Campus Security has released the 2010 Annual Crime Report, and according to the statistics, dorm residents appear to have reasons to celebrate, while students parking mo-peds on campus may not. Although liquor law violations in dormitories and other residen-tial facilities increased by 148 per-cent, burglaries decreased by 34 percent, and forcible sex offenses decreased by 80 percent from 2008 to 2009. Motor vehicle thefts on campus, however, increased by 966 percent. “As far as motor vehicle thefts, we have very, very few, until you add in mo-peds,” said one high-ranking Campus Security offi cial. 2009 was the fi rst year mo-peds were includ-ed in motor vehicle thefts.
CRIME REPORT HISTORY The Annual Crime Report is published every October in ac-cordance with the “Clery Act,” a federal law that requires colleges and universities to disclose infor-mation about crime on and around their campuses. The Clery Act is named for Jeanne Clery, a 19-year-old university freshman who was raped and murdered while asleep in her dorm room on April 5, 1986. Jeanne’s parents, along with other victims of crimes on campus, persuaded Congress to enact this law after learning that students had not been told about violent crimes on the university campus in the years preceding their daughter’s murder.
STATIST ICAL COMPARISONS BY YEAR The 2010 Annual Crime Re-port includes statistics, which are divided by type and location, for 2007, 2008 and 2009, detailed
guidelines of campus safety poli-cies and advice on preventing and reporting crime. With 2009 being the fi rst year mo-peds were included in the motor vehicle theft category, on-campus motor vehicle thefts rose from three in 2007 and 2008, to 32 in 2009. Motor vehicle thefts from campus housing rose from two in 2007 and one in 2008 to 18. “The actual number one thing that’s stolen on campus is bicycles … and mo-peds are the second to bicycles,” said one se-curity official. In-dormitory burglaries fell from 32 in 2008 to 21 in 2009 for a decrease of 34 percent, and saw a 22 percent decrease from the 27 reported in 2007. However, the to-tal number of on-campus burglar-ies, which includes the in-dormi-
tory reports, rose from 43 in 2007 and 47 in 2008 to 56 for increases of 30 percent and 19 percent, re-spectively. Forcible sex offenses on cam-pus, all of which occurred in dor-mitories, dropped from three in 2007 and fi ve in 2008, to one in 2009 for decreases of 67 percent and 80 percent, respectively. Aggravated assaults stayed the same for 2008 and 2009, with four reported in both years, but saw a decrease of 33 percent when compared to the six in 2007. “The more serious crimes are rare, such as robberies, assaults, but when it does come up, it ’s a big concern because of the per-sonal safety,” said Wayne Ogino, Chief of Campus Security. All liquor law and drug-relat-ed violations in 2009 occurred in
the dormitories. In-dormitory li-quor law violations rose from 291 in 2008 to 721 in 2009 for an in-crease of 148 percent. Although, compared to the 616 reported in 2007, liquor law violations saw only a 17 percent increase. Likewise, drug-related viola-tions rose from 54 in 2008 to 84 in 2009 for an increase of 56 percent. However, when compared to the 112 reported in 2007, 2009 saw a decrease of 25 percent. A security offi cial attributed these fl uctuations to the changing focus regarding violations of student housing conduct policies and which instances new student housing di-rectors may regard as warranting a referral for disciplinary action.
STUDENT PERSPECTIVES Christopher Pennington, a ju-
nior and resident of Gateway House, said that he has no concerns for his safety but told the story of how a few days prior on his way to dinner, a friend had commented on it being “only a matter of time” before an unlocked mo-ped at the bike rack would be stolen. When he returned less than 45 minutes later, he wit-nessed the owner of that mo-ped outside trying to make sense of an empty bike rack. “I’m aware of the fact that there are a lot of mo-ped thefts, and that it is a problem not only on campus, but elsewhere,” said Chelsea Yamase, a junior who commutes to campus on her mo-ped. “Yeah, I feel safe parking on campus, but I defi nitely lock it ev-erywhere I go,” she added. “I feel physically safe, but if I left the door open someone could swing right in and take just about anything they want,” said Harley Diven, a sophomore and resident of Hale Aloha Ilima. “People are going after what they can get and sell quickly,” said a security offi cial. He described how burglaries on upper campus often target items that workers tend to leave inside desks, such as cancelled checks, credit card information, spare keys and iden-tifi cation cards, and burglaries in dormitories tend to target items such as laptops, iPods and other portable devices. “One challenge that we face is that it ’s a large campus, over 300 acres. It ’s wide open, accessible to the public, so it ’s a very diffi-cult campus to secure ... I’m nev-er satisfied. I always want (Cam-pus Security) to do a better job, but it ’s a matter of using limited resources. The only way we’re go-ing to be effective … we’re going to need to partner with students and staff to make this campus more secure,” said Ogino.

Fall Footholds, held from Oct. 20 to Oct. 24, was a stu-dent-produced dance showcase that featured a wide array of cul-ture, dance, music and chore-ography. The featured dances, completely independent from one another, allowed each stu-dent choreographer to express their creative talent freely. The 2010 -2011 season, titled “Between Spaces,” was show-cased at the Earl Ernst Lab The-atre located on the upper level of Kennedy Theatre. The show began with a piece called “Igal Kamahatuan Den-da,” a classical work derived from the southern Philippines. The piece was a very detailed dance with one performer ac-companied by live, chime-like music, setting a peaceful and serene mood to start the show. The next piece, “Inter -st it ial Space,” featured MFA choreographer and per former

Jennifer Lin, along with f ive other dancers. The piece was broken into three segments, relaying the theme of the gaps
and breaks of l i fe between both indiv iduals and cultures. The third scene, titled “The Users,” was a premiere work
from BFA candidate Becky McGarvey. The dance was per-formed by four female dancers, decorated in colorful costume See Fall Footholds, next page
design that matched the energy and aura of the dance well. Following the intermission, the premier of “Ugat,” choreo-graphed by Cher Anabo, added culture from the southern Phil-ippines to the showcase. The dance attributed aspects of its movements to “Pangalay,” per-formed by two female dancers, moving with detail in vibrant costumes. The next piece contributed a different style to the produc-tion as choreographer and danc-er, Tyler Tuiasosopo, moved in sync with the music. Tuiasosopo moved in perfect rhythm with the song just as the title describes, “Like Water.” This individual piece brought out a lot of emotion in the audience. His dancing en-gaged the crowd in both the mu-sic and aura it created. Choreographed by MFA the-sis choreographer, Tiana Ching Maslanka, “GraceFall” was a two-part performance that unraveled a

unique and mysterious story. The fi rst segment, called “Discord,” featured six dancers that appeared to be divided in costume and move-ment. As the tension built, the
next segment “Descent” changed the pace of the performance and led to a climactic fi nish. The “De-scent” added two more dancers, making for a total of eight.
Daniel Ching contributed an emotional and dramatic individu-al piece called “Metamorphosis,” which demonstrated that lack of color and decoration can give a piece a raw, natural atmosphere. His performance enraptured the audience and made the perfor-mance a moving experience. The last scene, “Mi Papalote” meaning “my kite” in Spanish, featured two dancers, including the choreographer Gene Horita and his partner, Meghen McKin-ley. The couple has a jubilant dis-position - just as a person would feel when f lying a kite. The hap-piness of the performers and the dance brought light to the entire production and concluded the showcase very well. Seeing students work hard to put on a successful production is inspiring. The intricacy of the showcase and the incorporation of human emotion into dance sent a powerful message - the appre-ciation of performing arts and the work that goes into it.

T h i s knot was f o r m e d
last week W e d n e s d a y while I was reading Daniel
Hugo’s piece on not voting. While
Mr. Hugo’s criticisms of our political sys-tem are fully justifi ed, he would like you to believe that just because the system is bro-ken, there is no need to participate in it. He could not be more wrong. The only way to make a change in a dem-ocratic system is to vote and get your voice heard. Not voting is the same as not saying anything, and saying nothing is the same as silent compliance. Voting is using your voice in the most powerful manner. If you do not like who is running the country, throw them out. If you do not like the two major party candidates, vote for an independent party.
Mr. Hugo also fails to see the entire voting process. While it is true that one vote never changed the outcome of an elec-tion, voting is so much more than casting your ballot. Voting is talking to friends and family about the issues. Voting is viraling YouTube videos of a candidate doing something stupid. Voting is making jokes about a candidate that you do not like. Voting is making a movement. By simply sharing your opinion you can affect the opinions of others, thus making more votes for the candidate that you side with other than your single vote. A perfect example of not-voting-to-make-a-statement-gone-wrong is the state-hood election of 1959. At the time, many Native Hawaiians and sympathizers of the Hawaiian Kingdom decided that they would not vote on the statehood issue, and did not register to vote. Because their voices were unheard, the measure passed. Mr. Hugo notes this at the end of his article, saying that we should not vote so that his vote will count more. I do not want Mr. Hugo’s vote repre-senting my voice, and if you feel the same, I invite you to attend the “Get Out the Vote” rally on Oct. 26. The rally will be held on the Varney Circle side of Hawai‘i Hall from 11:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. There will be live music from Kamakana Osorio, free refreshments, an open mic, and a raffl e for those who pledge
to vote. There will be speakers throughout the rally, including grad students, ASUH representatives, and yours truly. The rally is being sponsored by GSO, UHPA, Kanu Hawaiʻi, and KTUH, who will be DJing the event. The rally is non-partisan and every-one is welcome to come and enjoy. And if you cannot come to the Oct. 26 rally, then please vote next week Tuesday. We do not have class that day for a reason. Also, if you want to free up your day off, you can vote early at Honolulu Hale, Kapo-lei Hale, or Windward Mall all week. Just go use your voice.

“The good thing this year is that they gave everybody Ga-torade bottles,” Jimenez stated. “(Our coaches) told us to drink as much water as (we) can,” said Jimenez, who drinks about two full bottles of water every day. Senior Ashley Aitken, who f inished in the top f ive in her f irst four meets, was named last week’s WAC Cross-Country Ath-lete of the Week – her second of the season. At the Santa Clara Bronco Invite on Oct. 16th, A itken placed f i f th. She f inished the 5K course with a personal-best t ime of 17:10 minutes, which gave her the top 5K time in the WAC this season. The Rainbow Wahine will travel to Moscow, Idaho on Sat-urday, October 30th for the WAC Championships. They finished 7th last season.

The Western Athletic Con-ference championship is this week and the Rainbow Wahine cross-country has prepared all season for this meet. The Rainbow Wahine prac-tice every morning from 6:30 a.m. to 8 a.m. on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Then, they have weight lif ting at 5 p.m. in the afternoon. “Practice is always going to be hard, it ’s not easy,” sopho-more Ashlee Jimenez said. “The week is either going to be long
runs or shorter but harder.” Jimenez said practice gets easier through out the season and the alternations between long and short weeks even out. “I can’t really complain, (practice) could be worse. I like it in the mornings,” Jimenez said. The team also keeps tabs on their diet. “Last year we had someone come in and talk to us about nu-trition, just to give us a heads up because we run every day,” Jimenez said. Although the team doesn’t have a specif ic diet implement-ed, the coaches make sure that their athletes are hydrated even when they aren’t practicing.
