year in grand style. It worked. We really enjoyed
talking to you in the fall, when the school year's
beginning to pop. And talk we did: more people
were contacted by phone than ever before, and the
amount of money pledged to the Evergreen Fund
increased by 22 percent.
We still get questions about the purpose of an
annual fund. See if this helps: think of the Evergreen Fund as a living endowment for the college.
Last year, contributions came from the nearly 3,000

alumni, parents and friends you see listed on the
following pages. This support boosted the college's
45 Foundation Scholarships (see page 14 for this
year's recipients), student and faculty activity
grants, Library acquisitions, programming on community radio KAOS 89.3-FM, and many other parts
of the Evergreen cause. These gifts are irreplaceable because they're used every year in areas that
have no other source of support.
The Evergreen Fund is operated by The Evergreen State College Foundation, which is administered by the Board of Governors, a volunteer group
of donors, educators, business people and alumni
(see the next spread for two Governors in profile).
In case you're wondering, the Foundation manages
all the private and grant support that comes to the
college, and, at the same time, keeps its own
operating expenses to less than 5 percent.
As you can tell from the preceding pages, Evergreen is off to a great start. As I write, this fall's
Phone-A-Thon is well underway, and our student
callers are chatting away to alumni, parents and
friends about academic programs, faculty old and
new, and current issues on campus. It's good to be
back on one of the most intellectually energetic and
vibrant campuses in the country, and you've
definitely been a big part of making it happen.

Fare Thee Well
Evergreen greeted with mixed feelings the departure of two key officers this summer. The prevailing
emotions were happiness for, and pride in, Vice
President Sue Washburn and Development Director John Gallagher, who moved on to new positions in higher education in August and September,
respectively, after a combined 14 years in development and administration for the college.
The one-two punch of Evergreen's fund-raising
efforts since 1983, the Washburn-Gallagher duo led
a hard-working Development team that raised more
than $6.7 million in private and government contributions during their tenure. Last year their
operation pushed that figure over the $2 million
annual mark for the first time.
While Gallagher started at Evergreen as
Washburn's associate director of Development in
1983 and became director before his departure,
Washburn began her stay at the college as director
of Development and executive director of The
Evergreen State College Foundation in 1979, and
was appointed vice president for Development and
Administrative Services in 1985.
President Joe Olander is filling Washburn's
vacancy by reorganizing Development and Administrative Services into two new divisions with vice
presidents to head each. Twenty-year Evergreen
veteran Ken Winkley was appointed as vice president for Finance and Administration. A national
search is underway to fill the second vice presidency for College Advancement, which will unite

Time goes by and Christina Meserve only becomes
more intertwined with Evergreen. Tracing through
the years, these are the links—a Geoduck resume in
brief—between this 1975 alumna and her alma
mater.
»• 1971: Selecting programs designed to prepare her
for law school, she enrolls for Evergreen's first year
of operation.
>• 1975: A member of the first class of "pure," fouryear Greeners, Meserve graduates and enters law
school at the University of Washington. She
graduates, passes the Washington bar in 1978, and
returns to Oympia, where she is now an attorney
who specializes in family law and a partner in the
law firm of Connolly, Holm, Tacon & Meserve.
>• 1978: Meserve is among a group of early Greeners
who decide Evergreen is ready for an "official"
alumni organization. In September, more than 100
alums show up at a meeting who feel the same way,
and the Alumni Association is born. Meserve is
elected to serve as its first president.
»• From 1984 on: Backing her belief in the potential
of alumni for greater giving, she becomes a member
of the Board of Governors of The Evergreen State
College Foundation. Since then, she has been involved in various volunteer tasks, including
assisting Development staff members in fundraising efforts, and serving on the screening committee to determine the recipients of Foundation
Scholarships. Of this, she says: "It is tremendously
rewarding—and difficult—helping decide who will
receive a scholarship. The students who come to
Evergreen are so different. Imagine having to
choose—on merit—between an excellent student
fresh out of high school and a 50-year-old displaced
homemaker who's striving to educate herself.
Reviewing scholarship files is always tough, but I
always feel like I've contributed something."
You've contributed a lot, Christina. Thanks for
your Geoduck best!

For Dennis Peterson, better known as Denny, the
question was simple, but answers were not particularly encouraging.
"How in the world are we ever going to raise
money for this place?"
It was 1976, and the people gathered to consider
that question were the founding members of
Evergreen's first Board of Governors. They had
been called together by President Charles McCann
to begin The Evergreen State College Foundation
to raise funds for the new state college. Not even
six years old, Evergreen had a minimal endowment
and maximum needs.
More than twelve years later Denny Peterson still
remains. Known to Olympia's money-minded as vice
president of the Shearson Lehman Hutton investment firm and the voice of a daily stock report on
KGY radio station for more than twenty years,
Peterson recalls with pride how far the Foundation
Board and college Development office have come in
just over a decade.
Starting from scratch, the Foundation's fundraising efforts have grown to gather hundreds of
thousands of dollars every year and, for each of the
past two years, more than a million dollars for
Evergreen needs. Prominent among the string of
"firsts" was establishing Evergreen's first Foundation Scholarships, which have grown in number
from three to 45 (see story on page 14), and mounting the ..first major fund-raising event, which
featured guided tours to see Seattle's 1978 King Tut
exhibit.
An active community leader in Thurston County,
Peterson currently applies his expertise by chairing
the resource management committee, which
deliberates on Foundation investments and expenditures on everything from scholarships to lab equipment and art supplies for student projects. One
founding Governor who's still going strong, Peterson
persists at seeking new, fruitful answers for that
original question, "How in the world... ?"

Levers That Move
The WorldWords from a
foundation Scholar
"What a joy diversity is," writes Freshman Jessica
Kelso, a 1988 Foundation Scholar. The Olympia
native has experienced that joy first-hand through
student exchange programs in Brazil and India. The
following excerpts are from her letter of application
to the Foundation.
Dear Committee,
"About ten years ago, (when) my dad and I took a
walk through our neighborhood.. .a tall man in a
bulky sweater with a backpack approached us and
smiled. We.. .listened to some jumbled syllables in
his attempt to ask directions to the bus station.
After giving him directions, the man shook my dad's
hand heartily, patted my cheek and walked away.
"This scene.. .rooted itself in my memory. It was
the first time I was conscious of the presence of
foreigners. Now, ten years later, I myself have been
a stranger in strange lands. Through my experiences, I've come to the conclusion that too many
people view the global community in much the
same way a seven-year-old does.. .as a place of
political, social and economic boundaries between
the peoples of the world.
"I began reaching out to the world by.. .writing
to pen pals in Europe, Africa and Asia, doing class

Italian from a cookbook. My interest escalated to
include foreign language clubs, hosting a French exchange student and becoming a Rotary International Exchange Student in Brazil.
"Living.in Brazil for a year offered me the
chance.. .to live as if I were Brazilian. The excitement came from not knowing. I didn't know how to
act and react among people; I didn't know Portuguese or the standards of their culture. But I
learned—sometimes quickly, sometimes more
gradually. I came to appreciate differences and
similarities, and developed a strong desire to experience more of the world.

"Through my experiences, I have learned how to
learn... I look forward to attending Evergreen,
because it's been an important, exciting part of my
life. My mother worked on her master's degree at
Evergreen. When I was in the seventh grade I
learned algebra on one of your computers. In Brazil
I used (faculty member) Pete Sinclair's journalwriting format.
"Evergreen offers programs that encompass the
education I want to pursue—communications,
politics, economics and language. Evergreen will
help me develop a way to promote my conviction
that as a global community we can create a more
peaceful, plentiful and pleasing world."
(Kelso closes with the following quote:) "Experience, energy and invincible determination with the
right motive are the levers that move the world."

A Grass-Roots
Approach to
Improving
Education
By Barbara Leigh Smith
Academic Dean, The Evergreen State
College

Smith

We thank Academic Dean Barbara Smith for the
following excerpt from "The Washington Center: A
Grass-Roots Approach to Faculty Development and
Curricular Reform," which appeared in the October
issue of To Improve The Academy. Smith, a founder
of the Washington Center, currently serves as its
director.
We encourage submission of articles, opinion pieces
and literary efforts for possible publication in the
ReVieufs guest column. Please address inquiries and
entries to Mark Clemens, Editor, Information
Services, LIB 3122, The Evergreen State College,
Olympia, Washington 98505.

Four years ago, an effort began in
Washington state that dramatically
altered perceptions of revitalizing
faculty and improving undergraduate
education. It began modestly with two
colleges (Seattle University and Evergreen) working together; their efforts
produced a model that became the
foundation for a statewide consortium.
Known as the "Washington Center for
Improving the Quality of Undergraduate Education," the Center is a smallscale, grass-roots effort emphasizing
faculty and curriculum development. In
just two years, the consortium tripled
in size and was institutionalized with
funding from the state legislature.
Headquartered at Evergreen, it now
serves 35 institutions, both public and
independent colleges and universities.
Two closely linked features define the
Center's approach to educational improvement: first, structural alteration
of the educational environment into
"learning communities"; and second,
faculty exchanges into collaborative
teaching situations.
A variety of curricular models are
being piloted. The model most typically used by Center institutions replicates Evergreen's curricular approach.
Instead of taking a series of disciplinary courses, students enroll in an
intensive interdisciplinary program for
one or more quartern This single program is the "full load" for both the
faculty and students. The program
typically enrolls 70-80 students; three
or four faculty plan and teach the program together.
The emphasis in these programs is
on developing students' analytical and
synoptic skills and their capacity to
deal with complex issues from a multidisciplinary point of view.
The Washington Center also acts as a
statewide broker for inter-institutional
faculty exchanges. Unlike most faculty
exchange programs, this program complements and extends curricular

reform by placing exchange faculty,
wherever possible, into team-teaching
situations in new model programs.
Teams often include one faculty
member from another institution, one
veteran from a previous learning community program, and two newcomers
to collaborative teaching. Many of the
institutions rotate faculty members
through the programs to broaden the
impact on the institution, but a balance
of newcomers and relatively experienced faculty members is also important to the programs' success. By June
1989, we estimate that more than 160
faculty in a dozen institutions will have
participated in the faculty exchange
program.
Many faculty members report an initial sense of anxiety about entering a
new institution. Teaching in front of
ones' colleagues is also disquieting at
first, but most participants quickly find
that team teaching provides an important social and intellectual base from
which to experience the new community. Exchange faculty say it is an enormously important learning experience
for them, often more stimulating than
a sabbatical. Most leave the exchange
relationship with a new sense that
there is, in fact, one educational community with many shared interests.
Collaborative teaching can be powerful in bringing people together who
were previously only passing acquaintances. Faculty report that the experience substantially alters their patterns
of collegial interaction and gives them
an enhanced sense of camaraderie and
respect for one another. These new
efforts are also powerful in building
new rapport between faculty and
administrators.
Faculty exchanges and collaborative
teaching provide important opportunities for "re-framing" simply by altering
the routine work environment and
social relations in substantial ways. The
social context is dramatically re-

Higher Ed
Speaks:
Happy B-day,
Washington!
As a 100th birthday gift to Washington, 22 institutions of higher education
in the state are offering the services of
more than 90 of their faculty members
through the Centennial Scholars
Speakers Bureau. Participants include
all six of the public four-year institutions, 12 of the 27 community colleges,
and four independent institutions.
Evergreen's five Centennial Scholars
are faculty members Kenneth
Dolbeare, Pat Labine, Russell Lidman, Thomas Rainey and Sid White.
Dolbeare will speak on a wide range
of economic and political topics about.
Washington, while Labine's talk is
about the art and science of organic
farming. Lidman's talk, "The World of
Our Grandparents: Washington in the
1890s," dwells on ways people then
made their living; while Rainey will
give oratorical renditions of pioneer
figures of the Washington territory. Sid
White will talk about the cultures of
16

defined and new conceptions of educational community are born. Collaborative teaching, especially across institutional boundaries, disrupts old patterns
and expectations. It presents genuine
puzzles and new surprizes.
Our experience compels us to also
think more broadly about leadership.
When colleges think of leadership, it is
usually in terms of administrative
leadership and in a single institutional
setting. We seldom think in terms of
leadership in the classroom. We almost
never think of it across institutions.
Team teaching gives faculty the opportunity to serve as mentors and leaders
in the most useful possible place—the
classroom itself.
The new model curricula put faculty
totally in charge of their teaching, in
terms of both content and structure.
They are jointly empowered to create
something new that is substantively
and pedogogically sound and stimulating. Designing and delivering this
curriculum entails risk taking, and it is
public and collegial. A more emergent
curriculum can perhaps be fully appreciated only when contrasted with
the redundancy of much college teaching, the isolation many faculty feel, and
the bureaucratization that has undermined people's sense of personal power
and community.
This model offers a promising and
relatively low-cost approach to faculty
revitalization and curricular reform. It
has opened up a productive dialogue
about education among our institutions. The Washington Center has done
this by operating from the assumption
that, despite our differences, we are
one educational community with many
overlapping concerns, that we can
make substantial accomplishments
together that we cannot make alone,
and that small scale, grass-roots and
collaborative approaches are the best
places to begin.
