road to recovery

CAITLIN K ELLY News Editor Moore Hall was the target of two burglaries in one week, and as a result, Campus Security is planning to expand its presence on campus. On the morning of April 19, CS received a report of multiple breakins on the fourth ﬂoor of Moore Hall. Seven ofﬁces were broken into, and six computers were reported missing. On April 23, a suspicious couple was reported outside of Moore

Hall, and it was later found that multiple rooms were broken into on the third ﬂoor and two computers were taken. “I suspect it’s the same individual,” said Campus Security Captain and Acting Chief Alberta Pukahi. “ The same methods were used, so I do suspect it’s highly likely the same individual. Why they did it, it could be any number of reasons.” The total cost of the stolen computers and repairs to the ofﬁces is unknown at this time. Pukahi has

not been updated on the progress of Honolulu Police Department investigations being conducted into past burglaries on campus.

NEW SECURIT Y MEASURES According to information sent to LLEA faculty last Thursday, the employees in charge of maintaining computer and lab equipment are working on further securing as many doors in the building as possible. A guard has been contracted to patrol Moore Hall overnight;

this guard will be responsible for checking for University of Hawai‘i ID cards to ensure that only authorized parties are entering the building after hours. In addition to that, the building will be secured at an earlier time. “We do understand that work still needs to be done, but we just want to identify who’s in the building and the fact that they do belong there,” Pukahi said. Cameras are also in the process of being inst alled in

st rategic locat ions on emergency call boxes around cam pus. St a ir wells could also include cameras, depending on the design of the building. “Designs of buildings differ from building to building,” Pukahi said. “Some of the stairs may be enclosed, some of them are open, so that would be a planning issue. That’s something that’s being addressed right now.” See CS, page 2

CS adapts Campus Security aiming to educate with ‘Sex Signals’ Moore Hall is also undergoing an elevator modernization project, where cameras are being installed in elevator cabs and elevator lobbies. Key card access will also be required for elevators, as well as into the main doors of the building. Information Technology department employees have also encouraged faculty to utilize security features that can be installed on computers. “I know there have been some department IT folks encouraging or trying to work with their people as far as maximizing the use of those devices,” Pukahi said. “You know the capabilities that these iMacs have. We haven’t had any success as far as tracking them so far or yet.” Pukahi emphasized the importance of training in light of the break-ins. “We normally wait for the summer, so we have training coming up this summer, in fact, starting right after graduation,” she said. “That’s our slower period. School’s out; we have summer session. The demands are lessened because we have smaller enrollment, so we can do training during the summer.”

W H AT YO U C A N D O CS has a 24-hour dispatch, so if you see suspicious activity on campus, call CS at 956-6911 or pick up a phone at an emergency call box, which is directly connected to the CS ofﬁce. Be prepared to give the location of the activity and what you see happening, as well as a brief description of the individuals. “If they see something that just doesn’t make sense to them, please by all means call us,” Pukahi said. “If we need support from the police department, we’ll call them, but we’re here, we’re on campus, we’re available, so if they can do anything I ask that they call us.”

A theatrical performance exploring intimate behavior and gender roles among young adults is UH’s latest effort to educate students about the danger of sexual assaults. The program, entitled “Sex Signals,” will make its University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa debut this Tuesday with a 1:30 p.m. performance at Kuykendall Auditorium. “We need more people to be aware of what’s happening and to understand messages [related to sexual assault] and to understand what is happening, what is right and what is not right,” said Captain and Acting Chief of Campus Security Alberta Pukahi. First developed by an acting troop in 2000, “Sex Signals” examines “how mixed messages, gender role stereotypes and unrealistic fantasies contribute to misunderstandings between the sexes,” according to information provided by Bass-Schuler Entertainment, the ﬁrm responsible for promoting the show. Performed regularly at colleges, universities and military installations across the U.S., the act calls itself a show that talks about “a tough topic in a unique way,” using both scripted and impromptu skits to engage the audience on subjects related to sexual assault. The non-traditional format was what appealed to Pukahi and other ofﬁcials at CS, who have played a major role in organizing and funding a performance of the program at UH. “When I heard about it and saw it online, I was sold. I said, ‘You know what, this is what we need to do,’” Pukahi explained, adding that she hopes the show will be an entertaining alternative to typical lectures and presentations by experts on sexual offences.

MIXED REVIEWS While the performance has been popular with security and health directors at many universities, including some of the nation’s most prestigious, the show has also faced

criticism for being too superficial in its approach to a serious issue. A 2009 review that appeared in The Harvard Crimson described the show as “more like a live version of ‘Knocked Up’ than a program designed to decrease sexual assault,” claiming that the show’s humor and dialogue got in the way of addressing what it called a “staggering” problem on college campuses. The program has also been scrapped at some universities in favor of presentations more tailored to specific campuses. Four years ago, Yale University, which has paid to host the show every year for incoming freshmen, decided to use a video created by alumni fi lmmakers that also ex-

amined sex assault-related issues, but in a way university ofﬁcials said was more “Yale-speciﬁc.” Performed by professional actors through Chicago-based Catharsis Productions, “Sex Signals” costs universities and branches of the military several thousand dollars per show. While the production company does not post price estimates on its website, a show put on at Cleveland’s John Carroll University earlier this year cost backers at the institution $4,200. Pukahi told Ka Leo that a final cost has not yet been determined for UH Mānoa’s showing of the program. “We’re still tallying up costs, we still have things that we have

to pay for,” she said. “Sex Signals” will be shown at UH amidst recent increases in reported forcible sexual offenses on campus. Incidents for 2011 and 2010, the t wo most re cent years for which complete data is available, totaled 18 and 22 respectively, both of which represent a signif icant increase over the t wo cases reported in 20 09, according to records pro vided by CS.

Pagett plunges into the Peace Corps

M ADDIE SAPIGAO Senior Staff Writer Senior swimmer Valerie Pagett has put in the work to earn the title of co-captain of the University of Hawai‘i swim team. She spent her first year in college attending the University of Southern California and swam for its club team. The next year she transferred to the University of Hawai‘i after a successful recruiting trip. “The outdoor atmosphere is really important to me, growing up in Southern California,” Pagett said. “...[When] I went on my recruiting trip, I fell in love with the team and the vibe, and I just decided this was the place for me.”

LEARNING LESSONS Pagett was also close to fellow breaststroker Peter Chi, who passed away last semester from a second heart attack. “He was just always so positive about life,” Pagett said. “He spoke about how short life is and how you can’t take anything for granted, and after we lost Peter, all of us learned that the hard way.” Not only did Pagett learn a valuable lesson from Chi, but she also learned many others from swimming. “Being a swimmer, more than any other sport that I did, taught me about my own personal strength and who I am inside,” Pagett said. “I learned to be confident in myself and trust in what I practiced and be determined and confident – just working hard all the time you can’t ever slack off. “It taught me also how to balance things. Being in the water, your body has to be balanced inside the water, and it kind of interprets into your life outside as well, with schoolwork, friends and your sport. You have to learn to have a really open lifestyle.” CAROLINE ANDERSON / KA LEO O HAWAI‘I

Valerie Pagett won the UH Coaches’ Award in 2009 and the Outstanding Scholar-Athlete Award in 2011.

FUTURE PLANS Pagett’s goal for collegiate swimming was not to make it to the Olympics but to be respected

by her teammates. After UH, Pagett wanted to ﬁ nd something that would be even more challenging. “I knew that when I was done swimming, I knew that I wanted to do something that challenged me more than swimming itself,” Pagett said. The answer for Pagett was the Peace Corps. “The Peace Corps is basically a program that allows people, mostly people from the U.S., to go abroad, mostly to third-world countries and just integrate into society and give people a better understanding of the U.S.,” she said. Pagett leaves for the Peace Corps on July 10. She will be in Cambodia for the next two years and three months. “The Peace Corps to me is kind of the same idea as coming out here,” Pagett said. “But everybody here speaks English for the most part, so moving to Cambodia for me is a step above because [I am] once again leaving my comfort zone and my friends and my family. “But this time, I’m not going to know the language or culture or anything. And it’s going to challenge me in ways I’ve never been challenged.” Although Pagett has left her shell once before, she admitted that new worries can come up. “I have some anxieties and fears and worries, but for the most part, I know that I will be okay,” Pagett said. “If anything, swimming as a collegiate athlete has taught me that I can do anything. So it might be easy compared to what I had to do in college.” Fellow co-captain Christa Prior sees that this will be a great opportunity for Pagett. “I think it’s going to be really good for her,” Prior said. “Both of us have talked about it before, and she’s really helpful and she likes to help other people. So something that gives her the opportunity to go abroad and help someone that necessarily wouldn’t have the chance is really good for her.”

Film review: ‘Mud’ JOSEPH H AN Associate Chief Copy Editor “Mud” follows the tradition set by Mark Twain, an apparent influence on director Jeff Nichols, who is a force to watch out for. The film explores what it means to grow up working hard in a community, forge relationships and hold onto ideals of love. “Mud” sets in as a warm film about disillusionment and how hope can thrive despite disappointment and a great American film. Teenagers Ellis (Tye Sheridan) and Neckbone (Jacob Lofland) are open to roughing it on the river and adventure onward to marvel at a sight to see on an island – a boat in a tree. There they happen upon Mud (Matthew McConaughey), a charming outlaw who possesses grit to impress. The boys end up helping Mud, who is waiting to meet the love of his life Juniper (Reese Witherspoon), by bringing him food and enough parts to help him reconstruct the boat so he may venture away happily ever after with her. McConaughey’s charisma demands attention, but the loneliness and pain of past sufferings loiter behind his expressions. Relationships in this film are always on the verge of dissolving, such as Ellis’ parents who are about to divorce, or absent, like between Neckbone and his uncle Galen (Michael

Shannon). Ellis desires to help Mud, who becomes a surrogate father, to reconcile the absence of compassion in his parents’ relationship, and he even strives to acquire a girlfriend. Despite his efforts to foster connections, distance and failure are felt where love does not thrive, and Sheridan gives a wrenching performance by wearing Ellis’ pain. The aches in “Mud” resonate and stay with you. Whether it’s the loss of a unified family for Ellis or crushed hopes for Mud, absence in luck and unmet expectations are reconcilable. Although Nichols captures the idyllic quality of nature, hard work is required to survive in the wilderness or among society, and danger always lurks. Snakes may always pose threats to the characters in the film, but there is no antivenom for latent sorrow. Through the friendship displayed between the boys and Mud, the compassion between fathers and sons and the delicacy of romance, “Mud” shows how life requires traction despite the messy and the grim. In the film, Ellis punches various people in the face to protect and defend love – in the same way, “Mud” hits hard.

reliving ‘Our Moments’ Robert Bates mentoring art director/ assistant director Jess T. Johnston. PHOTO COURTESY OF WEST LECLAY

NICOLYN C HARLOT Associate Features Editor While intramural sports amass a number of students looking to get involved in athletics apart from the university’s ofﬁcial teams, it often goes under the radar and fails to achieve the same spotlight and attention. However, a group of ﬁlmmakers are getting together to make a promotional video that hopes to change the disinterested attitude surrounding intramurals. West LeClay, a senior majoring in business, is the director of the video titled, “Our Moments.” About a year and a half ago, he got some people together to make a promotional video for the Recreational Center at the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa. After that was completed, he wanted to do something bigger, and thus he began to develop “Our Moments.”

S M A L L C R E W, B I G N A M E S

MUD-THE-MOVIE.COM

LeClay wanted to give students the chance to experience working on a real set with fi lm professionals, something the Academy for Creative Media at UH Mānoa doesn’t always provide. “Let’s get the best of the best out here,” LeClay said. “We’re going to be entering this industry – let’s start working with these people now.” LeClay spoke with experienced people in the film industry and asked them to assist in the making of the video. Professionals who have worked on projects like “Hawai‘i Five-0” and “The Descendants” will be coming to help film the video and

show students what it is like working on a professional set. Robert Bates, the executive producer of “Our Moments,” said that there is “going to be a lot of mentoring going on. It’s actually a really good opportunity for students … to get a great taste of what… a small A-list ﬁlm crew can do.” Though Bates and other professionals will oversee and provide guidance throughout the process, most of the work is being done by UH Mānoa students. The camera that will be

The theme is, ‘Nobody knows what these moments mean to us, and neither would you, unless you were a part of it’ -West LeClay used is the type of expensive camera used in ﬁlming movies like “The Hobbit,” one students can usually only dream of working with.

ʻO U R MOM E N T S ʼ The journey for LeClay, Bates and others working on the video has been long. It took more than six months to get funding for the project, and though many people liked the idea of ﬁlming something about intramural sports, few were willing to provide money for it. “Nobody realized how big this was to us,” LeClay said. He then connected the process of bringing the production together with the theme of the video. “The theme is, ‘Nobody knows what these

moments mean to us, and neither would you, unless you were a part of it,’” LeClay said. “And that’s the big theme for intramural sports: Those moments are so big, and we all played intramural sports … and we know how big that was.” He describes the plot of the video as a sort of inner monologue about people who play intramural sports. They struggle and struggle before reaching that one moment when the spotlight is on them and everything is worthwhile. “It [doesn’t] even compare to what the UH football players feel … in the stands with thousands of people,” said LeClay of his intramural experience. “We feel the same way when we’re doing intramural sports, and [the video is] all about capturing that moment.” Shooting is scheduled to begin in early May, and the editing process will follow. The video will be aired on television, posted online and played in the Stan Sheriff Center around the beginning of fall semester. The ultimate purpose of the video, Bates said, is to get students “to participate, to get involved, to have fun, to not just get locked into doing your classes, but to get to know your fellow students and yourself, through athletics.” “While we’re in college, you can go after your dreams,” LeClay said. “If you just ﬁnd something that you love and ﬁgure out a way to use that gift to give back to the university, the university is going to help you out and is going to want to perpetuate you talents … your love for life.”

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Burglary on campus could have been prevented According to KHON2, at the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa, there were two break-ins in Moore Hall in less than a week. Burglaries happen not only in offices but also in classrooms. This semester, one of my friends went to turn in homework during class, and when she came back, her textbook had been stolen. Even though she told her professor, nothing was addressed. She was told to buy another new book that cost more than $100. It only took a few minutes to turn in the homework, and her brand new textbook was stolen. According to Mānoa crime statistics, in 2009, there were 56 burglaries on campus. But this data has not been updated since 2009. There is a pretty good chance that the number of burglaries hasn’t dropped. The Honolulu Police Department has stated that they have leads for the Moore Hall burglaries and they are investigating, but there are still no arrests. The Campus Security program should look in to what kinds of resources are needed in order to maximize security on campus. Something has to change to fast: At UH Mānoa there is only one Campus Security building, and it is located at the end of the campus. The building is far away from Campus Center and most of the buildings where classes are located. I think the solution should be to have multiple security buildings or rooms on campus.

For the sake of the planet DOOR AE SHIN Contributing Writer In facing the global environmental crisis, it is clear that the world is in dire need of change. It starts with the individual to progress and create this change. We must take responsibility by educating ourselves and taking action. Environmental and social justice is a tangible goal. At the source, we must all look at what’s happening in our lives and in society. Although Earth Month may be ending, it’s not too late to do your part.

The meat and dairy industries are the leading cause of the environmental crisis. They emit 40 percent more greenhouse gases than the entire transportation sector. An average omnivore’s diet requires more than 4,000 gallons of water to produce while a plant-based diet requires about 300 gallons of water – all for one day’s worth of food. If that’s not enough, studies show that vegans have a 40 percent less chance of getting cancer and avoid a host of illnesses including heart disease, high cholesterol and diabetes. If you’re interested, read the “World Peace Diet” by Will Tuttle and watch “Forks Over Knives.”

Do you really need new clothes? Genntly used itemss are cheaper for you u and less damaging to the environmen environment. Bring your reusable you shopping bags and reusable water bottle wherever you go. Most grocery stores offer a $0.05 discount for every bag you bring, and several coffee shops offer incentives if you bring your own mug. Buy from local, sustainable businesses and avoid big chains like Wal-Mart, Target and Costco. This small step protects our environment, keeps the money in Hawai‘i and reduces our dependence on mainland and international imports. This Earth Month, I have had an increasing realization of the interconnectedness of all the problems in the world. With the exposure to one issue comes the inevitable connection and exposure to another issue. From GMO foods to water scarcity, every environmental crisis we are facing is connected in a web of suffering and oppression. This continuous cycle of realizations at ﬁrst seems overwhelming but in fact becomes empowering. Every person has the power to make changes. When we ﬁnd the compassion for the world that allows us to exist and thrive, we can create the universal change that Mother Earth needs.
