UH Hilo is celebrating Chinese New Year (Year of Snake) with two days of events! Yesterday and today, activities and performances are being held on the library lanai.
Astronomy student Angela Clairbourn and astronomy professor Marianne Takamiya attended the 2025 Submillimeter Array (SMA) Interferometry School Jan. 6-10 in Hilo, finishing up with a trip to Maunakea.
Informational and campus resource fairs, a goodie giveaway, a community resource event, and Sundae Social are scheduled throughout the week.
The event honored the accomplishments of 220 students who completed their graduation requirements during the summer and fall of 2024. Of these, 114 graduates — mostly from the fall semester — took part in the commencement ceremony.
Through this semester’s meet and greet, home-cooked meals, sightseeing trips, shopping and other activities on Hawaiʻi Island, international students feel welcomed by local host families.
The students visited Gilbert Kahele Recreation Area (fun!), Waikoloa Plaza (food and shopping), Hapuna Beach Park (more fun!), and Puʻukoholā Heiau and Visitor Center (to learn some Hawaiʻi Island history).
Participants in the workshop found that, although the basic strokes look easy, it is rather difficult to control the brush, the amount of ink and the absorbency of the paper.
ʻO ʻIkuwā i pohā kōʻeleʻele, ʻikuwā ke kai, ʻikuwā ka hekili, ʻikuwā ka manu. ʻIkuwā is the month when dark storms arise, sea roars, thunder roars, birds roar.
