Shidler students feel the heat

DANIEL JACKSON Staff Writer

LYNN NAK AGAWA News Editor

SAT U R DAY, S E P T. 25 A student reported being punched in the eye by another male while attending the “Rockin’ the Roots” concert at Campus Center. The assailant escaped into the crowd.

Last week the Shidler College of Business became a “sauna” as facilities management re placed the water chillers in the school’s AC system. The work, which cut off the chilling of the air, left many students and instructors in the heat for about a week. Facilities scheduled Thursday, Sept. 16 through Wednesday, Sept. 22 to replace the chillers. Many of Shidler’s classrooms are enclosed and have no windows, meaning little or no outside circulation. “It was hot and muggy and many students started bringing fans to class,” said Edwin Chau, accounting major. “Many of the classes were moved outdoors and most professors postponed midterms ’til this week,” he said. However, some students could not escape their midterms in spite of the heat. Naquan Gavin, international business and marketing major, took his midterm in a Shidler classroom during the week of no air-conditioning. “I had to take a midterm in those conditions, it was horrendous,” he said. “I had a towel with me and had to use it the whole time. The heat was absurd,” said Gavin, who believes the heat can affect test outcomes marginally. If there are plans of cutting the AC in the future, Gavin hopes that students

At around 1 a.m., a Hale Noelani resident reported a stranger sitting in her apartment, helping herself to groceries. The resident convinced the intoxicated intruder to leave, only to have her return a few minutes later through a living room window. The uninvited visitor was later issued a one-year trespass warning.

F R I DAY, S E P T. 24 A moped was reported stolen from Waʻahila Faculty Housing. The moped had been secured by the rear wheel, which was unbolted and left chained to the bike rack. T U E S DAY, S E P T. 21 An assistant professor reported receiving disturbing e-mails and notes left on his Sakamaki Hall office door. The author of the notes claimed to be the “biological grand-daughter of Osama Bin Laden” who knew the “secret behind the origin of HIV as well as other secret knowledge.” The assistant professor expressed concern See CampusBeat, page 4

The facilities mangagement’s work cut off the A.C. for Shidler College of Business from Sept. 16 to Sept 22. will be relocated to another classroom with AC or ventilation. Kelly Wiles, human resource management major, had two tests in Shidler last week. “In my ﬁnance class, every single space was ﬁlled and I was sweating. The only thing I wanted to do was get out of the class,” she said.

“Shidler is not made for ventilation. It has no windows. It was just stale air (in the classrooms),” said Wiles. William Chismar, associate dean for academic affairs at the College of Business confirmed that no plans were in place to re locate students because of space

capacity at the university. According to Wiles, one of her instructors warned students about the impending heat and cautioned them to be prepared. The air-conditioning is currently running at the Shidler College of Business and is functioning as usual.

Board of Publications seeks to implement fee increase A LICIA PARTRIDGE Senior Staff Writer Along with many other student organizations, the Board of Publications (BOP) is seeking to increase their student fee from the current $13 per semester to $23 by 2013.

Much like other groups, the BOP is feeling the effects of the budget crunch. The fee has been the same since 1988 and the Board has only recently started considering an increase. The increase would take place over 2.5 years; going up $2 per semester for the next ﬁve semesters. “We ﬁgured that it is like the price of two

lattes over four semesters,” said Ronald Gilliam, BOP Treasurer and graduate student. Gilliam explained that the ﬁgure came from brainstorming sessions with their advisor after they ﬁgured out their needs and goals. See BOP fee increase, page 3

Panel discussion focuses on torture, Abu Ghraib JANE CALLAHAN Associate News Editor Students have a chance to hear f irsthand accounts of what really happened at Abu Ghraib. Colonel Larry Wilkerson, Chief of Staff to former U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell, will accompany Dr. Vincent Iacopino in presenting research concerning torture in detainment centers where suspected terrorists were held. “ I v isited Guant anamo as a medical legal exper t to evaluate a det a inee,” sa id Iacopino. Iacopino began Physicians for Human R ights, a non-prof it group aimed at providing doctors with “ the knowledge and skills … to protect and promote human rights as conditions for health and human dignit y.” Iacopino did not obser ve any of the practices at the camp, as they were classified. However, Physicians for Human R ights conducted a study of former detainees, and also acted as a medical-le-

gal expert in “a number of ” Gauntanamo detainee cases. He was ﬁ rst inspired to begin his work on human rights in the mid-1980s when he spent some of his medical training at a Cambodian refugee camp. “I realized that I was not adequately prepared to address the cases of human suffering that the refugees had experienced in Cambodia … in the war zone in which they were forced to live,” said Iacopino. Wilkerson retired from state service in 1997. Since then, he has continued to speak out against the Bush administration and its national security policies, particularly in regards to what transpired at Guantanamo and Abu Ghraib. He is now a visiting professor at the College of William and Mary in Virginia. His work with Iacopino is independent from his teaching job. “ Torture is a f undamental violation of human rights that can never be justif ied under any circumstance,” said Iaco pino. “Despite this, the U.S. authorized and implemented torture practices that have cost A merican lives and under-

mined our securit y.” In this presentation, they hope to “provide students and the public with evidence on which to base their opinions about U.S. torture so the crimes of our recent past are not repeated,” said Iacopino. In addition to discussing the is sues surrounding torture, Wilkerson and Iacopino will provide f indings and insights, show slides of Abu Ghraib, as well as play music that was used to torture Gautanamo detainees. Iacopino mentioned the degree that A mericans are kept in the dark, stating, “I believe that people are not aware of the extent to which torture was officially authorized and practiced under the Bush administration.” He added that based on opinion polls, 36 percent of the U.S. population continues to believe that torture to suspected terrorists is an acceptable practice. “ T here is convincing evidence that torture has ser ved to undermine national securit y. Moreover, respect for the rule of law requires accountabilit y,”

said Iacopino. Anne Smoke, Program Manager for the Matsunaga Institute for Peace and Conﬂ ict Resolution, said that the research was brought to their attention through a doctor at the Paciﬁ c Survivor Center. “Our sponsor, Dr. Nicole Littenburg … learned about us and asked if we would like to sponsor these two speakers. This topic, presented by such knowledgeable and credible speakers … will broaden our students’ horizon(s) (and) stimulate critical thinking,” said Smoke.

The event is scheduled for Thursday, Sept. 30, 5 to 7 p.m. at the William S. Richardson School of Law, Room CR2. The presentation is sponsored by the Pacific Survivor Center, the William S. Richardson School of Law, and the Spark M. Matsunaga Institute for Peace and Conflict Resolution.

BOP fee increase from front page

“We didn’t want to burden students very much,” Gilliam said. “We decided to slowly add increase, so that the students who are leaving wouldn’t have to pay and not beneﬁt.” After meeting with the chartered student organizations, the board found the main complaint was that the school has too many fees as is, but found they recognize the need for the increase. Ofﬁ cial support from the Student Activity Program Fee Board (SAPFB), Broadcast Communication Authority (BCA) and Graduate Student Organization (GSO) has been shown. The BOP is a charted student organization established to manage and support all publications supported by funds from student fees. The board provides the “University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa

campus community with the best journalistic, literary, publication, and production services possible,” according to their mission statement. The Ka Leo, Ka Lamakua and the Hawai‘i Review are all supported by the BOP. According to the board’s projected budget, if the fee stays the same, by 2013 ,the BOP will have negative net revenue of nearly $50,000. Dramatic cuts have already been made to balance this out. In 2006, the board dealt with cuts before and decided to shut down the school’s printing press, the Beau press. They were forced to dismiss two faculty positions as well as many student positions. Ka Leo has seen many cuts. The board explained that the amount for student stipends was cut from a total of $140,000 to $90,000 annually.

The paper used to be a ﬁve-day per week publication and now is only three. Before, they were able to send many journalism students to mainland conferences and last year, they could only afford to send one student. Also, faculty positions are down from six to three and there is a lack of equipment such as recorders and cameras. Ka Leo is not the only one suffering from cuts. Ka Lamakua, the online arts and literature journal written by students, is lacking people and funds. The journal launched in August 2006 after the idea came from Julia Wieting, a former editor in chief of the Hawai’i Review. Ka Lamakua has only $2,000 annually for stipends, making it hard to recruit efﬁ cient staff to maintain up-to-date technology, said the BOP. Hawai‘i Review has also been

hit. The review was founded in 1973 and is a student-run biannual literary journal featuring national, international, as well as regional literature of Hawai‘i and the Paciﬁ c. The review has had to cut back on quality and amount of issues printed. “When I ﬁ rst joined the BOP, the Hawaii Review had a really thick cover,” Gilliam said. “Those were artworks.” The board believes that charted student organizations create the campus-like atmosphere at UH and that diminishing these programs would lessen the spectrum of involvement and learning opportunities for students. “Without the increase we might have to cut one of our publications,” Gilliam said. They also believe that these publications are vital for develop-

ment of all the students, faculty and staff at UH. Gilliam explained that the publications provide much experience to the students of the journalism department. If the fee passes, the board has broken down the process of accommodating those funds into four phases. Starting with hiring a professional advertising manager and balancing the budget while maintaining current production. Then the BOP would create a graduate assistantship and increase stipends and travel grants. In the last phase, they would hire a professional production manager and invest in web technologies. Next, the BOP will meet with the Chancellor and then present to the Board of Regents at their meeting in November. The proposal is available online at http:// www.hawaii.edu/bop.

‘Going the Distance’ Despite only grossing $8.5 million in its first weekend, “Going the Distance” provides solid entertainment.

KA LEO O HAWAI‘I ANNOUNCES A SPECIAL ADVANCE SCREENING Thursday, September 30 • 7:00 pm Ward 16 Theatres

DIMIC FLICKR

WASABI NA JAM Contributing Writer Now that the semester is in full swing, some of you might fi nd yourself in need of a good romance fi lm to take that cute girl from chemistry lab to. Well, my friends, look no further than “Going the Distance” for all your date-worthy fi lm satisfaction. I’ll admit, I was skeptical when I walked in and the whole row behind me was fi lled with middleaged Korean ladies who were clearly on a girl’s night out. But once the fi lm started, the romance had me tearing up and the jokes kept me in stitches. To the tougher guys; you might also enjoy this fl ick. Garrett (Justin Long) is your average New York youngster with typical problems, like committing to a relationship and enjoying his job at a record company. Erin (Drew Barrymore) is a master’s student from Stanford University who fi nds herself 31 and struggling to work a summer internship for a high-paced paper in New York. The two meet over a game of Centipede in a bar and the romance develops

by the book from there. There is a completely out of place use of weed which had me laughing “WTF” in harmony with many of those in the theater. After a few montages of nice dates and sex, the couple separates when Erin’s internship ﬁnishes. They then engage in a long-distance relationship at the very last moment. Garrett’s roommate, Dan, (Charlie Day, “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia”) and coworker, Box, (Jason Sudeikis, SNL) provide humor at necessary moments to break up the romance and keep the movie fresh. Erin’s sister, Corinne (Christina Applegate, “Anchorman”) and her husband, Phil, (Jim Gafﬁ gan) provide some good laughs and character development when Erin moves back to California and is knee-deep in a long-distance relationship with Garret. As the two travel back and forth between California and New York, jealousy and a number of other ailments start to plague the couple. Some situations prove to be laughable while some yank a few tears. In the end, the experience was pleasurable and at no point was I sitting

in my chair, bored with over-the-top romance or melodrama. Garret’s workplace offers a bit of social commentary provided by Will (Ron Livingston, “Office Space”) when he and Garret ridicule a generic Jonas Brothers band. Despite this, the soundtrack is filled with classics and multiple stellar performances by The Boxer Rebellion. “Going the Distance” only managed to gross $8.5 million in its opening weekend, but to me, it’s the most solid chick fl ick in a long time (Twilight fi lms aside). I was satisfied with nearly every aspect of this fi lm although at times Barrymore looked a little out of place with the younger cast. But, after revisiting the fi lm, Barrymore still commanded her character fl awlessly. I left the theater wishing the movie was more about Dan and Box, as they could have sold the movie as a comedy and done an even better job. This movie is perfect for that date you’ve got penciled in or just for some good laughs and a few tears. So make it a boys/girls night out or ask that crush out; either way, you can’t go wrong with “Going the Distance.”

even more impor t ant than the present at ion is Sat ura Cakes’ commitment to using the best ingredients which is ev i dent in ever y bite. In fact, the company’s Japanese inf luenced ideolog y is ver y similar to that of the Slow Food Movement - they have returned to the good, natural, oldfashioned slow cooking. They use the best pure and wholesome ingredients, ranging from real milk to fresh, locally grown products. There are no trans-fats or cheap modern alternatives found there. And so, from the rich moistness of the red velvet cake to the crunchiness of the caramel crumbles in the caramel crunch cream puff, every bite is an experience. As their slogan says, “Our mission: never another ordinary bite.” At about $4 for most pastries and about $3.50 for espressos, Satura Cakes offers a more specialized and healthy alternative to the stereotypical American coffee shop. The atmosphere of the little Internet café is as sweet and endearing as the homey smell of the goodies ﬂ owing through it. In fact, with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, Satura Cakes makes for a great place to study and an especially great place to take a girl for a deliciously perfect ﬁ rst date.

Women push for equal pay L INDSY OGAWA Opinions Editor

According to the Institute for Women’s Policy Research in 2009, Caucasian women who work full time earn 75 cents for every dollar paid to Caucasian men, AfricanAmerican women earn 62 cents, and Latina women earn 53 cents. The U.S. Senate is currently reviewing the Paycheck Fairness Act, which will make it easier for women to ﬁle class-action suits against employers accused of sex-based pay discrimination. It will also require employers to be able to account for why people of different genders with the same job have different pay. But the Paycheck Fairness Act, a “common-sense bill” according to President Obama, has met opposition from critics who claim sexism is dead, just as the misinformed say that racism is dead because of our elected biracial president. Congress has turned the bill down in previous years, with critics saying that such a bill will cause men and women to turn on each other in the workforce. Some

Carol Bartz, the CEO of Yahoo; Irene Rosenfeld, CEO of Kraft; and Indra Nooyi, CEO of Pepsi Co., had increased pay while many of their fellow male CEOs took pay cuts. No world wars were reported. Critics who claim that women make less pay because they decide

to get pregnant make it seem like motherhood is career-suicide. Yet, even if we were to factor in pregnancy leave and forget the typical social, nurturing confi nes women face in comparison to men, who are brought up to be the breadwinners, a women’s research fi rm, Catalyst, found that childless female MBA graduates from 26 elite business schools made, on average, $4,600 less than their male peers. And for those saying women generally make less because of their chosen major, it has been suggested that the reason some jobs earn more than others is because men and women are drawn to certain job positions based on earlier social values, and the jobs men go after tend to pay better. Teaching, nursing, and childcare positions historically held by women, are paid less than those held by men. However, none can be considered as less valuable than a lawyer or business person. Women do not want to wave their handkerchief as the defenseless maiden-crying victim, but to neglect that legislation can help women’s rights, and to say that sexism is a thing of the past, ignores the sustained inequality that has not yet been fixed.

Rainbow Wahine begin WAC play Looking for a fresh start SEAN M ICHEL Senior Staff Reporter

A team’s record doesn’t always indicate progress and commitment. This has been the case of the Rainbow Wahine soccer team, which is 2-8-1 and has set records the team would want to forget. For example, the ’Bows have been shut out their last four games, setting a school record. The fourth shutout by No. 1 Stanford was the worst loss in school history. Head coach Pinsoom Tenzing said the team was “slaughtered” in their 9-0 loss. “We are kind of bummed about our record, but in all, we are just really happy to be getting to the games that mean the most,” said senior midfielder Mari Punzal. “We didn’t expect to come out with big wins but I don’t think we expected to come out with such huge losses either.” “(Stanford is) on a different level,” Tenzing said. “Truly punishing.” The ’Bows have played a strong schedule and has losses to No. 18 California, No. 1 Stanford, a Washington State team that was ranked in the top 20 earlier, and West Coast Conference front-runner Pepperdine. The ’Bows finished their preseason on a semi high-note, however, when they played Pacific, a team that had beaten them at home earlier in the season. The ’Bows played to a 0-0 tie in Stockton, Calif. “All things considered, (the tie at Pacifi c is) a good result for us,” Tenzing said.

N E X T U P, WAC The Rainbow Wahine open Western Athletic Conference (WAC) play this weekend. Coming into town will be the

Boise State Broncos (3-7-1) on Friday at 7 p.m. and the Idaho Vandals (8-3) on Sunday at 5 p.m. Both games are at the Waipi’o Peninsula Soccer Stadium. Admission and parking is free. “It’s like a new start for us,” Punzal said of conference play. The Vandals have the second best record in the WAC, behind Louisiana Tech’s 10-2 record. LaTech is riding an eight-game win streak. With the WAC season starting, the ’Bows are looking to take the experiences from their losses to ranked teams to push them through the conference matchups. “(We’ve) have seen the hardest opposition,” Tenzing said. “And everybody coming up as compared to Cal or Stanford will be easier to deal with.” The ’Bows must score more goals. Despite a tie in their last game, the Rainbow Wahine have not scored a goal since Sept. 5th in an 8-1 trouncing at No. 18 Cal. “We haven’t found the magic connection between the two strikers,” Tenzing said. Punzal, who has played midfield since a stellar high school career at Kamehameha, was moved to the front line as a striker before the season started. For the Pacifi c game, Punzal was back at midfield and will stay there for the time being. “I feel like my confidence level has gone up since the Pacifi c game being that I’m back in the middle,” Punzal said. “I feel like I’m more productive.” Regardless of her positioning on the field, Punzal has been productive for the ’Bows this season. She is tied for the team lead in goals and leads in almost every other offensive category. “Even though we had a rough preseason, we don’t need to dwell on it,” Punzal said. “This is an opportunity to start fresh.”

hard and staying healthy. After all, her perspective on the game changed after her season-ending injury last year. “It was a rough time, but it made me realize how lucky and blessed I am to even have the opportunity to play and to never take it for granted,” Domingo said. “It made me more passionate about the game. “Injuries are always rough,” Domingo continued. “I feel like if something is not hurting, you are very lucky.” Lum said the team knew they lost a big contributor to the offense last year. “A f ter R achel got hurt the team was quite heartbroken,” Lum said. “She is quick and has great ball control being able to make sharp cuts and blow by an opponent. “She is also vocal and is an intelligent player,” Lum continued. “She is able to make splitdecisions and she has a clear understanding of the game.”

I N S P I R AT I O N A L L E A D E R Although a sophomore in eligibility, this is Domingo’s third year in the program. And much like how her sister influenced her, she has also flourished as a leader and “older sister” both on and off the field. “Rachel has always had leadership qualities but this year is really stepping up. She never gives up and always works hard,” Lum said. “She sets the bar high by exhibiting a high level of competitiveness and fitness since she is always one of the fittest on the team. “She is so encouraging on the field. There’s nothing like positive remarks to make you keep playing hard when you are down a goal or have just made a mistake,” Lum continued. “Another thing we love about her is that she never likes to lose. She has a competitiveness that drives for perfection and success which really helps our team to become better.” But Domingo is also one of the jokesters on the team and knows how to make things more

enjoyable for people around her. “My favorite thing about Rachel is she will always make you laugh,” Lum said. “She is one of the funniest people I know and it’s such an honor to have her as a teammate and as a friend.” However, the inspiration is not just a one-way thing. Domingo also gets motivated by her teammates. “(They) inspire me to play hard. If you don’t make a run on the field, it doesn’t make you look bad, but one of your teammates is going to have to pick up your slack,” Domingo said. “So my motivation is to not have them do more than is needed in their position. “When I see my teammates working hard it really motivates me as well. My sister really motivates me but on the field I really look up to (senior defender) Mari Punzal,” Domingo continued. “She is always working so hard and always has a positive attitude. I look up to her on the field and we push each other a lot. I love it.”

Although her older sister Jessica was a standout for the Rainbow Wahine soccer team, sophomore midfielder Rachel Domingo has also become a big asset on and off the field. “Rachel brings her own skill and charisma to the team,” junior defender Brittani Lum said. “She is one of a kind.” After her season was cut short in 2009 from a partial tear in her knee, Domingo has become a force to be reckoned with in the midfield this year. She has started in 10 of the team’s 11 games and has 3 shots on goal.

SISTER, SISTER Rachel, who intends on majoring in secondary education or history, said she enjoys playing in front of her family, friends and fans. But when it comes to who infl uenced her as a soccer player, her sister Jessica wins the award. “I love my sister; she is honestly my best friend. She is such a hard worker and really smart on and off the field,” Rachel said. “I respect her a lot and she motivates me in ways that other people can’t.” While at UH, Jessica earned all-Western Athletic Conference (WAC) honors three years in a row, was named to the 2007 WAC all-tournament team, and helped lead UH to NIK SEU / KA LEO O HAWAI‘I its first WAC Championship and first NCAA tournament appearance.
