University starts work on Daniel K. Inouye Center NOELLE F UJII News Editor Construction on the Daniel K. Inouye Center for Democratic Leadership is expected to start in the fall as the university begins work on the pre-design phase.

Clifford Planning & Architecture LLC and Pei Cobb Freed & Partners LLP are the design team for the project. The university hired the firms in late November to help align the new center’s programs with concepts for the new building.

“And once we have that in better alignment, once we are better in understanding our opportunities for the building, then we can move to a new phase to get into more of the technicalities of the building itself,” said Denise Konan, Dean of the College of Social Sciences and academic lead for the center. “So this is still a very early phase of the process.”

Konan said they hope to have reports that will help guide the university in understanding what the options are in March or April.

“So then I think we will use that to develop our approach,” Konan said. “And so our hope is that we will have that together next academic year. So construction could start next academic year.”

The Board of Regents approved $5 million for the Inouye Center in October. The center will serve as a living tribute, honoring the legacy of Sen. Daniel Inouye, who was elected to the U.S. Senate in 1962 and earned the Medal of Honor for his heroism during World War II. Inouye passed away on Dec. 17, 2012.

C A R RY I N G A L E GAC Y Stephen Meder, Assistant Vice Chancellor for Physical, Environmental and Long Range Planning, said the purpose of the Inouye Center is to benefit the state, region and country.

“It’s broader than Mānoa in that it’s really to serve future generations in the state of Hawai‘i,” Meder said. “And provide an inspiring record of this man’s legacy. So we’re really looking at it to serve the people of Hawai‘i, the region and the country.”

The center will house seven academic programs that look at civic engagement, civic responsibility and serving in the public sphere sector.

“It’s not just a library or a repository for his work, but that it should have a living legacy associated with it,” Konan said. “So we’re working with faculty right now to design academic programs that would be affiliated with the center.”

Konan said the center will also archive Inouye’s congressional papers.

“It’s most appropriate for those to be at the f lagship research campus because we will have the faculty who would be pursuing research based on the papers,” she said.

There will also be an oral history project that faculty are working on proposing.

According to Konan, the College of Social Sciences is also looking at

putting together a degree in Public Policy or Public Affairs.

“This is an area where the College of Social Sciences has history, and we think with the Inouye Center it will position us really well to have a world-class program in this area,” Konan said.

The center will develop academic programs on policy and leadership programs, an Inouye Fellows program, Hawai‘i Democratic Leadership partnerships, a lecture series and museum partnerships.

“His legacy is an important one because I think in many ways he represented (the) best of Hawai‘i and some of the issues Hawai‘i faces,” Konan said.

Konan said the university also sees opportunities to bring students in and have programs oriented to students understanding that with public service comes great responsibility. The center expects to serve the community, drawing in residents with activities and programs.

“In our public policy initiative we will be getting together faculty from really multiple disciplines to look at consequential public policy issues and to provide research and insights that will inform the community in a way that we hope will elevate the dialogue,” Konan said.

A T E M P O R A RY H OM E The center is slated to replace Henke Hall.

Archiving Sen. Inouye’s legacy

Sen. Inouye’s congressional papers are currently stored in Jefferson Hall, according to archivist Ellen Chapman. She said his collection incorporates approximately 1,400 boxes.

Inouye’s collection is closed until 2028.

Chapman said it’s common for congressional papers to be closed for 15 years once they’re donated.

“Partly because they’re large collections,

According to Konan, Henke Hall is ideal because of its proximity to Hamilton Library, Jefferson Hall and the East-West Center.

“It’s near the East-West Center, and we see that there are going to be synergies with the East-West Center,” Konan said. “So it seemed like a very ideal location for what we want, which is to have this be a new gateway to the university and a public space.”

Meder said the Henke Hall location has not been fi nalized as the location for the center.

The Planning Office currently uses it as a storage location. It houses the School of Social Work, the Center for Biographical Research, a snail lab, a shark lab, the student center for the Pacific Island Studies program and offices for some of the theater faculty.

Occupants will be moved to Gartley Hall or Kuykendall Annex.

Noreen Mokuau, Dean for the School of Social Work, thinks the hall is a great place for the center.

“I think it’s a great spot for the Inouye Center,” Mokuau said.

“I mean this piece of property off East-West Road. It’s a beautiful spot for the Inouye Center, so I think it’s a great idea.”

Her center will be moving to Gartley Hall, once construction is completed. She said she is looking forward to the move.

“We have waited for quite some time to be some tenants of a building that can accommodate us in class-

it takes a while to process them,” Chapman said. “And partly because there are a lot of hot political issues, and the donor usually likes to wait until these things cool off a little bit.”

Chapman said the Hawai‘i Congressional Papers Collection Archives and Manuscripts Department will hire two archival technicians as well as a Head of Congressional Papers Collection.

rooms because currently in Henke there are no classrooms, so our students are spread out around campus,” Mokuau said. “So in Gartley what it will mean is, we’ll have faculty offices in one building as well as classrooms for our students. So we are actually looking forward to the move.”

OPPORTUNITIES FOR STUDENTS Konan said there will be many opportunities for students to get involved with the center.

“Some are around the kind of research that the faculty will want to do around the papers and the archives and the oral history,” Konan said. “Students could get involved in that. Students could also get involved in some of these programs that we hope to design for the high-school students and the community.”

UH Mānoa alumna Kelly Park is the project assistant for the center.

“The main reason for getting involved in this project is because I see the great value and unique opportunity that this project can bring to students,” Park said. “This project will entail activities and programs for students to creatively explore civic engagement, grow personal and professional leadership, find mentors in our community and discover their important role and responsibility in the community.”

Students who have any ideas or concerns about the center can email Konan at konan@hawaii.edu.

Archiving congressional papers includes making sure all of the files and papers have been received as well as transferring them to archival, acid-free folders and boxes.

“So our goal is for us to preserve everything for hundreds of years so anybody can use them,” Chapman said.

Chapman said the archiving process is expected to take three years.

Too much sugar, not so great oils and expensive? We did too. Then we thought, why not make our own instead choosing organic, highly nutritious ingredients like Goji berries, local mac nuts, Kauai dried pineapple, flax and sunflower seeds. Then kick out the canola and cane sugar and choose organic coconut oil and local raw honey.

You could even make it in your dorm room toaster oven. And at just $.78 per 1/4 cup serving, it won’t break the budget. Stop by Kokua for UH Student Sidney Morrow’s creation or check out our bulk bins to make your own creation.

Opinions

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Utilizing University Health Services

Questionable sources I recently stumbled across the article “Could the HPV vaccine be a lie?” Although this article resides in the Opinions section, it claims an alarming number of facts that can only be corroborated by dubious news sources such as The Inquisitr and newswire. net, which at first glance sound legitimate, but even by their own admission are “a community of independent journalists.”

According to newswire.net, “members publish news and press releases on their own behalf, and for their custom-

ers.” Membership on newswire.net is as easy as providing an email address, username and password.

Nowhere on the FDA website could I find Kim Luz’s claims that “the vaccination can increase the risk of developing precancerous cells by 44.6 percent in some women.” In fact, I found a bullet point on the FDA’s site saying that the vaccine is for the prevention of precancerous cells.

Have you ever used the Health Services at the University? Did you know that each semester we pay a fee of $78 per semester for the student body to have the Health Center available? As students, I feel it is important to know all the services provided to us. I have visited the Health Services before, but until recently, I did not know that the Health Services had a Women’s Clinic. This clinic provides services such as emergency contraception, family planning, screening and treatment for sexually transmitted infections, pregnancy testing and more.

Being a young woman, I feel it is important to make smart choices involving my own body. Knowing that we have a women’s health clinic on campus is reas-

suring. Having resources that are quick and close is something all women at the university should know about. If you’re not from here, coming to school in a different state and being away from family can be difficult. Living away from things we are familiar with makes situations regarding health more stressful and scary. The more we as students are informed about local services, the easier our lives will be. Especially since now we are supposed to be adults making well thought out decisions, knowing there is a place on campus to go for contraception and other women’s health services is just something important for all female students to be aware of.

‘Bows battle Long Beach State in conference doubleheader H AYLEY MUSASHI Associate Sports Editor @H AYLEYELYSE The University of Hawai‘i men’s volleyball team returns to the court after an impressive showing in the Outrigger Volleyball Invitational to host a pair of conference matches against fourthranked Long Beach State.

E A R LY S E A S O N S U C C E S S While the No. 14 Rainbow Warriors (2-1) would eventually fall to UCLA in the championship match of last weekend’s tournament, Hawai‘i handily defeated Ohio State and Penn State en route to Saturday’s matchup.

“It kind of validates all the hard work the guys have been putting into it,” head coach Charlie Wade said. “We did get a couple of nice wins against what are traditionally some pretty good programs, so just something to build on. Some nice stuff came out of this weekend. A lot of guys got to play, so I think everyone’s feeling pretty good about how the team has started.”

In Saturday’s finale, outside hitters Sinisa Zarkovic and Jace Olsen, who each tallied 13 kills, led the Warriors. Zarkovic, an all-tournament selection, fi nished the Invitational with a team-best 44 kills but hit a season-low hitting percentage of .207 against the Bruins. Middle blocker Nick West, who was also named to the all-tournament team, racked up nine kills and three blocks.

“It’s all experience,” Olsen said. “I had a pretty good match against UCLA, which is a conference team. But I know those two East Coast teams. They’re ranked pretty high. But it’s nothing like MPSF competition night in and night out. A lot of us are ready to get back on the court, show the community what we got, let them know that last year wasn’t a fluke, that we’re here to stay and that we’re here to contend for a national championship.”

49E R S L O O K T O S T R I K E G O L D Long Beach heads to the Aloha State having already begun conference play against Cal Baptist and most recently, Brigham Young. LBSU made quick work of Cal Baptist, sweeping the match and hitting .455 for the evening. The 49ers continued their conference-opening four-match road swing when they visited BYU on Saturday evening and fell 3-1. The Cougars, who are defending MPSF champions and 2013 NCAA finalists, evened their record to 2-2 while improving to 2-0 in the MPSF. Senior Taylor Crabb led the 49ers with a team-high 22 kills and nine digs while hitting at a .306 clip. Sophomore Andrew Whitt followed with a career-high 10 kills and five digs.

F R E S H FAC E S While the Warriors certainly have to battle to take home a pair of victories this week, it is clear that they have the confidence in each other and the staff to make that happen.

“We keep coming back to camarade-

ADMISSION WITH VALID

rie,” Olsen said. “Last year we had a lot of new guys coming in the gym that were older, but we also had 14 new faces. This year we have five new faces, and they’re all freshmen. We have no transfers coming in. We have nobody from different schools. The competition in the practice gym is rigorous. If we’re not performing we’re going to be on that bench.”

Along with the addition of the talented group of underclassmen, the recent hiring of assistant coach Milan Zarkovic, father of Sinisa, has sparked the enthusiasm and energy level on the court.

“The main difference is also that man over there, Milan Zarkovic,” Olsen said.

“We talked a lot. We had a lot of discussions in the locker about what’s different. He’s the father figure that we have in and out of the practice gym, in and out of the locker room.

I mean, he comes in, and it’s the little things – the pats on the back, the rubs on the ear – it just shows that he cares more about us than we ever thought. You come in every day, and you want to play for that guy.”
