ATHLETICS

ATHLETICS The University of Hawai‘i at M¯anoa fields the only Division I Athletics program in the State of Hawai‘i. Men’s sports includes football, baseball, basketball, golf, swimming and diving, tennis, and volleyball. The women’s sports are basketball, cross country, golf, sailing, sand volleyball, softball, soccer, swimming and diving, tennis, track and field, volleyball and water polo. Coed teams are sailing and cheerleading. Before 1923, UH teams were nicknamed the “Deans.” Then in the final game of the 1923 season, UH head coach Otto Klum’s squad upset Oregon State, 7-0, at Mo‘ili‘ili Field. During the game, a rainbow appeared over the field. Reporters started calling UH teams the “Rainbows,” and the tradition began that Hawai‘i would not lose a game if a rainbow appeared. Currently, most of UHM’s men’s teams use the nickname Rainbow Warriors. The Warrior holds an honored place in Hawaiian history, for it was the warrior Kamehameha the Great who united the Hawaiian Islands under one rule. To Hawaiians, the warrior displays great strength, skill and a fighting spirit. UH’s women’s teams are referred to as the Rainbow Wahine. The Hawaiian word Wahine is translated in English as woman. The women’s teams won five national team championships –women’s volleyball (1979, ’82, ’83, ’87) and sailing (2001) while seven athletes have captured national individual championships. hawaiiathletics.com

GETTING AROUND

GETTING AROUND With nearly 320 acres to traverse, getting from point A to point B could be daunting, but there are many ways to get around campus from using the shuttle or hopping on your bike. We also have a great public bus system if you are inclined to explore the island of O‘ahu. Here are a few options for getting around campus with or without a car: CAMPUS SHUTTLE For getting around campus and the vicinity, Commuter Services provides the Rainbow Shuttle bus service, free to the entire UH M¯anoa community. The Shuttle operates weekdays during the Fall and Spring semesters. For routes and schedules, go to hawaii.edu/parking or just look for the white and green shuttle stop signs around campus. MOVE WITH ALOHA UH M¯anoa promotes “living aloha” by encouraging the practice of being considerate of each other and sharing our valuable resources. UH M¯anoa acknowledges the advantages associated with the use of non-motorized vehicles (bicycles, skateboards, etc.) as a means of convenient and energy efficient transportation on campus. Look for Share Zones, Sharrow Lanes, and Bike Routes around campus. THEBUS As a benefit of paying dues, UH M¯anoa students (except medical, law and Outreach College students) receive stickers for their IDs known as UPASS, which is good for unlimited rides on the O‘ahu-wide city bus system known as TheBus. There is no need to have a car when students can take TheBus to Waik¯ik¯i (26 minutes away), Ala Moana Shopping Center (20 minutes away) and the North Shore (approx. 2 hours away). For questions on routes, call TheBus customer service at (808) 848-5555 daily from 5:30 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. HST. COMMUTER SERVICES As with many university campuses, the demand for parking spaces at UH M¯anoa is greater than the supply. Bike parking is always free in the more than 50 campus bike racks. Moped/ motorcycle, carpool, day and evening permits for students and employees are all available for purchase online at hawaii.edu/ parking.

ALUMNI ASSOCIATION

UH ALUMNI ASSOCIATION

Alumni from all 10 campuses of the University of Hawai‘i System are unified as members of the University of Hawai‘i Alumni Association (UHAA). Our alumni ‘ohana includes more than 260,000 UH graduates living in all 50 states and in more than 100 countries. As the official alumni organization of the UH System, UHAA communicates with alumni and supports its worldwide network of chapters and volunteers. It is a membership based, 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that offers three membership levels:

The UH Alumni Association was informally constituted in 1922, 10 years after the first UH graduating class of 1912. It was formalized into a system-wide umbrella organization for all UH-recognized alumni groups in 1988. The University of Hawai‘i Foundation established the Office of Alumni Relations with the approval of the Board of Regents in December 2002. The Office of Alumni Relations works closely with UHAA to serve the community of UH alumni and students in Hawai‘i and worldwide.

¯ • L OKAHI – Unified: Free basic level. Graduates from any of the 10 UH System campuses are automatically members of the UHAA ‘ohana and are eligible to receive basic benefits.

UHAA supports the UH System and sponsors events that showcase its excellence. The association’s goal is to generate support for the university by encouraging interaction among UH graduates and friends.

• HA‘AHEO – Proud: Paid annual level. This elite membership level is open to alumni and friends, and offers a unique way to give back to your university and receive exclusive member benefits. • ‘ONIPA‘A – Steadfast: Paid lifetime level. The highest level of membership for alumni and friends who wish to make a lifetime commitment to support UH. Governed by a volunteer Board of Directors, UHAA includes a nationwide and international network of affiliated alumni groups. Its Alumni Council is made up of all UHAA chapter presidents, chancellors of each of the 10 campuses and other chapter leaders. Paid member benefits allow alumni great savings and discounts to events, activities and travel.

CAMPUS TRADITIONS

CAMPUS TRADITIONS TEAM NAMES Rainbow Warriors (men) & Rainbow Wahine (women) THEME SONG The famous and iconic Hawai‘i 5-0 theme song is played at all sporting events. THE WARRIOR CHANT The Warrior Haka – a traditional M aori ¯ dance, the Warrior football team performs their version of the haka 20 minutes before every game. HOMECOMING Held every October, Homecoming comprises week-long festivities that include a Homecoming Fair, Wahine (Women’s) volleyball game, the Homecoming football game, class reunions and special performances, exhibits, and lectures across campus. ALOHA BASH Held every April at Andrews Amphitheatre, students celebrate the nearing of semester’s end at the annual Aloha Bash. The event features live performances by some of Hawai‘is favorite bands and artists, enhancing students social life experiences on campus. THE GIFT OF LEI One of the most unique experiences of living in Hawai‘i and being a student at UHM is the cultural tradition of lei giving at graduation and on senior night at all of our athletic events. As a celebratory and congratulatory gesture, the tradition of lei giving goes back centuries and is firmly rooted in Hawaiian culture. A lei is a garland of flowers that is worn around the neck and it is customary on special occasions to “lei” the person or individuals who are being honored. Graduation and senior night is a fun and very colorful experience unlike any other!
