Student Groups

Cooper Point Journal organization members commit their efforts to two primary purposes: compiling submissions from students at large to create a newspaper that focuses on and reflects the student citizens of The Evergreen State College and examines how matters, particularly within the college, affect and involve students. The newspaper - also named Cooper Point Journal - serves as a medium for informing and entertaining students and as a forum for the ideas and opinions of students and others.The learning laboratory aspect of the CPJ organization manifests itself by developing and maintaining effective and responsible managing of operations and finances of an endeavor (newspaper) organization, as well as dealing with such life challenges as organizing efforts to develop and maintain an inclusive organization, establishing a group culture of inclusive and responsible decision making, personal and collective accountability, leadership that focuses of fulfilling organization goals and objectives by fostering an environment of consensus and cooperation rather than focusing on the decision-making authority and responsibilities of leadership, confronting injustice and discrimination.

The Evergreen Classic Club was created to foster an extracurricular interest for and discussion about the ancient Mediterranean world. We aim to make our members excited about the Classics and provide an area for people to come together and freely participate in scholarly discourse of ancient events, texts, and arts, as well as share creative works inspired by the Classical world. The goal is to make this a more fun and loose experience than a classroom environment for those that enjoy the Classics. No prior knowledge of the ancient world is necessary and everyone is welcome to join and learn.

The Evergreen Furry Club seeks to create a supportive and friendly environment to foster the local furry/anthropomorphic community.

The Herbal Medicine Club strives to provide herbal medicine materials, resources, and education to students and community members while supporting efforts to decolonize and decentralize herbal medicine. We can do so by uplifting local community herbalists and medicine projects as we learn together how to utilize herbal medicine as a tool to connect to and build relationships with plants, each other, our bodies, and place.
