Amtrak stop? Slowed, for now
GRCC faculty expresses no confidence in president
By ROBERT WHALE
Reporter staff
rwhale@auburn-reporter.com
A majority of tenured faculty at Green River Community College has lost all confidence in the college’s president, according to documents the Auburn Reporter has received. So severe is the deterioration of support for GRCC President Eileen Ely, in fact, that 92 percent of GRCC’s 112 tenured faculty voted May 22 in support of a no-confidence resolution. “An overwhelming majority of the tenured faculty is very concerned Ely about what has happened at (the college) over the past three years,” faculty wrote in a letter to the college’s accreditation team.. “… We are deeply troubled by the dismantling of shared governance, low morale and the deteriorating workplace atmosphere at the college.” In their letter, tenured faculty cited concerns about the administration’s “lack of transparency, poor communications and unwillingness to consult with faculty on decisions affecting instruction. These negative trends have intensified over the past three years, and we are gravely
City leaders fret that the Washington Department of Transportation’s study of a possible Amtrak stop at the Transit Station is breaking in a direction that does not bode well for Auburn. So concerned are City leaders, Public Works Director Dennis Dowdy told members of the Community Development Committee on Tuesday, that they have asked for a meeting with the Washington State Secretary of Transportation “to see if there is some way we can get this train back on track. It’s sort of derailed.”

Cast invites audience to be a part of the ‘Bee’ By Shawn Skager
What’s happened, Dowdy said, is that WSDOT’s own work schedule, which sets dates for the completion of various important study benchmarks, has “collapsed,” leaving crucial technical work unfinished the WSDOT should have completed five to six months ago. Because the City does not yet have the technical report it should have, Dowdy said, it has not had the quality time it needs to review the state’s work and make suggestions. Dowdy said that WSDOT staff also have said that they

With weeks remaining before the June 25 special election, in which Pacific voters will determine whether to recall Mayor Cy Sun, the King County Department of Elections has released the official ballot language. According to the ballot, voters will have to consider whether Sun committed malfeasance, misfeasance and violated his oath of office in two instances in their decision to decide whether to remove him from office. The first issue in question is whether Sun directed Pacific police to “operate as his personal police force in conducting a criminal investigation into the

Auburn’s Cummings participates in Congressional Foster Youth Shadow Day For the Reporter
Auburn’s Ryan Cummings recently represented Washington state at the Congressional Foster Youth Shadow Day in Washington, D.C. Members of Congress were paired with young foster care alumni (ages 18-22) from the member’s Congressional dis-
trict. Forty youth accompanied their members of Congress to hearings, meetings, floor votes and other activities. Youth had the opportunity to share their stories with Congress and discuss reforms to the foster care system. Cummings is in college searching for the career path. He is an integral member of
Washington’s foster youth and alumni advisory board, Passion to Action. Cummings also is the youth representative on Washington’s Commission on Foster Care, working with lawyers, judges, legislators and administrators in crafting well informed foster care policy.

Orion Industries trains people struggling with barriers to employment then helps them get jobs in the community. In 2012, the company helped more than 350 people from Federal Way to Auburn, to Kent, Renton, Tacoma and Seattle, placing more than 100 of them in community jobs, an achievement worth $3 million to the region. Now the company, which has outgrown its facility in Federal Way, is preparing to break ground on a 100,000-square-foot building in Auburn, on 6.5 acres of undeveloped property just west of the Auburn Municipal Airport and north of the Metro Park and Ride. The groundbreaking starts at 2 p.m. Thursday, June 6 at 1590 A St. NE. Orion has invited Gov. Jay Inslee, Mayor Pete Lewis, King County Executive Dow Constantine, and King County Representative Pete von Reichbauer to say a few words. When the new building opens this December, it will house corporate operations and Orion’s growing manufacturing, contact center services and training and employment divisions. In Federal Way it employs 225 people in three buildings. “Auburn is a key location for Orion for several reasons,” said John Theisen, Orion president and CEO. “Importantly, it puts us in closer proximity to our largest manufacturing customer, Boeing Auburn, and positions us closer to a growing cluster of aerospace suppliers. Notably, this location also increases accessibility to public transportation for staff and training program participants.”

[ AMTRAK from page 1 ] are relying upon a market survey piece with specific criteria that Amtrak has mandated they apply in choosing Amtrak stops. Thing is, the WSDOT has been reluctant about sharing the results of that survey with the City of Auburn. And when Dowdy asked to see a copy, he said, the response he got was that it was “proprietary information.” After more than a week of pressing the issue, Dowdy said, the state claimed that the only way Auburn could get a look at the survey would be by submitting a public disclosure request (PDR). More than a week has passed since the City made its request, Dowdy said, and all that he has gotten so far is an assurance from the woman handling the PDR that she is trying to get the quasi-public Amtrak to release the “proprietary information.” All of which puzzles and frustrates Dowdy. “Truth be told, all they would really have to do if they had it, would be to mark it as exempt from public release and give it to us,” Dowdy said. “That’s about how difficult it is to release the information to us.” For three to four months Auburn has been piping its displeasure into state ears, with not much to show for it.

“The result is that we are in a holding pattern, hoping that we get that technical survey report to be able to review, so we can modify comments according to each of the technical documents that we have reviewed so far,” Dowdy said. … “We would like to get it back on track and following a schedule that’s deliberate. We would like to have a chance to give them a good, quality review. Even if it means delaying the study by a few months, it would be far better, so at least we understand it, even if we don’t like the results. At the request of the City, state Sen. Joe Fain (R-Auburn, District 47) last year asked the WSDOT to conduct the study of the Auburn area to determine if a stop here would work. Passenger trains came to Auburn for about 80 years, and Mayor Pete Lewis makes no bones about his desire to make it an Amtrak stop once more. “The City of Auburn has been a train town almost since its beginning,” Lewis recently told the Auburn Reporter. “The reality is that Auburn has been made a central location by geography and our road system for the transportation needs of communities from Lake Tapps and Enumclaw, Black Diamond, Maple Valley and Covington, along with Algona and Pacific, with many of the residents of Federal Way needing to use Amtrak.”
proved to do so.” Because Sun’s letter to Picket did not reference any crimes committed in the City of Pacific, the police department refused to investigate them. According to Pacific Councilman Clint Steiger, a vocal opponent of the controversial mayor, Sun’s allegations against the department and the claim that Sun “continues to fight against the entrenched corruption in the City of Pacific” are unfounded. “The police department were never involved in that investigation,” Steiger said. “I was the person that did all that.” According to Steiger, he obtained information regarding Sun’s farm in Echo by calling and talking with an office worker in Echo’s City Hall. Steiger also weighed in on Sun’s response to the second charge in the recall that he jeopardized the City’s liability insurance coverage by not filling vacant department head positions. In the ballot language, Sun places the blame at the feet of the City Council. “Where he states the council has been rejecting his people, the people he’s brought have not met the qualifications so they’ve been rejected by the
council,” Steiger said. “His accusations are all junk.” Although Sun has steadfastly maintained that a culture of corruption was prevalent in the City’s prior administration under former mayor Richard Hildreth, a Washington State Auditor’s review earlier this year of Pacific’s books from Jan. 1, 2011 to Dec. 31, 2011, found “no instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards.” “(There were) more than 40 claims of corruption in the City from various sources, newspaper articles and blog postings,” City Councilman Joshua Putnam said after the report was released in February. “They investigated all of them, went over budget on hours and at the end of the day found no corruption, no improper governmental actions.” Hildreth has filed a lawsuit against Sun and the City of Pacific to clear any charges that he ran a corrupt administration. Sun did not respond to an email request for an interview. The vote to recall Sun is June 25. A simple majority is needed to oust him from office. The final election results will be certified July 9.

Robert Rossen recently hooked me for a couple of hours. I came across the 1947 movie “Johnny O’Clock” starring Dick Powell, Lee J. Cobb, Evelyn Keyes and Nina Foch. It has one of my favorite lines in film noir history, uttered by Johnny, played by Powell. “I do not know what’s going on, and I don’t like it when I don’t know what’s going on.” That sums up Rossen’s dialogue and life in many ways. Rossen was one of the great dialogue writers and directors of his day. “Johnny O’Clock” was his first job as a director. He was promoted after the original director, King Vidor left, I think. (Someone on Facebook just correctly noted it was Charles Vidor and I had written William Powell, and it should have been Dick Powell.) Rossen directed three of my favorite pictures, “All the King’s Men,” “Body and Soul” and, in 1961, “Hustler,” with Paul Newman, Jackie Gleason and George C. Scott. There are few moments in film like the end of “Hustler” when Scott growls across the pool hall at Newman, “I want my money.” Rossen is an interesting character. He was one of the best at writing story and dialogue. His film talk lives well after the picture has ended. But in 1951 it was Rossen not talking, then finally talking, that got him into the trouble that plagued him until his death in 1966 at the age of 57. The House Un-American Activities Committee named him a communist in 1951. Rossen refused to name names the first time the committee brought him before its members, but two years later he named 57.

Partridge, ‘one of us,’ is the choice for Auburn mayor During his time as councilman, John Partridge has shown many excellent qualities of leadership. As chairman of the finance committee and as a member of the Municipal Services Committee, he provides solid and sensible leadership. His most well-known example of leadership as a councilman, of course, is the creation of the Auburn Valley Humane Society. His vision, planning, collaboration, fund-raising and coordination with various City agencies all culminated in a functioning, independent and self-funding organization that is improving life in Auburn for both its pets and its residents. John’s ability to turn a vision into action and action into reality is something that has been sorely missing in Auburn since we moved here in 2005.

of power and secrecy that makes City Hall a generally unfriendly place to visit. John Partridge has shown that he will break that pattern. I recently spoke to John about a small business owner who was struggling to get the City to provide help in finding her way through new licensing and building requirements. Up until then, she was unable to get constructive responses from anyone at City Hall. Even a visit to the mayor himself resulted in obfuscation and patronizing responses. After my call, John took it upon himself to visit the business owner, find out the nature of the problem and contact the appropriate City agencies who, in turn, contacted her.

The Hiss story was an example, and his guilt and innocence are argued to this day. Rossen’s career is a fascinating study in the conflict of what we do and say. His films are filled with the warp and woof of words. Rossen could write great dialogue, but couldn’t find
the right words at the right time to keep himself out of trouble with friends and foes. “I do not know what’s going on, and I don’t like it when I don’t know what’s going on.” See ya, Johnny.

[ GRCC from page 1 ] troubled about the future of the college.” What’s more, faculty wrote, during Ely’s tenure several top-level employees have either left, been demoted or been dismissed. A dozen division chairs, including Hank Galmish, an English professor and chairperson of the school’s Instructional Council, signed the letter. Ely acknowledged the concerns. In her email response, she said she “welcomes “the opportunity to meet and have a courageous conversation with the members of the Instructional Council Leadership

While it will be two or three years before he regains full sensation in his arms, Marrocco told Stars and Stripes his new arms give him hope for the future. Issaquah native Adrianne Haslet is displaying similar courage and determination in the wake of the Boston Marathon bombings. A professional dancer, Haslet lost her left foot in the attack. While such a tragedy would understandably devastate most of us, the 32-year old Haslet is determined not to let it ruin her life. “I absolutely want to dance again, and I also want to run the marathon next year,” she told the Associated Press. “I will crawl across the finish line, literally crawl, if it means I finish it.” Speaking about her ordeal, she told a Seattle television station, “I just want people to
who brought these concerns forward.” After the tenured faculty issued their resolution, the GRCC Board of Trustees expressed unanimous support for Ely. “The board of trustees stands behind President Ely,” said board chairman Tom Campbell. “We are happy with the direction she is taking Green River and the leadership team she has assembled”. Faculty claim that the college is “in crisis” and that there is a lack of shared governance between the faculty and administration. As part of their resolution, they requested the reinstatement of
past practices and policies, including broad involvement in decision-making related to instruction and institutional effectiveness. In his response, Campbell said the board “takes the issues seriously and will review the statements made at the meeting.” He said the faculty leadership needs to “come to the table” and accept the invitation the college administration has extended to have “a courageous conversation” to discuss the issues of concern. The faculty members presented their concerns in April to the college’s board of trustees.
know that you can come out of a situation that might seem like the end of the world and come out stronger.” That same strength of will miraculously sustained Amanda Berry, Gina DeJesus and Michelle Knight, who recently escaped from their decade-long captivity in a Cleveland home. The three were kidnapped as young girls and abused and tortured for more than 10 years. It may take years for them to fully recover, but amazingly, they emerged from that house of terror with awe-inspiring strength and presence of mind. As we despair of the violence people wreak upon each other, we should also remember the selflessness, courage and compassion people show. Thousands of first responders rushed into the Twin Towers on 9/11, driven by a sense of professional duty and human compassion. One of
them, off-duty firefighter Steven Siller, ran almost two miles through the closed Brooklyn-Battery Tunnel wearing 60 pounds of gear to join the rescue attempt. Siller perished that day, along with more than 400 other first responders. When we think of the Boston bombings, we also should remember the sight of scores of medical personnel and volunteers immediately rushing toward the blast zone, with no thought for their own safety. We face many challenges today, but rather than think of ourselves as victims, we should emulate those who confront tragedy and violence with courage, refusing to be beaten, determined to prevail. That indomitable human spirit is our greatest asset and our greatest hope. Don Brunell is the president of the Association of Washington Business (www.awb.org).

The play premieres 7:30 p.m. Friday, the first of seven performances at the historic theater. “Having the audience members on the stage, you just never know what’s going to happen,” Messinger said. “Every single night is a different show. That’s obviously very fun for the cast members and the audience.” The production is the sixth play put on by the Auburn Community Players, but the first directed by Messinger, according to producer Jim Kleinbeck. The play takes a humorous, touching musical glimpse into the lives of six adolescents as they compete in a spelling bee run by three adults. “They’ve done a won-
derful job. It’s been a great change of pace to work with new people, even though she’s (Messinger) been our musical director the last couple of shows,” Kleinbeck said. “They bring a new perspective. They definitely have put a lot of blood, sweat and tears into this show.” Messinger said she jumped at the chance to direct the play because of its humor and focus on adolescence. “This play is about the journey that kids go through in their adolescence,” she said. “I’ve seen it a couple times and almost directed it once. I just feel in love with the story of each kid. We all know somebody like this, we grew up with somebody like this. There is the home-schooled kid, there is the kid that

That spoke to me. “And the humor is in there, it vacillates between being very funny and very touching,” Messinger added. “There is a lot of good emotion in it. And good music.” The Auburn Community Players have been working on the show since April, according to Messinger, who hopes the affection the cast has developed for their roles comes through during

I swivel 90 degrees in my chair, look out my north window, affirm what I see isn’t an apparition. The Stealth Bomber floats across the sky into oblivion. You’d be in awe too.

Lions snag state 3A baseball crown State 4A track
and field meet in the books
By SHAWN SKAGER sskager@auburn-reporter.com
Auburn Mountainview baseball coach Glen Walker remembers the moment it all come together for his state 3A championship team. “There are a lot of things I’ll remember about this year,” Walker said. “I’ll remember the retreat we had at the beginning of the season.” Before the Lions had even had the chance to lace up their cleats and take to the field last February, Walker, coaches and players gathered at the school gym for a night of team bonding. “They all stayed up until 3 or 4 in the morning,” Walker said. “The next Monday, things were different, attitudes were different. Guys were nicer to each other. It seemed like they all trusted what I was trying to do, and they trusted what each other was trying to do.” For the top-ranked Lions (26-3), it was that trust and confidence that proved to be the difference, culminating with a 7-1 win over West Seattle in the Washington State title game at GESA Stadium in Pasco last Saturday. “They believed in each other,” Walker said. “There was not one guy who thought they had to do it themselves. It was a combination of ‘if I don’t get my

“When that final out … happened, I looked Joey Cassano in the eyes, ran up, gave him a hug and we started that dog pile,” McCulloch said. “That feeling of being at the bottom of the pile, I don’t think I can imagine anything ever feeling like that. It was really great. At that moment all we worked for came together and we were state champs.” The state title is the first for the school’s baseball program but the second for Walker, who won a state title at Liberty with major-leaguer Tim Lincecum in 2003. “We did it a whole lot differently this year, we won everything,” Walker said. “There is not a title out there that we don’t own right now. We didn’t have the stud, the (Division I) big-league Cy Young guy on the hill. The only similarity was that both teams were close, a tight-knit group that likes each other and plays for each other. Ultimately, I think that is the difference between being good and being a champion. “I’ll remember that we did things this year that we’ve never done before,” Walker continued. “They are just a great, fun group to be around. From Feb. 25 until the end they were fun, energetic. They had great personalities. They worked hard and never complained.”

the 800-meters,” MacDouball said. “He ran in the slower of the two heats and missed qualifying by .09 seconds. He actually ran a very good race but qualifying can often come down to fraction of a second. He had a great season and we’re

Auburn Mountainview senior Devin Bryant led the way for the Lions with a second-place finish in the long jump at the Washington State 3A Track and Field Championships last weekend. Bryant soared 22 feet, 9 3/4 inches at Mount Tahoma Stadium last Friday night. “Devin Bryant was just really ready to compete,” Lion track coach Joel MacDougall said. “He actually switched up the foot he jumps off of in the long jump during the district meet because of shin splints. It is unconventional, especially to make the change right before state, but our jumps coach, Kent Rodseth, prepared him very well for the meet and he delivered.” Also placing for the Auburn Mountainview boys

But I just gave it my all.” For Love, his time of 1 minute, 57.94 seconds in the finals – about three seconds slower than the 1:55.07 personal-best time he ran in the prelims on Friday – was a fitting end to his prep running career. “I’m happy with what I’ve accomplished in my four years at Auburn Riverside, I really am,” said Love, who hopes to run at Washington

in the quarterfinals. With its season on the line, Auburn Mountainview responded with a 9-8 come-from-behind victory to earn a semifinal game against Kennewick. “We always had confidence during games,” Anderson said. “During the season we’d come back in multiple games. We always believed in ourselves, and our coaches believed in us.” “We get a lot of energy in the dugouts. We get behind our teammates,” senior co-captain Brice McCulloch added. “We take it one at-bat at a time. We get loud. It gives our hitters confidence at the plate, and if we get the energy in the dugout then the guys in the field know we’re alive.” Against Kennewick in the semifinals the Lions again found themselves trailing but were able to mount yet another comeback to earn a spot in the title game with a 6-3 victory. The championship game was almost anticlimatic, with Auburn Mountainview firmly in control from the beginning. “It was a big relief because we had (rallied) three or four times during the tournament,” Anderson said. “It was relieving to be able to jump out early and take the lead during a game.”

Museum seeks items from ’50s, ’60s for next exhibit A juke box, a record player, a flashy painted car hood or other parts, a car bench seat. What do these things have in common? Well, they are memorabilia the White River Museum doesn’t have but “most desperately needs” for its next exhibit, “Grease Was the Word,” said museum director Patricia Cosgrove. The exhibit, now in the planning stages, will focus on the 1950s and ’60s car culture in Auburn. “For it we need to locate a number of items that we just don’t own. We do not necessarily need donations; loans would do as well,” Cosgrove said. Here are some of the other items needed: • Elvis poster, record cover • Beatles poster, record cover • Shangri-Las poster, record cover • Supremes poster/record cover • A radio • Stack of .45s • Class rings • Any memorabilia from nonGearlords car clubs All items must be identified by mid-June. For additional information, contact Cosgrove at the museum, 918 H St. SE, call her at 253-2887437 or fax her at 253-931-3098.
