Man Files Initiative to Give Evergreen State College a More Accurate Name

Man Files Initiative to Give Evergreen State College a More Accurate Name

This is hilarious. Especially because it’s so spot on.

The Olympian reports:

He wants ‘to highlight just how ridiculous things are getting’ at Evergreen, suggests new name

An Olympia man has filed a proposed initiative to the Legislature to rename The Evergreen State College “The Evergreen State Social Justice Warrior PC Indoctrination Compound.”

Open government activist Arthur West filed Initiative Measure 953 on July 5, according to a bill request posted by the Secretary of State’s Office. Its title is “Rationalization of Higher Education.”

West has made a career of challenging governments in public meeting and public records cases. Last September, he lost an appeal of a public records lawsuit against Evergreen, in which he alleged the college withheld records from him and “improperly used police power” to keep him off campus in May 2010.

But he’s had success, too. In March, West won $15,000 in a lawsuit over city of Puyallup and the Open Meetings Act. He said he also recently won $43,800 in a public records case against the city of Tacoma.
