THE MAGAZINE for Eastern Washington University Alumni and Friends

Dear Alumni and Friends,The start of a new school year always brings something new, and there are many visible changes around the Eastern Washington University campus this fall as one major project takes shape and another just begins.

It has now been two years since we broke ground on the renovation of Patterson Hall, the main academic building where you likely spent much of your time while on campus. After being completely gutted, the structure is starting to resemble the state-of-the-art academic building we envisioned. There is still work to do though, as construction should be completed by winter 2014.

Just last spring, we also broke ground on the fi rst new campus residence hall in nearly 40 years. The facility is being built on the northwest side of campus, across from the University Recreation Center at 10th and Cedar. The 109,000 square-foot building will house up to 354 students and will serve as the hub of the residential district.

When it opens next fall, the hall will have top-notch amenities, including a great room with a gas fi replace, full kitchens on every fl oor, study areas with natural lighting, wireless access throughout and even hi-tech laundry machines that communicate with students’ cell phones.

Throw in the new video scoreboard at Roos Field and some of the new directional signage around campus, and little old Eastern is looking pretty strong after 130 years – all while maintaining our historic, yet charming campus feel.

These infrastructure upgrades are vital if EWU wants to maintain its standard of excellence in education. With a record freshman class on campus and our 12,000 students overall, updated facilities are critical to our success.

If you get the chance, drop by campus for a visit and see some of these changes for yourself. I’m sure you’ll be pleased to see how far your alma mater has come.

Sincerely, Dr. Rodolfo ArévaloPresident

Thanks for the MemoriesI would like to compliment you on the fi ne article you wrote about William “Bud” Kirkwood and his roommate in the “In Memoriam” section of the spring 2012 issue of the Eastern Magazine. When I submitted the picture of Bud I wasn’t expecting a full-page article. So, I was pleasantly surprised and very impressed by the in-depth coverage and research you did to provide such a delightful story. On behalf of the Kirkwood family, thank you very much! I know it will mean so much to my aunt and to three of his grandchildren, his brother and other extended family members (who are EWU alums) to open up their magazine and see this article.

With appreciation,’99, ’91 Diane Somerday, MSW, Coordinator, Graduate/Undergraduate Studies

Reid Meditation Garden“Mary Pat” is one of four bronze statues in the Reid Meditation Garden, located on campus near the one-room schoolhouse. The garden’s theme is “roots from the past and wings to the future.” It recognizes more than 100 years of service by former Reid School faculty and staff, as well as the countless students and future teachers who chose to learn at the EWU Campus Lab School. The concept for the garden was developed and funded by the Reid Lab School Remembrance Committee.

Hall of Fame Inductees HonoredFour individuals and the 1997 football team were inducted into the 12th Class of Eastern Athletics Hall of Fame in ceremonies on campus, Oct. 6, 2012. ’74 Scott Garske, an unstoppable football player for Eastern in the early ‘70s, was inducted. A Spokane native who played for North Central High School, Garske parlayed his success at Eastern into becoming a seventh-round draft pick by the Pittsburgh Steelers in 1974. An ankle injury cut his professional career short. Garske’s son Griffi n, a backup quarterback, was also inducted this year with the 1997 EWU team.

The 1997 football team was inducted to the Hall of Fame on the 15th anniversary of its playoff run. After winning the Big Sky Conference title outright by fi nishing the season with a 12-2 record, the team advanced to the semifi nals of the NCAA Football Championship Subdivision Playoffs (then known as I-AA).

’87 Don Kallem, who spent 17 seasons as Eastern’s golf coach and 13 as an assistant football coach, was inducted posthumously. His golf teams won eight NAIA District titles and advanced to the NAIA Championships nine times. A three-time district coach of the year, he spent 31 years in the Eastern physical education department. Kallem died July 10, 1997.

The EWU Athletics Hall of Fame Service and Contribution Award was presented to Eastern alumnus ’70 Jon Heimbigner for his contribution to the sports community in the Inland Northwest. Already a member of four halls of fame, he has served for more than 30 years with four different organizations, as well as serving on the EWU Athletics Hall of Fame committee since its inception in 1996. He stepped down recently as a board member for the Spokane Regional Sports Commission after 34 years of service.

Record-breaking sprinter ’96 Joyce Rainwater Blount was inducted after a remarkable career in which she won eight Big Sky Conference titles and appeared in the NCAA Division I Championships twice. She still owns four school records and three conference marks after a career from 1990-95.

This year’s inductees bring the total number of individuals in the Hall of Fame to 61. Nine teams have also been inducted.

Veterans Resource Center OpensEWU offi cially opened its new Veterans Resource Center in July as part of its goal to ensure that the university meets the needs of the thousands of service men and women returning home from Iraq and Afghanistan. There are currently more than 500 veterans enrolled at EWU, and the university expects to see a 10-percent increase annually in the number of veterans seeking college degrees and utilizing GI benefi ts as the draw-down of deployed troops continues over the next few years.Eastern President Rodolfo Arévalo welcomed university leaders and community supporters at the opening reception of the 2,000 square-foot center located on the fi rst fl oor of Showalter Hall. The center includes a lounge, kitchen area, computer lab and conference space, as well as offi ce space for support staff.

Lt. Col. (Retired), David Millet is the director of the center. He has more than 25 years of success in leadership and management positions within the U.S. Army and at Eastern. In addition to Millet, staffi ng includes a recruiter/advisor, a GI-benefi ts coordinator, graduate assistants, a VetCorps representative and faculty liaisons.

The center is also developing an online presence to reach individuals even while they are still on active duty. If you are interested in making a donation of any size to the Veterans Resource Center, please contact Dave Millet, 509.359.2461, or [email protected].

First Class of Mechanical Engineering Students GraduateDuring the 2012 Commencement ceremonies held in June, Eastern awarded diplomas to eight students who have the distinction of being the fi rst graduates to earn degrees in mechanical engineering. The mechanical engineering curriculum, first offered in the fall quarter of 2009, builds on concepts studied in physics, math and the sciences. The ME graduates refl ect Eastern’s commitment to science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) education. Such STEM-related fi elds are considered to be a driving force in economic recovery and global competitiveness, which is why the state has directed higher education institutions to expand enrollment in STEM programs.

In addition to the mechanical engineering degree, Eastern also offers a degree in electrical engineering, making it unique among the regional universities in the state of Washington.

EWU Scores at HoopfestEWU Athletics, Admissions and Marketing & Communications, sponsored a display in downtown Spokane during Hoopfest 2012 last June. Hundreds of thousands of people were able to pick up EWU giveaways and admissions information. EWU athletes were on hand to greet the crowd and provide autographs.Additionally, the FIRST Robotics group was there to promote their exhibition in Riverfront Park. The basketball playing robots, featured at the Regional FIRST Robotics event on the Cheney campus in April, were on display, and it was a great opportunity for local high school students to showcase their engineering skills while EWU demonstrated its commitment to STEM education. The robotics court drew lots of attention from the thousands gathered downtown for the largest 3-on-3 outdoor basketball tournament in the world.

Save the date – the Regional FIRST Robotics Competition is April 3-6, 2013, at Reese Pavilion.

Never Miss a PlayFollowing the momentum created with the installation of red synthetic turf at Roos Field and the 2010 National Championship, EWU has replaced its 23-year-old football fi eld scoreboard with a new video scoreboard that will enhance the game-day experience for fans. In addition, Reese Court in the Pavilion will see a new video board added to the existing scoreboard. The project is fi nanced by the EWU Foundation and will not include any taxpayer or non-designated donor dollars. The primary source of funding will come from advertising revenue generated by the scoreboards, which will also produce revenue for scholarships.

“The EWU Foundation is excited to invest in an opportunity that fulfi lls a university need while creating a mechanism to generate scholarship support,” said Michael Westfall, executive director of the EWU Foundation, the non-profi t corporation which will take the leading role in managing this project.

Installed in 1989, when the majority of Eastern football games returned to campus, the old scoreboard tracked 112 EWU contests, as well as numerous high school football games and track meets. “The ability to move our game-day environment into the video age is tremendously important,” said EWU Athletic Director Bill Chaves. “There is no doubt that fans in the 21st century expect quality video capabilities at games, but almost, if not more important, is the ability for the university to have a platform to tell ‘Eastern’s story’ in a compelling way at home games.”

FORGET THE ROSE, GIVE HIM A DOLLAR BY KANDI CARPER ‘05


I couldn’t sleep the night before my interview with Doug Clerget, a fi nalist on ABC’s reality series The Bachelorette. Millions of questions were swirling through my head. Why would someone share their innermost thoughts on a reality TV show? Couldn’t a good-looking guy like Doug get a date without going on The Bachelorette? Is the show scripted? Did he get paid? I’ve interviewed well-known people before, but none of them made me feel like a 16-year-old groupie.

Doug is a 33-year-old single dad who lives in Seattle with his 12-year-old son Austin. Rumors of his appearance on The Bachelorette began to surface in early spring. The fact that he’s an EWU alumnus (’00, BA fi nance) gave me a good reason to watch the show, and a great excuse to contact him for an interview.

For those who don’t follow the show, here’s how it works. The bachelorette meets a pool of 25 eligible suitors from which she ultimately selects a potential fi ancé. The contestants go on exotic dates with her, where they get to know each other. At the end of each episode, those still in the running receive a rose from her; those who don’t are eliminated and sent home.

Doug was selected to appear on the show after one of his coworkers submitted his name.

When ABC called me I thought it was a joke,” said Doug. “But they called back and asked me to fly down to Los Angeles.After an interview and some photos he was chosen for this once-in-a-lifetime adventure. Although he’s well-traveled, the show took him to places he hadn’t visited before –Dubrovnik in Croatia, Prague in the Czech Republic and London.

In early July, Doug and I met for coffee in downtown Spokane. I wasn’t sure how much he was allowed to say about the show since it hadn’t yet concluded. Was he contractually sworn to silence, locked up tighter than a Tom Cruise-Katie Holmes divorce settlement? Thankfully, no, he’d tell me anything I wanted to know.

All eyes immediately focused on Doug when he walked into Starbucks that day.

FORGET THE ROSE, GIVE HIM A DOLLAR

Within a few minutes young women were approaching us, asking to have photos taken with him. Someone named Shannon gave him her phone number. That answered one of my questions; he defi nitely doesn’t need any help getting dates.

During the first episode of The Bachelorette, which aired in May, Doug was given a rose for making the best fi rst impression. He stayed on the show through episode seven, making it into the top six.

He and bachelorette Emily Maynard were spending some one-on-one time in Prague when he was unceremoniously dismissed following what he describes as the “most awkward kiss – EVER” in front of eight million viewers.

There was a bit of miscommunication during the couple’s fi rst, and only, kiss on national TV. “I’m thinking she’s giving me that ‘hey, you’re going to have to show me you’re interested sign,’ and she was actually giving me the ‘you’ve got to go’ speech,” said Doug. “My girl-radar is completely off.”

“I’ve never been the fi rst one to make a move,” said Doug. “I had no idea what was going on with the other guys. I’m just not that aggressive.”

He thinks maybe that’s because he doesn’t date a lot. Balancing his time as a single parent and working long hours as a commercial Realtor doesn’t leave much free time.

Even though he didn’t get that fi nal rose, he has no regrets. “I had a great time and I wouldn’t have done anything differently,” said Doug. “I think I stayed true to who I am. Emily was a sweetheart but I’m just old-fashioned in dating and I think that the right girl for me will appreciate my approach to things.”

MORE THAN A PRETTY FACEDoug will continue to sell real estate, but 99.9 percent of his time is currently devoted to Dollar Per Month (DPM) – a non-profi t organization he founded with his cousin, 37-year-old Jason Clerget, an ’07 graduate and former EWU student body president.

While Doug said that his reason for appearing on The Bachelorette was to “see about a girl,” Jason thought it would be a great experience for his cousin, as well as bringing increased attention to DPM. “I encouraged him to do the show,” said Jason, who joined us for coffee. “I told him: ‘When you’re 50 you’ll look back and be glad you had this opportunity.’”

Jason and Doug founded DPM in January 2012. Since then, they’ve gained more than 1,000 members and have donated thousands of dollars to more than a dozen charitable organizations.

There’s no question that Doug’s time on The Bachelorette has been good for DPM. It’s defi nitely a conversation starter and it’s created interest. “I’ve been working my Twitter account for years and I’ve got about 100 followers,” said Jason. “Doug just started his Twitter account and he’s got 5,000 followers. Every third time he’s Tweeting about something like ‘going to the grocery store,’ he’ll talk about Dollar Per Month, so it’s great for us.”

The concept of DPM is simple. People donate a small amount – the average is about $8 per month, but can be anywhere from $1 to $1 million – to DPM, which researches and selects three reputable and responsible charitable organizations that members vote on each month. The top vote getter receives 50 percent of the raised funds; second place gets 30 percent and third, 20 percent. Everyone wins.

THE INSPIRATION FOR DPMDuring our interview Doug pulled a black-and-white photo from his wallet. It’s of his grandpa, also named Doug Clerget. “Look at him,” said Doug, who was raised by his grandparents. “He’s a larger-than-life kind of guy, like Paul Bunyan.”

His grandfather passed away earlier this year, but he made quite an impression on both Doug and Jason. “Grandpa’s motto was, ‘just take what you need and give the rest away,’” said Doug. “We wanted to do something that was bigger than ourselves. Most charities are top-down, looking for that million-dollar donor. We thought ‘why don’t we do charity differently?’ What if everyone just gave a couple dollars a month, but you took that money and you focused it on organizations that were actually making a difference.”

Jason explains, “People think, ‘how am I going to stop people from starving with the little money and time that I have?’ It’s easier to tune it out. We show people how it can work by tying it to social

media and crowdsourcing. When you get 3,000 people donating a buck it doesn’t create an impact in anyone’s life other than the charity. Dig your change out of the couch, truck, fi nd a buck. We started pushing it through Facebook and Twitter and making those comparisons of minimum sacrifi ce, maximum benefi t. For the price of a movie ticket each year, you can help end starvation. It’s started to click for people.”

Administrative costs for non-profi ts typically run 25-29 percent. DPM’s goal is to operate at 5-10 percent of every dollar collected – right now they operate at a negative 20 percent. “We fund it out of pocket,” said Jason. “You can see from the support we’ve gotten that it’s worth doing.”

Doug and Jason complement each other in their work for Dollar Per Month.

Eastern did a great job preparing us for this,” said Jason. “Doug was an econ/fi nance guy who studied under Tom Trulove and I was in marketing/design. What we do is directly correlated to our degrees at Eastern.”

In addition to his work on DPM, Jason runs two other businesses. He recently re-acquired The Basement, a popular nightclub in Cheney, and he is a principal owner of Propaganda Creative, a full-service social media marketing company.

Jason and Doug have done the math and have huge aspirations for DPM. Their goal is to raise $10 million a month for charity, which seems like a large number for a small philanthropic organization. But, when you consider that there are more than 900 million Facebook users, the number becomes obtainable. “We’re looking for just over 1 percent of Facebook users to join up,” Jason said. “I see an online community that is educated and empowered to make the world a better place for as little as a dollar per month.”

And after his successful run on The Bachelorette, Doug already has a relationship with 8 million viewers.

By Kandi Carper ‘05 Moises Iñiguez’s 30-plus family members cheered as he crossed the stage to receive his diploma at Eastern’s commencement on June 16, 2012. He is the youngest of Santiago Iñiguez and Guadalupe Rodriguez’s 11 children, and the 11th to earn a four-year college degree. He’s the sixth in his family to graduate from Eastern.

and Erlinda

Sending 11 children to college is an amazing accomplishment for any family – but a dream come true for a family whose parents came to this country from Mexico as impoverished farm-workers with no formal education.

The family was easy to spot in their matching T-shirts with the Iñiguez family crest and the words “Juntos abrimos la puerta” (together we open the door). The door to a better life that was opened by personal sacrifi ce, hard work, high expectations and love for one another.

When Moises talked about his large family in a recent interview he took a piece of paper and drew a diagram. There are the fi ve eldest siblings, all Eastern graduates: Uriel, Pedro, Martina, Erlinda and Alexia; the middle group: Ricardo, José, Emilio and Simon, followed by the two youngest, Jesus and Moises.

“We all have very different experiences,” said Moises. The older siblings, now in their forties, had a typical fi rst-generation immigrant life, and worked Washington’s potato and fruit farms. During the school year, their education took precedence over work. “It would have been easy to have the children work more to get ahead, especially when you’re lower on the economic ladder,” said Moises.

The family was taught that they could achieve anything if they worked hard and studied.

Our father had a vision and understood the importance of education. He always said ‘people can take away your possessions, but they will never be able to take your education, that will be yours forever.

The EWU alumni include: ’88 Uriel, (BA business) executive director of the Washington State Commission on Hispanic Affairs; ’89 Pedro, (BS biology) owner of several physical therapy businesses; ’90, ’89 Martina, (BA international affairs and BA business administration) high school counselor; ’91 Erlinda, (BA business) elementary school teacher; ’94 Alexia, (BA urban and regional planning) project planner for an engineering fi rm and ’12 Moises, (BA education) who started student teaching at a high school this fall.

The fi ve brothers who chose Central Washington University include: Emilio, supervisor in the Juvenile Rehabilitation Administration; Ricardo, vice principal at a high school; José, who fi nished his degree at University of Phoenix and works as a local marketer in a travel company, Simon, a social worker, and Jesus, who has started medical school at Dartmouth this fall.

In addition to their undergraduate degrees, fi ve of the Iñiguez siblings have master’s degrees, and that number continues to grow.

This fall, the torch of educational achievement has been passed to the second generation of the Iñiguez family. Uriel’s eldest son Gabe will study business at Eastern. He’s even moving into Moises’ old apartment.

The Speech

During the week leading up to graduation, Moises studied for his fi nal exams and worked on the speech he prepared for the graduation party he hosted for his family. He seemed more nervous about the speech than his fi nals.

The party took place in Monroe Hall on campus. The music was provided by brothers Jesus and José, with a special performance by the family patriarch Santiago. The family shared a meal, laughed, cried and documented the day with photos.

The 22-year-old “baby” of the family, Moises fi nally took the fl oor and began

his speech, “My story is not one of individual achievement and neither is this day,” he said. “However, now that I have your attention, which I have been trying to do since I was in sixth grade, I might as well take this time to talk about myself, so get comfortable.”

Moises recalled the dark place he was in before he entered junior high. At the time, he and his brother Jesus lived with their parents in Las Vegas, where his mother worked long hours as a hotel maid. They’d been there for three years and things weren’t going well. When his mother was seriously injured in a mugging the family knew they needed to make some changes.

“I had fallen behind in all areas of my academic studies, reading two years below my grade level and having no sense of discipline,” said Moises. “That all changed when my sister Martina brought us back to Washington. She decided that Vegas was not a good place to raise children without family support.”

The decision to move them back was made and supported by everyone in the family. Sister Alexia provided the fi nancial help for Martina, her two youngest brothers and her mother to move into a new house in Puyallup, Wash. Raising two teen-aged boys wouldn’t be easy for Martina, even with her experience as a school counselor.

Moises explained the family dynamics, “Martina was not alone in this task for when I made a mistake, I was lectured by the entire family, at every family function. Sometimes, if we were acting out, we would have ‘surprise visits.’ Some days it would be Alexia or Erlinda, and if we were really lucky, it would be Uriel coming to

straighten us out. Upon refl ection, I realized that my family had laid the expectations of each other a long time before my arrival in Puyallup.

“Expectations - I was expected to be respectful to everyone, not just our family, to get good grades and stay out of trouble. Martina took the grades part seriously. By high school, she had broken me down and I was on the path toward college.”Moises had a decision to make. Would he follow his fi ve eldest siblings and choose Eastern or attend Central Washington University like his last fi ve brothers?

Before making his decision he visited the Eastern campus, where he met Carlos Maldonado, PhD, the director of the Chicano Education Program at the time, who passed away in 2008.

“Meeting Dr. Maldonado helped seal my decision to attend Eastern that fall,” said Moises. “He greeted me with a big hug and assured me that I’d be taken care of at Eastern.”

But when the time came to choose a college, Moises began to doubt himself. He told his sister Martina that he was scared to go to a four-year college and asked her to let him go to community college instead. Martina wouldn’t hear of it. “She looked at me and told me that I was going to have

to move out,” Moises said later. “She told me that a four-year college experience is something that you can’t get anywhere else. It’s where you fi nd yourself and fi nd out what you want to do with your life and she was right.”

Martina spoke from personal experience. As the eldest daughter growing up in a very traditional Mexican-American family, going to college wasn’t the cultural norm, even in the 1980s. Her experience in life would be very different from her mother’s. “When I graduated from high school, I had this idea in my head that my goal as a female was to have kids and a husband,” said Martina. “I learned that’s not everything. That’s a choice but it didn’t defi ne me as a person. Going to college I learned more about myself and what I wanted in life. I learned how others lived and interacted.”

Because Martina and Alexia don’t have children, they have been able to provide fi nancial help for their youngest brothers. It was a collaborative effort that included Alexia’s partner Jay Grubb. “We were in the position to do that,” said Martina. “We didn’t want them to go through what we had to go through being poor. We wanted them to feel like equals to everyone else.”

When Moises was having trouble with his studies, Alexia paid for tutoring. She had also heard that piano lessons helped improve reading skills, so she paid those as well. The end result was that Moises graduated from EWU cum laude – with honors.

But the Iñiguez family provides educational assistance to more than just their family members. In 2007, the siblings established the Iñiguez Family Scholarship at Eastern. The scholarship is awarded in appreciation and gratitude to their parents and to the EWU Chicano Education Program. The scholarship is bestowed upon students who are of Mexican heritage, who have good grades and are involved in extra-curricular activities at school and in their community.

Moises speech to his family ended as it began, with

gratitude, “My story embodies what this family is about. We have stuck with each other through the good, but especially the bad. With my graduation we have put another brick in our wall of success. This is our legacy. And this is only the beginning. There is no statistic that can measure us. Where can you fi nd 11 children and 11 graduates from parents who had never gone to school? I thank all of you for the sacrifi ces you have made for me to be here. Thank you for setting an example for me to follow. I’m proud to join my 10 siblings as a college graduate.”

SHANE HAMLIN

BY BRIAN LYNN

TAKING WASHINGTON VOTERS INTO CYBERSPACE


SHANE HAMLINFor Shane Hamlin ‘97, an interest in government and public service provided an introduction to Eastern. His education and involvement in civil service during his undergrad years have delivered a career packed with capitol-mall experience in Olympia. His latest endeavors have made Washington a national leader in voter registration and education.

During his junior year at Capital High School in Olympia, Hamlin was involved in Boys State, a summer leadership and citizenship program, which Eastern hosted that year.

“I really liked my visit, and knew I wanted to attend a small state school that offered a different experience than the west side,” said Hamlin. I knew Eastern had good programs and I liked the professors and students I met.”

Hamlin majored in government, joined the Sigma Nu fraternity his freshman year – heading up the chapter’s philanthropy efforts – and plunged headfi rst into EWU student-body government.

“Spring quarter of my freshman year I fi lled the student services vacancy on ASEWU. After that I stayed involved, which led to me being chosen for an internship as a liaison for students in Olympia,” said Hamlin, who actually served two terms in the position that requires students to forego studies for a quarter and to work at the capitol. “I lobbied for legislative change for higher ed, and for EWU in particular. I was representing and testifying in committees and to politicians on behalf of students.”

Upon graduating, Hamlin helped direct a non-profi t student lobbying organization, served as an executive assistant to Senator Jim West of Spokane and became a policy analyst on higher education for state and local governments. More recently, he has held multiple positions within the offi ce of the Secretary of State, mostly within the elections department.

During his tenure in Olympia, Hamlin has witnessed two defi ning events in Washington politics: the 2000 Supreme Court ruling that blanket primaries are unconstitutional and the historically close governor’s race of 2004.

“I was in the middle of it all. Election policy and reform became key issues for many sessions,” said Hamlin. In 2010, he became co-director of elections after being appointed by the Secretary of State Sam Reed. Hamlin has quickly thrust Washington into

the 21st century, making the Evergreen State a leader in voter outreach, registration and education.

Using technology and social media, Hamlin has taken voter registration into cyberspace. Washington became the second state to implement online voter registration in 2008 (something Hamlin had a hand in as Assistant Director of Elections), and in July, the fi rst to offer it through a Facebook application.

“Once we learned how the technology worked, we had two goals: to increase voter registration and to help the 3.7 million currently registered voters use the “MyVote” website to be more informed,” Hamlin said. Users can fi nd candidate contact information, ballot drop boxes and they can print a replacement ballot, among other things, on the site.

While the thought of leveraging social media to recruit and engage voters might alarm some people, Hamlin said the process is secure and that Facebook has no part in the procedure other than providing a person’s name and date of birth. In fact, the entire registration and authentication process takes place on Washington state servers; Facebook simply acts as frame around the interface and a portal to the state’s “MyVote” site.

While nearly 600 voters had registered through the Facebook page by late September, and nearly 1,000 had accessed the site for information, Hamlin is already looking forward to more fully developing voter registration. His most recent project is in conjunction with seven other states and the Pew Center that will improve the accuracy and effi ciency of voter registration, as well as tracking and updating voters who relocate within and across state lines.

In 1907, Washington State College beat Cheney State Normal School 46-0, and in 1908, they bested the EWU predecessors 73-0. At the turn of the century, the university catered mostly to women seeking certifi cation in education. The football team topped out at 16 players, many of which were high-school-aged boys from the surrounding rural area; leather helmets and lightly padded pants were the extent of protection and games were played on a grass fi eld.

Fast-forward 104 years, and EWU football features a 94-man roster, state-of-the-art equipment, training facilities and the nation’s only red Sprinturf. The athletes, equipment and fi eld aren’t the only things to change – the pace of the game and scores have too.

The fi rst two contests between the state schools took place just as the forward pass became offi cially permitted. The modern-day matchup featured two teams known throughout the country to incorporate passing-prolifi c offenses. Gone are the days of blowouts; EWU gave the much larger WSU all it could handle in a 24-20 loss. The Eagles bested the Cougars in fi rst downs, passing yards and total offense, while playing them almost even in rushing yards and time of possession and holding WSU scoreless in the second half. If not for a near-record-setting 60-yard fi eld goal by WSU and blocked extra point, EWU might very well have claimed bragging rights for the 21st century.

Washington’s Channeled Scablands Guide John Soennichsen ’97, MFA creative writingThe Mountaineer BooksNo other region in the world contains features like those found in the Channeled Scablands of eastern Washington. In this stunning landscape, deep lakes fi ll the depths of dramatic gorges fl anked by steep walls of towering rock columns, labyrinthine channels and wide tracts of scabby rock that give the region its name. Whether you’re a boater looking for new waterways to explore, a naturalist interested in unique ecosystems, or just a curious traveler – if you’re seeking adventure and intrigue just a little off the beaten path, you’ll fi nd the keys to a whole new world of exploration with Washington’s Channeled Scablands Guide. The guide book features seven regional maps and more than 75 photos. Soennichsen is the author of several books, including the acclaimed Bretz’s Flood, the biography of Harlen Bretz, the fi rst geologist to research the scablands and propose its creation by massive fl ooding. Soennichsen is a member of the Ice Age Floods Institute and lives in Cheney, Wash. mountaineersbooks.org

TributaryBarbara Richardson ’85, MFA creative writingTorrey House PressA fearless portrait of Mormon Utah in the 1870s, this novel tracks the extraordinary life of one woman who dares resist communal salvation in order to fi nd her own. Inspired by the author’s own family history, Tributary is the story of Clair Martin and her feisty and occasionally heartrending struggle with her role in the early Mormon Church. Her stubborn search for identity takes Clair from the confi nes of the Utah Territory, with its polygamy and rigorous conformity, to the chaos of Reconstruction Dixie and back again. Joined by a ragtag bunch of frontier survivors – an exiled Mormon prophet who lives in a cave, a truth-telling black man and a renegade Shoshone medicine woman – Clair fi ghts to put down roots in the borderlands of Zion. Tributary goes above and beyond the historical accuracy demanded of its genre by making itself and its characters relevant and relatable to present-day readers. Richardson writes and designs landscapes in the foothills of the Colorado Rockies. Visit the author’s website: www.barbarakrichardson.com.torreyhouse.com

Narcotraffi ckersMartín Meráz García, ’99, BA government Garcia uses a theoretical and interdisciplinary approach to explain the contemporary war on drugs, addressing what few studies have, which is a bottom-up approach to drug traffi cking. He examines the fi ndings from interviews conducted with drug traffi ckers, law enforcement offi cials, attorneys, judges and other fi gures connected to drug traffi cking. He also relies on court transcripts, court observations, personal letters of drug traffi ckers and informal observations of drug traffi ckers in various social settings. The author also uses theories in international relations, political psychology and criminal justice to explain the reasoning for the allure of new recruits into drug traffi cking organizations. This book focuses on the socioeconomic, psycho-logical, cognitive and political characteristics of indi-viduals who engage in the drug trade, as well as those whose job is to apprehend and prosecute them. Finally, this work looks at the images drug traffi ckers have of U.S. and Mexican law enforcement, as well as the images government offi cials have of drug traffi ckers. Martín Meráz García, PhD, is an assistant professor in EWU’s Chicano Education Department.kendallhunt.com

The Fruits of Their LaborThe Horsley twins, Josh (’10 BA marketing) and Matt (’09 BA interdisciplinary studies) are continuing what their grandfather and father began more than 60 years ago, only with a 21st -century spin.

The Horsley twin’s grandfather, Garretson Horsley, began farming in 1951, in the Lower Yakima Valley. Their father, Loren Horsley, started helping out in the orchard when he was a young boy and, in 1976, he began running the family orchard.

Josh and Matt’s father believed they were capable of lending a helping hand on the orchard and they began learning the family business at age 10. What started as just digging dirt turned into driving tractors and forklifts, pruning and picking, checking irrigation and doing numerous odd jobs around the farm.

After earning their degrees from Eastern, Josh and Matt returned home and created a new family business called “Follow the Harvest.” They act as a direct link between the farmer and the consumer, cutting out the middle man and the lag time of getting the harvested fruit from the farm to the consumer’s fruit bowl. The business delivers boxes of fresh fruit to customers’ homes or offi ces weekly, with a different fruit each week. Their service area includes Yakima and extends to Cheney, Spokane and the Spokane Valley. For more information, visit www.followtheharvest.net.

final thoughts

From Lisa Poplawski, director Alumni AdvancementA great road trip is never complete without pictures to prove you were there.

A new interactive photo booth, complete with game-day props and an LCD screen, will add to your tailgating fun and prove “you were there.” Please join me, fellow alumni and friends this year at the Alumni Association tailgate to record your memories at our photo booth, which is way fancier than the one I made crazy faces in at Woolworth’s in the ‘70s.

Far from the Woolworth’s photo booth of the past, I recently had my photo taken with this famous Seattle icon, which is visited by 1.2 million people a year and stands proudly in the background of family photos across the globe. On a warm August weekend, the Space Needle soared above 180 alumni and friends as we concluded our summer events in Seattle at the King Tut Exhibit inside the Pacifi c Science Center.

From the west side’s famous icon to the most famous icon on the east side of the mountains – the Inferno at Roos Field – it’s time to get excited about EWU Eagles football! Fall football is a great excuse to visit Eastern, and run into friends you thought you may never see again. It’s time to dig out the hand warmers, hats, jackets, wool socks and fuzzy boots and I love it!

Like stadiums across the country, the fun doesn’t start during the fi rst quarter; it starts in the parking lot. While you’re visiting your Alumni Association tailgate, get your “Eag” on with tattoos, pom-poms, a coloring station and spirited beverages for us BIG kids.

Remember to visit the EWU Alumni Association Facebook site and alumni.ewu.edu for ongoing updates on tailgate locations, crazy photos and additional upcoming events.

See you soon! Don’t forget to bring your warm clothes, camera and Eagle pride. Prove you were there!

Stop by the Alumni Association tailgate tent at all home football games (lot P-12) to enjoy a complimentary photo booth, prize drawings and beverages. This is a family-friendly location. Ph
