UH community has opportunity to save lives JANE CALLAHAN Associate News Editor
Every time the Blood Bank of Hawaiʻi (BBH) comes to the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa campus, students, faculty and staff have the opportunity to save three lives each on their way to class or work. Organized between BBH and the university’s Health Promotion Offi ce, the event provides a chance to help others. Tuesday, Aug. 10, was one of the many times the BBH comes to UHM to collect blood from volunteers, and the nurses were not disappointed. “We come here often and have a good turnout every time,” said Zoe Nguyen, the team leader for the BBH collection. “Only 2 percent of the population donates blood,” Nguyen added, “so this is very helpful.” UH students account for 6.2 percent of total donations on the island. While the summer saw fewer students on campus, 35 donors gave blood on Aug. 10. That is about as much as the bus-cumclinic and supplies can handle, but when beds are set up in places like the Executive Dining Room, BBH sees over 60 donations on the days they come to campus. Student Jeremy Suarez fi rst heard about blood drives a few years ago, when BBH recruiters came into his Kalani High School classroom. A blood transfusion once saved his twin brother’s life, but Suarez does it “just to do a good thing.” He said, “Do it. You never know who you’ll help.” Junior Iris Pangilinan was back for her second donation, with her brother in tow for his fi rst. Her reason for donating was “because it’s a way of giving back.” The majority of donors have participated in blood donation

before. Christine Banziger, a library science major, donated for her fi fth time. “It’s my service to the community. Everyone should give something back, and this is one way to do it,” she said. Nguyen had some advice for those thinking about donating but are fearful of the needles or the process. She suggested thinking about the bigger picture “Try to think about the pain the patient in the hospital is going through in comparison to some temporary discomfort,” she said. Nguy-
en encourages hesitant students to “give it one try. If (you) don’t like it, then you never have to do it again.” Other donors came because they had no reason not to donate. UHM staff member Gary Kabazawa has donated twice before and came to this particular drive because he got a call from BBH. “They call me periodically, so I say, ‘why not?’” The next chance to donate will be on Tuesday, Aug. 31, in the Campus Center Executive Dining Room from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
T H E P RO C E S S The whole process takes roughly an hour from start to fi nish. Before donation, volunteers are given a pamphlet outlining the requirements and restrictions that include no travel to a list of third-world countries in Asia, Africa and South America. Other rules include a weight requirement of 110 pounds or more, no previous use of intravenous drugs, no tattoos or piercings in the last year, and no residence in the United Kingdom between 1980 and 1996.
While there is a list of restrictions, there are also exceptions to the rule. “If you are a vegetarian, but you lived in the United Kingdom during those cited years, then you are not at risk for Mad Cow Disease,” said Nguyen. Specifi cations about requirements are discussed during a brief interview, in which your suitability is determined. With the pamphlet comes basic paperwork followed by time in See Blood drive, page 3

the air-conditioned bus. Then a “mini-physical” and confidential interview about the donor’s lifestyle and health is conducted. In the physical, the donor’s hemoglobin levels are tested. If the level is too low, then the donor has to come back another time. Nguyen explains “low levels come from lack of sleep or food.” She sees this often with college students saying, “young people tend to think they are gung-ho and don’t eat or go exercise (after donating blood). It’s not a good idea.” The drawing phase takes seven to 10 minutes, followed by a brief resting period when snacks are offered. The blood is stored in coolers that are collected every two hours by the BBH for testing and transport to a hospital. Thirteen different tests are performed to ensure safety, including screening for HIV/ AIDS, syphilis, poor liver function, West Nile virus and hepatitis. “If any of those tests come up positive, we do notify the donor,” Nguyen affi rmed.
Laurie Chang, director of communications for BBH, stated that while everything is confidential, “certain positive test results need to reported, by law, to the State Department of Health.” This aids in tracking certain diseases and collects information for community health issues, such as epidemics.
A F T E R D O N AT I O N Blood testing is done fi rst in Washington state, because Hawaiʻi does not have a blood testing facility. Chang clarifies, “The blood has to be approved by the Food and Drug Administration. Because of this, it is more efficient for BBH to have the blood sent for testing in a specialized laboratory than to start up a lab in Hawaiʻi to do the testing.” After approval, the blood is divided into platelets, plasma and red blood cells. “Rare types of blood are usually kept whole,” said Nguyen, and that a rare blood is not determined by type but by “certain
Ka Leo O Hawai‘i rare characteristics.” The most useful blood type is type 0, also referred to as “universal donor” because it can be given to anyone. Those who are type AB are the “universal receivers” and can receive all types of blood. The Blood Bank of Hawaiʻi also makes blood products that are sold and exported to the mainland. To donate anytime, call for an appointment at (808) 848-4721 for the Dillingham or Queen Street locations. Walk-ins are also welcome. For more information visit http://www.bbh.org.

Chegg offers cheaper textbook alternative
A LVIN PARK Associate Features Editor
H OW I T WO R K S After poring over your list of required textbooks for the semester, fi rst decide which ones you’re looking to rent. Then log onto Chegg.com and type in either the textbook’s ISBN, title, or author’s name and search to see if Chegg offers it for rental.
THE PRICE DIFFERENCE W hen rent ing textbooks, a common quest ion is “just exactly how much am I sav ing? ” College st udents are const antly look ing for the best deals and Chegg of fers a v iable and cheaper alter nat ive to the t ra dit ional way of buy ing f rom the bookstore. Rented textbooks off Chegg were not only discovered to be cheaper than buying the new or used versions sold at the bookstore, they were also noticeably cheaper than renting them from the UH bookstore through their new rental program. For example, a textbook re quired for a 300 -level Speech class, “Interpersonal Communication and Human Relationships” (6th Edition) was be -
ing sold at the UH bookstore for $92.20 for a new copy and $70.10 for a used one. R ent i ng t he t ex tbook f rom t he U H rent a l prog r a m wou ld st i l l prove t o be cost ly, s ett i ng you back a subst a nt ia l $ 6 4 . 3 3 t o rent it for a s emes t er — les s t ha n $10 cheap er t ha n buy i ng t he us ed ver sion of t he t ex tbook . Chegg offers the same se mester rental of the textbook for $41.99 (excluding tax and shipping). In fact, renting the textbook from UH for a mere 30 days would still end up costing $44.03 — which was still more expensive than renting the same book from Chegg for an entire semester.
O T H E R F E AT U R E S Although Chegg functions primarily as a textbook rental service, the company does have a buyback program. It offers to buy certain textbooks off students and then rents them out for other students to use. If you fi nd out that you won’t be needing a certain book after you already rented it, Chegg offers a 30-day refund guarantee which will give you a full refund for rented books (minus shipping costs) that you end up not needing. Chegg also offers customer service to students with questions or concerns, and have friendly staff accessible by email and phone just in case students need extra help. With services like Chegg, the fi nancial obstacles of college aren’t exactly minuscule, but it can make the college budget more manageable. “It feels pretty good knowing that I’m saving a signifi cant amount of money (on textbooks),” said Kim. “To me, it makes college that much cheaper.”

Whoever said that college was cheap was probably in school when the cost to attend the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa was only a few hundred dollars. With nationwide college tuition and housing rates skyrocketing, the exorbitant costs of textbooks put a strain on an already tight budget. Enter Chegg. Chegg, a company co-founded by entrepreneurs Osman Rashid and Aayush Phumbhra, was created to alleviate the high costs of college textbooks by servicing as an affordable online textbook rental business. The news went viral as it spread across college campuses, and Chegg saw business suddenly boom as more and more students went online to seek cheaper alternatives to buying textbooks. “A friend told me about Chegg last semester and I decided to check it out,” said UHM journalism major Alden K im. “It was reliable and way cheaper than buying all my books from the bookstore.” As the company prepares for yet another busy academic year, the name Chegg has be come synonymous with textbook rental ser vices. Boasting that it ser vices thousands of students at over 5,0 0 0 universit y campuses, Chegg is becoming more prevalent and acces sible than ever.
A lthough Chegg ack nowl edges that it doesn’t stock ever y single textbook, the com pany ’s librar y is extensive and cont inuously updated w ith the latest edit ions. There are several choices for rental periods. Students are able to rent the book for 60 days, a quarter, or a full semester and the price is dependent on the duration of the rental. It’s worth noting that Chegg does include tax on the student’s bill and that shipping rates to Hawaiʻi and Alaska are a bit more expensive when compared to the continental U.S. The books typically arrive in seven to 10 days in a vibrant orange box emblazoned with the Chegg logo. Once the rent al per iod is over, the st udent must pr int out a prepa id U P S shipping label on Chegg.com, pack the books back in the or iginal de liver y box, and send it back to Chegg v ia a U P S store.

Students speak out on Hannemann dig at UH Mānoa PHOTOS AND INTERVIEWS BY CHRIS MIKESELL , OPINIONS EDITOR
Was it appropriate for Mufi Hannemann to say in a recent mailer that he was a better candidate that his primary opponent, Neil Abercrombie, because Hannemann went to Harvard and Abercrombie went to UH Mānoa? We asked students around campus this week, and this is what they had to say.

Education’s really important but it doesn’t always depend on where you go or how much money you spend because different schools have different interests and those interests refl ect the students.

“I don’t think it’s either appropriate or inappropriate. Realistically, it doesn’t matter what college or what school you go to, it matters how well you take the education, whether you take it seriously or not. Of course, it’s hard to get into some other schools. You can go to Harvard and not do very well in some courses but you can go to UH Mānoa and be an outstanding student and get a better education.”
“It defi nitely wasn’t appropriate to make, but in the end, it all depends on determination and drive, what you really believe and what you actually accomplish, not where you went to school. It kind of belittles us as students here at Mānoa, when people who go to more prestigious schools feel that they are entitled to different things. But it doesn’t take away from the hard work we put into our education.”

What do you think? Do you think Hannemann’s comparison between his schooling at Harvard and Abercrombie’s education at UH Mānoa is a valid point or an inappropriate insult to the state’s flagship university? Vote now in our reader poll at www.kaleo.org. We will report the results of our unscientifi c survey next Friday.
LETTER TO THE EDITOR I, for one, will welcome our new Harvard Governor The article on Monday (“Hannemann fails to make the grade with UHM students,” Aug. 23) went way overboard regarding Mufi’s supposed negative campaigning, which came as a result of the flyer he put out. The flyer was comparing the record and background of the two candidates — which are legitimate things to compare — and was used by Abercrombie to infer ridiculous assumptions. For instance, because Mufi listed that he had attended Harvard, while Abercrombie went to UH, the Abercrombie campaign spun it to assume: Mufi is saying that See Letter to the Editor, next page
“I think it was very inappropriate because UH Mānoa is a great campus, a great school, and it was a personal attack. I feel that Mufi is not supporting Mānoa or the students here.”

LETTER TO THE EDITOR from previous page
Harvard is better than UH; therefore, if you went to UH, Mufi thinks he’s better than you. Mufi didn’t say Harvard was better than UH, he put his education and that of his opponent because those are their credentials, and that’s important when applying for the state’s top job – especially. ASUH president Andrew Itsuno said in the article printed in Ka Leo on Monday, “you are hiring the person, you’re not hiring their background.” Sorry Andrew, but that is a ludicrous statement. Darn right that background, past experiences and accomplishments matter – especially when you are running for the number one job in the State of Hawai‘i. If background didn’t matter, then why would any of us fork over all this tuition money to go to school? We go to school to one day show our degree and earn the credibility to enter a career. My UH diploma is something I will list on every resume and job application that I fill out for the rest of my life. For those of us from O‘ahu, Mufi has been a good mayor to us. There have been a lot of improvements under his time and it offends me that the writer of the story on Monday would paint Mayor Mufi in such a light. Mufi’s website says he grew up in a big family. They didn’t have much money but they made do. Mufi earned a scholarship to ’Iolani and graduated with honors. He was offered scholarships to Harvard, Princton, Stanford, Cornell, Yale and Brown, but in the end he choose Harvard. To me, Mufi is a great success story of Hawai‘i and a really smart guy. I for one do not mind if our next governor went to Harvard, especially when he had to overcome a lot of hurdles to get there.

M ARIANA MONASI Staff Reporter The Rainbow Wahine soccer team (1-1) had a bittersweet start to its season last weekend. After a rough 1-0 loss to Pacific in their opener last Friday, the ’Bows came back to pummel Wagner 4-0 on Sunday night. “We lost the first game, but we outplayed and outshot them (Pacific), we just didn’t get to score goals, but Sunday we came out strong on defense and were able to score well against Wagner,” senior defender Chelsea Deptula (Punahou ’07) said. The ’Bows will play in the OHANA Hotels and Resorts No Ka Oi Tournament this weekend. They play Cal Poly (0-1) on Friday at 7 p.m. and Long Island (1-0) on Sunday at 5 p.m. Both games are played at the Waipi‘o Peninsula Soccer Stadium and parking and admission are free. Head coach Pinsoom Tenzing, who is in his 17th year with the program, believes the team can win the Western Athletic Conference (WAC) regular season and tournament, as well as reach the NCA A playoffs and beyond. Senior team captains Deptula and Mari Punzal (KamehamehaKapalama ’07) both know how those experiences feel. They were freshmen starters on the 2007 WAC Championship team that made the NCA A tourna-
ment. The two would love nothing more than to go out the way they came in – on top. “Our goal is to win WAC,” Punzal said. “We want to win the tournament and make it to NCA As,” Deptula added. But after losing the last season’s top scorers and adding nine new players, Tenzing is “trying to sort out who will be the go-to people on the team right now.” He said the starting lineup and substitutions will be determined in the next few games, well before conference games start. And it’s not like the underclassmen haven’t impressed so far. Sophomores Skye Shimabukuro (Kaua’i HS ’09) and Bree Locuiao (Mililani HS ’09) and junior Saeko Nagano all scored goals against Wagner. “Many of the new players to the team are showing a lot of promise,” Tenzing said. He also said Punzal and Deptula will be important to this year’s success. “The two senior captains are playing up front and midfield, if we can dominate the midfield, the game will be easier for the entire team,” Tenzing said. “Mari will be very instrumental in scoring goals.” Punzal said that being prepared is extremely important in any area of life, especially in com-
petitive sports, she said she “prepares before games by thinking of how (she) wants to feel after the game and being realistic.” For the team, Punzal said they really emphasize on “coming out of the game knowing our performance was the best we could make it.” Deptula said it’s critical “to train hard and keep learning every day, not worrying about the future and staying in the present”. With so many new players, Punzal said the chemistry has significantly improved from last year, which should help the team this year. “It’s easier for all of us to work together since we have not established the go-to people yet, it’s also a lot easier to work with people you want to work hard for and do well with, Punzal said. “I want to go out with a bang.” “We have high expectations of ourselves and a great ambition to win it all,” Tenzing said.

One thing he did bring to UCLA from Hawai‘i, is the same coaching style. “I’ve have the same philosophy that I had when I coached at UH,” Sealy said. “We don’t talk about winning and losing, all about just being as good as we can be.” And after four seasons with the ’Bows and being the main recruiter of this year’s freshman class, Sealy is well aware of what Hawai‘i has. “It’s going to be different,” Danielson said. “We’re pretty excited because he knows exactly how we are since (he was) in the program so long.” San Diego, out of the West Coast Conference, fi nished last season with an 18-7 record. 2010 Hawai‘i Baptist Academy graduate C’era Oliveira is a freshman on the roster. Kansas State enters the tournament after a 12-18 finish last season. The Wildcats, from the Big 12, field a young team with only two seniors and ten freshmen. UCLA, out of the Pac-10, fi nished the 2009 campaign with a 24-9 overall.

’Bows want championship No. 5 Open season this weekend M ARC A R AK AKI Associate Sports Editor
The Rainbow Wahine volleyball team wants that elusive fi fth national championship - and fi rst since 1987. Last season the ’Bows made the NCA A Final Four and had a 32-3 record. Most teams would be happy with that, but not Hawai‘i. “We have high expectations this year. We are coming off of a good year last year making it to the fi nal four,” senior libero Elizabeth Ka’aihu’e said. “(But) I don’t think we were satisfi ed last year, so we’re hungry to get there again and hopefully win it all. “The goal is to take this season as a journey and win a national championship,” Ka’aihue said.
“We got a little taste of it getting into the fi nal four and now we want to bring the whole trophy back home,” All-American outside hitter Kanani Danielson said. The No. 5 Rainbow Wahine’s quest for a national title begins this weekend with the Chevron Rainbow Wahine Invitational. They open the tournament with No. 22 San Diego on Friday at 7 p.m. at the Stan Sheriff Center. They play Kansas State on Saturday at 7 p.m. and conclude with UCLA on Sunday at 5 p.m. Hawai‘i returns four starters including Danielson, the reigning Western Athletic Conference (WAC) Player of the Year, Ka’aihue, sophomore middle blocker Brittany Hewitt, last year’s WAC Freshman of the Year, and senior setter Dani Mafua. Junior right side hitter
Chanteal Satele (a transfer from St. Mary’s College), freshman outside hitter Michelle Waber and freshman middle blocker Emily Hartong are expected to round out the starting lineup.
H OM E C OM I N G F O R S E A LY The UCLA match up will be especially interesting, with former Rainbow Wahine associate head coach Mike Sealy now the head coach of UCLA. He accepted the UCLA head coaching position this past spring following former head coach Andy Banachowski’s retirement. “It’ll be exciting. I miss the islands greatly. I miss the people, miss the community, miss the culture,” Sealy said. “It will be nice to get back.” See Volleyball preview, page 11
