‘A collaborative relationship’ CAITLIN K ELLY Staff Writer U.S. Congresswoman Mazie Hirono feels that the next U.S. Senator should be one who shares values with the people of Hawai‘i. After being elected to the House in 2006 and serving on the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee of Transportation and Infrastructure, Hirono is looking to serve Hawai‘i in the U.S. Senate. On Aug. 6, Ka Leo interviewed Hirono about the upcoming election.
COLLABORATIVE LEADERSHIP Hirono’s story of how she came from Japan to America with her mother, who was fleeing from an abusive husband, has been publicized throughout the campaign. Because of her experiences, Hirono feels that she can relate to families who are struggling economically. “I know families are challenged all across our state, all across our country. These are tough economic times, and those are challenges I’ve faced in my own life,” she said. From early on, she believed that working with others would make advocating these issues more effective. “You You can make even more of a difference if you bring a collaborative leadership style to get things done. And I think that is really an important trait for any to leader have,
RIE MIYOSHI / KA LEO O HAWAI‘I
an ability to work with others to get things done.”
C O L L A B O R AT I N G W I T H U H Hirono feels that this collaborative leadership can also apply to affairs with the University of Hawai‘i. “There’s no question that the University of Hawai‘i should be an economic engine for our state,” she explained, “I don’t think that we have fully utilized the talent and resources at the University of Hawai‘i and that’s why I really believe in much more of a collaborative relationship between the university, our business sector, our commercial sector.”
S U S TA I N A B L E E D U C AT I O N She not only applies the term “sustainability” to the economic growth of the university, but also to a successful education system. “It’s not just what you do in college, it’s not just what you do in middle school; it is a continuum. And you start the success process by enabling young people to have a quality early education, and there’s all kinds of evidence to that.” To support this, Hirono is pushing to give more students access to quality education from a young age. “We do not have early education as part of our education mission in the state of Hawai‘i. So I’ve put states’ in bills that would support s efforts in providing universal preexample.” school for example
F I N A L DAYS Hirono has advocated for and more susa “stronger an tainable Hawai Hawai‘i,” and traveled to neighb neighbor islands to spread that message. She remes cently went to Kaua‘i for a rally Ka on sustainability sustainability, with about 500 people in att attendance. “We talk ab about the need for energy and food indea pendence in Hawai‘i and what this eelection means, what the stark choices are, the direction of our country, so that’s co what I’ll be doing.”

‘We have to get things fixed’ CAITLIN K ELLY Staff Writer A desire to leave a better Hawai‘i for generations to come is what fueled former-U.S. House Representative Ed Case to run for a seat in the Senate. In an inter view with Ka L eo on Aug. 2, he discussed the senate race and its impact on the entire generation.
LOOKING AHEAD
A direct leadership style is what Case believes will allow him to get things done in the Senate. “I don’t like to pretend problems don’t exist. I don’t like to avoid challenges; I don’t like to sweep them under the rug. I like to be up front about issues before they really become major problems, so I like to look down the road,” he said. According to Case, because some in Washington wish to pp g cut federal support for higher education, speaking up about its negative ef fects will be es sential. “I think that from a federal level, the biggest challenge is to maintain the priorit y of higher education in what ’s going to be a huge discussion about federal f inances and budget in the next 10 and 20 years. A nd we have to have that dis cussion because ... we’re really messing things up for the next generation right now. We have to get things f ixed.”
where the process needs to begin. “It’s absolutely about our economy – it has to be about our economy, because really, the foundation of our country is people being able to get good jobs so that they can earn money for their families,” he explained. On a national level, Case stated that creating an environment where businesses can sur vive and prosper through reasonable regulations and low taxes would create job opportunities for college graduates. In Hawai‘i, Case believes in utilizing industries that are unique to the state. “Here in Hawai‘i, this is about making sure we take care of industries that really work here, like tourism, like our defense industry,” he explained, “But we also want to work on new industries … and other industries that can really be improved, like agriculture.”
UH AS AN ECONOMIC DRIVER Case believes that the Uni versit y of Hawa i‘i system is “ ver y much an economic dr iver of this st ate.” “University of Hawai‘i graduates are powering our economy,” he explained, “So as we improve the University of Hawai‘i, we’re going to improve life for ever yone in Hawai‘i.” He feels that the state’s ability to attract talent from all over the world is something that should be taken advantage of. “It ’s not just about local residents going to UH, we have people from all over the world that go to UH. That ’s an export industr y,” said Case.
T H E F I N A L C O U N T D OW N I n t hese f i na l days before t he pr i ma r y elect ion, Case is pla n n i ng to ma ke a last push to reach out to t he people i n “a n absolute blur of act ivit y r ight across t he st ate,” t hrough sig n wav i ng, meet a nd g reet s a nd t a l k i ng stor y. Part of the ef fort will include simply asking people to vote. “If we make the right decisions right now, long af ter I’m around, the next generations – including the folks that are at the Universit y of Hawai‘i now who are about to graduate and just did graduate – will have a far better f uture.”

“The Campaign” also features performances from Jason Sudeikis, Brian Cox and John Lithgow. JOSEPH H AN Staff Writer Released with electionyear timing, “ The Campaign” is meant to provide comic relief by poking fun at indiscretions, scandals, political funding and the trail that leads to success. Comedy giants Will Ferrell and Zach Galifianakis are at the helm of this film as contenders who take their tenacity to win to desperate and barbaric extremes. Though not an effective political satire, “ The Campaign” exaggerates and lampoons politics to the point of becoming a farce. Congressman Cam Brady ( Ferrell) gets a run for his money when tour guide Mart y Huggins (Galif ianakis) oppos es him with backing and more money from the Motch brothers, corrupt power brokers bent on getting support for an in-
sourcing scheme of importing cheap Chinese labor to work in their factories. With their inf luence, Huggins transforms into a viable opponent capable of going head- on with Brady in a mean-spirited race. Dylan McDermott as Tim Wattley, Huggins’ disciplined and stern campaign manager, is consistently entertaining while the comedy of the film shifts between clever and tedious just like the back and forth between the contenders. Being fans of either of the leads, you get what you expect from them, and at times their clash is amusing because of their outbursts and oddities. However, the development of the film falls into a routine of gags, and as both candidates become debased by their ambition to bury the other opponent, so does the humor. This tale of depravity and last-minute redemption works
hard for laughs – there are some genuinely funny moments, like a failed recitation of the L ord’s Prayer – but overall “ The Campaign” aims at you from all angles to grab your attention like one of Brady’s over-the -top campaign ads. As the film runs its course and comes time to vote on whether it is good or not, perhaps you’ll compare it to other films in the Will Ferrell canon and this one will come short, or maybe you’ll anticipate more from Galifianakis. There is and isn’t a bandwagon appeal to this kind of film, and “The Campaign” has the makings of a success solely based on the popularity of the actors – but just because everyone else laughs doesn’t mean you will or have to. “The Campaign” is rated R and hits theaters this Friday.

Four tips to excel at your internship

NIK SEU / KA LEO O HAWAI‘I
A LVIN PARK Features Editor Given the pressures of a job market where unemployment sits at 8.2 percent nationwide, college students are hunting for internships more than ever, hoping to get their foot in the door and impress prospective employers. As a student who is working at his third internship of his college career, I can say that the worth of an internship is dependent on what you make of it. Though internships can vary from field to field, here are four tips to make the most out of yours and leave a lasting impression on your supervisor.
OFFER TO TAKE ON PROJECTS More often than not, interns are ready to get to work when they begin their internship – only to fi nd out that the work they’re assigned is mundane and irrelevant to their field of study. Though this may be inevitable, instead of letting your internship waste away by filing papers (or fetching coffee), ask your supervisor if you can spearhead (or at least assist with) projects that you’re interested in. The worst that can happen is your supervisor feeling that you are too inexperienced and saying “no,” but your willingness to get involved may still impress him or her. If your office has weekly meetings, be sure to ask your supervisor if you can sit in on them. Take a pen and notepad and jot
down anything of interest. The idea here is to get exposed to as many different facets of your internship as possible, which can only benefit you in the long term.
U N PA I D? S O W H AT ? Given the fervent debate of whether internships constitute as free labor, most students are immediately turned off to the idea of an internship when they find out that the position is unpaid. But the benefits of an internship – paid or unpaid – can be substantial and extend beyond monetary compensation, whether it is through learning new skills, networking opportunities, a solid letter of recommendation or possibly a full-time job in the future. If you can’t afford to work unpaid for more than a couple days a week, be sure to communicate that with your supervisor. Most superiors will be very mindful of your full-time student status and will be open to giving you flexible hours. Don’t let up an internship simply because you feel that you should be paid – the benefits may pay back in different ways.
E M B R AC E C R I T I C I S M I often remember turning in a big project to my supervisor and sweating bullets over whether or not I had completed it to their satisfaction. Don’t stress: Your internship is your opportunity to hone your skills, play to your strengths and address your weaknesses.
If a supervisor is giving you constructive feedback, don’t take it as a personal attack, but rather an opportunity to impress them with your next assignment. Your superiors know that you are relatively inexperienced and won’t berate you for a project you’ve never done before. Therefore, use their advice to surpass their expectations on your next assignment.

T H I N K O F YO U R S E L F A S A N E M P L OY E E Some students make the mistake of thinking of an internship as a casual gig where work performance can be shoddy since “they’re just an intern.” Instead, think of yourself as an employee and act accordingly, whether this means dedicating more time in the office or finishing your work on the weekends. If you’re like me and like completing all projects before you go home for the day, you’ll probably find yourself in the office after everyone else has gone home. This may result in your co-workers telling you to go home and “stop working.” Although it’s important to not overdo it, the time and effort you dedicate into your position will be beneficial not only to your company, but you as well. Be sure to let them know that you cannot only demonstrate the skills of a temporary, inexperienced intern, but also that of a seasoned employee. When a position at your company opens up, employers will be more keen to hire superstar interns whom they remembered as having a strong work ethic.

Most students enter college thinking they’ll graduate on time. Unfortunately, it doesn’t happen very often. In Hawai‘i, on average, full-time students take 5.8 years to earn a 4-year degree and 5.6 years to earn a 2-year degree. This means more time and more money. For example, at UH Mănoa, UH Hilo, and UH West O‘ahu, you can save as much as $12,000 on a bachelor’s degree if you take 15 credits per semester and graduate on time. Besides costing more in tuition and fees, not finishing on time also costs you more in housing and living expenses, not to mention lost income!

Shift the odds in your favor by taking 15 credits per semester. Students who earn 15 credits are more likely to finish college on time, earn better grades, and have higher completion rates. On average, residents in Hawai‘i with a bachelor’s degree earned nearly $20,000 more per year, and those with an associate’s degree earned $10,000 more per year, than residents who did not earn a college degree. It pays to earn your degree, and earning it faster means you’ll make more money over the span of your career!
Take control ! You determine how long it will take you to graduate. The first step is to register for 15 credits each semester and take English and Math courses in your first year of college. Students who take 15 credits per semester and complete English and Math courses early are more likely to graduate on time.
The next step is to be proactive and ask for help. Meet with your academic advisor, who will help you map out a plan to finish on time. Know which courses you need to take to graduate. If you can’t take 15 credits a semester, then take summer classes to stay on track.
By earning 15 credits per semester, you’ll not only graduate on time, you’ll also have more options. You could enter the workforce, start your career, and start earning money sooner. You could pursue a graduate degree. You could even take time off to travel or do some volunteer work. The options are limitless if you finish on time!

Warriors seek togetherness TYLER ISONO Contributing Writer
NIK SEU / KA LEO O HAWAI‘I
The absence of surnames on player jerseys encourages a more unified atmosphere, particularly when the team stretches.
Though athletic watchers around the world are focused on the Olympics, the University of Hawai‘i Warrior football team will focus its energy on fall camp. A nd for the first time, the camp will be moving out of the athletic department to Pearl Harbor’s Hickam A ir Force Base next week. “ W hen you get away like that – when you have to rely on one another and there is no outside distractions – that is where I think you learn to become a football team,” said head coach Norm Chow. “ This is the most diverse team in the countr y. We introduced ourselves, [and] we have players from Florida, and we have players from Australia. It ’s a wide range of areas. “But it ’s a neat opportunity to learn about one another and become a team. A nd that ’s what we’d like to do, and I think that ’s
what Pearl Harbor will give us because it ’s all strictly football for a week,” he continued. With three arrests on suspicion of a DUI over the last five months, the Warriors have been buckling down and focusing on practice. Chow’s focus on the importance of the team dynamic will be seen this season by having surnames removed from the player’s jerseys. “Football is not about an individual; it ’s about a football team” said Chow. “It ’s about 11, 22 guys, 100 guys all pulling the in same direction.”
ʻL O O K I N G A F T E R T H E YO U N G E R G U YS ʼ The entire Warrior team is working toward coming together during fall camp. “ We are looking after the younger guys,” said junior quarterback David Graves, who was a starter last year. “Coming out to camp for the first time can be a tough experience. [I want to]
take them under my wing, make them feel comfortable any way I can – just reach out a helping hand and give back.” According to Graves, the team will be pushed harder than in previous seasons. A nd this will be vital if the team is to be ready for its season opener against USA Today’s Preseason No. 3 USC on Sept. 1 at 1:30 p.m. “It ’s more intense and up tempo,” said Graves. “A nd I would say far more disciplined. W hen I was with the old coach and old team, we were a little more laidback. This new regime is much more intense.” Hawai‘i will rotate between one and two practices a day on the Hickam A ir Force Base working to refine their skills and teamwork through practice on the field and studying the playbook. Graves said his goal is “to keep learning this offense, get my mind wrapped around it, so I’m out there playing and not thinking.”
