Courtney Teague Associate News Editor Victor Ong News Editor news@kaleo.org @kaleoohawaii When bees attack VICTOR ONG / KA LEO O HAWAI I Since 2008, UH s honeybee research project has aimed to protect and encourage growth of the species. KA LEO O HAWAI I: THE VOICE MONDAY, MAY 02, 2016 03 VICTOR ONG NEWS EDITOR The campus was buzzing with activity Tuesday morning when land- scaping staff discovered what they described as an aggressive bee- hive in a tree near Hemenway Hall. The hive was embedded within a tree near the front entrance of Ba-Le. Scott Nikaido, UH honeybee researcher, said that multiple individuals were stung and the bees were observed flying several hundred feet away from the hive. He believes the bees were defending of their hive. Honeybees act defensively when their home is threatened or severely disturbed, as was the case today, Nikaido said in an email. He believes the hive was accidentally disturbed early in the morning. Sarah Rice, community programs manager of the campus Department of Public Safety (DPS), said that DPS officers roped off the surrounding area and redirected foot traffic away from the tree with the help of campus center staff. MINIMIZING THE PROBLEM According to groundskeepers on-site, the hive was discovered to be aggressive around 7:30 a.m. on Tuesday. Dan Meisenzahl, UH spokesman, said the hive had been noticed before, and that a work order had been placed early April to have the hive removed. The campus then called Absolute Termite & Pest Control to remove the hive. Pest control workers opted to exterminate the bees instead of blocking bees from entering the hive, installing an artificial hive nearby then hauling it off campus. The latter option would ve taken three weeks, which was impractical for campus safety. Ethel Villalobos, director of UH s honeybee research project, said NEWS in an email that it was important to consider if the hive can be easily removed by beekeepers in a way that doesn t endanger them or other nearby people and animals. Villalobos said that even if the bees were not acting aggressively, removing the hive safely and expediently would have required breaking open the tree and potentially killing it. She also said the appropriate course of action to deal with feral bee colonies depends on the situation, Honeybees act defensively when their home is threatened... SCOTT NIKAIDO UH HONEYBEE RESEARCHER including whether or not the bees were an established colony with a hive, or a swarm of bees without one. An established colony, like the one that occurred today, will be much more difficult [than a bee swarm]. Since an established colony has stored food and young honey bees, the bees will act much more defensive during the removal process, Nikaido said. HONEYBEE INCREASE According to Meisenzahl, honeybees have seen a resurgence around campus over the past 10 months. One was reported late last year and two were reported this month alone, including the hive that caused the incident Tuesday. Landscaping staff usually deal with wasps and carpenter bees, Meisenzahl said. To accommodate the recent spike in hives, they are currently drafting new policies to deal with beehives. Andrews Amphitheater has increased accessibility New ramp will allow those with wheelchairs to access stage NOELLE FUJII EDITOR-IN-CHIEF Wheelchair users can now access the Andrews Amphitheater s stage thanks to efforts by the College of Education (COE) and the campus facilities office. I m thrilled that this has happened, said COE Convocation Coordinator Aaron Levine in a phone interview. My understanding is there s never been access to the stage at Andrews, and it s been on campus for a long, long time, so this is, an important milestone in Mānoa s move to provide accessible venues for our students and families and faculty. A new ramp in the Diamond Headmauka corner of the amphitheater connects the back area to the stage an area COE instructor and wheelchair user Brian Kajiyama hadn t been able to access before. Previously, the only areas designated for wheelchair users were in the alcoves along the back of the raised seating area, leaving no way for a participant to access the stage or grass area. Because of this, Kajiyama couldn t always see his students after the COE s yearly convocation event. I had to ask a peer to tell them to come up to see me, or there were times I was there but couldn t tell them, he said. So I would get messages saying I was hoping to see you at convocation, and I would explain: I was there but I couldn t come see you. According to Levine, the Andrews Amphitheater was chosen for the college s event five or six years ago because it could accommodate more than 1,000 people. Each year, he received inquiries from people asking how they could access the event, To provide all people with an opportunity to have access to [the Andrews Ampitheater] venue is really important. DAN MEISENZAHL UH SPOKESMAN including some from Kajiyama. The ramp is a temporary fix and while there is no set date for it to be taken down, UH spokesman Dan Meisenzahl said it will likely happen over summer. In the meantime, facilities is looking at permanent solutions, though Meisenzahl is unsure of where it is on the priority list, especially since there are other ADA-compliant venues available, like Kennedy Theatre and Orvis Auditorium. For now, this fix comes just in time for the college s upcoming convocation on May 13. Andrews is just a gorgeous venue very unique on the Mānoa campus. It also has historic significance, if you ve ever been there at sunset, it s just breathtaking, he said. So to provide all people with an opportunity to have access to that venue is really important.

04 MONDAY, MAY 02, 2016 KA LEO O HAWAI I: THE VOICE OPINIONS The ugly side of beauty Animals do not need to be harmed to improve products opinions@kaleo.org @kaleoopinions Kimberlee Speakman Opinions Editor scientists will be able to test products on cell-based models. These replicas will react the same way our bodies would when in contact of any potentially dangerous substance. This innovative technique could be replace animal testing. There are other cruelty-free cosmetics available, such as Kat Von D, Anastasia Beverly Hills and Too Faced. If you re looking for quality cosmetics, purchase those that support the humane animal treatment. Brooke Alcuran Associate Opinions Editor that cosmetic manufacturers to employ whatever testing is appropriate and effective for substantiating the safety of their products. The Animal Welfare Act as well as the Office of Laboratory Animal Welfare commends the use of animals in research and experimentation. Although animal testing is legal, the practice itself is not required amongst cosmetics, in particular. For the most part, it is up to the company itself to choose to partake The problem is that [animal testing] hasn t worked, and it s time we stopped dancing around the problem. ELIAS ZERHOUNI FORMER DIRECTOR OF NIH RESEARCH TREATMENT OF ANIMALS CARLY YASHIKI STAFF WRITER BROOKE ALCURAN ASSOCIATE OPINIONS EDITOR On Aprril 19, Uber driver Luke Wadahara was charged with sexual assault. The victim, a teenage girl, ordered an Uber for her and her friends from Ala Moana Shopping Center. The driver dropped off her friends at their homes in Mililani first before heading back to Makīkī, where the victim lived. Instead of taking straight to her home, he allegedly made numerous wrong turns. He then pulled over and attacked the girl. The victim managed to fight him off and run home. To protect consumers, ride-sharing services or transportation network companies (TNCs) such as Uber and Lyft, should be regulated similar to taxi cabs with stricter background checks on drivers. SAFETY IS QUESTIONABLE Recent headlines on the the data GREENZOWIE / FLICKR A 2013 Humane Society legislative poll in found that 73 percent of Americans are in favor of some kind of federal legislation to end cosmetic animal testing. on Uber sex assaults complaints have created confusion among alternative transportation consumers. A former Uber customer service representative shared screenshots of the company s Zendesk customer support platform, showing that a search query for sex assault returned 6,160 customer support tickets. As a rebuttal, Uber disclosed data to Buzzfeed that showed the company received fewer than 170 claims of sexual assaults directly related to an Uber ride. However, according to Buzzfeed, Uber declined BuzzFeed News request to grant direct access to the data, or view its data analysis procedures and continued to assert that the high number of queries from the screenshots is overstated. In addition, Uber is notorious for being unclear on how it vets drivers criminal backgrounds. Last August, district attorneys of Los Angeles and San Francisco made charges against Uber for misleading In the U.S., more than 100 million animals are tortured due to animal experimentation practices classified as any testing that is likely to induce pain or suffering among creatures. These animals include rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, rats and mice. During trials, animals are forced to eat or inhale certain substances, exposed to radiation, placed in stressful situations and sometimes their organs are removed to observe the internal effects of medications. If these statements make you feel overwhelmed, it is time you know the truth behind the products that you use. Brands like Maybelline, Clorox, Vaseline, Mac, Dove, Febreeze, Tide and Marc Jacobs use animal testing to check. If you were as shocked as I was when finding out that these companies choose to harm animals for the sake of their goods keep reading. Although a bill was introduced to the U.S. in 2015 in regards to ending cosmetic testing, there is still more that can be done. Going cruelty-free may be difficult, especially if you are reliant on certain brands. Substituting make-up brands for those that do not support animal testing forces manufacturers to be aware of animal safety. Scientists have been making strides in pushing safer measures to protect these animals and creating new ways of testing products. Animal testing will soon no longer be needed and should be banned. ANOTHER WAY OF THINKING The problem is that [animal testing] hasn t worked, and it s time we stopped dancing around the problem, said Elias Zerhouni, former director of National Institutes of Health Research to People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA). We need to refocus and adapt new methodologies for use in humans to understand disease biology in humans. A method that can replace animal testing is harvesting human cells to replicate human organs and functions. Harvard s Wyss Institute is introducing organs-on-chips, which will mimic a humans physiology so its customers about their methods on screening drivers. Attorneys say that the business failed to uncover the criminal records of 25 drivers in the two cities. DIFFERENT MEANS TO AN END Arguments that favor Uber and Lyft say that ridesharing and taxi cabs are the same. Lobbyists for ridesharing businesses work hard to make sure that their state s laws follow their business models. When Kansas legislators passed a bill that required additional insurance coverage for drivers and stricter background checks, Uber pulled their business out of the state. Kansas lawmakers immediately compromised and passed a law that proposed less regulations on Uber by eliminating the clause that forced stricter background checks on drivers. Although these kinds of services are modern and pushing society THE US IS LAGGING BEHIND Although there are organizations within the U.S. such as PETA and Coalition for Consumer Information on Cosmetics that promote animal cruelty free products, there are further advancements that need to be made within our government. European and 30 other nations are already one step ahead of the U.S. with testing and marketing bans against cosmetic products tested on animals. The U.S. already has a bill that would phase out animal practices in the cosmetology department. Now, it is just a matter of passing it. WHY IS ANIMAL-TESTING A POPULAR OPTION? In the U.S., animal testing is not illegal and is supported by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). According to the FDA, the agency has consistently advised I won t be getting a Lyft anytime soon Ride-sharing services are still unsafe for consumers towards a more technology-friendly future, they still provide the same services to customers as taxi cabs through a different medium. Rather than waiting at a taxi stop or madly waving at a taxi driver, TNCs use an app on a mobile device to connect drivers and riders. The result, however, is exactly the same for both businesses, they get a consumer from one place to another. Thus, TNCs should be subject to the same regulations as taxi businesses. I WON T BE GETTING A LYFT ANYTIME SOON Who s Driving You? is a public awareness campaign that highlights the risks of Uber and Lyft. It studied the effects of deregulating the taxi cab industry in the 70s and 80s. They found that because of the deregulated prices for taxi riders increased, vehicle quality decreased, driver quality decreased and accidents increased due to an in this type of testing. Past incidents, including one in the 1930s when a dozen women went blind due to mascara that burned skin, have proven that certain cosmetics can be hazardous. This method is used for cosmetics, food, drugs and medical devices. Scientists also believe that since animals share a close biological relation with humans, they re an ideal candidate for experimentation. This perception is false. Up to 92 percent of experimental drugs that are safe for animals fail human trials because it is either ineffective or dangerous. Even primates, who have very similar genetic make-up to humans, fell short in making drugs completely safe for people. Consequently, because results of these trials are not always accurate, this process ends up being wasteful, expensive and ineffective. Ka Leo O Hawai i increase in a number of inexperienced and untrained drivers on the road. If ride-sharing businesses continue to go unregulated, history may repeat itself. Unlike taxi drivers, Uber and Lyft drivers are not subject to the same background checks, insurance requirements, and training as taxi drivers. Personally, I love being able to purchase and order things and services online. However, if I cannot guarantee that I am safe using the products and services, I will not use it. The questionable hiring and background checking methods of TNCs makes me feel susceptible to the same horrible fates as other constomers. Until the government places stricter regulations on TNCs, I will probably stick to the bus or traditional taxi cab to get me around town. What do you think? Let us know @KaLeoOpinions

06 MONDAY, MAY 02, 2016 OPINIONS KA LEO O HAWAI I: THE VOICE The Peace Corps and University of Hawai i Preparing Americans for service, past and present CARLA KOOP CONTRIBUTING WRITER Today, the Waipi o Valley is a quiet and remote place at the northeastern end of the Big Island of Hawai i. But in the early years of the Peace Corps, this lush and isolated valley hummed with activity, as it was an important University of Hawai i (UH) training site for new Peace Corps volunteers destined for rural assignments in the South Pacific and Southeast Asia. By the time the UH Peace Corps Training Program closed in 1972 after nearly a decade in operation, about 5,500 volunteers had been trained in the islands. Phillip Olsen was the UH Peace Corps training director from late 1967 until shortly before the program closed in 1972. Waipi o was a unique training site where strict target language rules and unfamiliar living and eating conditions required trainees to demonstrate flexibility and a willingness to adapt, Olsen said. Pre-service training now occurs abroad, but UH plays an increasingly vital role in the recruitment of new Peace Corps volunteers. Matthew Fraterman, a 2013 alum currently serving in Togo, feels that his time at UH prepared him well for the Peace Corps. While my classes at UH taught me the importance of examining the world on a macro level, the people [both students and professors] taught me to keep an open mind, which is by far one of the most important things you can do in the Peace Corps, Fraterman said. As many UH students look toward graduation and beyond this month, they might wonder how to best use the wealth of experience and knowledge they ve gained at UH. Inspiration for the future might come from the many UH students, faculty and alumni who ve advanced personal, academic and professional interests while serving abroad in the Peace Corps. Fraterman feels that serving as a gender and education volunteer since August 2014 has been an invaluable experience that will feed into his future education and career pursuits. I think the most important work skills I gained were facilitating trainings and community organizing, Fraterman said. I think I want to pursue a career path that focuses on these skills. Fraterman plans to study international relations at London s School of Oriental and African Studies after completing his service. Grace Magruder is a second-year law student at UH and campus representative for the Peace Corps. She is impassioned about the projects she supported while serving in two different countries in West Africa from 2011 to 2013. My favorite projects were the National Women s Conference and Trade Fair in Togo, Magruder said. Promoting gender empowerment and supporting your local economy continue to be key issues that I think the most important work skills I gained were facilitating trainings and community organizing. I advocate for as a law student. As an education volunteer in Colombia between 2013 and 2015, Ashley Huebscher gained experience that paved the way for her post-service education and professional life. My Peace Corps service gave me the experience of teaching English as a second language, which opinions@kaleo.org @kaleoopinions Kimberlee Speakman Opinions Editor opened up an entirely new career path for me, Huebscher said. I am now working at the University of Hawai i as an ESL instructor. My service also inspired me to get my master s degree in Second Language Studies. Jane Marie MacDonald, a 2014 UH graduate, is currently serving as an education volunteer in the Dominican Republic. Still in her first year of service, MacDonald does not yet know what the future will bring. But her Peace Corps experience has already left an indelible mark on her spirit, as it does on so many volunteers. I am still not sure what career path I will take, or where I will go after my Peace Corps service, Mac- Donald said. Whatever I choose it will be something of passion and heart because that is exactly what Brooke Alcuran Associate Opinions Editor COURTESY OF UH MĀNOA PEACE CORPS UH Mānoa is ranked 20th among medium schools on the Peace Corps 2016 Top Volunteer-Producing Colleges list. MATHEW FRATERMAN 2013 UH MĀNOA ALUMNUS Peace Corps is teaching me here. Being able to join a community and become part of their lives, to interact solely in Spanish, and to teach young children to read and write is a gift I will cherish and use in my future.

ZEBLEY FOSTER / ASSOCIATE COPY EDITOR Vision, the 2016 Bachelor of Fine Arts Exhibition, features the work of campus art students. In the Main Gallery, you ll find work in mediums like fiber, ceramics, painting/drawing, glass, screen printing, photography and sculpture. Work from the graphic design students can be found in the Commons Gallery, where they provided graphic design work for non-profit organizations in Hawai i. Below are some of the artists statements. 4.24 5.13 10 AM 4 PM ART GALLERY Main & Commons Gallery FREE Admission ONCE IN A TIME AHEAD O AHU PETRICHOR ELASTIC SEQUENCE LOCKED-IN The evidence of geology shows how insignificant we are in the grand scheme of evolution. I am curious about the developing notion of the Anthropocene, where traces of humanity can be seen in the geologic record. How are human time and earth time connected? What can we learn by examining those relationships closely through the lense of painting? In this work, my observation and understanding of geological processes are represented in imagined landscapes of the future. In my process, the individual marks represent ways the land bears and records history. O ahu, being formed and shaped by salt water as a primary material, suggests a collaborative gesture with the ocean. Collecting from the six moku, or district coastlines, the waters used to create this drawing are allowed to flow, mix and dry freely, invoking the visual sensations of coastal topography and tides. Suspended in the convergence of land and sea, O ahu examines both the physical and theoretical boundary located at the cessation of land, and explores the inherent continuity and connectivity carried through the realm of water. O ahu strives to emulate a seamless connection between island and ocean; one that traverses seas linking all land and people. Through my art I explore these aspects of natural inspiration. In this particular piece, I have attempted at literally suspending time, creating a moment impossible to witness unless a video is paused or a photographed is captured; the moment when the leaves are stolen by the wind. Incredibly inspired by nature I explore the beautiful aspects and color possibilities found within nature, within my own medium. When the semester began, I thought that creating a glass tree was the proper thing to do, until I realized a tree will always be a tree. Elastic Sequence is an intersection of non-conventional use of materials and traditional apparel construction. The garment and the dance performance share and ephemeral quality. The video of the dance performance captures the garment s flexible nature and suggests its transient state. In the relationship of the dancer and the glue both behave in an elastic manner yet, there comes a time when all of that will be lost. The notion of impermanence also applies to the dancer himself, as certain life events imple him to experience change. This piece is based on interviews with an end-of-life care nurse and her unique perspective of the process of dying. One of the quotes that stood out during the interview was the idea of a person s mind being alert even though they lost control of half of their body. The four panels of the box represent limbs and common fears associated with dying. The central tower represents the mind and how she provides support during those last days.

10 MONDAY, MAY 02, 2016 KA LEO O HAWAI I: THE VOICE SPORTS sports@kaleo.org @kaleosports Drew Afualo Sports Editor Zach Johnson Associate Sports Editor Ambition and moxie The inside story of UH s own Red Rifle ZACH JOHNSON ASSOCIATE SPORTS EDITOR Just be patient. These are words junior quarterback Hunter Hughes has lived by since walking onto the UH football team two years ago. In doing so, Hughes has taken on a new meaning of not taking no for an answer and worked hard in order to improve his craft. This is the third year in a row [I ve tried out for UH football]. I made it my first year and they told me to be ready for fall camp, but then they brought in Max Wittek, Hughes said. I had to sit that fall so I tried out again last spring and I didn t make it, but this year I tried out and they decided to give me a shot. Despite the shortcomings Hughes has maintained an even-keel attitude throughout the process. Whenever you are a walk-on, you just kind of sign up for that stuff. I knew I had the talent and that I could contribute in one way or another. It really just fueled me more to keep working, Hughes said. We re only in college one time. We might as well give everything we have to something that we truly love. However, football wasn t the first choice when Hughes came to Hawai i. I tried out for baseball, but [I] didn t make it through the first round of cuts, Hughes said. I was training with some guys for that next year s baseball season and they told me to give football a chance. I always had the arm strength, I just needed to get out there and get my feet back under me. With this competitive fire and the drive to try and compete, Hughes got on a diet, worked out and started to develop his passing skills by practicing with other walk-on hopefuls. It didn t really feel like it was hard work, I was just training with my guys on the field. That was the most fun part about it, getting on the team was the cherry on top, Hughes said. But the process and the every day commitment to each other, it gave you something else to work for other than just school. Hughes was no stranger to working We re only in college one time. We might as well give everything we have to something that we truly love. HUNTER HUGHES UH FOOTBALL QUARTERBACK hard towards a goal. Prior to coming to UH, the 23-year old Lake Zurich, Illinois native was recruited by the Lesley University baseball team. The offer had been a dream of Hughes, however, after graduation, instead of heading to Boston for baseball, he spent two years traveling the world and working with Youth With a Mission (YWAM) in Nepal, Sudan, London and Taiwan. I was a pastor s kid, so growing up around missions and different things like that, I wanted to give back and serve one way or another, Hughes said. I built schools, taught English and did some food and water distribution. It was the best decision of my life. It really shaped me into who I am today. Darrin Hughes Hunter s father has backed his son s choice and has been proud of his son s growth since. Not only did [Hunter] grow and mature physically while he was gone, but he grew in his world view, Darrin said. He returned home more concerned with living a life of significance than just success. Coupled with his athletic prowess, the red rifle as he s known amongst his teammates has one other passion that even rivals his drive for sports: animation. When Hughes is not working out or studying film, he expresses his creativity with drawing and animation. Once school and football is done, I want to go work for Pixar. I ve always been able to see things and translate it on paper, and it s the same thing as sports. You have to pay attention to the finer details in both if you want to reach that next level. I made a Division I football team, so I m hoping to walk on to the big time for animation too. According to Hughes, being an artist actually utilizes the same skill set an athlete needs on the field as well. The two worlds don t always merge, but I think they are completely connected. You need attention to detail and a critical eye for mistakes in order to reach that next level, Hughes said. My grind on the field is the same as my grind in my creativity. With spring ball complete, Hughes will return to the grind on ZACH JOHNSON / KA LEO O HAWAI I Before trying out for UH football, Hughes also tried out for UH baseball. his off time and await the word on whether he will make the fall roster for the 2016 season.
