An important , part of the training was learning to use computerized com-puterized telecommunications. The teachers are linked to each other through an electronic bulletin bul-letin board for educators called Big Sky Telegraph. The BST system sys-tem contains literally hundreds of lesson plans for teachers and provides a forum for educators world-wide. This was the first opportunity op-portunity to use this technology for most of the teachers. Much of the communications during the project period will take place by computer. As the teachers get more comfortable with computers and modems, they will use them with their students.

Now she is winning University of Utah scholarships and accolades for her social research. The daughter of Ned and Sharon Aikau, 1142 West 1340 North, Orem, she is a senior majoringin women's studies with a minor in sociology. 'They had me pegged as not going to be successful," says Aikau of her senior year at Mountain Moun-tain View. While working as a nanny for a year after high school, she realized she was college material and applied for admission admis-sion to the U. with a friend's encouragement. en-couragement. Within a few years, she earned a B-plus average, a $1,00 scholarship from the Women's Studies Program and a Nick and Helen Papanikolas scholarship for 1993-94. the $515 Papanikolas Papani-kolas awards are given to African American, Asian American, and Native American students who are academically successful, have high career aspirations, and have contributed to community service. ser-vice. Aikau's greatest academic achievement to date is "Polynesians, Identity and Resistance," Resis-tance," a paper based on research on Polynesian youth in Utah Valley Val-ley last spring. Daughter of a Hawaiian father and a Caucasian mother, she has fair skin and light brown hair. For a long time, she alienated herself from her father's heritage. Now, she says, she is finding a balance between her white culture and her Polynesian culture. For a paper that her professor called "a stunning piece of work," Aikau informally interviewed Polynesian students at school, luaus, a dance club, and the mall. She also spoke with white stu- dents and school authorities. 1 "The school administration may treat you bad, but you have to be nice to them regardless," one , student told Aikau in a poignant interview. By exploring how Polynesian youth are seen by their peers, teachers, bouncers, and officials. Aikau found evidence of stereotyping of Polynesian students as gang members or troublemakers. She observed Polynesian males more . valued for their accomplishments on the football field than in the classroom. "When I began researching Polynesian race relations, I found no information in the library," Pitbull destroyed A pit bull, labeled vicious, was shot and killed by animal control officers last Tuesday after attacking attack-ing another dog in the neighborhood neighbor-hood of 1000 W. 300 North in Orem. The pit bull's 10 puppies were taken to the Orem animal shelter. Orem officers were called to the neighborhood after a neighbor neigh-bor told the Orem police dispatcher dis-patcher that the pit bull was dragging her poodle away in its mouth. This is not the first time the pit bull has attacked other dogs, neighbors said. Responding officers followed the dog to a house where they said it became "extremely viscous" and attempted to attack them. Police were told by neighbors they believed the owners of the dog had moved to Salt Lake City several days ago and left the mother and puppies behind without food or water.

Meeting frequently with deans, faculty members , and students, she works to implement a requirement that all undergraduates under-graduates take at least one class dealing with issues such as race, class, gender, ethnicity, or sexual orientation. Inspired to undertake research re-search by Dr. Jennifer L. Pierce, assistant professor of sociology, who she calls "a cornerstone of my academic career," Aikau says, "Jennifer is definitely mv mentor. She's dedicated to students and making sure we learn ways of applying ap-plying information Right off, she started talking to me about graduate school. When reading papers, she's very critical in order to make you better. Her door is always open." After graduating in June 1994, Aikau plans to enter a sociology doctoral program that emphasizes issues of race, class and gender. For a dissertation, she envisions a crosscultural analysis of Polynesian communities com-munities in Hawaii, Southern California, and Utah Valley. Pierce, in turn, expects Aikau to achieve her goals. "Hoku is an .excellent student, an important contributor to diversity issues on the University of Utah Campus and an individual of great integrity," in-tegrity," Pierce says. "She should be in graduate school already. For me, she's the kind of student who makes teaching worthwhile." AQK OF tr MAKTY M |
