Spring Break

An ideal location TREVOR ZAKOV Staff Writer

Spring Break is, by far, the best respite incorporated into the academic calendar.

We are lucky to study and reside in a place that most in the world view as the ideal Spring Break getaway spot. As a result, it proves to be quite challenging to suggest alternative settings for a week of relaxation.

The stereotypes associated with Spring Break continue to manifest year after year. Presumably, the most renowned stories are those that incorporate the words “Las Vegas.â€? Needless to say, the juxtaposition of most universities’ Spring Break schedules alongside the NCA A’s March Madness Tournament only adds fuel to the ďŹ re for this sophomoric annual tradition.

Nonetheless, there are downsides to a Spring Break in Vegas: First, both traveling to Las Vegas and entertaining yourself there

are problematic on a college budget. Second, if you are not yet 21, the whole Vegas experience turns into one big “no can do.�

Another Spring Break alternative could be going skiing or snowboarding “out West.â€? On paper, this idea sounds fun, diverse and downright exotic – but the reality is something different. Those who want this must actually y at least 3,000 miles east to arrive in Salt Lake City or Denver. The expenses pile up upon arrival, between transportation costs, lodging, food and lift tickets at resorts. The ďŹ nal deal breaker is the rental or purchase of equipment and winter clothing that, upon completion of this vacation, have no use. And let’s not forget that after having lived in Hawai‘i so long, who would want to endure a week’s worth of wintry conditions? A trip like this is simply not worth all the effort involved.

One other suggestion would be to y to Bora Bora, American Samoa,

DFDL ERZOV ‡ VPRRWKLHV ‡ VDQGZLFKHV ‡ ZUDSV ‡ VRXSV ‡ VDODGV

Red Ginger

Fiji, or some other PaciďŹ c paradise.

But what are we doing in Hawai‘i, if not exploring the island chain? Thus, the Spring Break predicament turns out to have quite a simple solution: it was right in front of our eyes and under our feet the whole time.

Staying in Hawai‘i, either on O‘ahu or traveling to neighbor islands, is the best way to make use of the time allotted to us during the holiday. Spring Break is the perfect time to make plans with friends to go to the North Shore and camp during the week, or take advantage of seasonal surďŹ ng conditions. There is no better time to wean yourself off the training-wheel waves of WaikÄŤkÄŤ and onto bigger, better locales.

Spring Break is a unique time to reconnect and refresh. Traveling away from the islands might initially sound like the better adventure. But friendships and budget-friendly options are reason enough to make plans right here.

NIK SEU/KA LEO O HAWAI’I

If you don’t live in Waikčkč and want to get away without traveling, consider a staycation (see page 8 for planning tips).

Spring Break SNORKELING:

S C U BA D I V I N G :

Hanauma Bay is a protected marine life conservation area and underwater park. It is perfect for beginning to advanced snorkelers and scuba divers alike. For the less adventurous, the large sandy beach allows you to sunbathe and have a picnic. There are several hiking trails overlooking the bay that deliver gorgeous views. If you’re driving there, be sure to leave early, as parking fi lls up quickly.

Scuba diving is the best way to explore hidden treasures below the ocean’s surface. Reef Pirates Diving prides itself on having smaller scuba tours for a more personal scuba experience, as well as visiting some of the best underwater sites.

Beginner divers don’t have to be certified. Turtles, fish, white-tip sharks and spotted eagle rays are a few of the marine life you can expect to see.

Spring Break bucket list M AILE THOMAS Staff Writer

Midterms this time of the year mean two things: you’re probably walking around in

a zombie -like fashion due to the lack of sleep, and Spring Break is right around the corner. Here’s a list of some of the many things you can do during break to shake of f the midterm blues.

HIKING: If you’re feeling daring, the Kahekili-Manamana Loop Hike, which also goes by the names Death Ridge, Devil’s Horseshoe and Crouching Lion Death Plunge, may be just the thing for you. There are enough narrow pathways, with steep cliffs on either side of you to keep you entertained and scared out of your wits for a good five hours or so. This isn’t a hike for beginners – make sure to wear gripping shoes and comfortable clothes.

Spring Break A Spring Break for your budget CANDACE C HANG Associate Chief Copy Editor

This spring, junior David McCaskey and his friends Scott Cumming and Zack Acker will be traipsing through Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia and South Korea on a nine-day journey. And they will be doing all this for just $1,900 a person. But not all of us have the planning abilities of these gentlemen – or the impressive budget to enjoy ourselves with. Don’t lose hope; here are three different types of Spring Breaks you can still have.

T H E S P L U RG E ($2,000 and less for traveling March 25 to 30) Bangkok, Thailand – On kayak.com, roundtrip airfare from Honolulu to Bangkok is $998. Four-star hotels are available for as low as $46/night, making the hotel budget $215 for the entire trip. Finally, food

is really cheap in Thailand, especially from the street vendors, so a measly 500 baht ($17) is the recommended daily budget.

Total estimated cost is roughly $1,300.

Manila, Philippines – Roundtrip airfare can be as low as $798. The fi ve-star Manila Grand Opera Hotel is listed at $38/ night, coming out to $186, including fees.

The cost of a meal ranges from $4 to $11, so the total estimated cost is roughly $1,200.

T H E MO D E R AT E S P E N D E R ($400 or less for the week, pick and choose events) Whale watching – The Star of Honolulu offers early morning whale watching for just $27 without breakfast.

Kualoa Ranch – This is the site of “Jurassic Park,” “50 First Dates” and “Godzilla.” With a valid Hawai‘i driver’s license, the movie sites tour is available for only $19.

Horseback riding begins at $59 for an hour.

MICHAEL JUSTA / KA LEO O HAWAI‘I

Electric Beach, Hanauma Bay and Shark’s Cove are all well-known snorkeling spots on O’ahu.

THE PENNY PINCHER ($50 or less for the week) Snorkeling – Just pick a beach. You can boost this idea with a waterproof camera ($8.50) and create an underwater album.

Throw a Spring Break rager WILL CARON Editor in Chief Throwing a party in the dorms requires some additional considerations due to student housing regulations and guidelines. Some of those may limit your options, but it is still possible, and even easy, to throw a successful party in the dorms over break.

PLANNING rules and guidelines Student Housing publishes a rules and guidelines book that is also available online. Familiarizing yourself with these rules is an essential part of planning your party.

It is imperative that you know what you are allowed to do, what is against the rules and what your rights are.

Knowledge is power, especially if you end up needing to speak to the authorities during your party.

COURTESY OF LAUREN TSUGAWA

The UHM Student Conduct Code is available at http://www.studentaffairs. manoa.hawaii.edu/policies/conduct_code/. A PDF can also be downloaded here.

Location Decide where your party will take place. This year, all resident halls are technically “wet” (other than the freshman towers), but all residents and guests at your party must be 21 or older if alcohol is to be present.

and neighbors factor. If your roommates are staying for break, clear the party with them first. Parties run much more smoothly when all the residents of the venue are on the same page about what is supposed to happen. Let your neighbors know that you’ll be throwing a party. As long as it’s during regular hours, you’re allowed to have guests over, but parties usually extend into quiet hours, and being courteous to your neighbors may mean the difference between noise complaints and a funfilled evening.

Roommates and neighbors An often-overlooked aspect of planning a party is the roommates

Invitations Make and send out your invitation list. It’s been my experience that

only half the people you invite will show up, so decide how many people will fit comfortably in your dorm and plan to invite almost double that.

Give them enough time to respond, and if you want to theme your party, make sure your guests have enough time to plan for that as well. Using Facebook is by far the easiest and most effective way to get college students to show up anywhere, and you can also use Facebook to include other information your guests might need to know, like the time and address of the party and whether or not they need to bring anything (booze/food/attire).

SETUP

Food If there’s food that needs to get cooked, do your shopping before the day of the party. Start early on any dishes that can be frozen or refrigerated.

Cancel at any time by replying “Stop” back to any text.

WILL CARON / KA LEO O HAWAI‘I

The International Gateway dorm, though currently under renovation, is a good location for mellow get-togethers with a few friends and a great view.

Clean up your dorm No one wants to hang out in a mess. Make sure there are plenty of seats available and that floor space is clear for mingling. An important part of this is also securing personal belongings.Anything fragile should be placed in a safe place, valuables should be locked up or hidden and electronics should be secured from potential liquid-related accidents.

Spring Break HOSTING Set the mood It’s your party, you set the tone for the night. Be relaxed and amiable. Make sure you talk to everyone and do your best to mingle and check up on people, especially if your party is raging in multiple rooms.

Regulating Monitoring who is coming in and out of your dorm and who is getting sloppy is crucial. The most common causes of both party drama and party busting are unwelcome guests (randoms) or

out-of-control guests (sloppies). Being overly confrontational won’t help when dealing with randoms, especially if he or she just wandered in to check it out or thought the party was open to anyone. Most people like this will leave quietly if you ask them to.

Sloppies can jeopardize your party just as easily as randoms. Start out polite; try to ďŹ nd whomever they came with and have that person take their too-drunk friends home. If a sloppy is your friend, arrange a ride for him or her. Be warned though: some sloppies, when asked to leave, will become belligerent. At this point, it may be time to just throw them out.

FU N PAR T Y I DE A S Tacos and Coronas night

Toga party

Coronas aren’t the cheapest beer, but sometimes Longs puts six packs on sale for $7, and tacos are one of the cheapest and easiest dishes to make for a lot of people. Whatever meat you want can generally be cooked right before the arrival of guests – who can then construct their tacos themselves, leaving less work for you. If you’ve got a lot of guests coming, you can reasonably ask for $3 for two of either. When I threw this party last semester, there were only 12 guests, so I charged $10 per guest for a guarantee of two tacos and two Coronas plus leftovers.

Friends, Romans and party people, there is perhaps no more quintessential form of bacchanalia than the ancient tradition of tying bedsheets around yourself and parading around like a drunken fool.

Though it’s not good wine, consider replacing the traditional beer pong game with a rousing round of Franzia pong. Franzia usually comes in 5-liter boxes and averages a paltry $11 at most stores, making it excellent for dorm parties of the Roman variety.

Frat night Whether you love ’em or hate ’em, you have to admit – frat boys think of some great ways to get wasted. This idea will be difficult without multiple rooms and a kitchen, but is still doable.

My favorite set-up is to have one dorm room set up with a beer pong table and a lot of floor towels. Remember that water can be substituted for beer to make for an easier cleanup. In the other room, set up a card table for people to play king's cup, taxi, up and down the river, pyramid or whatever your favorite fratty card game is.

Jungle juice recipe (serves 20-30) Get a large cooler or plastic tub and fill it with two large packs of ice.

Over the ice, pour a 30 rack of Bud Light (or another light beer without too much flavor – you really just want the beer for its fizziness anyway), two handles (3.5 liters total) of unflavored vodka (don’t go cheaper than Smirnoff, or the vodka might not get covered up as well), and 6 gallons of guava juice, passionorange-guava juice, orange juice or some combination of the three.

The result should be a giant tub of fizzy juice-flavored drink that will seriously get you hammered.

Spring Break staycationing

JAIMIE K IM Managing Editor Spring Break is only a week, which for many people means an off-island trip is out of the question.

Planning a staycation is an affordable way to ensure that you and your significant other take advantage of the quality time that Spring Break allows. Below are some tips to ease the stress of planning a mini-trip to Waikīkī, just a few miles from campus.

D E C I D I N G T H E L E N G T H O F YO U R S TAY Discuss with your partner the length of your stay. For some couples, one night is enough, while others would rather spend a little more for a few days which will definitely allow for quality time and hours that can be spent playing tourist.

BOOKING THE HOTEL Instead of booking your room directly through the hotel, scour the Internet for a good deal that won’t have you cringing when you hand over your credit card at check-in. Use sites like kayak.com to compare costs on a variety of different booking sites. If you’re a resident, be sure to call the hotel for their kama‘āina rates; sometimes these are cheaper than those online.

GETTING THERE It’s a staycation, so taking your car is not a necessity. Don’t find yourself forking over extra money for overnight parking fees; instead, ask a friend or family member to drop you off and pick you up. Remember to gift him or her with some little local gem.

www.hawaiistudentsuites.com JAIMIE KIM/ KA LEO O HAWAI‘I

TheBus is also an affordable (free to students with validated IDs) mode of transportation, with many stops located directly outside of major hotels.

FOOD Staying at a hotel for a couple of nights means you won’t be able to rely on mom for dinner. Since you’ll probably be spending the bulk of your money on ensuring your stomach isn’t growling in the middle of the night, budgeting properly is a must. Many dining options in Waikīkī can be on the pricier side.

Utilize popular apps like Yelp to your advantage so that you know you are getting your money’s worth.

B R I N G YO U R OW N B O OZ E For those of you who are of age and planning on doing some late-night wine tasting, be sure to pack your own bottles. Alcohol at the convenience stores located throughout Waikīkī is generally a few dollars more than what you can find at markets closer to your house. Just don’t forget to pack a bottle opener.

W H AT T O D O, W H AT T O D O In an area like Waikīkī, it is completely possible to fi nd something to do at all hours of the day. Aside from the multitude of stores, there are also free art galleries open to the public located in some of the malls, a zoo and aquarium within walking distance and a shooting range for the more adventurous. For some free late-night entertainment, walk the strip and catch one of the many street performances. Don’t forget the beach is right down the road – and most hotels provide towels for those who use their pools and hot tubs.

The Campus Center construction woes got you down?

Read on to see what all the fuss is about.

Why do we need the Renovation & Expansion?

Campus Center is over 30 years old and has not gone through major renovations to replace equipment and repair the building: • To create access to recreational facilities and programming on upper campus • To meet the demand for more study spaces and areas to gather • To upgrade technology, equipment, energy-efficient lighting systems, etc.

• To meet student demand for a better student union • To create a community where student organizations can network and partner together to meet student needs

What do we get out of this Campus Center Renovation & Expansion Project?

Convenient access to recreational facilities with extended evening and weekend hours: • Showers and lockers • Weight training and cardio equipment • Multi-purpose gyms and studios • Multi-sport gyms for basketball, volleyball, badminton, and indoor soccer

• Brand new areas for more programming (e.g. concerts, performances, intramural sports) • Late-Night café & juice bar • More study areas and lounges • Greater variety of food choices • New and improved facilities (e.g. computer labs, bathrooms, meeting rooms, etc.)

When will the Recreational Center be built and how long will it take?

Construction began at the end of summer 2010 and will last for about 24 months.

How is the Recreational Center being financed?

The financing of the Rec Center is coming from a combination of Capital Improvement Monies from the state and revenue bonds financed through student activity fees.

Will I have to pay to use the Recreational Center?

If you are a University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa fee-paying student, your membership is inclusive of the Campus Center operations fee. Membership for others will be available.

Why build the Recreational Center when the economy is bad?

What will happen to the historic buildings at the Engineering Quad?

We are able to build the Rec Center because the funding source is separate from the university’s operating budget.

Th is project will actually help the economy by providing jobs. In addition, once the building is constructed, we anticipate more student employee positions.

Two of the Engineering Quad buildings will be preserved; the Ka Leo and Duplicating Services buildings. These buildings will be part of the Recreational Center and function as multipurpose rooms.

Will the Rec Center be a studentdriven center?

Like the Campus Center Board, a student organization that governs the Campus Center, the Recreational Center will also be governed by students.

How will the building of the Recreational Center affect the landscape?

As much of the existing, including historical, landscape as possible will be preserved. Trees and plants that can be preserved will remain and those that can be relocated will be relocated either on site or somewhere on campus. Unfortunately, the Ficus benjamina tree or Weeping Fig was in the center of the Recreational Center footprint and was too large to relocate. The Ficus benjamina has been propagated. The monkey pod tree at the Campus Center will be preserved.

Will the Recreational Center be a “green” building?

Sustainability is one of the priorities for this project. Such efforts that will be included in the building of the Rec Center are: • Use of storm water for irrigation • Use of natural ventilation • Maximizing natural lights • Use of four modes of air circulation: from natural air to air conditioning • Rooftops being prepared for green roofs • Use of energy-efficient light fi xtures and equipments • Use of light sensors and sprinklers with rain sensors • Upgrading and centralizing the HVac system • Use of tinted glass to prevent overheating

Spring Break

Don’t be caught

unpermitted H ARLEY DIVEN Staff Writer

Techno-junkies burnt out on buzzing, beeping gadgets can wake up and smell the fresh Hawaiian air by camping at one of the 53 state parks that make up the Hawai‘i State Park system. Many people utilize the recreational camping areas to take a break from the stress of work or school and spend time with family or friends.

Keep in mind that certain reservation dates tend to fi ll quickly.

It’s wise to make reservations as soon as you know what date you’re planning on heading out into the

great outdoors. One of the beaches that tends to fi ll up quickly is Hāpuna Beach, frequently voted as one of the best beaches in America. If you are lucky enough to reserve a spot, the recreation area has A-frame shelters available for $30 per night for residents or $50 per night for nonresidents.

The 25,000 acres that make up the Hawai‘i State Park system have all that Hawai‘i can offer: scenic trails for hiking and turquoise ocean waters for swimming, wading and fishing. In addition to park descriptions and photographs, park rules and safety tips can be found on the website (www.hawaiistateparks.org/camp-

ing). The pages are short and only take a couple of minutes to review.

The safety tips are especially useful for those unfamiliar with Hawai‘i’s surf or terrain.

Prior to April 2010, the only way to obtain camping permits was inperson, calling on the telephone, or through a mail-in process. But the accessibility of the new e-reservation system really begs the question, “Well, why not?” You might just find that the technology-free environment alleviates the pressures of everyday life.

Spring Break Not all wanderers are lost: couch surfing your way around the world

“Creating a better world, one couch at a time” – that’s the motto of Casey Fenton’s brainchild CouchSurfi ng.org, a hospitality exchange and social networking site that allows individuals from around the world to connect with one another to share ideas, homes and adventures.

It began in 1999 when Fenton amassed 1,500 email addresses from the University of Iceland’s public student directory and sent messages to the Icelandic strangers asking if he could stay with them; within 24 hours Fenton had 100 invitations. “I knew it was how I wanted to travel … but I didn’t know if other people would. I thought, I’ll take a chance and see if there are other people like me. And, wow, do they exist.” Since then, CouchSurfing.org has grown to include nearly 4 million members in more than 200 countries and territories throughout the world.

ANTON GLAMB / KA LEO O HAWAI‘I

SHERLEY WETHERHOLD Special Issues Editor

In Yelp-esque style, couch surfers have reference sections on their profi les where fellow couch surfers can vouch for or against them. Unlike most Facebookers and Yelpers, couch surfers halfway around the world that have never met you expect

to be contacted and hopefully meet in person. CouchSurfi ng.org also gives its members the option of setting a couch status — whether or not they can host you overnight, when they can host, for how long, and what their couches are like (sometimes a couch

isn’t a couch at all, but a blow-up mattress in the hall, a hammock in a treehouse or the keys to a boathouse on the French Riviera).

Here are a few t ips on how to get st ar ted and some things to keep in mind while couch sur f ing:

• Make an account.

CouchSurfi ng.org will walk you through the process and suggest different ways to fi ll out various parts of your profi le.

• Couch request with utmost care.

Read profi les thoroughly before you request a potential host. It’s helpful to write a personal message and identify things you share in common and things you would like to learn or could teach your host.

SHERLEY WETHERHOLD Special Issues Editor Think about the last time you felt like you wasted a long weekend or a break. Of course, for many, part of the college experience is wasting time in the company of good friends.

But if it is at all possible for a college student to be partied out or just want to try something new, there are plenty of ways to spend an enriching break giving back to the community.

Honolulu Habitat for Humanity has various building sites throughout O‘ahu, and its volunteers help “to directly bring the dream of a decent, affordable home to a family [in] need.” The cost of living in Hawai‘i is usually at least 30 percent higher than most places in the continental U.S., and figures suggest that it is on the rise. According to a survey conducted by the National Allegiance to End Homelessness in 2009, Hawai‘i’s overall homeless population per 10,000 people is the second highest in the U.S. One of the biggest problems residents of Hawai‘i face is the economic disparity between how much a family makes and how

much has to go toward h off that h h housing. In 2010, with a median monthly rent of $1,291 (as compared to the national average of $855), Hawai‘i was the nation’s most expensive state to lease a domicile in. The percentage of mortgaged homeowners in Hawai‘i that are expected to spend over 30 percent of their household incomes on owner costs is the second highest in the nation. This, combined with the higher costs of food and gas, means that there are many families on O‘ahu struggling to keep up.

Founded in 1976, Habitat for Humanity has helped build over 500,000 homes for 2.5 million people worldwide. If you would like to do some traveling, you can fi nd a complete list of sites and contacts around the world at www. habitat.org. Habitat for Humanity has various programs tailored to the interests and skills of its volunteers. Log on to www.honoluluhabitat.org or call 808-380-8616 to register yourself as a volunteer.

No prior experience is necessary, and your week’s worth of contributions could mean providing a family with the house it needs.

Spring Break

Have a studious Spring Break K ARLEANNE M AT THEWS Chief Copy Editor

The fantasy of Spring Break is a full nine days of lying in the sun and partying all night. But in realit y, many of us have major papers and projects that we’ll need to work on over the holiday. If this is your fate, here are five tips to make your studying as painless as possible:

1. M A K E A S C H E D U L E (A N D S T I C K T O I T )

List the tasks you need to get accomplished and break them down into one -hour chunks.

Then take the time to physica lly place these study blocks

on your calendar, whether it ’s paper, dr y-erase or digital.

Throughout the week, cross off tasks as you finish them, allowing you to track your progress and hold yourself accountable.

On the f lipside, make sure you schedule time to set your work aside and enjoy the vacation with your friends. nds.

2 . STAY OFF FAC E B O O K W H I L E YO U S T U DY Surfi ng Faceacebook durr i ng your study tudy time does more than waste precious moments that could be spent outside: Ever y time your friends post a beach photo or check in at a bar, you’ll be reminded that (seemingly) ever yone else is

having fun while you’re stuck at home. Instead of moping, focus on your work so you can go out and join them.

3. TA K E A DVA N TAG E O F U N E X P E C T E D D OW N T I M E While the bulk of your heavy research and paper pap writing will have to be d do ne in longer time blocks, done p pr o problem-based homework, m memorization and readi ing can often be done a f few minutes at a time. So w when your friend texts you that she’ll be 15 miny utes late picking you up, u use that time to read a chapter chapt or f lip through vocab notecards.

4. MAKE A S T U DY PAC T Agree with a friend to hold each other accountable to your studying calendars. Cre ate a reward system for yourselves, such as giving each other a $25 gift or treating yourselves to a fancy meal out if you both stick to your schedules. If you live with others who also need to do homework, consider hours” and setting house “quiet qu studying together. togethe

will leave w you feely ing like you didn’t y get a break at all when you stumy ble into class come Monday.

Instead, l M d leave the final weekend of Spring Break entirely study-free when you’re scheduling. You’ll show up to school on Monday relaxed, well-rested and full of good memories – and knowing you truly earned the holiday.

5. G I V E YO U R S E L F Y T I M E O F F AT THE END It ’s temptiing to leave all your homework y for the th final weekend of the break. But this

Consent is not the absence of a no, but the presence of a yes.

Ala Mo Moana oana Sho Shopping opping Center 1450 145 50 Ala Mo Moana oana Blvd.

In light of recent attacks, such as those that took place on Feb. 24 and March 10, it is important to address the topic of sexual consent. Because alcohol has been involved in both of the recent incidents, it is essential to include alcohol in this discussion. In some cases, such as those above, it is clear that the incidents were nonconsensual. But at times it can be more difficult to determine what constitutes consent.

The University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa provides no easily accessible information defining consent. It does provide information on sexual harassment and sexual assault, but it has no an-

swer as to what consent is, how to obtain it or why it is important, as other universities do.

According to Washington State University’s website, “Consent can only be given when both parties have equal power in de termining the level of sexual intimacy that will/will not occur in a sexual relationship. …

Consent cannot truly be given if a person is incapacitated, asleep or unconscious.”

Similarly, Student Health Ser vices at Illinois State University informs students, “If someone is intoxicated they cannot legally consent to sex. Having sex with someone who is intoxicated is rape.”

But how many of us have had sex drunk? How do people begin to responsibly obtain sexual consent when they, the other person or both parties are drunk?

One approach is to tell individuals that they are responsible for their own safety. But simply telling women “don’t drink and don’t go out after dark if you are a female,” isn’t realistic or fair.

Brett Sokolow, an attorney featured in the documentar y “ The Line” (which addresses consent and the blurr y line that exists when alcohol is involved) discusses the way that alcohol use can be twisted to blame the victims of sexual assaults.

“If you have done anything that places you in a position of vulnerability, that makes you something less than a ‘perfect victim,’ you’re doomed … you’re not going to have a successful prosecution. If you drank, if you f lirted, if you had sex with someone before – I mean you literally have to have the profile of a perfect victim.”

Spring Break A greater focus on education and communication is what is in order. Women need to know and be aware of potential risks involved in drinking and being out alone. I wish the world were safe enough that this weren’t the case, but it isn’t. We need to continue to inform young women of the necessary precautions. But also, men need to be educated about rape and sexual assault.

Ultimately, only those commiting the crimes can stop sexual assault.

Both sexes, listen to potential sexual partners. W hen it comes to consent, always ask when you’re unsure. Be verbal; say things such as “are you sure you want to do this?” or “I want you to feel comfortable.” W hatever he or she answers, always respect the other person’s decision. Attempting to persuade or coerce someone – especially if he or she is inebriated – is not only deceitful, but illegal.

Finally, UH must establish a definition and criteria for consent that is easily accessible to students.

We all want to have fun at school, and it ’s unrealistic to think that alcohol will never play a part in consensual sexual encounters. But we need to educate ourselves about consent and communicate with one another to ensure that sexual encounters are mutually understood and desired.

Immediately after a sexual assault: DO:

DONʼ T:

- Go somewhere safe, such as a close friend or family member’s house.

- Tell someone you trust what has hap pened. If you want, you can also speak to someone at a crisis center or hotline.

- Seek medical attention even if there are no visible injuries. You will need to be examined for any injuries, possible sexually transmitted infections or pregnancy.

- Call 911 if you wish to fi le a police report.

- Wash, bathe or douche, in order to preserve evidence. Don’t change or wash your clothes either.

- Change anything at the scene of the assault.

- Blame yourself. Your attacker is responsible for the assualt, not you.

- Be afraid to ask for help. Many organizations provide free, confidential services to victims.

TAYLOR MORRIS Staff Writer

Most students envision Spring Break as a week full of relaxing, partying, and beachgoing with no other commitments in the way. For many of us this fantasy will come true, but for athletes it is a very different story. Although academia is put on pause for one week, collegiate athletes retain their rigorous schedules. Athletesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; â&#x20AC;&#x153;week offâ&#x20AC;? will consist of practicing, traveling and competing.

The idea of spending the

week without a care in the world is extremely unrealistic when you have to practice daily, spend six hours in mandatory study halls, play four games in a row and travel to the mainland to compete.

Wahine Softball catcher Kayla Wartner commented, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I love softball, but sometimes it is nice to get away and just have time to myself. Either or â&#x20AC;&#x201C; I wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mind either [having the week off or not].â&#x20AC;?

Music is an expression of the human experience. So for Spring Break, whether you’re the type of person who will spend it studying, at the beach, working out or at a party, here are the beginnings of playlists for whichever scene you might find yourself in.

AT T H E B E AC H :

S E A S O N O F L OV E :

“The Lazy Song” by Bruno Mars “Kokomo” by The Beach Boys “Dome epais” by Delibes, from “Lakme” “Zambezi on mbira” by Tinashe “Cool Down” by Kolohe Kai Finally, after a grueling first half of the semester, we have time to go back to the beach. Kolohe Kai’s song captures the sentiment: “School is pau, let’s go now and hele out the door.” This band knows what’s up. Have fun at the beach as the relaxed Jawaiian beats accentuate the pounding surf. And while you’re at it, you might as well jump in the water and “cool down” – because a week from now, and we’ll all have to be back in school again.

“The Man That Can’t Be Moved” by The Script “Drunk Off Your Love” by Shwayze and d Cisco “Glorybox” by Portishead “Falling” by Iration “Up” by Jason Mraz Got a little Spring Break romance going ing on? In thiss cute love song, Mraz brings back childhood images of joy and ties them in with the refreshing feelings of new love as his lyrics set an image of Willy Wonka’s elevator being buoyed “Up” by love. So, set the volume on low, take your loved one by the hand, and go for a bike ride or something. Get back to that old school sort of romance that’s become vintage these days by taking things slow and giving each other time.

PA R T Y I N G : “Technologic” by Daft Punk “Egyptic” by Beats Antique “She Doesn’t Mind” by Sean Paull “No. 5” by Hollywood Undead “Beer” by Reel Big Fish As my comrade put it, “Beer” epitomizes “The first beer of the day … the first song of the party.” Although not every party has to feature alcohol, beer remains the symbol of relaxation and casual get-togethers with friends. Singing about relationship troubles, the song is all about forgetting those things and just having a good time at a party. With midterms behind us, what better way to express the deep need to just relax with friends, some music and maybe a cold drink or two?

“If I Could Do It Again” by Corey Smith “Photograph” by Nickelback “All Star” by Smash Mouth “Fly” by Sugar Ray “We Are Young” by Fun Made famous by a car commercial, Fun’s song is Spring 2012’s anthem for college kids. The catchy carpe diem tune has bittersweet lyrics, with reminders of our youth accompanied by the image of these fl aming years of our lives burning out. As a graduating senior, hell, as any young adult facing the world today, these words ring true. So this Spring Break, as you drive down Kamehameha Highway past the North Shore’s beaches, take the chance to do something spectacular. “Set the world on fi re” because tonight, “we can burn brighter than the sun.”

Spring Break Switchfoot starts off Spring Break $1 tacos w/ UH ID Cannot be combined with any other coupon/offer

WARNING: TACOS ARE ADDICTING!!!

COURTESY OF BAMP PROJECT

Switchfoot consists of (L-R) bass guitarist Tim Foreman, guitarist Drew Shirley, keyboardist Jerome Fontamillas, percussionist Chad Butler and lead vocalist and guitarist Jon Foreman (center front).

M ARIA K ANAI Features Editor

Fifteen years ago, three young surfers from San Diego formed a rock band called Chin Up that quickly became popular in the Christian rock market. Two brothers, Jon and Tim Foreman, and their friend Chad Butler changed the band name to Switchfoot – and by its third album, “Learning to Breathe,” expanded its audience to the mainstream scene. In 2000, keyboardist and guitarist Jerome Fontamillas joined the band to help shape Switchfoot into the alternative rock band it is today.

“I think the songs that we write are not just Christian,” said Fontamillas during a phone interview. “I feel like our songs are for everyone. They’re songs about life, and faith is a big part of it.” The band’s most successful song, “Dare You To Move,” reached number 17 on the Billboard music charts and received a gold record award in 2005.

Switchfoot’s newest album, “Vice Verses,” is its second album since it broke away from the Columbia record label to make music as an independent band. “It’s influenced our sound in a way that we’re freer to create and expand our creativity,” said Fontamillas. Filled with thought-provoking lyrics about media corruption and the purpose of life and humanity, the album has harsh guitars, psychedelic ambience and even some unexpected semi-rapping by Foreman. “It’s awesome,” Fontamillas laughed.

The album will be followed on May 1 with a remix album “Vice Re Verses,” featuring bands like Mute Math, Owl City and Darren King.

“We have a few friends who said, ‘Hey, we like that

song and we want to remix it,’” said Fontamillas. “It’s more electronic, more what you’ll see at a dance club.”

With eight albums since 1996, what keeps the band going? In response, Fontamillas spoke about last year’s Grammys, when Switchfoot received the award for Best Rock Gospel Album. “We were at the studio recording at the time for the album ‘Vice Verses,’ and we took a day off to go into LA,” he said. “It’s awesome that we got a Grammy, but at the end of the night, we were like, ‘I cannot wait to go back into the studio and record music.’”

For Fontamillas, this story defi nes why Switchfoot works cohesively as a band. “We have a common bond that we love to perform and create music.

We’ve been together for so long and we help each other.” Fontamillas was in Hawai‘i last year, and he hopes to go surfi ng again – a sport that he said helps bring the band members together.

Aside from catching waves, Fontamillas wants to bring his family and meet his friends on the island. He said, “We hope to bring a lot of energy and a ‘San Diego’ way of a rock concert.”
