Subject: Spring Reminder and Invitation
Hello, All--
Graduation is only a couple weeks away! I hope you had a great quarter
and year.
This is a reminder that for faculty or staff sponsoring contracts, or
continuing faculty teaching in full-time programs, formal evaluations
for Spring Quarter are due to your Program Secretary by Friday, June
25, 2004. You can't hand them in too soon. All Visiting faculty--whose
contracts will be ending--and Adjunct faculty teaching Evening and
Weekend Studies courses and programs are expected to submit evaluations
of their students to your Program Secretary by Friday, June 11, 2004.
Timely submission means not only one less obstacle between you and
Summer, but also no jeopardy or complications for our students, e.g.,
(1) loss of financial aid; (2) subsequent disenrollment due to
nonpayment of tuition and fees; (3) loss of employment; (4) inability
to transfer or be considered for graduate or professional school
admission. On behalf of our students, thanks to those of you who submit
your evals on time.
Also keep in mind that for financial aid purposes, an Incomplete is
functionally the same as No Credit.

Subject: [tesccrier] Student Union at Evergreen
Greetings, fellow Greener students and faculty:
You may have seen or heard something about a movement to organize
the student
body at The Evergreen State College. Well, myself and a number
of other students have been meeting regularly for nearly a month now.
We've discussed the unique challenges that creating a student union at
an atypical school like Evergreen presents. We've discussed
potential models for government, from consensus, to e-government, to a
semi-traditional representative system (such as the University of
Manchester's Student Union, allegedly the most active and successful
student government in the U.K.: http://www.umu.man.ac.uk/). We've
discussed what to focus on in the coming months to encourage as much
participation as we can possibly garner. We haven't settled
on anything permanent, but we've done a lot of talking.
A bit too much talking, in fact. So we are beginning to take
action. A campus-wide outreach campaign is just getting
underway. An interim
organization has been formed to provide information to students and
organize the movement. We are beginning to work on specific
short-term
and long-term goals for forming a student union on campus. All of
this, however, is doomed to fail–like so many attempts that have come
before–if the student body does not support the cause.
Many similar attempts at organizing have failed in the past, and we
are determined not to become another bullet on that list. So please get
involved in whatever way you can. I'm not asking for much, just
sign a petition here, send an e-mail there. If you can come help
us hammer out a constitution or put up flyers, that's awesome, but if
you're busy (like so many of us are), that's completely
understandable. Mostly, I would just like
for you all to know what's going on and keep us in the back of your
mind. If you can, take a few minutes to e-mail us comments and
suggestions, words of encouragement,
concerns, issues you would like to see addressed–anything you think
will help. It'd be nice to know what everyone is thinking.
We are doing this for you–the students–after all...
We want you to have a say in how the thousands of dollars you're
pouring into this institution each year are spent. We want you to
be able to
have a real input in the decisions that are made here on campus that
directly affect your life and your education. We want you to have
a
place to go and have your voice heard, echoed, and magnified by the
unified student body of Evergreen, so it can be heard not only by the
administration, but potentially the world. As opinionated as the
typical Greener is, we know you all have something you're dying to say.
If you'd like to learn more about what we're doing and participate
in discussions
around the issue of student union, please sign up for the
Student Union Workforce list-serv by clicking this link and entering
your e-mail address:
http://lists.riseup.net/www/subrequest/tescstudentunion
Once on the list, you may send mail to all the other subscribers at
this address:
tescstudentunion@lists.riseup.net
Or you can simply respond to this
e-mail address if you'd like to ask me any questions or discuss whatever
is on your mind. I would be delighted to open a dialogue with you.

Project opportunity for Recognition co-learners
Thanks to everybody who responded to my e-mail below!
It's kind of short notice, but if you or your students are interested and able to take part in a first Bottle House Workday this Sunday, November 23, please reply back to me.
I envision leaving from the Circle at 9AM on Sunday morning, driving to Castle Rock (about 1 1/4 hours south on I-5), then laying bottles, having lunch, laying more bottles, and leaving around 4PM. The structure is roofed and enclosed with plastic, so the work will be out of the weather.
Let me know if you need a ride, or if you can drive and how many passengers you can take. If necessary, I have tentatively reserved a van, though I haven't quite worked out how to pay for it yet!
Thanks!

Staff and Faculty,Gail Tremblay and I have both worked with an older student, Ann Manthei, over the past several years. She has done several contracts with me researching, designing and constructing a glass bottle house in Castle Rock, WA. She has worked with teams of students from several programs, who have helped with the foundations, framing and bottle-laying for the building. She's also made presentations to various schools, service groups and in several Evergreen programs about her travels to visit historic bottle structures in the West and Southwest, and about her own project in Castle Rock.
Recently, Ann was informed that her battle with cancer is a losing one and that she has roughly six months to live. She asked me to help her realize her goal of hearing a concert in the completed glass bottle structure before she dies. She estimates that 2-3 more workdays with a team (say 6-10 people) laying bottles would complete the remaining work.
I plan to organize several Saturday or Sunday workdays over the next couple of months to help Ann complete her work and hear her concert. I'll be sending out announcements accordingly. If you'd like to take part that would be great! If you have students who would be interested that's great, too. If you want to make a workday an activity for your program that would be exceptionally great! Please direct your inquiries to me.
In exchange for your efforts, you'll learn how to lay up a mortared wall of bottles, you'll get to see the magical effect of light this type of construction affords, and you'll be sampling the best kind of Evergreen's collaborative learning. (Martin Kane! This is a Photo Op for you!). You'll have fun, and who knows, maybe you'll get inspired to build your own bottle wall addition.
Please consider taking part, or having your students take part in this project!
Thank you.

Colleagues,
This week is National Chemistry Week (NCW), an out reach activity of the American Chemical Society. Check out the display in the TESC library celebrating NCW.
Students in the Chemistry Club did a "Chemistry is Magic" show for the Introduction to Natural Science program to celebrate NCW. Some of us also did hands-on science activities for children in the Hands-on Children's Museum and at McLane Elementary school. We sure have a great reputation now in the Olympia area!
This Thursday, the Chemistry Club is hosting a "bake sale" to celebrate NCW as well. It will be in the CAB between 11-1 on Thursday, October 23rd. If you got goodies from our previous bake sale, you know how good they are and I am sure you will return for more tomorrow. If you did not, then tomorrow is your chance.
Please support the bake sale. Chemistry Club is relying on it to earn funds to support their activities. Everyone who supports the bake sale this week will receive a small gift of appreciation, in celebration of NCW.
See you tomorrow in the CAB between 11-1!
THANK YOU!

Dear Gary:
Yvonne is my faculty sponsor for a learning contract I'm doing this fall called Race and Other Pink Elephants (ROPE Radio). In short, I'm studying the historical and lasting role race plays in influencing public policy. I hope to develop a humanities-based radio program that focuses on this issue after I complete my contract. (I've attached my syllabus and learning contract, in case you'd like further detail on my academic goals).
Yvonne asked me to contact you about possibly carpooling with the group of students that are going with you to the WSAME conference on 12/3. I would like to carpool with you all if possible. I also would like to know if you are aware of any scholarships for this conference. Thank you in advance, for any assistance you can provide me.
