CONSTRUCTION COSTS FOR COLLEGE HILL CLOSE TO $1 MILLION

A LDEN A LAY VILLA Senior Staff Writer Ongoing construction costs for exterior work and historic restoration procedures for College Hill are valued at $975,000.

According to Director of Communications and Outreach Kelli Abe Trifonovitch, construction consists of reroofi ng and installation of solar hot water heater systems and historic restoration procedures for wood treatment and carpentry.

“Replacement of termite damage and rotted structural support has added to the original scope of work,” Trifonovitch said.

Construction costs are supplemented by Capital Renewal and Deferred Maintenance funds, and construction is projected to be completed by February 2014.

Repairs to College Hill, located at 2234 Kamehameha Avenue, were also done in 2009.

“Some of these repairs included replacing the existing oak strip wood fl ooring, which was too thin to refi nish, in the entry, living room and dining room,” Trifonovitch said.

News COLLEGE HILL TO BE USED FOR EVENTS UPON COMPLETION CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1

According to Trifonovitch, additional construction included structural repair to the porte cochere, as well as to one of the lanai girders and supports, installation of weather stripping at selected exterior windows, replacment of the old gutters and downspouts around the lanai, replacing a termite damaged floor beam at the cottage and installation of a column to support the new steel beam at the cottage.

The project was completed in 2010 at a cost of $437,746.

According to Trifonovitch, College Hill has a daily housekeeper, who maintains the house while serving as a contact with contractors and visitors, and a nursery worker, who maintains the landscaping twice a week.

“The housekeeper started on March 15,

1993,” Trifonovitch said. “The nursery worker started on Feb. 6, 2007.”

Upon completion of the current repair project, the University of Hawai‘i expects to resume using the home as a venue for meetings and events. Long-term future uses of College Hill are under discussion, and no decisions have been made.

“Once open, we will use (College Hill) for events until there is a decision on its permanent use,” Chancellor Thomas Apple said.

Because of construction, functions at College Hill were put to a halt in September 2012.

In the past, the president of the UH system resided at College Hill, but a decision on whether the next president will live there is uncertain.

Francis Newton Parks III, Monica Umeda, PACE executive director Susan Yamada

“We are searching for a new president,” Apple said. “Will that person want to live there? I don’t know.”

M.R.C. Greenwood, the last UH system president, decided not to live there during her tenure.

“College Hill is now the university’s house, so that’s been decided and that was decided before I came,” Greenwood said in a KHON2 News report. “Actually in spite of the fact, there was a lot of confusion about that.”

The last UH president to reside at College Hill was Evan Dobelle, who lived there from 2001 to 2004.

According to Trifonovitch, College Hill was a Mānoa residence that was built fi ve years before UH M ānoa was founded.

Jon White

“O‘ahu College – as Punahou School used to be called – was located nearby,” Trifonovitch said. “ The M ā noa Valley section where Frank and Eleanor Atherton built their country home was called ‘College Hill Tract.’”

The children of the Atherton family donated College Hill to UH Mānoa in 1963.

“The two-story house blends Victorian and Hawaiian styles,” Trifonovitch said. “It was renovated, and the adjacent building (once the carriage house) was turned into a guesthouse. Artistic and cultural gifts are displayed throughout, along with an elegant grandfather clock bearing the carved name of clockmaker and Atherton son-in-law Chancey Wightman.”

Nature inspires students to solve human problems A LEX ANDR A M INK-F LACCO Contributing Writer Graduate students Monica Umeda and Francis Newton Parks III won first place in the Breakthrough Innovation Challenge with their energy-saving, water-harvesting wall.

The contest, held by the UH Pacific Asian Center for Entrepeneurship, was meant to inspire young innovators to design and create solutions to human problems using ideas from their natural environments.

Participants were not allowed to use natural solutions directly, but were challenged to recreate their effects.

“The Breakthrough Innovation Challenge has defi nitely pushed me to think outside the box to come up with innovative ways to solve major problems,” Umeda said. “It has inspired me to look to nature for more solutions to problems our society faces.”

Umeda intends to enter the BIC’s successor, the Business Plan Competition, in the spring, complete her master’s degree in Electrical Engineering and eventually start her own business.

SOLUTIONS Umeda and Parks of the Engineering and Architecture schools won the BIC for their invention, Cloud Catcher, which is “an energy-saving, water-harvesting wall that employs hydrophilic and hydrophobic relationships to remove water from outside air and pass clean, fresh air to building occupants,” according to the BIC website.

The Cloud Catcher was inspired by the Namib Desert beetle, which collects water by standing in the way of a fog cloud and facing upwind.

The tiny water droplets in the fog are caught in hydrophilic bumps on its wings. When a drop becomes heavy

and large enough, it rolls down the beetle’s back and into its mouth.

The Cloud Catcher uses a similar mechanical structure to create the same hydrophilic and hydrophobic relationship and catch droplets, which are then directed down the surface to be collected.

The second place prize of $500 went to students Qihui Fan, Wenqi Hu and Aaron Ohta. Their project was called Organ Assembly in Vitro, which is “a microbubble robot system that assembles single living cells to form tissues and organs outside of the body,” according to their description.

Third place and $250 was awarded to Jon White for FlySailing, his “high-speed sailboat inspired by the Jesus lizard to provide more stability and make it more usable for a broader range of markets including personal, commercial and military applications.”

T H E B R E A K T H RO U G H I N N OVAT I O N C H A L L E N G E

This year’s competition focused on biomimicry, which is “a new science that studies nature’s models and uses these designs and processes to solve human problems,” according to biomicry.net. Its applications include reducing energy waste using smooth spirals when moving fluids from place to place and maximizing the strength of common materials by using structural patterns from bones or tree trunks.

The competition ran from Oct. 1 until the video submission deadline on Oct. 17. Awards were presented on Nov. 7 after three phases of the overall challenge: submission of a two-minute YouTube video detailing their project and its place in the market, announcement of finalists and coaching of finalists by a business mentor and a final presentation to a judging panel and live audience.

“The Breakthrough Innovation Challenge was a unique competition that forced us to think outside of our comfort zones and look to nature for inspiration,” Umeda said in a press release. “These competitions are effective catalysts to help stimulate the type of innovation Hawai‘i desperately needs.”

The debut of the Breakthrough Innovation Challenge, which is the first challenge of its kind at the University of Hawai‘i, was held in the fall of 2009 by the PACE, which now partners with the UH College of Engineering and the William S. Richardson School of Law. It supports young innovators and works to bring recognition to their efforts while creating connections and networking between the innovators and related community leaders within the university who are likely to be able to assist them in these and future endeavors, according to the BIC website.

Relaxation tips for finals week L IZI A NDERSON Staff Writer During fi nals week, students have their own methods of stress relief. With fi nals approaching, it is important for us to manage our stress wisely. Here are some ideas to consider:

DRI N K WAT E R OR T E A Eighty-five percent of the brain is water, and all brain functions depend on adequate hydration. Water gives the brain electrical energy.

“When you are functioning on a full reserve of water you will be able to think faster, be more focused and experience greater clarity and creativity,” said Merlin Hearn, author of “Water and Brain Function: How to Improve Memory and Focus.”

Hot tea can help you wind down after a long and stressful day, as it has multiple calming effects. In addition, it is calorie-free and contains antioxidants.

G E T A C L E A N S TAR T If you cannot get yourself to study, try taking a shower or bath. This can help you feel like you have a fresh start, reinvigorating and motivating you to keep studying. Girls can shave their legs to focus on one thing, rather than allowing thoughts of unfi nished projects to cloud their minds. It also boosts that feeling of cleanliness when you step out of the shower. Painting your nails has a similar effect, as it forces you to slow down and focus on completing one thing at a time.

T RE AT YOU R S E L F Although stress eating has a series of problematic results, eating a delectable des-

sert or quick snack can help raise morale.

Chocolate is one of the most common types of comfort food and for good reason. The tryptophan and serotonin found in chocolate can induce feelings of relaxation and well-being.

The small amounts of caffeine in chocolate can also give you a kick so you are extra alert.

K E E P C RO S S I N G T H I N GS O F F If all else fails, keep crossing things off of your to-do list. Start with the smaller and more manageable projects and then move to the bigger and more complex assigments.

The sense of accomplishment that you gain from each task you successfully finish will fuel your motivation to tackle the next.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR CTAHR’s Monsanto Fellowships from a recipient’s perspective I am a Monsanto Fellowship recipient, and I want to clear up much of the confusion surrounding the scholarships. It seems most people don’t know what my research is, how the funding is used or what kind of connection we as recipients have to Monsanto.

First of all, all information about how the award works is available publicly online, and information on the specific awardees and their projects can easily be obtained by contacting College of Tropical Agriculture and Human Resources administration; better yet, something one can do which I can vouch has never been done by naysayers, is to ask the actual recipients themselves what the money is used for, how and why we were awarded it and what our obligations are to Monsanto or anyone else as a result of it.

I want to share my story, my research and my involvement with the Monsanto Fellowship, how it works and hopefully answer some lingering questions.

rally occurring resistance to the devastating Banana bunchy top virus, essentially looking for bananas that naturally are not affected by the virus. I started to work on this project independently as an undergrad, and I worked with my advisor to get a grant to fund my studies as a graduate student. This research is a direct alternative to the main research being done in this area, which is trying to create GMO bunchy top virus resistant bananas.

This was to be a three year project, and the first two years were funded by a USDA grant. When that grant was due to run out, I had to search for other funding to continue my research. Monsanto had just donated $500,000 to CTAHR to fund graduate students in plant science. The qualifications for receiving the funding are that you study plants, keep good grades and have shown merit in the past. The selection process is 100 percent internal within CTAHR by faculty and administration.

been able to get a master’s degree, find improved banana varieties for Hawai‘i farmers, distribute those plants to farmers and gardeners across the state free of charge and donate more than 4,000 pounds of bananas from my research plot.

Monsanto has absolutely zero say or influence on what I do.

It gave the money to CTAHR, and CTAHR gave the money to me.

Monsanto is not involved in the selection process at all and has no involvement in the research projects.

Monsanto isn’t concerned with my research, as they have their own labs and professional scientists working internationally on projects they really care about; Monsanto cares about supporting the next generation of crop scientists, but not what those future scientists are doing for their graduate projects. This is true for all of the fellowship recipients.

The fellowship fund is the only money CTAHR has received from Monsanto, and it was relatively small compared to the total amount of money in CTAHR for research. A frequent mantra I’ve heard is that “all of CTAHR has accepted money from Monsanto.”

This is a flat out lie based on ignorance and hearsay.

For 2012 and 2013, which is as long as Monsanto’s one-time donation of $500,000 has been around, CTAHR faculty and staff have been awarded approximately $45,000,000 in extramural funds; this makes funding to CTAHR by Monsanto at just a hair over 1 percent of total outside funds. All of this info is publicly available on the CTAHR website, which publicizes the funding for all CTAHR research projects.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Detached citizens mean failing government The same government that can intercept any digital communication on the face of the earth does not seem to be able to process the information that citizens voluntarily provide about their eligibility for health insurance. The NSA surveillance controversy and the tortured rollout of the Obamacare website are two sides of the same coin. They explain why Americans are so angry about the government.

But, as a rule, we get the government we deserve. Political institutions work well when citizens are engaged: following the news, electing good representatives and pitching in ourselves to address serious national problems like health care and national security. When people are detached, governments generally fail.

So where are we going to get more active and responsible citizens?

That’s where you come in; you can

interests instead of citizens who deliberate and collaborate? Why do schools and colleges offer so little civic education? Why is so little funding available for citizens’ groups? Why do the news and entertainment media rarely depict citizens working together to address problems?

You need to sit down with other active citizens to discuss how to change policies, laws, funding streams and media coverage so that citizen work can flourish and prosper again. That will begin to build a movement of active citizens, which is the only thing that can improve our democracy.

be an effective citizen. Civic engagement that improves the world almost always has three characteristics. It is deliberative: Citizens talk and listen to fellow citizens who may disagree with them. It is collaborative: Citizens actually roll up their sleeves and work together, building or saving or producing goods. And it creates civic relationships and partnerships among people who want to improve the world together.

If you are not doing civic work, you should think about getting involved. Many thousands of college students are volunteers and activists. If you are already active, you should connect with other people who are also involved. Even if they work on different issues or come from different communities, they face the same challenges.

For instance, why does our political system cater to professionally led, well-funded

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Showing the homeless aloha Coming from a town where seeing more than one homeless person was a big deal, Hawaiʻi has truly opened my eyes to homelessness. This land is known for aloha, a spirit of love and care among its people and the land.

As an outsider, the love people have for one another feels tangible, which leads me to ask: How is the number of homeless people so high when aloha means ‘their pain is our pain’?

I’m currently a senior at the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa; this semester, I was fortunate to take a class in which I could advocate for homelessness, an issue I’m passionate about. When I took a small survey among the UH students, I found that the high majority of students care about the issue and would get involved if they knew how. After referring them to the organizations that I knew of, I realized something. The love and care for the homeless was like a bucket being filled with sympathy, when it should instead be a flowing pipeline taking that love and care and turning it into action and progress.

We shouldn’t have to wait indefinitely until an organization comes along to actively do something about the issue. It starts with us with little actions like changing the way we interact with the homeless on a daily basis. If we all take the time to show our compassion for those we walk past each day, we will get somewhere.

Looking at the issue of homelessness, I personally cannot solve it. Though I can do my part by being that pipeline of love to those on the streets. Whether it is with a smile, through conversation, with a blanket I don’t use anymore or with an 89-cent bagel, it’s easy to be a part of the solution. If we start by actively showing our love and care for those on the streets through simple gestures, I believe we’ll gain more ground on the issue of homelessness. If we allow it, aloha can be powerful and uplifting to all, homeless and non-homeless alike, and only then will we see true change and progress on this difficult issue.
