The Associated Students of the University of Hawai’i (ASUH), under the direction of president Andrew Itsuno, has increased scholarships to students and hopes to implement other cost-saving measures, extend the bus pass program, and reach out to programs within the university.

ATHLET ICS FEE Itsuno, vice president Anna Koethe, secretary Richard Mizusa-wa and treasurer Joshua Beets be-gan their terms in May. Since then, ASUH has largely opposed the $50 per-semester athletics fee, which was approved this summer by the Board of Regents (BOR) and will be implemented this spring. Consequently, ASUH will also

continue to meet with the admin-istration and athletics department in the spring to “ensure students receive fair benefi ts for paying the athletics fee,” said Itsuno by e-mail. The athletics department is currently working with a student committee comprised of repre-sentatives from ASUH, the Grad-uate Student Organization, the Student Activity Program and Fee Board and Campus Center Board

to collaborate on the benefi ts of the fee.

$30,000 last year. “Basically what we did when we were making our budget (was) cut a lot of money from other things. We prioritized it and made schol-arships number one and moved a lot of money over to scholarships,” said Itsuno.

(CONTINUED) UNIVERSITY BUS PASS PROGRAM Next semester, ASUH will seek to ensure the extension of the U-PASS bus pass program. The pilot program for UH Mānoa ends in the fall of next year, and Itsuno says ASUH hopes to ensure the continuity of the program. Currently, students pay $20 per

semester for unlimited access to the city bus. Itsuno says the cost of the fee may go up due to rising bus operation costs, but ASUH hopes to keep the cost the same or as low as possible. “We want to keep the pro-gram going because we’ve had a lot of feedback. We’ve ran sur-veys on it and the majority of the feedback is very supportive and in order to keep supporting the student body we’re going to go forward with pushing for the U-PASS,” he said.

STUDENT BOOK EXCHANGE Itsuno ran on a platform of protecting the university’s bud-

get, lowering textbook costs, and making student fees “responsible and transparent.” Itsuno said ASUH has been talking with In-formation Technology Services of UH Mānoa to potentially set up a website on which UH students can buy, sell and exchange books. “We’re going to lay the groundwork for it during the win-ter break and hopefully it will get done by the end of the spring se-mester,” said Itsuno.

DEPARTMENT OUTREACH PROGRAM Lastly, ASUH hopes to develop a department outreach program. “During the spring semester we will set up meetings with the

heads of various departments and find out what kind of programs they have that directly impact the student body and find ways to support them or fund them to help them carry out their goals,” said Itsuno. ASUH will work with groups such as LGBTI (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Inter-sex) Student Services, the Wom-en’s Center and other student ser-vices groups. “This is an agenda that would greatly help the student body and create a more personal connection, build bridges, and help them get things done,” It-suno said.

During the holiday season there have been many songs cre-ated for the sole purpose of get-ting us into the Christmas mood. However, some songs have caused people to cringe inside due to their repetitive and annoying na-ture. Here are a few songs that you might be able to do without this holiday season.

1. “THE 12 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS” While this carol can start out as innocent fun, after singing the re-petitive line, “fi ve golden rings” 12 times, it quickly becomes an-noying. Who really gives their true love “eight maids-a-milking” for Christmas?

2. ”SANTA BABY” Who came up with this song? Ap-parently no one stopped to realize that it ’s not exactly child friendly. Not only does the lead singer sounds like she’s fl irting with San-ta, she seems to have an ulterior motive for getting Santa to “hurry down the chimney tonight.”

3. “GRANDMA GOT RUN OVER BY A RE INDEER” This song is never okay, no mat-ter the holiday. How exactly does this put someone in the Christ-mas mood? If anybody bothered to listen to a few verses of the song, they’d fi nd that the be-reaved grandpa was actually okay with the loss of his spouse. Also, the family’s biggest concern is whether or not to open up the de-ceased grandma’s gifts. If anyone ran over a grandma, their license would be revoked and they prob-ably would be heading to jail.

4. “FEL IZ NAVIDAD” The writer of this song is serious-ly insulting our intelligence. Did he think we wouldn’t notice there are only two words in the entire song? Oh yeah, we noticed!

5. “I SAW MOMMY KISS ING SANTA CLAUS” Kid-friendly must be on the crite-ria of songs about the Christmas holiday. This song not only infers that mommy fi nds Santa attrac-tive, but it also implies that she’s willing to have an affair. Adding to the family drama, she’s seen doing so by one of her children.

6. “SANTA CLAUS I S COMING TO TOWN” This song is really not that bad. It ’s even okay after you hear it the fi rst 45,599 times. However, after the 45,600th time, its countless renditions, gets pretty annoying.

7.“RUDOLPH THE RED -NOSED RE INDEER” This song actually isn’t that bad

either. Even though the variations that kids learn at an early age, which includes shouting pointless echoes after each line, can get a teeny bit aggravating.

8. “HERE COMES SANTA CLAUS” So, where exactly is Santa Claus Lane? This song just has way too many verses, that when combined with the awkward rhythm, gets pretty annoying to learn.

9. “FROSTY THE SNOW MAN” Not exactly an annoying song, but the fact that it’s labeled as a Christ-mas song, and doesn’t mention Christmas once, is a little odd.

10. “THE LIT TLE DRUMMER BOY” Whether or not this song is aggra-vating depends on two factors: the particular singer’s rendition, and the percussion used for “pa rum pa pum pum.” It’s a pretty long song, over-complicating the ac-companying music, draws a fi ne line between clever and annoying.

Every day it’s the same old routine. I grab my gay mug and pour my gay self a gay cup of gay coffee, while I read my gay news briefs on my gay laptop, take a gay shower, and put on my gay clothes before taking the gay shuttle to my fi rst gay class of my gay day. After I eat my gay lunch - which, most of the gay time, I gay make in my gay kitchen - I some-times gay sit in my gay chair and gay think about my gay future. Someday, I want to gay meet a gay man who is gay interested in the same gay hobbies I gay have, who can gay appreciate someone who is good at gay cooking and likes to occasion-ally go out for some gay dates. I gay imagine that he would gay-love me whether I make the gay ef-fort to gay prepare a gay fondue or just have lazy, gay nights where we

order some gay takeout from our gay phones, sitting on our gay couch and

watching some gay movies. Maybe, if everything works out

in our gay life together, we could get to the gay point where I gay kneel

on one gay knee and give him a gay ring with a gay proposal speech. I haven’t worked out the gay details yet - something along the gay lines of a gay bouquet of gay roses is the gay Plan A. Plan B requires a gay boombox. But I know that it’s a gay scenar-io that gay guys like gay me can’t gay follow through on just yet. People who don’t approve of gay relation-ships are still, even now, standing in the way of gay people being able to gay express their gay love for the gay man or woman they gay choose. That’s a gay shame. One gay day, gay men and gay women should be able to gay choose who they want to be gay with - with-out people automatically labeling their gay relationship as some-thing inferior and different. I’m hoping that gay day comes in gay time for when I want to make a gay commitment to my gay boyfriend if I ever fi nd one. I’m gay confident, that we’re getting closer to the gay day when we can gaily proclaim that we can finally get gay married.

MICHAEL BREWER

Associate Opinions Editor

Because of noise issues at the dorms, housing staf f have begun the slow process of making Hale Wailani more of a totalitarian state. Staff held a meeting in November to discuss noise issues for the apartment-style dorms Hale Noelani and Hale Wainani — also known as “Hale Wailani.” Housing staf f are getting frustrated with the growing number of noise complaints they’ve been receiving from dor-mers and surrounding residences. Neigh-bors have threatened to call HPD multiple times since the begin-ning of the semester to silence loud voices and shouting coming from courtyards and rooms where parties are held. After the meeting, Student Housing Servic-es decided it would be best to change its policy on the judicial process of loud noise and dorm parties. This included closing off parts of the Hale Wailani complex at night, including the basketball courts and barbeque pit next to Mānoa Stream. Changes made to the process of handling noise from the hours of 9 p.m. to 9 a.m. daily were explained in an e-mail sent out by hous-ing: “There will no lon-ger be verbal warnings for excessive noise. All excessive noise issues will be documented and re-ferred to the judicial process.” The e-mail continues by defi ning what excessive noise is: “‘Excessive’ noise is typically caused by par-ties, large numbers of intoxicated individuals, etc.” This does not include a TV that is a tad too loud or the sound of a blender running in someone’s kitchen. Residents are given two strikes before they’re kicked out of the apartments. These strikes are com-pounded onto any other charges made to their judicial account, like possession of alcohol in a “dry zone.”

While some may be upset by the stricter rules, I applaud the housing staf f for making these policy changes. It ’s about t ime someone has gotten serious about handling high noise levels. Too of ten have I been woken up by loud, drunk college kids outside my window at two or three in the morning. Maybe now they’ll think twice about choosing oneof those conveniently placed green tables on the walk-way through the apartments. This kind of judicial consequence spelled out by the

policy change, of course, requires that the Resident Advisor (RA), or whoever is dealing the points, be judgmental in the fi rst place. We can’t have soft-ies in command, walking away from a booming, disruptive party without giving any warnings, simply because they were seduced or swayed — pos-sibly by friends, possibly by Mr. or Ms. Charisma. Discretion is left almost entirely to the RAs, so they need to remain stern in this matter. Unfortunately for the R As, that might amount to one more glare from the frazzled college dor-mer. I don’t want to say “tough luck,” but it ’s un-fortunate that with re-sponsibilities, adverse effects come as well. So l isten to these words, ye Hale Wailani residents: the R As are just doing their job.

Don’t hate. Also, thank housing staff for not getting too

radical with the changes. One earlier proposal was to limit the number of people hanging around out-side past 9 p.m. in the courtyards to two people. No more than a couple residents would have been al-lowed to commingle outside at the apartments, and Big Brother would have commanded our vessel. Fortunately, housing staff are allowing students to have some personal freedom around the dorms, and we can breathe a little easier knowing that someone’s trying to get on top of the giant balanc-ing act of college life.

It was a quiet night on of-fense for UH’s all-time leader in receiving yards, and Salas did found the end zone twice that night, which included a season-long 54 yard bomb in the first minute of the fourth quarter. He finished the game with 95 yards on five catches. Senior slot receiver Kealoha Pilares posted nine catches for 157 yards and a touchdown. Omar Clayton had a slow night as he threw three intercep-tions and was constantly under pressure by the Warrior defense. His two highlights were a 60-yard touchdown pass to Michael Johnson in the fi rst quarter and a 9-yard touchdown pass to Phillip Payne near the end of the game. UH junior quarterback Bryant Moniz accounted for six touch-downs on his way to another 300-yard passing game. He fi nished

the night 29-of-43 with 380 yards and four passing touchdowns, and rushed in for two more. Senior safety Mana Silva be-came UH’s all-time leader in in-terceptions (14) with six minutes in the third quarter.

GOLDEN HURRICANE ACCEPTS INVITE The Warrior football team will play Conference USA co-champion Tulsa on Dec. 24 in the Sheraton Hawai’i Bowl. “We’re very excited about the opportunity to go to the Sheraton Hawai’i Bowl and play a quality op-ponent in a 9-3 Hawai’i team,” Tul-sa head coach Todd Graham said. “Hawai’i is a very tough team. They have a tremendous program and some great players.” Tulsa is 9-3 on the season and was 6 -2 in conference play.

1212 SSPORTSWarriors close out

regular season with rout of UNLV

JOE FERRER

Senior Staff Reporter

In their fi nal regular season game as college athletes, the War-rior football team’s seniors went out with a bang. The University of Hawai‘i overpowered UNLV and cruised to a 59-21 victory Saturday night at Aloha Stadium. “Hawai‘i’s a good team. We have a lot of respect for the job they’ve done and the year they’ve had,” UNLV head coach Bobby Hauck said. “[Warrior head coach Greg McMackin has] done a mas-terful job of putting this team to-gether this year. It ’s fun to go out

and coach against him.” UH struck fi rst and didn’t look back. After trading touchdowns with UNLV in the fi rst quarter, the Warriors scored 45 unan-swered points before McMackin inserted his reserves for the bulk of the fourth. “It ’s a good win for them,” Hauck said. “They’re hard to beat here, and certainly we didn’t come close tonight.” The Warriors avenged a 34-33 loss last season to UNLV in Las Vegas. The Rebels scored in the fi nal seconds of the game – it was the fi rst loss in a six-game losing streak for the Warriors that year. “We owed them some payback after we lost by one up there last year, so there was defi nitely still motivation for us,” said senior slot receiver Greg Salas.
