Evergreen State College

Because that’s what it is… a bubble. Sometimes it’s a good thing, sometimes it’s bad, but whatever your take is upon living within it, no one can deny that it changes you. Evergreen is a place of change. Nothing exists unaffected. If you are unaffected, then you’ll hate it here. There is no room for apathy.

Evergreen is a beautiful, liberal arts college that offers a unique experience using interdisciplinary learning (see: no grades) and evaluations to shape education. Evergreen is a place where you get exactly what you put into your education. Some people will attend, slack off and skim through their entire education… and have a poor transcript but a degree to show for it. Others will work their butts off, investing time and caring, and push themselves… and they will emerge unrecognizable. They will excel and thrive.

No grades you say? It’s not easy… evaluations written by your professor as well as yourself, are more telling than a simple letter could ever be. Do all the work but miss tons of class? Your absences will be mentioned, possible credit will be docked… Accountability is key and personal responsibility is a must.

Overall, amazing. I am currently an Elderly Sophomore and loving every minute I spend at Evergreen.

I only made it a year going to school here, but it’s a fun place to visit. It’s a weird little world at Evergreen, I miss it sometimes.

What can I say? I graduated without having to write more than one paper a year! Oh, but the evaluations.

Go, Geoducks go,

Through the mud and the sand,

let’s go.

Siphon high, squirt it out,

swivel all about,

let it all hang out.

Go, Geoducks go,

Strech your necks when the tide

is low

Siphon high, squirt it out,

swivel all about,

let it all hang out.

my earnest desire to return to my alma mater as a faculty librarian and teach the next generation of greeners…

whoohoo!

these crazy motherfuckers have compost bins in their CAFETERIAS.not to mention, an organic garden. !!!!!
