Hawaiian Journal ‘Oiwi Finally Released
Aloha Kakou,
This was the first article I ever wrote in my career at UH Manoa’s KaLeo newspaper. I just felt it was really important to write about something positive for Hawaiians plus, I really admire the journal staff,& what they are doing for Hawaiian writers, artists, & students, especially the efforts of my Kumu Ku’ualoha Ho’omanawanui. The ‘Oiwi journal staff are still accepting submissions for 2009’s Volume #4, more info on that below. I encourage all of you to share… Continue

Tips on applying for scholarships
Aloha Kakou,
This was a sidebar in my article "How to prepare for financial aid fairs, Hapai Pu style". I just thought it would be easier to read if I devoted a whole blog to it. As a Hawaiian college student who has successfully applied for & received scholarships, grants, & tuitions waivers I felt it was important to share the tips I learned (and verified by Aunty Ku'umealoha) with other Hawaiian students.
It's ALWAYS important to know your source of information,… Continue

How to prepare for financial aid fairs, Hapai Pu style
Aloha Kakou,
I wrote this article so that other Hawaiian students would know where to get information on how to fund their college education. The UH Manoa Office of Student Equity, Excellence, and Diversity, Kua'ana Student Services, & especially Aunty Ku'umealoha Gomes helped me get tuition waivers, scholarships, & grants so my family & I wouldn't have to pay for much during my college career. It's really simple to do, especially since there is a whole fair,office, and… Continue

2005 UHM Graduate, Kaiwipuni "Punihei" Anthony aspires to help others
Aloha Kakou,
I know this article is a bit outdated, perhaps if I find the time I will do an updated one, but I'm just posting this article so other young Hawaiians will read it & perhaps, feel inspired & encouraged by Punihei's accomplishments & examples.
If you're thinking about studying 'Olelo Hawai'i after high school, especially at UH Manoa, Punihei is definetly one of the people you should see. At the very least she can give you help & advice on how to… Continue
