New indigenous health graduate program

A LEX BIT TER Associate News Editor A new graduate degree in native Hawaiian and indigenous health has a group of public health students to thank for its launch this fall. The Native Hawaiian and indigenous health master’s degree, which will be offered as a specialization through the current public health studies program at the John A. Burns School of Medicine, was created because of student demand for a program focused on the specific health needs of Hawaiians and other indigenous people. “It’s a wonderful opportunity and a global initiative to try to bring indigenous health and wellness to the forefront,” said Maile Taualii, UH professor and specialization head for the new program.

MEETING NEEDS Taualii said that while the public health program has existed at Burns for a while, the idea for a separate Hawaiian or indigenous-degree track came about two years ago as a request from a group of students. “[They wanted to know] why there weren’t classes and people there to address the things that they thought they were going to school for– to serve Native Hawaiian communities,” she said. Jay Maddock, director of the Office of Public Health Studies, said he has seen similar demand from students for the program, such as a graduate student’s work about the incorporation of Hawaiian ethics and values into public health. “That got me thinking, ‘How can we do a better job involving indigenous health and Native Hawaiian health and reduce these major health disparities?’” Maddock said.

Food talk: speaking up and out

from page 1

After hearing from students, Maddock, Taualii and other faculty in the public health program pursued university funding for a cluster hire of faculty with expertise on health issues facing Native Hawaiians and other indigenous people.

S T U D E N T VO I C E Even as important decisions about setting up the program loomed, the faculty included its existing graduate students in the process. One such student, Mililani Trask Batti, a public health student, sat on Mānoa’s public health graduate student board. As a member of the hiring committee, Batti helped faculty review curricula vitae and interview candidates, an experience that showed how much her professors valued student involvement. “When you get to interact with faculty and when you get called, as I did, to sit on a hiring committee, it really tells the students that their voice is important,” she explained. Earlier this week, a ceremony at UH Mā noa’s Hawai‘inui‘kea School of Hawaiian Knowledge officially welcomed the degree track to Burns’ graduate program. While the program is small right now – it currently consists of three professors and four graduate students – it is wasting no time helping students explore the field. Chad Noble-Tabiolo, who was accepted into the public health program last year and will transfer to the indigenous health track, said he is relying on the program to narrow his interests to a specific field or two. Noble-Tabiolo admitted that, although he left Hawai‘i for his undergraduate degree, he feels that his true passion is helping disad-

vantaged groups with their access to healthcare, decent housing and other health issues. “I’m hoping that by the time I graduate I’ll … narrow down those issues to a few,” he said. Meanwhile, Maddock said he hopes the new degree track will attract more students of Native Hawaiian descent to get Ph.D.s, because the medical school has few choices when hiring new faculty for the program. “There are not a lot of Native Hawaiian Ph.D.s in public health. … This program, we’re hoping, is going to be the new pipeline to get more Hawaiian Ph.D.s that we can hire from within,” Maddock said. Maddock also emphasized the high quality of the degree program and noted that the it is easily within reach for students who prefer not to leave the state. “For our local students that want to stay here in Hawai‘i, this is a world-class program,” he said. “Our advisory board is from all around the world – the top indigenous leaders are advising us on this – so it’s an excellent program right here at home.” Interim Editor in Chief Marc Arakaki contributed to this story.

(L-R) Kyle Datta, Alan Gottilieb and Shin Ho were the featured speakers at Wednesday’s forum. CONSCIOUS CONSUMERS

CAITLIN K ELLY News Editor Three University of Hawai‘i at M ā noa students were interested in the way food related to various areas of study and decided to do something about it. Alumna and former Ka Leo staffer Kelsey Amos and Ph.D. students Annie Koh and Aiko Yamashiro created the interdisciplinary organization Food (+) at the beginning of the academic year to encourage dialogue on campus about food-related issues. The group holds monthly discussions. This forum, with about 20 attendees on March 6, focused on agriculture and legislation. “We felt like people were doing interesting work in other departments but didn’t always have the chance to share across departments,” Yamashiro explained. “So we wanted to feature student work and get these discussions going about food and see if we could build some kind of momentum.” Three guest speakers made an appearance at this month’s discussion: Shin Ho from Ho Farms, Kyle Datta from the Ulupono Initiative and Alan Gottilieb from the Hawai‘i Cattlemen’s Council. Though no students presented at this event, they typically do so on topics such as policy and community-driven food projects.

resolutions and one concurrent resolution. Because adequate food production requires affordable land with long-term leases, fair compensation for agricultural lease terminations and lower state lease rents are being proposed. Issues regarding water, fi nances and energy are also being considered. One can get involved by testifying at the legislature, which can be done online. Write a brief description of who you are, the organization you’re involved in and if you support or oppose the bill. Testimony can then be submitted at the legislature’s website, www. -Shin Ho capitol.hawaii. gov.

Though farmers’ markets have become popular, not all produce sold is locally grown. “I’ve seen the farmers’ market continuously growing throughout the island, but to me as a farmer, I feel like it doesn’t benefit the farmer,” Ho said. “It’s just a business that’s pushing the resale of vegetables. And in the end, that’s hurting our local supermarkets and our famers.”

I think marketing nowadays misrepresents a lot of things.

‘La Strada’: acrobatic story telling BEN SAUNDERS Staff Writer

The circus is a crazy place, and those who have been to a performance might know what to expect from Federico Fellinia’s “La Strada,” the newest offering from Kennedy’s Earle Ernst Lab Theatre, which began on Wednesday and will continue through the weekend. “La Strada” (“The Road”) is the first English translation of the Italian show to be performed on stage. The play, which tells the story of the relationship between a traveling circus performer and his assistant, promises a unique experience for the audience and strives to thrill onlookers with impressive feats while telling a moving story.

A BAC KG RO U N D I N P E R F O R M I N G Director and MFA directing candidate Benjamin Sota comes from a family of performers and has worked in the circus since the age of 16 – he even founded his own circus company. “There’s a lot of ‘clown’ I’ve learned from circus … and [how to] do it authentically,” Sota said, explaining how his experiences have reflected upon his directing process. Stressing the professional aspect of the art, Sota is using this show to present his audience with a performance firmly rooted in a circus style, but not one so over-the-top that it subtracts from the story.

T H E L O N G ROA D The first step of the process was to translate the entire script from Italian into English and to do so in a way that would not only make sense onstage but would also be pleasing and humorous to the audience. “ We started a year and a half ago. It ’s really hard to do that,” Sota said. They ended with a script that tells a story in ways that aim to drag the audience from mirthful laughter at one moment to tragedy the next. Sota said that the cast is dedicated to completing scenes, even when Sota leaves the room. This level of communication and cooperation among not only the director and his cast, but between the actors themselves, sets “La Strada” up to be an effective and unique show. Words can never really capture the art and creativity that goes into the circus. To witness just how spectacular the circus can be, seize the opportunity to see “La Strada.”

‘LA STRADA’ When: Friday, March 8 and Saturday, March 9; 8 p.m. Where: Earl Ernst Lab Theatre Cost: $16 general admission; $15 seniors, military, UH faculty and staff; $13 students, UHAA members; $5 UH Mā noa students with a validated I.D. Contact: hawaii.edu/kennedy

China’s rapid industrialization, reliance on coal power, car ownership and disregard of environmental laws contribute to air pollution. CARTER C. KOCH Contributing Writer

MONEY ISSUE

A mericans may have heard the phrase “spectacles, testicles, wallet and watch” before stepping out the door to start their day. But noe the Chinese might coin a new phrase, “goggles and masks for daily tasks,” before stepping outside. A fter years of speculation, China’s environmental ministr y has admitted to the harmful effects its factories have on certain villages. If China continues to produce and industrialize the way it has, it must acknowledge, accept and control the outcomes of this reckless development.

refuses to acknowledge these allegations. Furthermore, smog levels have become so high in cities like Beijing that people find it more tolerable to walk through the streets with masks and goggles on to limit the inhalation of toxic air and to prevent harm to their eyes. It is time for China to acknowledge hazardous conditions. According to an article from the BBC, smog levels in cities like Beijing are well below what the World Health Organization considers to be safe – it is a violation of human rights, especially considering China’s status as a developed country.

C A N C E R V I L L AG E S

The amount of toxic chemical pollution found in China’s air and water has greatly increased the number of cancer patients, creating areas known as “cancer villages.” The chemicals that are having detrimental effects on Chinese citizens are outlawed in most developing countries, which raises questions as to why China continues to these chemicals. Scientists have found high levels of poisonous metals in the water, but the government

China seems to care more about total factor productivity, a measure of a country’s technological growth and change, than its citizens’ health. However, as a world power, China has a responsibility to take care of its people to the best of its ability. A fter all, China is able to produce as much as it does because of its laborers. Without a healthy population, China would experience a dramatic decline in productivity and subsequently in

its annual GDP because of a lack of human capital investment. According to a recent lecture at the East-West Center by former U.S. A mbassador to Beijing J. Stapleton Roy, by 2030, China will not have enough people to replace the current laborer pop ulation due to the one child per family law. Despite this, China has ever y incentive to continue GDP growth for as long as possible, giving it multiple reasons to clean up its act and its environment as an investment for the future. Healthy people ref lect a healthy economy. Continuing to ignore toxic conditions may result in citizens becoming too sick to work, a decrease in pro duction, future GDP and basic quality of life. China must look at this revelation as a chance to clean ecologically damaged areas for its citizens. Not investing in a nation’s healthcare and education halts progress. The international community depends on China’s economy for labor and manufactured goods. The Chinese government has not only a domestic obligation, but an international obligation to clean its environment and take care of its people.

Home is where your trash is My boyfriend and I have been dating for almost five years and he keeps a tidy personal appearance, but every time I go to his place, it resembles a bachelor’s pad – a complete mess. There are clothes all over his bed and floor, so no matter where you step, you’re stepping on some piece of clothing. There’s food trash lurking among the clothes as well as littering his desk. He dislikes it when I clean his room and do his laundry, but I honestly can’t stand being in a smelly room where I can’t feel the floor directly under my feet. How can I convince my boyfriend to tidy up after himself without nagging or seeming mom-like? QUINCY GREENHECK Web Editor

A RIEL R AMOS Special Issues Editor

You don’t want to come across as mom-like, yet you clean up his messes? You two should clean together or not at all. What I advise is to have a serious talk with him about his fi lthy habits and outline specifically why you have a problem with his messy ways. Essentially, you need to fi nd a way of nicely telling him he lives like a slob and you would like to see an improvement. Give him the chance to change, but understand that if he’s been living this way for at least five years, it could be a pattern of behavior too entrenched to easily drop. If he doesn’t show signs of changing, then you need to realize your boyfriend, no matter what other redeeming characteristics he may possess, is a slob and will probably always be one.

If it really bothers you, you need to talk to him about it. You can’t expect him to change in a day, but help him figure out easy ways to stay organized and clean, whether it’s getting drawers for his clothes or having trashcans all over his place. An ultimatum might work as well. Help him clean his place and then tell him that if he wants you to keep coming over or spending the night, he has to keep it clean. You aren’t his housekeeper, so don’t feel obligated to clean up after him. Sometimes caring about someone means making them clean their own messes.

ELIAQUIM R EYES Staff Writer Despite suffering eight home losses, the Rainbow baseball team will look for its fi rst home win as it faces the Gonzaga Bulldogs this week. Hawaiʻi (1-12) managed to snag its first victory of the season against Loyola Marymount in the UNLV Rebel Classic. Led by junior center fielder Kalei Hanawahine (3-for-4, two R BI) and senior right hander Corey MacDonald (complete game, five strikeouts), the ‘Bows went on to scorch the Lions 8 -3. Regardless, the Rainbows lost four of the five games they played last week. “That was last week,” head coach Mike Trapasso said. “We didn’t play well after that, so we’ve got to get better and fi nd a way to scratch out some more.” Freshman designated hitter Alan Baldwin leads the team in batting average (.280), followed by junior outfielder Adam Hurley (.277) and sophomore outfielder Kaeo Aliviado (.268). Hurley also leads the team in hits (13) and RBI (5). Despite the losses that sophomore Scott Squier and junior

Matt Cooper faced, they head the pitching squad in ERA (2.60). Cooper is also the team leader in strikeouts (20), with Squier and MacDonald (12) behind him.

THE OPPONENT Gonzaga (6 -4-1) went 2- 0 -1 last weekend in the CocaCola Classic hosted by Arizona State University. The Bulldogs’ offense is led by outfielder Cory LeBrun, who holds a .357 batting average with 10 hits and six RBI. Following behind him is pitcher/first baseman Marco Gonzales (.343/12/4) and third baseman Mitchell Gunsolus (.341/15/2). Gonzaga’s ERA leader is Tyler Olson (2.21) and is followed by Gonzales (2.45), who also boasts a team-high 22 strikeouts, while Olson has 20. The ‘Bows, who played Gonzaga last year in Spokane, Wash., were swept in a four-game series. However, UH won two out of three home games against the Bulldogs in 2010.

HIT AND MISS A lthough UH displayed a greater offensive output in the latest series – 18 runs in the last five games com-

pared to 17 in the previous eight – the ‘Bows still have to deal with the problem of leaving runners on base, with 46 stranded in 37 hits. “We had a couple good games offensively, so we were scoring more runs than when we were here but still not where it needs to be,” Trapasso said. “We gotta win some high-scoring dog fights.” A long with the team’s struggle to dominate games, it is also lef t on edge as freshman lef t-hander Quintin Torres - Costa was injured during batting practice in L as Vegas, leaving another hole to f ill in the pitching rotation with junior lef t-hander Jarrett A rakawa also on the disabled list. “You just gotta mix, and match and leave guys out there that might be struggling,” Trapasso said. “You can’t just keep going to the bullpen because we don’t have enough bodies to throw out there. … There’s no question. It has a huge effect.” The ‘Bows will be taking on the Bulldogs in a fivegame series, starting this Friday. The first game will be at 6:35 p.m. at Les Murakami Stadium. Senior right-hander Conner Little is projected to start for the Rainbows.
