Green River administration, faculty clash over issues as class waiting lists, expectations, grading and classroom size. Now, faculty say, under a business-oriented model that GRCC President Eileen Ely is aggressively pushing, financial bean counters without any academic experience
By ROBERT WHALE rwhale@auburn-reporter.com
Until recently Green River Community College’s administration allowed its faculty the final decisions on such vital questions
are taking over their turf. Faculty say the administration is bypassing them on such vital questions as prerequisites, which are being transferred to marketing people. That the administration no longer wants instructors to
be the deciding element as far as the placement exams they use to decide whether a student is ready for a particular class. And that the administration wants more control over the books instructors use. Two weeks ago, rumbling discon-

Come celebrate Auburn’s 122nd birthday Auburn became an incorporated city in June of 1891. At that time, the city was called Slaughter, after Lt. William Slaughter. A monument was erected in 1981 in memory of Slaughter and still stands in a local park. The city lies between the confluences of the White and Green Rivers. The valley soil
reaped crops of vegetables, fruit and hops. The celebration honors its history with local musicians, food and a beer garden featuring local craft beers. “The event (also) will include poetry, displays of our history and hops and free cupcakes,” said Laura Westergard, ADA executive director.

Recall possibilities: Pacific residents will cast their votes in a special election on June 25 to decide whether to recall Mayor Cy Sun. With results expected to be certified by July 9, the question then becomes, what’s next for Pacific? According to Pat Mason, senior legal consultant with the Municipal Research and Services Center of Washington, the immediate future lies in the hands of the City Council. “If the mayor prevails, obviously he stays in office,” Mason said. “Assuming he is recalled, that creates a vacancy in the position of mayor.” Mason explained that the City Council would then have the authority to fill the mayoral vacancy with a person of its choosing. “Probably with someone off the council, but it doesn’t have to be,” Mason said. That appointee would then serve as mayor until the Nov. 5 general election, according to Mason. “Then there would be a special filing period established of three normal business days,” Mason said. Anyone interested in running for mayor would then be allowed to file and have his or her name appear on the Nov. 5 ballot. “It’s likely there wouldn’t be time for a primary for this position by the time this sorts out,” Mason said. “So it’s likely they would all just be on the ballot in November, with the candidate receiving the most votes being elected.” The person winning the November mayoral election would then serve out the remainder of Sun’s term and the 2015 fall election will decide the next mayor, with the term beginning Jan. 1, 2016. – Shawn Skager

The mayor allegedly attempted to use Pacific officers as his personal police force and put the City’s liability insurance at risk by failing to properly fill vacant city staff openings. Mail-in ballots must be postmarked by June 25 to be counted. Ballots can be turned in at the 24-hour, King County Elections Department, 919 SW Grady Way, Renton. A mobile drop box van will be stationed at the Algona-Pacific library branch, 255 Ellingson Road, Pacific, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., June 22, and 10 a.m. to 8 p.m., June 25. Voters should fill out their ballots as soon as possible, Van Eckstrom recommended. “We encourage them to do it sooner rather than later,” she said. Anyone who hasn’t received his or her ballot by the middle of next week should call the department at 206-296-VOTE (8083) or they can request a new ballot by mail. More information can be found at www.kingcounty. gov/elections/currentelections/201306.aspx. A simple majority is needed to recall Sun. Results should be certified by July 9.

Superhero? Sheriff’s deputies nab busy burglar David C. Hindal already had cut a wide criminal swath across many states when he was caught burglarizing an Auburn-area home last year. Last week a King County jury convicted Hindal, 43, of residen-
tial burglary. He will be sentenced Friday and could spend between 63 and 84 months in prison. Alert residents called 911 after noticing Hindal in their neighbor’s backyard on April 8, 2012 while the neighbor and his family were on vacation in Eastern Washington. King County
Pierce County Prosecutor Mark Lindquist on Monday charged Brian Todd James Sicade, 22, with murder in the second degree and vehicular homicide after leading Auburn police on a high-speed chase on Interstate 5, crashing a stolen car and killing his passenger, Victor Wilson, on Feb. 4. Sicade also was charged with possession of a stolen vehicle, attempting to elude a pursuing police vehicle and driving with a suspended license in the third degree. The defendant was arraigned in Pierce County Superior Court and bail set at $750,000. “The defendant senselessly turned a misdemeanor into murder when he chose to speed away from police and eventually, predictably, crashed,” Lindquist said. “The defendant will be held fully accountable.”

our perspective exactly what the issues are.” – Green River Community College Spokeswoman Vickie Sheehan on the rift between administration and tenured faculty.
Turning around her troubled life Sexually assaulted as a child, Ernestine Finkley’s adult life would be ripped by domestic violence, shredded by unshakable substance abuse, savaged by mental health problems. Convinced the misery was all of her own making, the Auburn woman descended into a maelstrom of guilt and shame. Rage and despair pushed her to the edge — twice, she tried to kill herself. “I had nowhere to go,” Finkley said. Anger and drugs led to a series of run-ins with the law, ending with eight months in King County lockup for domestic violence. The prospect of endless days in a jail cell rattled Finkley. “I was shook in the beginning because I didn’t know what was going to happen to me,” said Finkley, a wife and mother of three grown children. “As time went on, I had to make a decision. Do I continue to live with my behavior? I had a lot of time to think. I had nowhere to go.” Then Finkley’s broken life took an unexpected turn. Professionals, notably therapists and counselors from Sound Mental Health (SMH), stepped in with a better diagnosis for the emotionally-torn woman, and the means to put her life together. Recovery was a tough road, but at 51, Ernestine Finkley defied the odds. At first she resented and resisted the courtordered treatment program. Ultimately, and reluctantly, she took the necessary, painful steps to become a rare success story. Finkley grudgingly came to grips with her own plight. “They helped me meet this lady, Ernestine,” she said of SMH’s approach. “It was a lot of work. It was hard, painful, but I didn’t give up. I thought about where I came from. I didn’t want that life no more. I wanted to be a good example (for my family).” Timi Fair, one of Finkley’s therapists, often treats 25 clients at one time. Of those patients, she says, about 20 percent make a

Money not well spent on Auburn’s golf course I, too, agree with Jeanne Herold’s letter (“Wasting money on the golf course”, Auburn Reporter, May 10). Jan McDowell’s sarcastic letter (“Golf course needs our support, appreciation”, Auburn Reporter, May 24) is an example of the misguided idea that golf is a priority in this economy. If McDowell has a copy of the April 26 Auburn Reporter, Robert Whale’s article on the front page clearly stated, “The Auburn Golf Course Clubhouse will get a $35,000 upgrade to its audio-visual systems.” The article stated that Councilmember John Holman asked “that all costs associated with golf-course A-V equipment be referred back to council prior to expenditure.” Councilmember Bill Peloza,

GUEST EDITORIAL
Confusion remains when it comes to recycling By Kathleen Edman For the Auburn Reporter
Last fall the City of Auburn did a survey of nearly 300 residential recycling cart, and found more than 70 percent contained items that were not actually recyclable. The City wanted to see what people were really putting into their carts so it could help inform resi-
dents better about recycling. One of the big discoveries was a lot of loose plastic bags in more than a third of the recycling carts surveyed. Plastic bags are recyclable, but not by placing them in curbside recycling bins. It’s understandable that people would put them in the recycling carts because the plastic bags are recyclable. But loose plastic
bags are a big problem for the companies that process recyclable materials because they get stuck in the equipment. Please do not put plastic bags in your recycle cart. Either reuse your plastic bags at home (to pick up pet waste, for example), or recycle them by making a bag of bags and take them to a participating retailer.
City Council chambers, the major’s office, the council rooms and common areas, but does not explain what money is going where. If Robert Whale has the facts straight, Jan McDowell owes Jeanne Herold an apology. McDowell best get the facts straight before accusing Jeanne Herold of “ranting about a golf course” and “I think her estimate of $35,000 for audiovideo equipment was grossly exaggerated.” It was not her estimate. It is clearly stated in the article. The point is that $35,000 is ridiculous and should have been referred back to council prior to expenditure and voted down. It is a stupid expenditure of money. It may be “a joy to play golf at this course,” McDowell, just find a way for this pet project of the City of Auburn to become self-supporting. [ more LETTERS page 6 ]
Many area stores have plastic bag recycling bins where you can deposit your used bags. Another thing the City found in the survey was that many people put their recyclables, like their cans and bottles and paper, in plastic bags before they toss them in their recycling cart. Please don’t do that. Dump your recyclables out of the bags right into your recycling cart. That makes it easier for workers at the processing plant. [ more EDMAN page 6 ]

Ernestine Finkley has found hope and a new start in life with the help of family, friends and professional care from Sound Mental Health. MARK KLAAS, Auburn Reporter
[ KLAAS from page 5 ] successful recovery. But only a few cases, about 10 percent, come out of treatment with such glowing results. “I saw something else in her, and so did everybody else in the program who worked with her,” Fair said. “I saw in Ernestine that she wanted to change.” Finkley finally stared down her demons, and killed them. “She’s a dragon slayer,” Fair said. Under the watch of Fair and others, Finkley participated in and navigated a King County-funded SMH program – Sober Transitions and Recovery Today (START). After years of struggling, she got her life back on track. The 18-month program provides intensive mental health and substance abuse treatment, with transitional housing for those coming out of jail settings. Finkley was in a clean and sober house for seven months, transitioned to her own apartment and
then moved into subsidized housing. Finkley was diagnosed with a bipolar disorder and post-traumatic stress disorder, the product of domestic violence relationships and childhood trauma. She soon got the medication she needed. More remarkable is how Finkley stayed on the course for recovery while overcoming the loss of one of her sons, shot and killed during a dispute in Seattle. Despite the woes, Finkley’s once-divided family joined friends, her church and the SMH support team to help her put her life in order. “I was freed. I wouldn’t be here without Sound Mental Health,” Finkley said. “My life has changed dramatically.” Now Finkley wants to reciprocate. She plans to become a peer counselor and help others face and overcome similar problems. The peer specialist is a certified professional who, having experienced his or her own recovery, helps others as they seek mental
health and substance abuse support. “I want to stay in touch with what got me here,” she said. Finkley is an example of someone with a mental illness who has accepted help and change to rise up and become a productive member of society. She is determined to succeed. She got that chance. “Successful recovery happens for people every day,” said Steve McLean, SMH’s director of communications. “(Finkley’s case) is an incredibly inspirational story of recovery and redemption.” Nervous but otherwise undaunted, Finkley spoke at SMH’s recent gala – an event dedicated to raising awareness about the mental health epidemic in today’s prisons and jails nationwide. She shared her story and message with hundreds of others – that recovery is possible and people can change.

A few other recycling tips: • If you have extra recyclables that won’t fit in your recycling cart, put them in a box or can (not a plastic bag) and label it, “Recycle.” This will avoid your recyclables from being charged as extra garbage. • Food-soiled paper such as paper towels or napkins should not go in the recycling cart. You can put those in your yard

Backus ready to be our first female mayor On Friday, June 14, the City of Auburn will be celebrating its 122th birthday with a party on Main Street. That’s exciting. And I’m excited about another celebration – of Nancy Backus as our first woman mayor. I’ve known Nancy Backus since she was my grocery bag person at the Piggly Wiggly store before the MIT Casino was established. Wow, has she come a long way. She was a dedicated and outstanding Auburn High School student, went on to acquire her college degree, became a wife and mother and a devoted community volunteer over all these years. Nancy has worked at The Boeing Co. for more waste cart along with all food scraps. • Take caps and lids off bottles and plastic containers before recycling. Caps and lids should be put in the garbage. • Shredded paper should be put in large paper bags before placing in the recycling cart. Tape the bags securely to reduce litter. Most people are trying their best to recycle, but recycling is confusing sometimes, and different cities and haulers may han-
than 20 years, rising up the management ladder in finance, a field that truly prepares her for the position as mayor. She has had more than 10 years of City Council, regional and national committee experience. Nancy will bring all this acquired knowledge to the office of mayor. In response to John Pinsker’s letter to the editor on May 31, inferring that Nancy is an “obedient deputy mayor” and isn’t her own person, that claim is untrue. I can assure everyone that Nancy Backus is her own highly intelligent, experienced and decision-making councilmember – and definitely her “own person.” Nancy has the ability to listen to our citizens and obtain win-win solutions. I was impressed when I first met Nancy at Piggly Wiggly, and my admiration for her intelligence and abilities has only increased over the years. Please join me in voting for and electing our first woman mayor, Nancy Backus. – Joyce Peloza dle recycling differently. For more information, visit www.auburnwa.gov/ solidwaste.

I question how many residents of Auburn play golf on this course? This dream of continually dumping taxpayer money to upgrade this course to a professional level to attract a “lucrative tournament market” is just that, a dream. Reading the rant from Mr. Peloza, fearing a delay “just because somebody wants to review $35,000,” leaves me with a bad taste in my mouth about how he views our taxpayer money and about the decisions he is making as a councilmember. Do Mr. Peloza and the council have the ability to understand how our taxpayer money should be spent? Does spending $35,000 on a golf course continually in the red bring into question the priorities of the council? Maybe McDowell should refer to these decisions as “stupid.” McDowell explains to readers that spending $35,000 to “be hooked up to an already existing computer system, in no way,
would even come close to such a stupid quote.” Then please enlighten us about the $35,000 expenditure of our money to do just that. – Pat Horn

City honors champion cup stacker By ROBERT WHALE rwhale@auburn-reporter.com
Hands grasp stacking cups then vanish in a fuzz of speed, leaving little but the clicking of plastic on plastic to hint at what the hands are doing. Then, a beat later, like a starship coming back from some funky space warp, the hands reappear. And there are the cups, in neat, new stacks. Ooohs and awes. In front of a recent Auburn City Council and audience thoroughly impressed by John Ansotigue’s dazzling show of speed, dexterity and hand-eye coordination, Mayor Pete Lewis named Ansotigue a recipient of Auburn’s “More Than You Imagined” award. The award honors Ansotigue, an Evergreen Heights Elementary School music and P.E. teacher, for the world sports stacking championship he won in Orlando, Fla., April 6-7. Stackers from 16 nations came together for the annual grand event, vying for the

fastest times stacking and unstacking special plastic cups – special holes allow air to flow through them – into various patterns. Ansotigue also set a world record in the 3-6-3 team-timed relay, finishing first in the 3-3-3, second in the 3-6-3, and first in the cycle events for his age division. Ansotigue, who organizes local sport stacking events, had hosted nine years of competitions and taken part in the world championships for just as long, but had never before competed. It was just a matter of finding his niche. “The 45- to 59-year-olds are very quick, I don’t even stand a chance,” Ansotigue said. “But I dropped into the 60 seniors, and as a
61-year-old senior citizen I competed against that age bracket, and I did win three world championships, with the world record included in that. My goal is to keep it going and to showcase Auburn to the world.” Ansotigue went on to thank the Auburn School District for its support. Such remarkable support, he said, that cup stackers talk about it throughout the world. Ansotigue wasn’t Auburn’s only cup stacker to do the city proud. Competing for Team USA was Dick Scobee Elementary fifth-grader Gabby Rivera. The world record holder in the 9-10 age division, Rivera finished second in the 11-12 female full-cycle competition with a 7.609-second time. She was fifth in the 3-6-3 stack event with a time of 2.742 and eighth in the 3-3-3 stack, with a 3.458 clocking. Joshua Kutz took a pair of first-place finishes, grabbing gold in the head-tohead 3-6-3 and cycle relay competitions. Ezekial McDowell was fourth in the 15-16 male 3-6-3 team-timed relay with a 16.835. Daniel Kutz was first in the 35-and-older, team-timed 3-6-3 relay with a 22.752. more story online…

www.auburn-reporter.com [ GRCC from page 1 ] GRCC’s instructional council and faculty spokesman. Administrators respond that the unhappiness comes from a lack of communication with an administration that is doing its best to respond to tough economic times and sharp state budget cuts. “Both sides are to blame for the lack of communication,” said Vickie Sheehan executive director of college relations. “The faculty have some legitimate concerns they want to discuss. But we need to know from our perspective exactly what the issues are. We know shared governance is an issue, but what does that mean? It’s a broad statement.” Ely and Vice President of Instruction Derek Brandes were to have met Thursday with division chairs to have what Ely called after the vote, “a courageous conversation,” about shared governance and other hotbutton topics. It is the first of what Sheehan expects will be many such meetings.
“The problems aren’t going to get resolved in one meeting at all, but that’s our first step,” Sheehan said. Under the college’s traditional academic model, all credit classes – that is, the classes that transfer, award certificates, etc. – have been through a division, and every division has been under the instructional council. The English Division, for example, has rigorous prerequisites because its instructors know what it takes to succeed in a college writing class, Galmish said. If students lack command of basic English, he said, they are not going to succeed, they will take a class two or three times or fail and simply leave. “We’ve got a replacement model that’s being pushed in – it’s not unique here, it’s all over the country – where the student is no longer in a relationship with faculty or the school as a consultant with a professional, but as ‘a customer.’ We were told directly about two years ago: ‘If a customer goes to

McDonald’s and they don’t like the product or the service, they’ll go to Burger King.’” The problem with the “student as customer” business model, Galmish continued, is the grading: if a faculty member doesn’t give a student the grade that he or she wants, or doesn’t allow the student to take the classes that he or she wants, the student will go to another community college. That, Galmish, puts unfair pressure on the faculty.
“You can’t just sell a grade,” Galmish said. “I can’t show you a document where they say to do it, but that’s the pressure everybody is under, and the way the movement is going at the college is to bypass questions of prerequisites. Administration talks about customers, about prerequisites as being ‘a pinch point in the pipeline,’ and ‘we’ve gotta keep the pipeline open.’ We feel that they’ve been setting up models that bypass the entire instruc-
tional council. “Since President Ely came on in 2009, 12 people have been dismissed or fired and replaced by people with a strong business model,” Galmish said. “We see the administration not respecting the traditional academic model and taking away those questions and trying to run this as a business.” Galmish said the financial model simply doesn’t fit GRCC’s academic environment. “As an academic model,
it causes all kinds of terrible friction … Look, we know that Olympia is not giving the money to the colleges that it used to. We know there has to be an entrepreneurial unit at every college now, and that we have to make a certain amount of money.” Ultimately, Galmish said, the financial pressure is coming not from GRCC’s administration but from lawmakers in Olympia.

All-American nod for Stephanie Bluhm Auburn Mountainview grad wraps up collegiate rowing career at WWU

zone, working hard and training.” Although gifted athletically, Bluhm said a few of the technical aspects of rowing did take time to master. “The hardest was probably how to keep the boat set,” she said. “When you’re in the boat you want to keep the oar handles at the same height as every other one, otherwise, it will tip to one side and rock. Besides that, feathering the oar was new. That’s when you have to turn the blade from parallel to perpendicular when you put it in the water. But I grabbed that pretty quick.” She soon found herself rowing in the nationals in the school’s fourperson varsity boat.
At the Unified Karate Academy they believe in doing things old school. “It’s just traditional training, lots of the basics,” Sensei James Penor said. “The kids like to learn though.” For Penor and the athletes he trains in karate classes held at Green River Community College and at the Auburn Dojo at Rainier Middle School, the basics have paid off. Penor’s students took home an astounding 25 trophies, including the 5-foot Grand Champion Kata (forms) trophy won by black belt Charles Nguyen, at the 40th annual Shorinryu Open at Mill Creek Middle School in Kent last week. From the Green River class, Nhan Huynh finished first in kata and kumite (sparring), as did Christina Woody. Kelsie Hesseltine was second in her division in both disciplines, and Cassandra Houghton and

It didn’t take Stephanie Bluhm long to reach the pinnacle of her sport. Less than a year after getting her first taste of competitive rowing as a freshman on the Western Washington University women’s crew program, the Auburn Mountainview graduate found herself standing atop the podium as a member of the 2010 NCAA Division II Viking rowing championship squad. “It was very exciting,” she said. “I’m not sure I knew how big of a deal it was at the time. I knew we had a good team, but I realize now how special it was looking back.” This past weekend Bluhm capped her collegiate career at the 12th annual NCAA Division II Championships at Eagle Creek Park in Indiana. Bluhm and the rest of the Viking team finished third. “It’s not the result we wanted, but I’m not disappointed in the team,” Bluhm said. “The other boats in the field were really fast this year. It’s actually really exciting to see all the other schools getting faster and watching them rise up to a higher level.” Rising to a higher level is some-

After graduating in 2009 and heading to Bellingham to start school, she said her mother tipped her off about the Lady Vikings’ successful rowing team. Stephanie Bluhm “My mom actually let me know Western had a pretty good crew program,” Bluhm said. “I was tall, athletic and had good arms, so I tried out. I’m pretty well rounded athleticwise; it wasn’t out of my comfort

[ bluhm from page 10 ] Bluhm continued to excel as a rower, advancing to the varsity-eight boat as a sophomore and again winning a national title for the Vikings. As a junior she was selected as a team captain and helped lead the Vikings to a second-place finish at the nationals. As a senior Bluhm was again chosen as a team captain and earned the position of stroke on the school’s varsity eight. Usu-

kids you have no idea what’s inside of them, and then they do so well at tourna-
ments. It’s surprising to see what they have inside of them.”
Penor, who was trained by legendary martial artist Takayuki Kubota, said he believes the lessons learned by his student’s participation in karate will help them in other aspects of their life. “Tournaments are just winning trophies and medals for that day,” he said. “Hopefully karate will help them in other parts of their lives.”
ally bestowed to the most technically sound rower, the stroke sets the rhythm of the boat. “I was responsible for setting the pace of the boat,” she said. Her efforts this year in the boat earned her a nod as a first-team Collegiate Rowing Coaches Association Division II Pocock All-American and a selection to the Northwest Collegiate Rowing Conference All-Star team. Although her collegiate athletic eligibility is now
gone, Bluhm said she’ll stay on at WWU to complete her degree in kinesthesiology. She plans to become a personal trainer after graduating next year. “I’m sure I’m going to miss (rowing) but I’m kind of looking forward to focusing on school next year,” Bluhm said. “It’s hard to put your whole heart in school when you’re doing 40 hours a week training as an athlete. It’s a very mentally exhausting sport. It will be nice to take some time
off. I look at it as more a welcome break. I will miss it and I’ve always been an athlete, so I’ll find other things to take the place of rowing.” And she hasn’t ruled out possibly coaching the sport sometime in the future. “I haven’t really looked into it, but there are tons of rowing clubs all over in Seattle and Bellingham,” she said. “If I ever did that, I think it would be in the future. I’ll just have to wait and see.”

The Rainier Plateau Junior Rugby club is offering a summer Rugby Sevens program for boys and girls. Open to participants ages 15-18, the program will practice throughout the month of June to prepare for a series of local Saturday
tournament in July. Rugby Sevens is a scaled down version of the 15 player version of the sport and will be featured in the Rio 2016 Olympic games. The program costs $55 per player and is open to Auburn-area athletes. For more information contact Coach Andy Ramsay at a.s.ramsay@comcast.com or call 253-330-6816.
Beverly Doxon of Bellevue passed away suddenly, but peacefully, at Overlake Hospital on February 5, 2013, with her daughter, Tori, by her side. She was born Beverly Ann Davidson on June 26, 1925, in Hoquiam, WA, to Tory and Martha Davidson. Growing up in Auburn and spending summers on Anderson Island, she graduated from Auburn High School in 1943 and then attended Whitman College. In 1945 she married LeRoy (Ole) Olson. The couple resided in Auburn until 1957 when they moved to Mercer Island, and later to Bellevue in 1974. Beverly and Ole remained close to many friends in Auburn throughout their lives. Ole died in 1995 just months before their 50th Wedding Anniversary. In 2001, Beverly married Myron Doxon, a longtime family friend. He has resided at Emeritus Memory Care Center in Bellevue since 2011. Beverly is fondly remembered by residents of Mercer Island where, for almost 40 years, she was a friendly face at Look’s Pharmacy. She worked there continuously from 1961 and retired when the store closed. Friends and family would agree that Beverly was youthful in spirit, and in her attitude and actions for all of her 87 years on earth. Her love for her family and her constant smile and laughter live on in their hearts. Beverly is survived by her husband, Myron Doxon; her daughter, Tori Olson (Bellevue, WA); her granddaughter, Amanda Steinvall (Eugene, OR); Amanda’s sister, Charmaine Steinvall (Maple Valley, WA) and their father, Gary Steinvall (Newcastle, WA). Private services are pending. Beverly’s wish was to be cremated and her ashes scattered at Cannon Beach, OR, her favorite place in the world. Her family will honor those wishes later this summer. She would be touched if remembrances by friends be made to their favorite charity in her name. Memories of Beverly may be shared and photos viewed at the Sunset Hills Funeral Home website: www.sunsethillsfuneralhome.com. For information, contact: Tori Olson@ 206-909-0149. 798754
