By JODY RHODES Contributing Writer

What began as an idea to help build leadership has evolved into an event that turns Greek members into a TEAM. TE.A.M., which stands for "Together Everyone Achieves More," held its second annual lead- ership retreat Jan. 30-Feb. I. Members of the WSU Greek sys- tem traveled to Camp Spalding, located north of Spokane, to learn leadership and group skills. The retreat consisted of work- shops and problem-solving games. "TE.A.M. identifies problems in the Greek system and gives people the chance to go back to their chap- ter and apply the skills they've learned to help alleviate those prob- lems," Heath Potter said. Learning those skills comes with a high price tag. The retreat cost nearly $13,000 . and each person paid $55, said Sara PHOTO COURTESY CHRIS COHOON Labberton, panhellenic vice presi- Members of the WSU Greek system board a bus headed back to Pullman from the TEAM retreat at Camp Spalding, located dent of public relations. north of Spokane, over the weekend.

Editor,

. On behalf of the Pullman School Board, Iwant to thank Pullman School District residents for SUPPOI1- ing local schools. Once again. you voted strongly in favor of the reg- ular maintenance and operations levy, which is very important to the operating budget of the district. We are very fortunate to have a community that is so sup- portive of our public schools. With the levy being the only ballot issue, the strong turnout is verification that our residents care about their schools. We will work hard to ensure your schools reflect that care. I also would like to remind you of the Pullman School District annual Stakeholders' meeting Feb. 18 at 7:30 p.m. in the Pullman High School library. This meeting will include a report on the state of the district and goal setting for next year. We hope to see many community members in attendance. These are your public schools. Come learn more about them and give us your input. Again, thank you to Pullman voters.

In your column Feb. 9, you make it sound like the Whites of America only oppress Blacks, Native Americans and homosexuals. Did you forget about the Japanese who lost their land and other property when they were sent to camps during World War II? What about the Chinese who were thrown out of the Pacific Northwest because they were better workers in some jobs than Whites? Did you know that the Irish were oppressed in the 18th and 19thcenturies? You throw out the term "historic" in saying the United States and Americans are to blame for all the problems. Why do you not blame the English, French, Dutch and Portuguese for the problems we face today? Of course, our founding fathers did make sure that people like you can write their opin- ions, even if they are misleading. I know you write opinion columns, but you really need to learn how to do research about things before you write them.

NESPELEM - The executive director of the Colville Confederated Tribes has been fired, three months after he tried to get rid of six of the tribe's eight department heads. Lou Stone, of Inchelium. immediately challenged the firing last week as illegal because the meeting was not presided over by either tribe Chair- man Joe Pakootas or Vice Chairman Doll Watt as required by council bylaws. "The real reason here is that we've got a situation where the tribal council evidently doesn't want a strong administrator to improve opera- tions," Stone said. The turmoil began in November when Stone, newly hired, told the six department heads their contracts would not be renewed. The action was reversed pending a review, but four of the department heads have since left their positions. Two others remain on the job, although their contracts were never renewed. Members of the tribe's Business Council, which voted 7-4 Thursday not to extend Stone's contract past the 90-day probation period, declined to comment. Stone contended that three of the tribal council members who voted had conflicts of interest and should not have voted because their family incomes were directly affected when he did not renew contracts for the department heads.
