Is anyone flying home to NYC for the holidays and willing to take a little rescued kitten with them to our partner rescue?

We’ll provide the carrier and cover the airline fee to bring the kitten on the plane with you so there is no cost to you. The kitty will fly in the cabin under the seat in front of you and our partner will pick them up from the airport when you land!

My Hale Kahawai dorm room in 1988. We studied hard and partied hard. That dorm wasn’t nearly as fun and conducive to making friends as Gateway though.

I made a 3D cartoon with scenes set on the UH campus. Here the characters are entering their dorm. This scene was based upon a photo I took while I was a student in the 1990s. Does Gateway still look this way today?

Do we have a sub for football?

Or does no one actually care? I never see any posts about the team here and even with Angelos being let go Dec. 1 I see no post about the news, which is IMO, terrible.

Just a bummer that it's like the only place I can discuss the team is /r/CFB where no one really cares either.

got accepted to manoa, housing/working tips?

i got accepted into manoa a couple days ago, pretty excited about it. i'm already aware that living in hawaii is expensive. im also aware that the campus dorms are not the best here. how manageable is it to go to UH and work at the same time? that's the only way i could see myself staying afloat, even with roommates. if it helps, my intended major is SLS.

University emails

Surely I'm not the only one receiving an abundance of irrelevant emails from UH. Topics are typically regarding the board of regents and UH Presidential election (seemingly never ends).

Is there a way to opt out of these emails? I don't care who the UH President is or about really any news coming from announce@hawaii.

Should I transfer to UH at Manoa from LSU?

I'm currently a Sophomore at LSU and was wondering what the pros and cons of transferring to UH. Living in Hawaii has been part of my bucket list before settling down. My parents set me up to the point where money and having a job after college isn't something I need to really worry about. I'm from Florida and when i went to Hawaii i thought it was the coolest place I've ever been. The fact its in my cards intrigues me, even though I dont hate life at LSU, the nightlife is great and I have good friends, but I dont think a change would be bad especially when I'm fortunate enough to be able to go somewhere like that. I just want to make the most of my 20s.

So what is it like? Hows the nightlife(I turn 21 in July)? Do people surf and spend alot of time exploring the island, enjoying nature? Is it really cliquey, as someone who is white from the south, or is everyone from everywhere? Is it dangerous? Hows the academics as a business/marketing major? I know LSU acedemics are gonna be better but they aren't even that great.

Any insight helps and please share your own experiences to help me make a decision.

Edit: for Hale Wainani I’d be looking into the 2 bed 2 person unit.

Edit: This would be for Spring 2025 :)

  • Radiographs (if needed)
  • Fluoride tx (optional)

Looking for Housing Near UH Manoa - Private Bedroom, Move-in Around August 20th

Aloha! 🌺

My housing situation fell apart last second so I am not again looking for housing right at the deadline haha. I’m a student looking for housing near UH Manoa, ideally within a 15-25 minute walk to campus. I'm hoping to find a furnished, private bedroom with a budget of around $1000 per month. Month-to-month would be ideal since I’ll be here for the fall semester and plan to move out at the end of the year, but I’m open to a 6-month lease if necessary. I am pretty much open to anything.

If you have any leads or know of anything available, I’d love to hear from you! Please feel free to reach out via PM. Mahalo!

UH Hilo or UH Manoa for graduate programs?

I’m currently an undergrad expecting to earn my BA in Social Science and Psychology December 2025. I’m trying to figure out where I’m going for my graduate school. My ultimate goal is to earn a PhD in Psychology. Im Hawaiian born and raised on the Windward side of O’ahu considering either UH Manoa or distance learning at UH Hilo for my masters than transferring to UH Manoa for my doctorates. Has anyone else gone this route! Or attended either university with the same goals? How was it? Did you struggle? Do you think I can continue to work full time and still attain my goals? What was your experience?

HOLO Card for the bus system - Can’t find

So “The Bus” website says you can use the HOLO card to pay the bus fare, but the actual website does not show any physical locations where one can purchase the card. Every time you click “purchase locations” or something similar, it just loops back to the same page… Anyone know where you can physically purchase a HOLO card?? Mahalo in advance!

Final project

Hi everyone!

After my study abroad term in Hawaii I am finishing my degree back home in Munich, Germany. For my final project, I am doing some research on preferences and challenges American students face when considering studying abroad, in order to improve my home universities exchange/ incoming students’ program.

I would really appreciate if you could take around 10 minutes of your time to complete this survey! It’s completely anonymous and online and it would help me a lot with my project:

https://survey.cc.hm.edu/limesurvey/index.php/862711?lang=en

I just need a few more answers before I can start analyzing the results, so feel free to share the survey with fellow students!

Thank you so much! :)
