Campus life
The title “porn star” and Ph.D. do not usually go hand-in-hand. This isn’t the case with Annie Sprinkle, a feminist porn activist, who spoke at the Evergreen State College last week.
Evergreen student groups Womyn’s Resource Center and Greeners for Choice sponsored a series of lectures by former porn star Sprinkle.
We know it’s Week 3 of Spring Quarter, and you’re stressed about wrapping up a year of studies.
But wasn’t there something you wanted to do this year?
The PSCRB bridges the gap between the Campus Police and the Evergreen community consisting of students, staff and faculty. The goal of the PSCRB is to build better relationships across campus. For examble, last year the police wanted to change the policies for the use of Tasers on campus. In order to communicate this issue to the community, the issue was brought to the PSCRB.
In addition to the individual pea-patch plots in the garden, we have a huge group plot. In past years this plot has been underutilized. I'm not going to lie, it is a lot of work. But when the work is shared by several gardeners, it gets a lot easier and fun. The plot is big enough that the group could potentially grow enough to supply themselves with a small CSA. The folks who do the work will be the ones who share the harvest.
A program titled "Arrested Development," taught by Peter Dorman and scheduled for the upcoming Spring Quarter, has been canceled.
There are many programs throughout the year that are canceled for a number of reasons, but we thought this one had some especially ironic qualities. We hope you'll know why.
The following are upcoming events related to Black History Month:
February 9th: ‘Hidden Colors’ is a film about the underrepresented histories of people of color worldwide. The Black Student Union will be hosting the screening. Come watch in CAB 301 at 7pm. For more information about the film see: http://hiddencolorsfilm.com/the-film.php
Hailing from Berkley, California, Lia Mezzio has joined the Evergreen community as the new Campus Organizer to help continue WashPIRG's important work. With the snow of a few weeks ago welcoming her, Mezzio has been very busy putting together a team for WashPIRG's current campaigns. As there has been a high demand for student volunteers and interns, along with a lot of snow, it has been no simple task.
Campus Dining Services has implemented several changes over winter break.
Students celebrated the Martin Luther King holiday on Monday, January 16 in the snow on Red Square. The snowball fights seemed to be mostly friendly fire.
