Saunders Hall is the place to be green this Friday, as University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa sustainability groups like HUB (Help Us Bridge) celebrate Earth Day with a Sustainable Saunders Launch Party. The April 20 party will be an opportunity for students, faculty and community members to celebrate the pursuit of sustainable preservation on campus and throughout the world with music, food and camaraderie. The event will also provide a chance to voice all thoughts, ideas and opinions about the campus sustainability pilot project. Rooms at the “Interactive Launch Party” will be covered with graffiti paper, and everybody will be encouraged to write their ideas and visions about sustainability on the walls. Music will fill the halls as Paula Fuga, Makana, Celtic music, African dance and Capoeira start the party off during the day. After 7 p.m., performers Organix, DJ HOP, the InLight Fire Performance Troupe and others will keep the campus rockin’ until 11 p.m. According to Juanita Matthews, the party’s media coordinator, organic and local lunches will be provided by Ono Pono and others. Topics like recycling and alternative energy will be discussed in the rooms described as “no drone zones” – since there will be no ceremo-nies, lectures or presentations. The campus will also be testing its first renewable energy demonstra-tion project: “A biodiesel generator that will power the Courtyard’s two perma-nent food kiosks, installing its second

Competition.” The art competition was open to everybody in three entry lev-els: Elementary (K to 8th grade), high school, college and community and was in two categories: 2D art, focused in either drawing and painting or photogra-phy and digital imagery, and 3D art, cre-ating a sculpture drinking fountain. All of the submitted works will be shown to the public during the Launch Party. Art displayed will represent the values and visions of sustainability. Laura Couto, an art student, seems excited about the art contest’s focus on environmental issues. “Its a great way to get people’s cre-ativity flowing and to get them excited about sustainability,” Couto said.

More than 1,000 Facebook groups and MySpace pages started in response to Monday’s deadly shooting, some supporting victims and others blaming 23-year-old gun-man Cho Seung-Hui. Blogs and social network sites have changed ways of communi-cating and coping with tragedy, as younger generations use the Internet to discuss and to express feelings about the massacre. On many pages, people have removed their profile photos and replaced them with a black ribbon and Virginia Polytechnic University logo. Thousands of miles from Blacksburg, VA, University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa students recog-nized the online mourning by add-ing the UH logo and the phrase, “All One Ohana. Today, we are all Hokies” to the profile photo. UHM alum Gary McRawr and sociology major Milena Kulig created separate Facebook groups, both of which have more than 200 members. “I’m hoping to get UH alums and current students [and] facul-ty involved,” McRawr said, “and

From playing in the dirt at the native plant garden to checking out some of the 110 attending experts, the Launch Party seems to have some-thing for everyone. The rooms of Saunders Hall will be overflowing with experts from a wide array of sustainability fields like recy-cling, worm bin composting, bicycling, environmental justice, biodiesel/hydro-gen/ethanol and energy/water conserva-tion. The themed floors and their experts will provide a chance to share knowl-edge in a casual and carefree setting. The Launch Party will also fea-ture submissions from the “E(art)h

The University of Hawaii’s Information Technology Services has completed a re-evaluation of the cur-rent learning management system, WebCT Campus Edition 4. As a result, UH will likely move to a new learning system when the contract expires in the fall of 2008. In February 2006, WebCT merged with its rival Blackboard Inc. As a result of this combined market power, licensing costs to UH have increased vastly and the school is considering other options to replace WebCT. The University of Hawai‘i adopt-ed WebCT in 1997 to implement e–learning, bringing the dynamics of a classroom environment to the Web.

It allows faculty, staff and students to interact in real time through learning tools, discussion boards, mail systems, live chat and content such as docu-ments and Web pages. According to ITS chief informa-tion officer David Lassner’s technol-ogy newsletter, WebCT’s licensing costs to UH will triple in this current contract period alone. The university has found itself in a position where it’s time to move on. But moving to a new system can be time consuming and complex, accord-ing to Kenwrick Chan, Instructional Technology Development Coordinator at ITS. “ITS is very committed to offer and support a learning management system for the University of Hawai‘i,” Chan said. “It will be LMS supported,

UH considers new online course management system

and we are working hard to make the transition as smooth as possible for students and faculty.” Chan explained that when the current contract with WebCT ends, the company is also ending product support – however, it does have a replacement system. “Transitioning to their ‘new’ ver-sion of WebCT will not necessarily be any easier than a transition to other competing products,” Chan said. “As a result, we’re considering other alter-natives.” Sandra Wu, professor at UH Mānoa, said it will be very inconve-nient to change to a new system for those who have learned WebCT and have used it for years.

possibly even the community colleges across the state to be aware of the situ-ation.” McRawr started the group “UH is praying for Virginia Tech” the day 32 people and the gunman were killed, becoming the deadliest shooting in U.S. history. Thirty people joined Kulig’s group, “UH Mānoa Supports Virginia Tech,” within the first five minutes of creating it Monday evening, and by Tuesday it had grown to more than 200 members. Kulig started the group after joining one from another school and realizing that UHM did not have one. “The turnout is way better than I thought it would be,” she said. “Honestly, I was just thinking that a few people who were as shocked and saddened by the situation like I was would join.” Other people have used these social networks to vent about the shoot-ing and its killer. More than 200 online

groups on both Facebook and MySpace started in response to the Virginia Tech senior and immigrant from South Korea. Virginia Tech students described him as a loner who said little. “He should of just shot himself and not killed anyone, but no, he had to make everyone suffer,” wrote Cory

“There was a learning curve for a lot of professors when it started and went through numerous interface changes,” Wu said. “In fact, most of the adopters at UH are just getting good at it now and are able to indepen-dently put their courses online.” “I had to help a lot of colleagues to put their courses on WebCT before,” Wu said, “and most of them still feel like walking on the thin ice when using it.” Wu is hopeful that the new learn-ing system will not only provide more interactive features but also be more user friendly. “All of the newer systems are generally considered much more user friendly,” Chan said. “We will cer-tainly have more functional up-to-date features.” Lassner wrote in his newsletter that ITS wants to assure students and faculty that “the process of selecting a new system will be consultative in nature and will include a migra-tion process that minimizes the work required to move your online courses from the current learning management system to the new one.” According to Chan, the ITS department constantly gets feedback from students and faculty. “We had a formal, university-wide survey last year, and we had a pretty good sample pool of users lik-ing as well as not liking the product,” he said. “What is generally overlooked in user feedback, especially negative, is that it’s a pretty narrowly focused application set that generally doesn’t have concepts in use that are transfer-able.” Chan said the one thing that has always been a factor for ITS has been the investment that faculty have put into developing their content as well as learning the application. WebCT started many years ago as a grassroots project in 1996 by University of British Columbia faculty member Murray W. Goldberg, who sought to improve student academ-ic performance through Web–based course tools. Christen Wong, a student at UHM, said that she remembers when she used to check only her syllabus online. “Now I can access all course

readings, my assignments, online quizzes. It is so easy to communicate with everyone in the class,” she said. “I have taken a few online courses and WebCT becomes sort of a supplement for face-to-face conversations. I like WebCT.” ITS has initiated an evaluation process to determine which CMS plat-form it should move to next. Chan said that ITS is looking at various alterna-tives. According to ITS’s Web site, two of the most likely systems UH might choose for learning management are Moodle and Sakai. The Sakai Collaboration and Learning Environment is the most likely approach for UH. Michigan, Indiana, MIT and Stanford founded Sakai as the community source project to build an online collaboration and learning environment led by a group of colleges and universities around the world. According to ITS’s Web site, Sakai offers cost-effective e-Portfolio services, MyUH portal course tools with the supported e-learning environ-ment, the ability to use a single online environment for e-learning and other kinds of UH-wide and global collabo-ration. Moodle is a mature open-source learning management system in use around the world, in which individual contributors add features and contrib-ute them to central distribution where they can be used by others. According to ITS’s Web site, most of the current Moodle implementations are much smaller and much less complex than what UH requires to provide inte-grated services in our multi-campus environment. In summary, Sakai is less mature than Moodle and has fewer implemen-tations in production today; however, most of its initial implementations are in complex environments such as UH. ITS will hold a public presenta-tion about Sakai and its possibilities for UH this Friday, April 20, between 1 and 3:30 p.m. at Kuykendall Hall, room 201. Students and faculty are encouraged to attend and present their suggestions and requests. For more information, visit http://www.hawaii.edu/its/sakai/. Online support for the learn-ing environment at UH continues to develop, but the future might look a little different. Only one thing is certain: As of fall 2008, students and faculty at UHM will log in to a “new” course management system.

WebCT, a popular service used by UH professors for online teaching, will likely go offline after its contract expires next fall

Hills, a student from Wellsville Senior High School in New York, in the “I Hope Cho Seung-Hui Burns in Hell” group. Racist remarks about Cho appeared throughout online blogs and social sites in response to his South Korean ethnicity. Some blog-gers called him “a Kim Chee eating mofo,” while others referred to him as a “slanted eye freak.” But having a negative reaction after a tragedy is typical, accord-ing to the American Psychological Association. University psycholo-gists nationwide created a Web site with advice on how to cope with the Virginia Tech shooting. Negative viewpoints should be balanced to maintain a healthier per-spective of one’s self and the world, the APA Web site states. In Facebook group “Cho Seung-Hui is pure evil,” Tennessee Brentwood High School student Leigh Durham was the first out of the 85 members to comment in sup-port of Cho, sparking crude remarks from others in the group. “How about people stop focus-ing on this guy and think about all the people that were affected by this,” she wrote on the posting wall. “Wasting your time bashing this guy isn’t going to make things any bet-ter.” One student from Drexel University in Pennsylvania called Durham a moron and an idiot an hour after she posted her comment. Asking for support, online or in-person, can be comforting and helps because speaking with others who share similar experiences pre-vents feelings of loneliness, accord-ing to the APA site. Because cellphone networks, like Verizon Wireless, became stressed hours after the shoot-ing, people shifted to the Internet. Virginia Tech students created an “I’m ok at VT” group in Facebook, which included a list of murdered and injured victims. The West Virginia Blogger compiled personal sites for those killed as an online memorial. Others traded photos and videos online as well.

A Virginia Tech student created a Myspace memorial page for those affected by the shoot-ing. Talking to others through online network sites and balancing emotions after a tragedy help people to cope dur-ing its aftermath.

(depending on the amount submitted) will be displayed at an art gallery in Chinatown, providing the artists with public exposure and the opportunity to sell their pieces. Many students are excited about both the Launch Party and the progres-sion toward sustainability that UH is making. “It’s about time,” Couto said. “Hopefully the rest of UH won’t be far behind in pursuing campus sustainabil-ity.” The Launch Party is the beginning of what many hope will be a cam-pus-wide sustainability initiative. Some tentative plans for sustainability include instituting recycling programs in various buildings throughout the campus, zero-waste worm bins and finding ways to reduce UH’s electricity bills. Sponsors for UH Sustainability and the Launch Party include Inter-Island Solar Supply, the Kokua Festival and Sustain Hawai‘i. Whether the word “sustainability” sounds like a foreign language to you or you’ve got your own worm bin compost at home, the party is an opportunity to learn, network and have a good time, knowing that you did the Earth good.

Universities are institutes of high-er learning, but most importantly they are promoters of social change. The concentration of multiple disciplines – combined with the idealistic passions of students – make change possible. The fight for women’s rights, civil rights and ending the war in Vietnam were all largely dependent on student activism. Considering all the issues that presently face us, it is extremely impor-tant that students make their voices heard and set examples that the rest of the nation can follow. Currently, the state of our environ-ment is a pressing issue that desperately needs to be addressed. Not only can we as students bring attention to this issue, we can also provide the model for how it can be resolved. Many students at the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa are trying to do just that – the UHM Geology Club, the UHM Sierra Club and Sustainable Saunders have started a recycling program here on campus. They have dived in dumpsters, counted trash, compiled data and serviced bins because they believe in sustainabil-ity. With over $1.5 million being spent on electricity per month, this campus needs students to step up. Our tuition money pays for air conditioning year round because we get so much sun, but that same solar energy can be used to power this university. The UHM Sierra Club is trying to pro-mote solar energy and has even started a solar panel fund. Sustainable Saunders’ energy team have examined the energy use at Saunders Hall and have talked

with energy project developers about what changes can be done to make the building more energy efficient. An energy-monitoring program is being put in place at Saunders Hall to determine where energy can be saved and to provide data about the impact that particular projects will have. One of those projects is the installation of a green roof on Saunders Hall – one of many around campus that will be used to collect data on which species of plant works best. Our university is supporting these projects and facilitat-ing this change. This Friday, the UHM Earth Day celebration will unveil a biodiesel gen-erator that will power the two food kiosks in the Sustainability Courtyard. In addition, experts from the univer-sity and the community will come to Saunders Hall and interact with the public on issues including alternative energy, conservation, environmental justice, green architecture and whole project financing. The opportunities for students to get involved in the sustainability move-ment and voice their ideas and concerns will be numerous. Senator Russell Kokubun who serves on the Hawai‘i State Legislature committee for energy and environment will be attending as well as Keith Rollman – the sustain-ability advisor to the mayor. Hawai‘i is ready to make the change to a sustain-able way of life. It is time for UHM students to realize that change is happening here on campus and that the resources are there for them to become involved. In the words of Mahatma Gandhi, “You must be the change you wish to see in the world.”

UHM has the potential to lead people to live sustainably

By Casey IshitaniKa Leo Comics Editor

America has an overbearing attitude of defeat-ism. There are fewer supporters of the president than there have ever been (call them “ethic minorities”), an unproductive Mobius Strip of political wedges damages the lines of discourse and TV has given us the choice between the divisive tactics of punditry or meaningless bourgeois pop-culture. When a Jeff Foxworthy game show has to show America how anti-intellectual it has become (“Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader?”), one begins contemplating how forlorn we should be. How did nationwide nihilism become something we face as a people? This is within a country that has a long tradition of recognizing the unity we hold after horrific events try to tear us apart. Far be it from this atheist to start preaching the dogmas of Christianity, but what happened to the proactive spirit of the Land of the Free? The attitude Americans give off seems like little more than the defeated sigh of a serf, tilling the fields with little protest or hope for a better world. The president breaks the law? “All politicians are crooked, anyway.” Gas prices are rising because of a possible war with Iran? “They’ll go down, eventually.” The newspaper prints banal material when it should be used to inform you and stimulate your thinking? “I can’t read

beyond a sixth-grade level, so what’s the big deal?” Morality may be a fluid thing between cultures, but one does at least recognize that morals have basic similarities – doctrines and practices notwithstanding. Morality is what keeps humanity from decimating itself with nuclear weaponry. Morality is what keeps most men from raping the first female in sight in order to procreate. Morality is what should set certain boundaries in order to differentiate between what is admissible and what is an invasion of one’s very state of being. The American people have been so accustomed to lies and repudiations that they have either lost the ability to tell when they are being violated or just do not care anymore. Morality has no base. Earth Day is tomorrow. Good intentions and good practices will be set into motion against the passive-aggressive tide of nihilism. Is this how it will be – the few incensed individuals versus the mass of uncaring and unthinking lemmings who have no set goal but the sea cliff into the abyss? My problem with those tending their little booths and making their statements of intent: why worry about Earth? The Earth – which has survived solar flares, asteroids, ice ages and Phish fans – will still be here no matter what this petty species throws at it. Humans will be the ones starving. Humans will be the ones competing with each other over the high ground. Humans will be the ones destroying each other for being forgotten, unwarranted and pushed to the breaking point. Martin Heidegger put it best: “The most though-provoking thing in our thought-provoking time is that we are still not thinking.”

Brief look at upcoming 'Centennial Seven'By Moanike‘ala NabarroKa Leo Contributing Reporter

The College of Tropical Agriculture and Human Resources here at the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa will be holding their annual fashion show at the Sheraton Waikīkī Ballroom this Sunday. This year’s show, entitled Centennial Seven, is properly attrib-uted to the featured seven senior designers from the Apparel Product Design and Merchandising Program and the celebration of the 100th anniversary of UH. The designers were required, but not limited to, creating five pieces for their indi-vidual collections along with sub-mitting three additional garments that embodied three set categories. Centennial, the first category, proposes designs that are reminis-cent of fashions 100 years back. “The couture category emu-lates the theme, ‘Til Death Do Us Part,’ which features dresses that are so beautiful you don’t want

to take them off,” said Summer Holcomb, a junior Fashion Design and Merchandising major. Art Attack is the last category. It

translates clothing to wearable art. According to Assistant Professor Diane Chung, the seven senior design-ers are no strangers to the runway, with last year’s fashion show featur-ing two garments from each student which gave them a sneak peak into creating an entire line. In the 36 years that Chung has been teaching here at UH, she has seen her students proceed to design in Milan, Germany, Hong Kong and at high fashion designer power-houses such as Versace. “I would like to see Native Hawaiians come forward as entre-preneurs,” Chung said. Former student and famed local designer Puamana Crabbe repre-sents a part of Chung’s dream. “It makes me proud when I see that [former students] succeeded,” Chung said.

The designers that will be debuting their collections on Sunday are Brandie Cazimero, Leah Evans, Keri Haraga, Jamie Higa, Kelly Mammel, Liezel Grace Pagala and Andrea Wu. Funding for the annual fash-ion show is provided on behalf of the APDM students selling tickets for the event and holding various fundraisers such as the “Style and Sin” Fashion Show Fundraiser that was held at the O Lounge in early March. Tickets for Centennial Seven are $35 and can be purchased at the back entrance of Miller Hall or via e-mail at UHMFashionShow@yahoo.com. Doors open at 11 a.m. and lunch will start promptly at 12 p.m. with the fashion show to fol-low at 12:45 p.m.

Most recently known for his public “Save Disney” campaign against former chair person of the Walt Disney Company, Michael Eisner, Roy Disney has been invited by the Academy of Creative Media for the first time on Friday at 5 p.m. to lecture in the auditorium of the School of Architecture. Isaac Warsh, a senior majoring in ACM, said Roy Disney’s lecture is a great opportunity for all stu-dents to listen and possibly interact with the nephew of the legendary Walt Disney. “I think that is one thing that has definitely been provided here ... by the faculty at ACM: the oppor-tunities to meet with filmmakers in the business and executives and such,” Warsh said. Roy Disney’s life is as ani-mated as a Disney cartoon. When not sailing across the Pacific in the Transpacific Race, which travels from Los Angeles to Hawai‘i, he serves as a director emeritus to the Walt Disney Company. Born in Los Angeles, Roy Disney was raised around the car-toon industry and in 1954, start-ed working for the Walt Disney Company, producing “True-Life Adventure” films. Tom Brislin, chairperson and president of the ACM department, said this lecture is an opportunity for all students as “there is a great deal of interest in animation and animated film.” Brislin underscored the unique-ness of this opportunity, quoting director of ACM Chris Lee, “Roy Disney is the crown jewel in our Master Class series this academic year. He is truly animation roy-alty.” If interested in attending, please contact Lily Ching at the Academy for Creative Media at 956-7736 or e-mail at lilychin@hawaii.edu. The public is welcome to attend, but space is limited.

Hopping AroundBy Patricia wilson

1959 The University Music Department was created in 1947 and was housed in what is now Bachman Annex 2. In 1948, the department moved to a now non-existent army bungalow and theater that was located at the current KHET site. In 1959, it moved once more, but this time to its final location. Here it was equipped with an administrative building, classrooms, teaching studios, a practice room, a choral build-ing and a band building. However, the old band building had to be torn down in 1969 to make room for new music facilities that were needed to accommodate the rapidly growing department.

and co-director Sasha Dominy haven’t had a second to relax since taking on the esteemed positions, and won’t until the last girl has stepped off the runway. Nishida has been so busy that he was unable to sit down to talk to Ka Leo, and resorted to an e-mail interview. “Every day has been a chal-lenge,” Nishida said, juggling his full-time student status as a psychol-ogy major with a full-time unpaid job as director. He was warned of the commit-ment before entering, but has never taken advantage of the importance of his role, considering his opportunity as “a once-in-a-lifetime” situation. His colleagues call him the “optimistic” director that always has a positive way to deal with a hard sit-uation. Nishida said that although he is called late into the night by com-mittee members, and has worked on overtime for the past four months, he feels fortunate to have a good staff that is behind him. Beyond meetings and decisions for the show, Nishida also is planning to graduate this May with a degree in Psychology. Psychology and fashion are two seemingly diverse interests, but Nishida has carefully chosen this

path, and is devising a niche for him-self in the fashion industry in con-sumer behavior and fashion merchan-dising. The benefits of all these devot-ed fashion students’ work has made their mark in the ever-growing fash-ion industry in the state. As Nishida and many of the committee mem-bers have observed, the relationships established from this event are life-long and career smart. “The networking possibilities created are unmatched,” Nishida said. The production crew has faced many obstacles this year and will con-tinue, like they do every year, to make the fashion show a reality through their persistence and perseverance. As the saying goes, “The show must go on.”

KTUH jams for a noble cause at Indigo

By Tracy ChanKa Leo Staff Reporter

On Friday, KTUH 90.3 FM and the Indigo nightclub in Chinatown will be hosting a dif-ferent kind of party – this one to celebrate and raise aware-ness for Earth Day. The event, coordinated by DJ G-Spot, aka Greg Dehnert, and the KTUH crew, will donate part of the rev-enue to charitable organizations including Greenpeace, the World Wildlife Federation and Sierra Club. “KTUH is always fighting for the noble cause, and Earth Day is such a positive kind of theme

for a party,” said DJ Rhombus, aka David Lum, a KTUH DJ who often hosts the alumni radio show on Saturday afternoons. “In past events you kind of get lost in partying and the music and Earth Day takes a back stage.” This Earth Day celebration is a “Friends of KTUH” benefit concert. Traditionally, KTUH and its sponsors in the community hold a benefit once every semes-ter. The benefit concerts, which have been going on for over five years, are not only a good way for DJs to get their names out and mingle with the community, but they generate funding for both KTUH and nonprofit charities. This Earth Day, over 22 past and present KTUH DJs are expected to spin at Indigo. With three rooms of music, and genres ranging from hip hop, drum and bass, house and reggae to ’80s retro and power pop, there will

be something for everyone to dance to. “I’ve been to the Earth Day event in the past,” Rhombus said, “and it’s always a good time when the KTUH DJs do their thing.” DJ G-Spot, the main coor-dinator for the event, said that the Earth Day theme started last year, when the benefit concert fell around Earth Day and the KTUH alumni and staff decided to give a portion of the proceeds to support environmental charities. G-Spot himself is a current member or has been a member in the past of all three of the environmental organi-zations. “I love KTUH and the envi-ronment,” G-Spot said of the deci-

If you think the 15th-ranked University of Hawai‘i softball team couldn’t get any better, try watching them play against themselves. That’s exactly what happened Tuesday evening at the Rainbow Wahine Stadium on the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa campus. Sure, they scrimmaged against Chaminade University first and handled them easily, 5-0, but it still looked like UH was playing against themselves. That’s because Wahine pitcher Jessica Morton and catcher Stacey Yamada played for Chaminade in the first game. Hawai‘i starter Kate Robinson cruised to a two-hit complete game shutout win. In the second game, UH White faced off against UH Black in a clas-sic pitcher’s duel. Starters Justine Smethurst and Courtney Baughman were just plain showing off, domi-nating their teammates and keeping the game scoreless through the sixth inning. It was Smethurst who would get the last laugh in this friendly duel. With runners at the corners and no outs in the seventh, Smethurst lined Baughman’s pitch into center field for the game winning RBI, a 1-0 victory for Smethurst and the White. With only three games left on their home schedule, this weekend’s series against Fresno State is an excit-ing final chance to watch fantastic softball action. The Bulldogs come into the game touting a number 24 ranking of their own, and they have a bone to pick with the Rainbow Wahine to settle this Western Athletic Conference rivalry. Fresno State comes into the game with an 8-1 conference record and a 35-14 mark overall. Situated in second place, right behind the 11-1 Rainbow Wahine, the Bulldogs know that if they

can win the series, they have a chance at overtaking first place in the WAC. The Rainbow Wahine, led by head coach Bob Coolen, have no intention of that happening. After a strong week of practice, the squad is ready to play for real in front of their own fans once again. The Wahine are coming off a 7-1 road trip where the only game they lost was by one run and had to be settled in extra innings. The team is sharp, focused and ready to play anyone they have to in order to achieve their goal of win-

ning the WAC championship. The Wahine pitching staff is led by Smethurst (15-6) and Robinson (12-0), who boast earned run averages of 1.68 and 1.44 respectively. Not too shabby, and for those of you who think pitchers can’t hit, Robinson leads the team with 15 home runs this season. In addition to Robinson, the UH offensive attack is led by senior Tyleen Tausaga who is batting .401 on the year with 12 homers and scrappy third baseman Clare Warwick who comes into the FSU series batting .396 to go

with a monstrous 42 runs scored. This is an exciting time for UH softball. After completing my under-graduate work at the University of Miami and watching a couple of national championship teams per-form, I can tell you that this team is as solid as they come. They possess many of the intangibles needed to be successful including heart, pride and team chemistry. This team has represented the university with a sense of pride and professionalism all season long.

Before they head out on the road to finish their season, I believe we owe it to them to come out and watch them do what they do best. Games against Fresno State are scheduled for 6 p.m. Friday night and followed by two afternoon games Saturday at 2 and 4 p.m. at Rainbow Wahine Stadium.
