LETTER FROM THE EDITOR TINA YAN Welcome back - or should I start with nice to meet you?

You’re now here on a campus with 18,000 other students who came here to join the Rainbow Warriors ohana. Whether you joined because you were interested in living right next to the beach, which sadly is not true, or you wanted to go to one of the most diverse schools in our country, which is true - you are now here attending school at the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa. With your help, our campus is now built on those 18,000 students to help bring in different experiences, perspectives, opinions and goals.

It’s a new year with completely new possibilities. In 2016, we could decide on voting in the first female president or Donald Trump, a phenomenon in our country’s history. Not only are we

waiting to elect our new President, but our own state’s representatives are up for re-election.

To help you become an informed voter this fall, look to page 20. To catch up on what to lookout for in the future, see page 21.

This issue, we’re covering topics from how to lock up your bike so you don’t become that person on everyone’s email alerts and playlists to get you excited about this upcoming semester to Fall TV and book previews. If you think you forgot something at home all the way in California or didn’t get that bedding set you really wanted, don’t worry, you are not alone in your struggle for help this August. Turn to page 6, to help you remember those important deadlines. Still trying to figure out what classes to take since you didn’t make that wait list? Check

out which credit-filling classes to take on page 8. Bought that minifridge the first week and then realized you really did not need it?

Check out page 18 for return policies around O‘ahu.

Ka Leo is here to help either by giving you articles to help you prepare for the year or being there on those rainy days when you have no other option than to grab an issue and cover your head with it. If you need something to read in between those Facebook videos and Snapchat Stories during walks across campus, head to our newly redesigned app, Mānoa Now, available on the App Store.

To all of those students returning to the University of Hawai‘ i and for those who are just joining us for the first time: Welcome, we’re glad to have you.

Credit-filling classes to take this year One last hope to fill your semester

BROOKE ALCURAN / OPINIONS EDITOR UH Mānoa offers a wide variety of majors, minors, master’s and doctorate degrees. With all of the options comes a large number of engaging classes that you may not be able to find at another university. Heading into my last year in college, I needed to find some of the best classes to fill up an empty credit load. What are some of the best courses you can take at UH Mānoa that are fun, interesting, and do not require too many prerequisites?

KRS 102, Aerobic Fitness DEPARTMENT

WHERE

Department of Kinesiology and Rehabilitation Science

Physical Education/Athletic Complex 245

KRS 102 is a group exercise class where students not only engage in physical activities but also learn about different muscle groups and what exercises activate them.

“In the past, [the class] was a high impact, high intensity dance type of class set to music, [like] ‘Jazzercise,’” says instructor Katherine Kim. Now, Kim says the class includes “variations such as step aerobics, high/low intensity aerobics, low impact

aerobics, ‘Spinning’ power cycling aerobics, hula aerobics, pole dancing aerobics, ‘Curves’ circuit training studio, Zumba workouts, aerobic classes utilizing handheld weights or bar weights, jump rope workouts and cross training” and more.

KRS 102 is perfect for the person who is looking to get fit and stay motivated to keep exercising.

DEPARTMENT

WHERE

Department of Music

Music Building 201

Did you know that this class requires no previous singing experience? Class Voice I, taught by lecturer of music Jane Kerns, encourages its students to “explore his/ her voice, listen to other singers, and perform songs in a supportive class environment.” Besides learning vocal technique, breath control and musicality, Kerns wants students to walk away from the class with

more self-confidence. In addition, students are required to perform three songs, one trio, one duo, one solo and write three short observations on three vocal performances. She hopes the class is empowering for students and that it will open their eyes to their vocal potential.

DEPARTMENT

WHERE

Hawai‘inuiākea School of Hawaiian Knowledge

Sakamaki, First Floor; Webster, First Floor

The Elementary Hawaiian class can fill your second language general education requirement while also enriching you in a language that originated in this state. Students learn the Hawaiian language through a system called Papahana Hāloa, which was created and developed by associate professor of Hawai‘ inuiākea School of Hawaiian Knowledge Dr. Samuel No‘eau Warner.

“Some classes incorporate mele (song), oli (chants), ‘ōlelo no‘eau (proverbs), [and] mo‘olelo (stories),” said HAW 101 teacher

Ron Kekaha Solis.

Classes also visit Ka Papa Lo‘i o Kānewai, the Hawaiian cultural research and outreach center housed in the School of Hawaiian Knowledge. Kānewai is the only venue in Honolulu that provides an authentic Hawaiian learning experience, pu‘uhonua and lo‘ i. The most important reason why HAW 101 is a cool course to take: because where else in the world can you take a class on the Hawaiian language?

Cheap textbooks and where to find them Saving money the smart way CHANEL DIAS / STAFF WRITER College students are always looking for ways to keep their wallets and their bank accounts full by finding cheaper alternatives for college essentials, especially when it comes to purchasing textbooks. According to the College Board, students who attend a four-year public college are currently spending up to $1,298 alone in textbooks and supplies per year.

eTextbooks

“The textbooks are extremely expensive [at campus bookstores] and at times the students, such as myself, don’t even need or use the textbooks at all,” said Mary Pinkam, who currently attends Windward Community College as an arts major.

There are several notable establishments worth looking at when looking to purchase books this semester.

Amazon

Open Textbooks

FREE DOWNLOAD

Because some textbooks are often heavy, downloading eTextbooks have saved students both their money and the strain of their muscles.

This easy method provides the students the digital versions of their physical textbooks on the iPad or other digital tablets, and may be sold or rented for half the retail price usually seen at campus bookstores.

For example, the hardcover tenth edition of “The Theory and Practice of Counseling and Psychotherapy” by Gerald Corey currently sells on Amazon at $195.82 for a new edition, at $181.42 for a used edition, but at $108.49 on the Kindle.

According to today.com, the average price of a single textbook can range between $40 to $200, and when multiplied by the number of classes the students takes, the cost will most likely take a huge toll on their budget.

“Not only are students choosing not to purchase the materials they are assigned by their professor, but they are knowingly accepting the risk of a lower grade to avoid paying for the textbook,” one study by the U.S. Public Interest Research Group reported on USA TODAY. In order to properly view the entire content, students who are considering purchasing eTextbooks must take into account that they are not meant for NOOKs or other mobile devices due to their limited screen size.

Students are reluctant to keep most or all of their textbooks once the semester is over and many college bookstores (if purchased from them) will allow students to return their books in order to receive a refund of only half of what they originally paid for.

Companies like Amazon have the available option of renting textbooks for up to 70 percent less than the original bookstore price. Students may also rent eligible Kindle textbooks for their desktops, laptops or smartphones without the aid of a Kindle.

“With Textbook Rental, Amazon gives students yet another great option for saving money,” said Ripley McDonald, who serves as the Director of Textbooks at Amazon.com. “It’s now easier than ever for students to get the books they need, in the format they want, at affordable prices.”

An open-source textbook is a course material created under an open license, and is published online through the support of universities or other companies. It is easily accessed by print, digital formats, audio formats or e-books, and best of all, purchased at little or no cost.

Students who wish to use open textbooks should ask their professors if using open textbooks is an option for their classes.

“A major motivation for me was certainly the desire to save students money,” San Jose State University professor Matthew J. Holian said on assigning open textbooks for his students.

“However, I also want to make the material easy to access, for example, by sending students PDF documents, or by copying and pasting sections of the text into emails and so on. So it is not just that the books are free, but they are also easy to access.”

OpenStax College runs as a nonprofit institution based at Rice University that provides free educational material organized for books and other academic coursework for a handful of courses.

“What was once a futuristic ideal has become mainstream,” said Martha Kanter, who served as an undersecretary of education for open educational resources from 2009 to 2013. “OpenStax College has more than proven it can sustain its nonprofit model. It has clearly shown there is a tremendous demand for high-quality, open textbooks that serve a diverse population of college students.”

Navigating online databases Be prepared for those long essays

KRYSTAL KAKIMOTO INTERN

A database is a collection of data that users can access to sift through the myriad of information available. By knowing a little more about databases, a greater extent of information will be available for your use.

OneSearch Mānoa is the online method to search through the holdings of the UH system.

Through OneSearch, access to millions of items is available, however, OneSearch is not capable of examining all the databases the UH system has access to. There are over 400 databases that UH subscribes to, organized by disci-

plines with coverage of nearly every major offered at UH. By combining searches of OneSearch with a database offering specialized information of your field, you can cull both summary and focused information.

When searching within a specific database, Boolean operators are often used (AND, OR, and NOT) to combine terms and create search strings, but the use of the database's thesaurus can be very useful. A database’s thesaurus provides a fixed list of terms and related expressions that the user can use during their search. This will aid in returning appropriate information as well as broaden the searcher’s inquiry to related questions they never thought of.

Another hidden information gem is LibGuides. LibGuides showcase and utilize the library’s holdings and are often created by a subject specialist. OneSearch offers nearly 100 LibGuides available in topics ranging from accounting to zoology. The LibGuides at OneSearch will present materials related to your discipline, how you can access them and who to contact for more information.

By using these simple tips, your searches can be more accurate and precise. For more information visit library.manoa.hawaii.edu or seek aid from a reference librarian.

Scholarships

ERYN YUASA / BUSINESS EDITOR

Starting college sometimes comes with the notion of being a “broke college student” who lives off of cup noodles and leftovers from the cafeteria. While this could be true, there is one thing you can do to help you financially survive your college experience: scholarships.

So you're not under the sea of debt GENERAL TIPS OF ADVICE FOR SCHOLARSHIP SEEKERS: Put in the time and effort. It might seem like a tedious process to apply for multiple scholarships, but remember that one scholarship can be worth thousands of dollars. The time you put in now can be what helps you financially in the future.

Choose scholarships that will work for you. Make sure that the cause or the mission of the scholarships you apply for is something that you are passionate about.

It’ll shine through in your application.

This list is by no means comprehensive. There are thousands of scholarships out there and with a little bit of work, you will find ones that fit what you’re looking for. For more resources, you should meet with your advisor or the financial aid department.

Online databases can be accessed at the Hamilton Library or Sinclair Library.

HAWAI‘I COMMUNITY FOUNDATION

COURAGE TO GROW SCHOLARSHIP The Courage to Grow Scholarship is available to U.S. citizens who are attending college with a GPA of 2.5 or better.

One $500 scholarship is awarded every month. The scholarship application consists of a 250-word essay asking applicants why you believe you should be awarded the scholarship. Applications are due on the last day of every month.

This is one of Hawai‘i’s biggest scholarships foundations. The great thing about the Hawai‘ i Community Foundation is that it not only enters you for one scholarship but all the scholarships available in its system that you may eligible for. However, you may need to create additional essays for specific scholarships you qualify for on the site.

Each scholarship has different criteria, but generally you have to be a full-time student with a minimum 2.7 cumulative grade point average and be a resident of the State of Hawai‘i.

Make sure to get your application in

by February 2017 for the next school year.

STAR SCHOLARSHIPS There was over $7 million in scholarship funding available to Mānoa students for the upcoming school year, and if that number doesn’t encourage you to apply then the ease of the application process will. These scholarships are specifically for students that are a part of the University of Hawai‘i system.

There are multiple ways you can search for a scholarship that fits you.

The scholarships on STAR have a deadline in February 2017, see the website for more official details.

BOARD OF REGENTS PRESIDENTIAL SCHOLARSHIPS This is one of the university’s top scholarships for incoming juniors to UH Mānoa who are full-time students. Any bona fide resident of Hawai‘i with a cumulative 3.7 college GPA is eligible and the scholarship will cover full tuition and grant a $4,000 a year stipend. The application typically has to be received by January for the following year. More information can be found on the website.

HAMILTON LIBRARY ADDITION

MARINE SCIENCE BUILDING TABLES

The main body of the Hamilton Library is often filled with students, and it can be very hard to find space to study. A short walk further will lead you to the much less populated Hamilton Addition. This part of the library is more convenient for finding a place to sit and work. The Hamilton Addition is just as cold as the main Hamilton Library, so bring a jacket to keep warm. You will still have access to the UH Wi-Fi and won’t need to worry about being interrupted.

Just outside of the Marine Science Building are tables that are usually vacant or filled for only a few minutes at a time with students waiting for their classrooms to open. Unlike other outdoor tables around campus, these ones are covered by the building’s roof to protect you from the Mānoa rain as you get your homework done. While the roof protects from the rain, it does not protect from other outdoor elements such as the wind, so be sure to keep track of your papers so they don’t blow away.

STIR FRESH

BIO MED/AGRICULTURAL SCIENCE BUILDINGS

Located on the first floor of Campus Center, Stir Fresh offers a convenient spot to camp out and get all of the studying and homework you may have piled up done. Because Stir Fresh is a restaurant, it is the perfect place to study as well as take a lunch break. However, this means that it's more crowded during peak eating hours, from around noon to 1:30 p.m. Stir Fresh is open from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., so in order to guarantee seating, plan to get there early.

If you’re willing to make the trek to the top of campus, these two buildings are right across the street from each other and offer secluded spots to study. The Agricultural Science building has a lobby on the first floor of the building featuring cubicles and a communal table for studying. The air conditioning and silence are definitely a plus. The Bio-Med building has tables outside in a courtyard that are also often empty. At the Bio-Med building, you will be open to the elements so prepare for the rain, wind or heat.

HOW TO properly lock your bicycle REESE KATO / PHOTOS EDITOR

Getting out of your last class to find out that your bicycle has gone missing is one of the worst things that could happen.

Luckily, there are multiple ways to prevent thieves from stealing your bike on campus.

LOCATION Always lock your bike up at one of the provided areas on the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa campus. Although you could lock up against a signpost or pole, you will be at risk of a parking ticket. There are also certain signposts that can be taken apart if someone really wants to take your bike. If locking up outside of campus, be sure to do so in a well-lit and high traffic area.

HOW TO LOCK Locking your bicycle properly is key to ensure its safety, and it’s very simple. No matter which lock you use, always lock one wheel and the frame to the bike rack. In doing this, you have secured your frame and at least one wheel.

RIDING IN O‘AHU

BICYCLE WORK STATIONS

NOTES

Investing in some tools is a must if you want to keep your bicycle in optimal condition. There will be days when you forget a wrench at home or need to fill your tires.

Luckily, there are two stations on campus, one near Campus Center and the other outside Hamilton Library, which have most tools you need to give your bike a quick tune. The station outside Campus Center has a bicycle pump as well.

Never lock just a wheel alone to the rack. If the thief has a wrench to remove a wheel, they can take your whole bike minus one wheel.

Be sure that your lock is connecting your bike to the rack. There have been countless times where there are good locks on a bicycle, but the bicycle was not attached to the bike rack. A thief could just pick up the bike and walk away with it.

LOCKS There are tons of different bicycle locks sold at the store and you want to make sure you get the right one. You will want to get a U-Lock as your primary lock. Since U-Locks are made of metal, there is a very low chance someone will cut through it. They come with a lock built into it, so there is no need to worry about getting a separate padlock either. Two popular and trusted brands are Kryptonite and OnGuard. Cable locks are okay to use to secure parts such as your seatpost or wheels to your frame, but they can be easily cut and should not be used as your only lock. There are also heavy duty chain locks. They are secure, but the trade off is that they are heavy.

TIPS AND TRICKS Certain bicycles will have wheels and seatposts with a quick release, which allows you to quickly remove the part using an attached lever, without any tools. What many people do is take off their front wheel and lock it alongside their back wheel and their frame. As for the seatpost, some just take it with them.

Stick to the gym You can go from zero to hero

There are bike lanes throughout the island that you can use to get around on your bicycle. The King Street Cycle Track is a protected, two-way bike lane that runs along the length of King Street. Use the bike lanes when available because in areas such as business districts (Waikīkī, Downtown) riding a bicycle on the sidewalk is illegal. When there is no bike lane, cyclists are allowed to use the whole right lane as long as a good pace is kept. Use the left lane on a one way street.

KIMBERLEE SPEAKMAN / MANAGING EDITOR

Go to the gym and get in shape. These are resolutions many students make, but fail to meet due to classes, laziness or other commitments getting in the way. The Warrior Rec Center on campus is free for students and easily accessible. However, many students don’t take advantage of the building. For students who need some motivation to head to the gym and stick with it, here’s a guide to keeping the gym resolution.

SET A GOAL

ADD GYM TIME TO YOUR SCHEDULE

BRING A BUDDY

CHANGE IT UP

Most times, getting in shape and being healthy can easily be put aside in favor of other things like hanging out with friends or sleeping. If you don’t have a goal, it’s easier to let yourself get distracted. Simply wanting to “get in shape” isn’t enough. Give yourself an achievable, specific goal like losing a certain amount of body fat or working on a certain part of your body at the gym for a specific amount of hours. Then set a date to achieve your goal by. An example for a goal could be: “I will work out my calves for two hours every Monday and Wednesday until this time next month to tone my legs.”

You probably already have a class schedule and a work schedule laid out, so why not add in some gym time to those schedules? Think of the gym as something you have to do that is just as important as a class or work. When you make working out a part of your schedule, it becomes harder to ignore. Also, if you follow your schedule diligently, you’ll begin to form a habit of going to class and working out.

If you bring a friend, you’ll have a spotter no matter what. Friends can help challenge and cheer you on when you’re striving to reach a goal in the gym. There is no better encouragement than that of a friend when you’re struggling at the gym. They can also liven up your gym experience because you won’t be doing the exercises alone. Also, you may find yourself excited to get to the gym to just hang out with your friend and catch up.

Sometimes working out the same way over and over again can get boring and repetitive. If you feel this way, it may be time to change up your routine. Most gyms have more than one kind of machine that can help you achieve your goal. For example if you are working on toning your arms and just keep using the bicep machine, you may want to grab some weights and a yoga ball and work out that way. Feel free to spice up your routine.

MAN ON THE STREET

What are you looking forward to?

BROOKE ALCURAN / OPINIONS EDITOR

If you are reading this, you have probably felt some feelings of summer time blues. Although school is back in session, there is a sense of excitement for the new opportunities of the beginning of a new academic year. UH Mānoa students share what they are looking forward to, what challenges they foresee and what they hope to accomplish in the upcoming year – from seeing and meeting new colleagues to graduating.

What I’m looking forward to the most when the school year starts in the Fall is taking up Thai and seeing my colleagues in my organic chemistry class.

I look forward to finishing up remedial math, writing grants and maybe winning something. Getting paid again. Hopefully my article is accepted this time around!

I am looking forward to challenging myself with courses that were not offered to me in high school. I also look forward to meeting new people who have not seen the awkward side of me yet.

I’m looking forward to advancing in my major with my music classes such as conducting. One step closer to graduation!

Six exchange and return policies In case your dorm is a bit of a fixer upper STEPHANIE KIM / ASSOCIATE FEATURES EDITOR

When buying supplies for your dorm room, there are times when you buy something that doesn’t match the feel of the room or just doesn’t work out for you. These six stores have exchange/return policies in case you need to make a change.

How to be an informed voter in November Learn more about the people who just can't wait to be king (or queen) KEVIN HARRISON / NEWS EDITOR

It’s August already and do you know what that means? The 2016 Presidential Election is only about three months away.

However, it is not too late to get involved and be informed. Here are some ways to stay informed about the election, to find out more about the candidates and ways this election could affect college students.

In case you have been ignoring politics altogether, here is a quick summary of what has happened. The Democratic Party has nominated former Secretary of State and First Lady Hillary Clinton for the presidency and the Republican Party has nominated Donald Trump, a billionaire businessman, for president.

STAY INFORMED

LEARN MORE ABOUT THE CANDIDATES

https://www.

Everyone has their own way of getting their news and have differing opinions about these news sources.

Be that as it may, following the news will keep you updated on the latest speeches, debates and campaign activities of the candidates.

News organizations, though, differ in how they cover and report on the campaigns. It can be difficult to tell which news organizations are more biased

than others. A quick internet search for what is wrong or right with either candidate will yield different news sites taking one or presenting both sides.

It might help to read from two or three different sites because what was covered on one may not be on another.

Some sites include CNN, The Washington Post, BBC America and MSNBC.

Both Clinton and Trump have websites for their campaign where you can find their stances on certain issues and find out more about their history. Ontheissues.org is a website which lays out where political leaders stand on issues from abortion to immigration.

News websites and shows are also places to go for candidate information. However, it might help to watch

multiple shows and read several websites for a more complete picture. These will often have full length debates, debate clips and candidate interviews to watch and learn from.

WHY SHOULD STUDENTS CARE?

This is an important election; this country is getting its first new leader in eight years. However, no one has to care about this election. Even though we are getting a new leader, not much may change.

From a policy perspective, both Clinton and Trump appear to be more concerned with K-12 education rather than college education. For that reason, college students may not feel the effects of a new president on their education unless there is

a dramatic budget change at the end of next year.

However, both candidates also have vastly different views regarding immigration and those views could come to affect the international students here.

Trump has, throughout his campaign, been critical of letting Muslims into the U.S. and has been unsupportive of a bilingual America. Clinton, on the other hand, is largely against those views.

Even though international stu-

dents may not be able to vote, they can still be involved in the election season by voicing their opinions on the candidates and encouraging people to vote for one side or the other.

It is important, though, to vote because if you want change to happen in America, you have to vote for the change that you want.

2016 WELCOME BACK SPECIAL ISSUE

Things to come in 2017 and beyond

NICHOLAS FUJII / STAFF WRITER

2017 is coming in hot with Election Day on Nov. 8 and Inauguration Day on Jan. 20, 2017. From there, no one knows what the new presidency may have in store for us. Regardless of who becomes the next president, here are a few things we should be on the lookout for within the next year.

A new US Supreme Court Justice

01

SOURCE: HICKYDOO / FLICKR

Associate Justice Antonin Scalia died on Feb. 13, 2016. This created a situation that hasn’t been seen since 1895: a Democratic president had the opportunity to nominate a Supreme Court Justice while Congress was Republican controlled. Scalia was one of the more conservative members of the court, and replacing him with a more liberal judge would shift the power balance between the Democrats, who are more liberal, and Republicans, who are more conservative.

On March 16, 2016, President Obama nominated Merrick Garland to fill the vacancy.

The Senate has refused to vote on the nomination for 159 days at the time of writing, longer than any other U.S. Supreme Court nomination in history. We can also expect that Congress will not vote until after the presidential election.

Hawai‘i minimum wage increase

02

In 2014, Hawai‘i was one of the first states to meet Obama’s goal of increasing minimum wage across the country. The state legislature voted in April 2014 to raise the minimum wage to $10.10 by 2018. By Jan. 1, 2017, the minimum wage in Hawai‘i will be $9.25 per hour, and will increase again on Jan. 1, 2018

to $10.10 per hour. In the next year, we will see if the increasing wage will have a detrimental or positive effect on our local economy.

Brexit: the UK leaves the European Union

03

SOURCE: JAY-JERRY / FLICKR

On June 23, 2016, the United Kingdom (UK) held a referendum to withdraw from the European Union (EU). Across the UK, 52 percent of people voted to leave, which has started a complex withdrawal process that is expected to take at least two years. UK Prime Minister David Cameron resigned in the aftermath of the vote and attracted heavy criticism for calling the vote and dividing the country.

The new Prime Minister, Theresa May, appointed several new Cabinet members

during her first month including appointing the former Mayor of London, Boris Johnson, to Foreign Secretary, the equivalent of the U.S. Secretary of State.

It is difficult to say how Brexit will affect the UK and the world economy in the coming years. With widespread economic fears, the UK may have to renegotiate trade deals and wrestle with the other consequences of leaving the EU.

The Middle East situation: Terrorism, refugees, and Turkey

04

SOURCE: ROBERT COTIČ / WIKIMEDIA

Due to the Syrian Civil War, Europe and surrounding countries now face a migrant crisis, with over five million refugees fleeing from Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan in fear of war and persecution. European countries now face challenges over this massive influx. In the coming year, how Europe handles these refugees will have drastic geopolitical consequences. Our next president-elect may also have an effect on this situation, depending on their stance.

There are sure to be many events in 2017 that will shake up the nation and the world. Though we can’t predict the future, the people have the power to push our country in one of two directions. So, we should all make sure to vote on Nov. 8.

Turkey became involved in the Syrian Civil War in 2011 and has received 2.6 million Syrian refugees. This situation played a large part in the Turkish attempted military coup on July 15. Now, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan has acted to censor Turkish academics and prevent thousands from leaving the country. We may soon see a great change in Turkey.

FOUR BIG EVENTS THIS UPCOMING FALL SEMESTER ASUH FALL SPECIAL ELECTION BLAIZE SANCHEZ / CONTRIBUTING WRITER

The University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa can be a large school to maneuver at times and many new students may get lost in all the new information. Here are four major events happening on campus this fall that may help you meet new people and enrich your UH experience.

GREEK LIFE

MIKE MOZART / KA LEO O HAWAI‘I

The Associated Students of the University of Hawai‘ i (ASUH) is the student body government here at UH. For those who were part of student government in high school or want to take on a leadership position, the ASUH election is a

great opportunity to do so. Many members of ASUH have gone on to have great careers in politics, such as the late K. Mark Takai. ASUH is a great platform where you can do a lot for your community and get involved with the UH student body.

MIKE MOZART / KA LEO O HAWAI‘I

As of fall 2016, UH has three sororities: Alpha Gamma Delta, Beta Beta Gamma and Phi Mu. Additionally, there are two fraternities: Kappa Sigma and Tau Kappa Epsilon.

Greek life is a way to meet other students as well as serve the community and help build a networking system.

The emphasis of these sororities and fraternities is to get involved in the community. They also spend

their time engaging in philanthropy, serving the community and raising money for charity. Several members hold scattered leadership positions on campus such as being part of Associate Students of the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa (ASUH). These organizations will be tabling the first two weeks of the semester at Campus Center.

MAHALO MĀNOA

HOMECOMING WEEK

MIKE MOZART / KA LEO O HAWAI‘I

This fall, many students may be experiencing their first Thanksgiving away from their family. For these students, ASUH hosts a canned food drive and Thanksgiving dinner that students may participate in.

Food, live entertainment and prizes will be provided for all full-time

undergraduates with a validated student ID. If you love Thanksgiving and contributing to the community during the holiday season, then this event is for you. All the cans collected will be donated to Hawai‘i Food Bank.

There are multiple events happening this semester at UH Mānoa.

With over 250 Registered Independent Organizations (RIO) and five different Chartered Student Organizations (CSO), there are a variety of clubs and organizations to look

into as well. For more information about events and organizations happening around campus, visit the Student Life and Development office at Campus Center Room 208, or visit their website.

MIKE MOZART / KA LEO O HAWAI‘I

Homecoming is a celebration of our past as well as our future.

From welcoming back our alumni to campus to the pep rallies leading up to the football game that weekend, homecoming is where all Rainbow Warriors come together

and celebrate another year at the University. This year's homecoming football game is on Saturday, Oct. 15 as the UH football team takes on UNLV at Aloha Stadium.

The summer’s weirdest headlines Check out these topsy turvy titles KEVIN HARRISON / NEWS EDITOR

'Tom Hiddleston Won An Award Solely Based On The Fact That He Has An Incredible Ass'

'Potato in Tailpipe Leads to Arson Charge Against Stripper' I’LL TELL YOU EVERYTHING...

According to this Buzzfeed story, "The Avengers" actor Tom Hiddleston has been honored with the Rear of the Year award, an honor bestowed onto British celebrities for their “prize-winning rear assets.”

He won this award after fans voted for him after an episode of "The Night Manager." Past winners include "Harry Potter" star Daniel Radcliffe, British talk show host Graham Norton and "Arrow" actor John Barrowman.

In this NBC Los Angeles story, a Connecticut woman was charged in July, amongst other things, with second degree arson after her boyfriend admitted they set fire to a construction company building.

The suspect, Willow Martin, 19, had apparently been fighting with the construction company’s owner’s daughter at the strip club where they both worked. Martin’s boyfriend, a drug dealer, and Martin herself allegedly went to the victim’s place of business where they broke in, poured gas everywhere and lit everything on fire.

To add insult to injury, Martin and her boyfriend put a potato in the business owner’s tailpipe. However, he found out about the potato and the police were able to get DNA off of it that led them to Martin’s boyfriend.

'Orlando Police Mistook Krispy Kreme Doughnut Glaze for Meth: Report'

'Prophets of doom: World ending in a few hours'

COUNTDOWN TO APOCALYPSE

00.02.32.19 DAYS

In this NBC Miami piece, Daniel Rushing, a 64-year-old Orlando man, was arrested for possession of methamphetamine after a traffic stop in which a police officer saw something resembling the narcotic on the car floor.

The substance was given two field tests, both of which tested positive for amphetamines. Rushing was then arrested, and, despite pleading with officers, was taken to jail. He was not cleared until several weeks later when the state crime lab tested the samples found in Rushing’s car.

The substance was, according to Rushing, actually from a Krispy Kreme doughnut he had eaten earlier. He is now seeking damages from the city.

Hawai‘ i News Now reprinted this story on their website in July about how a group called End Times Prophecies predicted the end of the world to be on July 20, 2016.

According to the prophecy, the Earth goes through reversals of its magnetic poles (i.e. the north pole becomes the south pole and vice versa) and that we are several hundred thousand years late for one.

NASA, however, said it is happening right now and that the flip does not cause any major damage. Clearly, though, if you are reading this, the world did not end.

Everyone wants their dreams to come true. But what happens when your worst nightmare comes to life?

In the horror film “Before I Wake,” Jessie and Mark Hobson (Kate Bosworth and Thomas Jane) take in Cody (Jacob Tremblay), a foster child who refuses to sleep. They soon find that his sleepless nights are because his dreams become reality and they are deadly. Soon Cody’s dreams won’t go away even when he awakes. It is up to the Hobson’s to figure out how to stop them before Cody’s dreams make their lives a living nightmare. This movie will bring your worst nightmares to life, welcoming the sleepless nights to follow.

SOURCE: IMDB

FANTASTIC BEASTS AND WHERE TO FIND THEM NOV. 18

In this mind-boggling Marvel movie, we find that the reality you know may not be exactly as it seems.

The journey begins with Stephen Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch), the world’s top-most brilliant, but arrogant, neurosurgeon. A car accident ends his career, causing Strange to embark on a journey of healing. On his way, he meets the Ancient One (Tilda Swinton), the Earth’s Sorcerer Supreme, who teaches Strange to question the reality he once knew and trains him to take her place. “Doctor Strange” takes place in many different universes, changing the reality we once knew.

Listen up Muggles, a new era of magic is about to begin in J.K. Rowling’s screenwriting debut called “Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them.” The film is a prequel to the “Harry Potter” series and takes place in New York City during the 1920’s. Magizooligist Newt Scamander (Eddie Redmayne) is traveling across the Atlantic when his case of magical creatures breaks loose, threatening both the Wizarding and Muggle world. With the help of Yorker Jacob Kowalski (Dan Fogler) and fellow witch Tina Goldstein (Katherine Waterson), the trio must capture the magical creatures while keeping the wizarding world a secret. The film will enchant young and old Harry Potter fanatics alike, introducing them to the hidden world of magic in America while still remaining nostalgic.

MOANA

ASSASSIN’S CREED

Join Disney’s first Polynesian princess on a voyage across the Pacific Ocean. Moana Waialiki goes on a quest to prove herself as a master navigator and to find out her true identity. While on the water, Moana meets Maui, a shape-shifting demi-god. With her navigational skills and his legendary, magical fishhook, the two sail the open seas. Moana is played by Disney newcomer and O‘ahu-born teen Auli‘ i Cravalho. She is joined

by Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, who plays Maui. Although there is no romance in “Moana,” this newest princess movie is sure to have diehard Disney lovers on the edge of their seats.

After nine award-winning games, the “Assassin’s Creed” franchise is getting its first cinematic experience. Set in the game’s universe, the story begins with main character and criminal Callum Lynch (Michael Fassbender). He escapes execution when rescued by a gang of modern day assassins known as the Creed, and is forced to participate in the Animus Project. The project allows Callum to relive the memories of assassin Aguilar de Nerha, his ancestor during the 15th Century Spanish Inquisition. While traveling to the past, Callum gains knowledge and skill to take down the Creed’s long-standing rival, the Templar Order. If your life is lacking in the parkour action department, check out “Assasin’s Creed.”

For many people, a new year begins on New Year’s Eve. For TV show junkies, it starts in the fall when new shows arrive and old ones come back for a new suspenseful season. Here’s a breakdown of the most anticipated shows for the 2016-2017 TV season.

Do you miss “King of Queens”? Do you just miss seeing Kevin James on TV in general? Then this new show may be for you. In the show, Kevin James plays a retired cop named “Kevin,” which may even be a fun jab at James’ “Mall Cop” movie series.

The only drawback: Leah Remini will not play his wife. Nevertheless, the show seems promising.

“This is Us” hasn’t even premiered yet, but it has already started to turn heads. The new trailer about the NBC drama has garnered over 50 million views on Facebook within 11 days of its release. The premise of the show revolves around different people who share the same birthday and face challenges in their lives that differ. In this way, “This Is Us” is unlike any other show NBC currently has in its lineup.

This fall comedy-drama follows a family with a son that has cerebral palsy. Minnie Driver takes the lead role, Maya DiMeo, a mother who tries to take care of her children in the best way she can. Sitcoms rarely delve into and effectively depict the struggles that come with cerebral palsy, making “Speechless” a new show worth keeping an eye on.

Entering into its sophomore season, “Supergirl” has faced a major network shift from CBS to the CW. While the show will face some monetary cuts in order to fit a smaller network’s budget, the move also means that “Supergirl” is on the same network with fellow DC heroes the Flash and Green Arrow. This means that we could be seeing more crossover episodes between “Supergirl” and any of the other three DC shows on the CW: “Arrow,” “The Flash” and “Legends of Tomorrow."

Reminiscent of creator Ryan Murphy’s other show “American Horror Story," the new season of “Scream Queens” will take place in a psychiatric hospital. The story will follow mean girl Chanel Oberlin, played

by Emma Roberts, and her crew of Chanels, portrayed by Abigail Breslin and Billie Lourd, who will be starting off the season in a mental institution after being charged for the murders in the first season.

Free textbooks become a reality at Pueo Library

CHASE URASAKI / KA LEO O HAWAI‘I 

On Pueo Library's site you can access a complete list of the books held.

KRISTINA KORNEGAY STAFF WRITER

Textbook suppliers are not usually known for being the most sympathetic toward student debt. The student-run Pueo Library is a different case. It costs more to run it than it will ever cost students to borrow from it.

Last fall, Eddie Bond, a graduate student in communicology, started a project with five friends to help others within their department. The idea was that if each of them brought 20 textbooks together, other communicology students could have 100 free

books to borrow from. However, Bond quickly realized they had stumbled upon something much larger.

“I had language. They had different languages. They had math books. They had chemistry. We ended up having books from every department and so we knew right away that it wasn’t just a communicology thing. It was campus wide.”

Bond and his girlfriend, Crystal Clawson, chose to continue building and ended up with the Pueo Library: a collection of books, kept in their own home, that students could borrow from for a semester at a time.

“Initially, this was a protest of

the bookstore’s prices,” Bond said.

“But it’s also somewhat of a protest to the fact that the library doesn’t actually carry textbooks,” said Bond.

“I know I for one have donated my old course books to the library. They took them, but they never put them in circulation. I thought, ‘Well, if they won’t do it, I will.”

The pueo (owl) was chosen to symbolize this protest, as it is considered the guardian of wisdom and knowledge. The library is meant to play the same role in the lives of UH students.

Bond and Clawson have made a serious hobby out of finding school books and have been sure to make a presence on campus at the beginning and end of each semester. They have found donations by hanging around the bookstore during buybacks and accepting books that were too old. Last spring, they could be found at the dorms as students were moving out. Clawson, who had purple and turquoise hair at the time, was able to draw attention to their cause alongside a paper mache owl mascot made by Bond himself.

“They would be like ‘Hey, cool hair. I like the owl. Here’s a book,’” Bond said.

“It was the hair,” Clawson said.

The couple has gone as far as

dumpster diving near the dorms for books. They now have blue bins around campus where students can drop off books they no longer need, but continue to search for donations and cheap books at thrift stores and library sales.

“You have to do a lot of hunting to save money. It’s really a lot of time. We’re doing all that for [students]. We’re going down to Savers and buying every single book that’s on the UH booklist. We’re going to each branch of Savers, each branch of Goodwill, each branch of the local libraries and we’re buying up as many of the books as we can to put them all in one place,” Bond said.

They have purchased roughly 500 books themselves. Combined with the donations they have received from students and professors, the couple has collected over 2,000 books. How much space do the books take up in their home? “All of it,” the two said simultaneously.

This fall, Bond and Clawson plan to turn the Pueo Library into an official club that students and faculty can join. They hope that this will win them a location on campus for their growing collection, as well as a few extra hands to help.

“It’s a lot of work. … Filing them, finding space for them. It’s an uphill

battle sometimes and there’s only the two of us,” Clawson said.

Despite the amount of effort, the couple loves being able to alleviate some of the financial burden for parents and students. They don’t see themselves ever turning the Pueo Library into a source of profit.

“I had a guy find out through a third party about us and he was like, ‘I don’t need any books. I just think what you’re doing is cool and want to buy you lunch. It’s nice to know that people are touched by this,” Bond said. “I’m getting to be known around campus as ‘the book guy.’”

MORE INFO
