ASUH serves students by utilizing ASUH student fee money to fund diversified student programs and on-campus events. LYNN NAK AGAWA News Editor The Associated Students of the University of Hawai’i (ASUH), under the direction of president Andrew Itsuno, has increased scholarships to students and hopes to implement other costsaving measures, extend the bus pass program, and reach out to programs within the university.
AT H L E T I C S F E E
Itsuno, vice president Anna Koethe, secretary Richard Mizusawa and treasurer Joshua Beets began their terms in May. Since then, ASUH has largely opposed the $50 per-semester athletics fee, which was approved this summer by the Board of Regents (BOR) and will be implemented this spring. Consequently, ASUH will also
continue to meet with the administration and athletics department in the spring to “ensure students receive fair benefits for paying the athletics fee,” said Itsuno by e-mail. The athletics department is currently working with a student committee comprised of representatives from ASUH, the Graduate Student Organization, the Student Activity Program and Fee Board and Campus Center Board
to collaborate on the benefits of the fee.
INCREASED SCHOLARSHIPS
ASUH has increased scholarships to students for the Fall 2010 and Spring 2011 semesters by 60 percent. ASUH will provide students with $48,000 in scholarships this academic year, up from See ASUH, next page
