Experience Evergreen State College for yourself

Rather then reading articles filled with inflammatory misinformation, I have experienced first hand the incredible work The Evergreen State College has accomplished in our community.

Its undergraduate program and graduate program in public policy have educated countless professionals who have become our governmental leaders. The masters in teaching program has brought new talent into our schools. The interdisciplinary environmental programs have helped our struggling Puget Sound. The Center for Community Based Learning and Actions has connected hundreds of students with nonprofits in our community, adding a necessary link between learning, community service and action.

My son and his wife, both paramedic firefighters, have recently enrolled at TESC and have raved about their program.

Please, experience Evergreen, a rare diamond, benefiting all who take part.

(1982 graduate)
