COURTNEY TEAGUENEWS EDITOR

Smile wide, jaw jutted out, eyes squinted, face red – that’s the play-ful look that Sierra Burke imagines on her friend, the forever 24-year-old Tommy Bennett, as he gazes down upon the world.

Around 2 a.m. on Aug. 16 at the University of Hawai‘ i at Mānoa campus, Bennett fell 13 stories from a window ledge outside a Hale Wainani dorm room while attempt-ing to coax his 19-year-old friend, contemplating suicide, into the safety of UH Mānoa sophomore Ted Guillory’s bedroom.

“He proved to me that night that he cared about other people more than he even cared about himself,” said Guillory, a witness to the incident and one of Bennett’s best friends, in a phone interview. “He is a hero.”

The pair was presumed to come inside soon when the glass win-dow panel they had been holding for support shattered, causing them to plummet to the ground below. At that time, Bennett and his friend were still responsive, yelling and moaning, but “very badly injured.”

The incident occurred in the midst of a party at his apartment, Guillory said.

While making plans with some of Bennett’s close friends to visit their wounded friend in the hospital, Guillory said an offi cer overheard the group and informed them Ben-

nett had passed away at 3:15 a.m. At that time, Bennett’s friend was

undergoing surgery in critical con-dition. Reymus Nakaki, a friend of Bennett who introduced him and the other man, said the 19-year old is recovering well, though he is cur-rently listed as being in critical but stable condition.

“I still want him to push to do his best. I know that’s what Tommy would have wanted,” Nakaki said in a phone interview.

The young man has sustained several injuries, including two bro-ken legs, one broken arm, a col-lapsed lung, a partially broken back and internal bleeding.

“I know Tommy had struggled with pretty bad depression at some points and I think he knows what it’s like to want to take the easy way out,” Burke, a UH Mānoa junior, said in a phone interview. “I don’t know if he saw himself in that kid or something ... maybe he wanted to tell that kid that things do get bet-ter, and that he was trying to fi nd a permanent solution for a tempo-rary problem.”

Bennett’s mother, Lesley Heard, said in a message that it was not a reckless act, but a calculated one.

“The word ‘hero’ is banded about too freely, but what my son did was heroic,” she said.

Bennett, born in the U.K. and raised in Philadelphia, leaves behind two parents, two younger sisters, a younger brother and a myriad of friends impacted by his legacy.

Sidney Hougland, a UH Mānoa student in her second year and one of Bennett’s friends, said in a phone interview that the inci-dent should serve as a reminder to others to keep an eye on friends, especially at a party where alcohol could be involved.

PUTTING OTHERS FIRSTDespite the tribulations Bennett

had encountered, friends said he

was always smiling. His mother felt that helping others was a priority for him because of the diffi culties he had dealt with personally.

“He did have a lot of problems in his life, and even still ... he just wanted to make sure everyone else was okay. He’s just one of the most selfl ess people I know,” Burke said.

Every time Nakaki encountered Bennett, his friend asked how he was doing – not as an empty greet-ing, but because he “genuinely cared” about the wellbeing of others.

Guillory cited addiction as one adversity in Bennett’s life, but said he been clean for about a year.

For the majority of his time in Hawai‘ i, Burke said Bennett didn’t

have a permanent residence and friends had provided him with places to live.

“Even though he himself didn’t have a roof over his head, he would still make sure that all of us were getting home safely,” Burke said.

The night of the fall, Guillory said Bennett insisted on remaining out-side to save his friend, despite pro-tests urging the pair to retreat inside.

Hougland said that Bennett had

“saved multiple lives” and knew personally some of those who had turned to Bennett for support. Houg-land herself had struggled with intense depression and the sec-ond day that she saw Bennett, broke down and confessed her troubles.

Despite the fact that Bennett had fought his own battles with depres-sion, Hougland said he did the best he could “to let other people have the kind of life that he was trying to make for himself.”

FROM THE UNITED KINGDOM TO THE PACIFIC OCEAN

A British citizen, his mother said Bennett, whose parents had divorced, was raised alongside his

siblings in the Philadelphia suburb of Exton, Pennsylvania for 14 years. He then lived with friends and his father for a while up until 2011, when his mother and siblings moved back to England. Bennett decided he did not want to return, then followed in the footsteps of some friends and moved to Hawai’i at 21 years old.

While Bennett still missed his hometown and the relationships he had built around Philadelphia, Hougland said he found Hawai‘ i to be a more mellow, refreshing change of pace.

“Wherever he went, he madefriends with his cheeky grin, dis-tinctive red hair and piercing blue eyes and his caring personality. He was full of life,” his mother said.

Though Bennett never attended college, Burke described her friend as eloquent and articulate.

“He was the prime example of that saying ‘don’t judge a book byits cover’,” Burke said. “He comes over in sagging pants, the back-wards hat — he’s tattooed and everything and smoking a cigarette — then he starts talking and using these big words.”

Bennett had picked up a landscap-ing and hardscaping job that he loved and “suited his hyper and energetic personality,” Heard said. With money saved up from his work, he intended to fl y his mother out to Hawai‘i as a surprise Christmas present.

Since moving to Hawai‘ i, he hadnot seen his family.

“He really, really wanted to be successful – to impress his dad,make his mom proud, his younger siblings. That was his number onething that he always told me, thathe just wants to make peopleproud,” Burke said.

She said that for the fi rst time in fi ve years, Bennett had reconnected with his father and patched up their issues, which had meant a lot to him.

One friend present at the partysaid that Bennett was perhaps thehappiest he had ever seen him – “which was saying a lot,” Burke said.

Bennett’s friends and mother also said they hoped the man whohad fallen by his side would takeadvantage of his gift of life, as Ben-nett would have wanted.

“I hope that young man will put his second chance at life to good use and in time, pay forward thecaring and kindness that my Tommy gave to him so my son will not have died in vain,” Heard said.

A week prior to the incident, Nakaki asked Bennett what he thought death was going to be like.

“He said, ‘I don’t really care. All I want to do is leave an impression on this earth … I’m going to showthis world that I’m a good person.’ And then, he did that,” Nakaki said. “He accomplished exactly what hetold me that he was going to do.”

SOURCE: FACEBOOK 24-year-old Tommy Bennet loved Hawai‘ i for the weather, hiking and warmhearted nature of its residents, friends say.

He proved to me that night that he cared about other people more than he even cared about himself.

Let’s not say ‘aloha ‘oe’ to teachers Fix shortage with budget restructuring

AMBER KHANASSOCIATE OPINIONS EDITOR

Whether it’s posting hundreds of bad Yelp reviews to close Walter Palmer’s dentist practice and death threats to his social media accounts or using social media to discipline children or a coworker, Internet shaming is out of control.

People have been losing their jobs because of their actions, and we all make mistakes. However, if social media discovers your error, your minute phrases or actions may dictate the rest of your life.

#HASSHELANDEDYET On Dec. 20, 2013, Justine Sacco

tweeted when leaving for a trip, “Going to Africa. Hope I don’t get AIDS. Just kidding. I’m white!” The tweet caused her to lose her job. The tweet was distasteful, rac-ist and crude, but did she deserve the rape and death threats that went along with losing her job? The threats’ severity shows that as long as what you post online is ‘okay with the crowd,’ then go ahead.

In March 2015, Monica Lewinsky shared her experiences with online shaming through a TED Talk:

“Overnight I went from being a

completely private fi gure to a pub-licly humiliated one worldwide,” Lewinsky said. “I was branded as a tramp, tart, slut, whore, bimbo and of course ‘that woman.’ … I was seen by many but actually known by a few. … I lost my reputation and my dignity. I lost almost everything, and I almost lost my life.”

If someone says or does some-thing unjust, then it is okay to react and give your opinion. However, to completely sabotage his or her life based on one statement or action is cruel. People make mistakes; it is a part of being human. We are faced with consequences for our actions and punished accordingly. When the social media crowd takes

actions into its own hands, where is the empathy?

Walter Palmer will be judged according to the law, while Justine Sacco is rebuilding her life. Social shaming created ways for the Inter-net mob to serve justice to them in

ways the law couldn’t. They now live in fear, anxiety and embarrassment.

Social shaming is a refl ection of a lost sense of humanity. Free-dom of speech allows us to post, comment and react to Palmer and Sacco’s actions. But within that freedom, we use death and rape threats to mentally imprison the offenders.

The Internet’s anonymity allows people to feel comfortable posing threats and to become desensitized to written and verbal torture. Tear-ing apart a person through social media is a form of entertainment. As long as everyone is in agreement

who the ‘bad’ person is, harassment continues without repercussions.

STICKS AND STONES Repercussions of shaming can

be tremendous. On May 29, 13-year-old Izabel Laxamana committed sui-cide after her father fi lmed her hair being cut off as a form of punish-ment, and she shared the video with peers at school. Although the father never intended for her to share the video, its effects contrib-uted to her suicide.

For many years, anti-bullying campaigns have increased. A State Bullying Laws and Policies Report released in 2011 showed that from 1999 to 2010, more than 120 bills have been enacted by state legisla-tures across the country to amend statues on bullying and related behaviors in schools. In an effort to stop bullying in schools and in the workplace, President Barack

Obama, the fi rst lady and celebri-ties like Ellen Degeneres becameinvolved with the efforts.

THE GOLDEN RULEWhy stop in schools and the

workplace? Shaming is a form ofbullying that needs to end every-where, including on the Internet.Where do we draw the line and gaina sense of social responsibility andcompassion?

There are people who havefelt cornered to the point of tak-ing their lives, and we should takeall preventative measures to savethem. We shouldn’t post humili-ating comments on social media.Rather than condemning or threat-ening the offender, we should cre-ate dialogue open to all points ofview. We should say to others whatwe would say to ourselves.

Social media shaming needs to stop

CARLY YASHIKI STAFF WRITER

In 2014, Hawai‘ i was ranked the fi fth worst place to become an edu-cator in the United States. Teacher shortages have been an ongo-ing problem for over 20 years in Hawai‘ i. It has become the norm to question any aspiring educator, “That’s great, but why?”

“Low wages make it challeng-ing to recruit and retain excellent teachers, particularly in Hawai‘ i when the cost of living is so high,” said Leah Muccio, assistant profes-sor at the University of Hawai‘ i at Mānoa’s College of Education (COE). “We need to compensate teachers fairly to allow them to have the professional autonomy they need to teach and stay in the classroom.”

Shortages occurs because of low salaries, around $48,865 on aver-

age, along with our state’s high cost of living. Without proper fund-ing, Hawai‘ i will continue to lose teachers. Without the opportuni-ties to take certain courses, stu-dents are ultimately the ones who suffer the most. In order to com-pensate for Hawai‘i’s costs, the gov-ernment should make fi nancial cuts elsewhere and prioritize teacher salaries.

DIFFICULT FOR EVERYONEAccording to Civil Beat, for the

upcoming 2015-2016 school year, the state Department of Education hired 700 teachers, out of whom 231 were emergency hires. However, those numbers still do not suffi ce.

With the proper number of teachers, students will have more opportunities to take needed courses with a focused learning approach. A STAR research study

showed that when students are placed in a smaller learning envi-ronment, 76 percent graduate on time (as opposed to 64 percent) and 45 percent graduate with hon-ors (as opposed to 29 percent).

ALL ABOUT THE MONEY As of 2014, Hawai‘ i had an esti-

mated spending of $11.8 billion. In 2013, it was concluded that 15.5 percent of spending goes towards K-12 education, 10.9 percent goes towards higher education, 14.4 per-cent goes towards Medicaid, 9.9 percent goes towards transpor-tation, 46.5 percent goes towards other spending and the remaining goes towards public assistance and corrections. However, Hawai‘ i also has a debt of $46.1 billion, which is why it may be diffi cult to fairly dis-tribute its money.

Along with making budget cuts,

Associate Professor and Director of ITE Secondary Education Tara O’Neill said secondary education is trying to help by “building part-nerships with science programs in the college of Arts and Science and Second Language studies in that build pathways to teacher license.”

Building a bridge among UH Mānoa’s science programs within the College of Arts and Sciences can assist aspiring teachers to get-ting their teaching licenses.

OTHER ALTERNATIVES“In order to attract and retain

teachers in the hard-to-fi ll rural areas such as Lāna‘ i and Wai‘anae, we should look to programs that recruit prospective teachers from the local community,” said Steph-anie Buelow, assistant professor at UH Mānoa’s COE.

She discussed keeping a close

eye on the Teaching Academy atWai‘anae High School, as it acts as amodel for recruiting local teachers.

“They’re learning how to do les-son plans. They’re learning to pres-ent. They’re learning how to createrelationships to the other studentsand other personnel in the school,”Teaching Academy teacher LeannManuel told Hawai‘ i News Now.

By starting their own academy,they focus more on “growing” theirstaff in hopes of creating a new com-munity of local teachers. Currently,there are 30 students enrolled.

Along with making budget cuts,further measures need to be takenif we are going to fi x our state’steacher shortage. Our teachersneed to be paid with the salariesthey deserve. Recruitment andtraining local teachers might helpHawai‘ i additionally.

Enough is enough

As long as everyone is in agreement who the ‘bad’ person is, harassment continues without repercusions.

GREETINGS FELLOW STUDENTS,

Few of us, myself included, have come to terms with the fact that sum-mer is over. Many days were spent on the beach, eating food, watching Net-fl ix and pretending that college isn’t real, and those days will be missed. I think we should all inhale a deep breath, take a moment of silence for our departed season and then proceed to tackle the new school year with as much optimism and courage as we can muster. I know we can do it, and with those cheerful thoughts and summer behind us, I would like to say – Wel-come Back!

Welcome back to long lectures and stacks of homework. Welcome back to your friends, 1 a.m. runs to 7-Eleven and sleeping in too late on Sunday mornings. Welcome back to Monday morning hangovers just before that midterm you forgot about (or didn’t). Welcome back to campus politics, tui-tion going places you may not want it to go and our controversial athletics department. Welcome back to cafe-teria food and dorm life, to more caf-feine than any human should consume and welcome back to all the various clubs and organizations you are a part of. Welcome back to all the ups and downs of college livin’, and, last but certainly not least – welcome back to your wonderful campus newspaper!

In order to make you feel even more welcome upon your return to cam-pus (or perhaps your fi rst year here), the lovely Ka Leo staff have written a number of articles, accessible both

within this issue and online, to help get you back in the academic zone. P. 14 will give you tips and tricks for stay-ing organized as you dive into the year, and p. 18 will give you some sugges-tions for getting involved on campus. We have articles about fall concerts, movies and television shows to look forward to, as well as a few playlists to get you pumped for new classes. P. 22 will prove useful to those lucky souls applying to graduate school and p. 16 will help you shop for groceries with-out spending a fortune. These articles and more will hopefully make you feel increasingly welcome as we embark upon the fi rst days of the 2015-2016 academic year.

Finally, I would like to end this let-ter on a brief note about myself. You’ll be seeing my face and my letters from time to time within Ka Leo, as I am the Special Issues Editor. I coordinate these roughly monthly editions of the paper, alongside my fabulous associ-ate editor, Christina. However, outside of my Ka Leo life I am a psychology major studying romantic relationships. I like croissants, cute animals and hik-ing, and I am coming to terms with the notion that I am entering my senior year of college.

Now that I have introduced myself, I will once again extend to you a warm welcome upon your return to UH Mānoa’s campus, and I wish us all the very best of luck in this new school year!

Located in Kailua, a town outside of town, Kalama Beach is where many families go to relax and have fun. With waves that break far-ther back than the shore, many children can be seen riding them with or without body boards. Although often crowded – but not as crowded as the touristy Waikīkī – Kalama is a great place to catch the rays and get a tan. The sand is soft and plentiful, extending back to houses that surround the large beach.

Nestled outside the Ko'olau mountains, Kahana Bay is one of the prettiest beaches on the island. With views of the blue sea and lush, green mountains in the background and a somewhat secluded location, this beach is perfect for when you want to escape from town and relax. The waters — although murky most of the time — are mainly calm and shallow. The sand is also fi ne and soft – perfect for laying a towel down and taking a much-needed nap.

Hanauma Bay is the place to go if you want to see fi sh and lots of them. The bay has a large, shal-low reef, making it easy to spot fi sh swimming by. As one of the most popular snorkeling destinations on the island, it’s also quite crowded. According to its website, the state park sees around 3,000 visi-tors a day, so you’ll want to go early. The park also charges an entry fee and is open from 6 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. each day except Tuesday.

BEST BEACHESBEST BEACHESThe best places for swimming, tanning and more

Always popular with the tourists, Waikīkī Beach is great for swimming, surfing and tan-ning. The waters are calm and shallow for hundreds of feet out, making it a good place to swim no matter how experienced you are. Many people seem to have the same idea, so watch out when others are swimming or surf-ing nearby.

When you’re living on a tropical island, going to the beach should be at the top of your to-do list, especially if you’re new to Hawai'i. From the crowded shores of Waikīkī to the pounding waves of Sunset Beach on the North Shore, O'ahu has many beaches to offer whether you’re into surfi ng or relaxing on the sand. Below are some of the best beaches for various activities that you can do at the beach.

Honolulu’s art scene is budding as more and more people are fi nding a new appreciation for fi ne arts and the associated lifestyle. If you are look-ing for places to fi nd art on campus and around Honolulu, there are a few places to check out such as the Art Building located on campus and sev-eral different art museums in town. Galleries in these locations are periodi-cally installed and there will always be something new and unique to visit .

IRENE FANGSTAFF WRITER

Note-taking is vitally import-ant to success in any class you take, and students are often torn between taking notes by hand or on their laptops.

Many studies show that tak-ing notes by laptop is not nearly as conducive to learning course material than taking handwrit-ten notes. An article in Scientific American argues for students to leave their laptops behind and take out the ancient pen and paper. The article is based on research published by Princeton

and UCLA scholars, Pam Mueller and Daniel Oppenheimer.

Because writing takes up far more time and energy than typ-ing, students are forced to process the information and write down a summary of what they understood from the lecture. Laptops, on the other hand, enable students to cre-ate rote transcriptions of what they hear without thinking. Taking notes by hand requires more attentiveness from the student, and when a stu-dent is paying attention, he or she tends to learn more and learn better.

“Their studies included hun-dreds of students from Princeton and UCLA, and the lecture top-

ics ranged from bats, bread, and algorithms to faith, respiration, and economics,” the article states. Overall, laptop note taking was associated with lower retention of course material.

There are benefi ts to lap-top note-taking. Copying mate-rial verbatim can sometimes be an advantage. In lecture-heavy, fact-driven courses, writing down everything the teacher says can be a key determinant of success. This is particularly true in courses such as Hawaiian or English, as look-ing up information later on can be diffi cult or fruitless. For example, it’s hard to Google the nuances

of early Hawaiian spirituality and having the ability to jot down everything the teacher says will make your life much easier when studying. In English, likewise, all the rules of grammar must be writ-ten down strictly, and not causally interpreted. During lectures, one may not always have time to take thorough handwritten notes and could miss out on helpful details, such as example sentences. Fur-thermore, having access to a lap-top in technology-based classes like computer science is often use-ful, if not necessary.

No matter what class you’re in, taking notes by hand seems to

be the better route to success in digesting material. While laptops may trump in convenience, effi -ciency, and are altogether easier to note-take with, it’s shown that people who take notes by hand retain more information. However, that doesn’t mean that laptops should always be left at home – many courses in this technology fi lled world will require more than just a pen and paper. However, if your main goal is retaining infor-mation, and a laptop isn’t a neces-sity, taking notes by hand may be your best bet.

Being self-directed with assignments is important, especially since professors will not always remind you of deadlines nor extend them. Instead, many professors use a syllabus to state the assignments and their deadlines.

Make an assignment schedule to ensure that you never miss a deadline. This is different from writing in a planner in that you can organize every assign-ment from every class by date into one tidy list. You can keep this list on your desk, binder or phone to consistently remind you of your deadlines.

Use a spreadsheet program like Microsoft Excel to create a three-columned spreadsheet: one for due date, one for the class and one for the assignment. You can update this as you learn about new assign-ments and deadlines.

Often times, getting organized is as simple as planning out important dates and tasks. It helps with laying out plans weeks and even months in advance. This allows you to gauge where you are — and what you should have accomplished — at any point in the semester.

Color coding different events can organize your thoughts and plans. You want your planner to be stress-free and practical; wasting time reading notes is confus-ing and a hassle. It may even make the whole process fun.

Buying a planner is one thing, but actually using it is another. Incentivize yourself by buying the most expen-sive planner you can afford. Realizing the money invested in the planner can motivate you to actually use it.

It may sound a little dramatic, but having a binder for each class is the absolute truest way to stay organized. Dividing your paperwork and assignments into binders can keep them from turning into one mess of a pile all over your desk. You can then further organize your work with color coded folders within each binder. This can also keep your work from being too daunting, as every-thing will be neat and organized so you know exactly where to start. You can now calmly go to class without needing to rummage through a pile of papers.

All of us have experienced that moment in the beginning of the semester when we pledge that this semester is going to be different – this semester we are going to stay organized, we are not going to procrastinate and we are fi nally going to get our lives together. However, every pledge turns out the same results: we get lazy and end up spiraling down a rabbit hole of disorganization and missed deadlines.

To ensure that this semester is a success, the following list compiles several tried and true tactics that will transform you into a regular Hermione Granger.

Savvy shopping at the supermarketKnowing how to shop will save your precious dollarsKnowing how to shop will save your precious dollars

MASON HIGASTAFF WRITER

Students dorming for the fi rst time must face this hur-dle: preparing dinner on your own. Dialing up your favorite fast food joint too often will put you on the fast track to the “freshman 15,” but trips to the grocery store can turn into wal-let-draining nightmares for the inexperienced. Instead of learn-ing from mistakes, you can keep both yourself and your wallet in shape with these shopping suggestions.

Make a shopping list and stick to it Shoppers of all ages fall victim to the tantalizing lure of the wide assortment of temptations in the supermarket and rack up a large total at the register. Some get so caught up in the distractions that they end up forgetting to buy what they came for in the fi rst place. A list will keep your eyes focused on what you need while sparing your savings.

Consider buying generic Aside from the label that covers up the product, there are not that many differences between a generic and a brand-name product. One of the few differences is the price, where generic brands come out on top as being more economical. Stores will be more likely to offer sales and discounts on their own generic products, helping you save even more.

Read the Sunday advertisementsRunning into sale prices can make your day when you see them, but Sunday crowds will already have purchased many of the discounted items. Looking at the advertisements gives you a heads up so you can plan out your shopping run with the right products in mind and the right coupons in hand.

Sign up for and use a store discount cardThese free cards will allow you to gain additional discounts and benefi ts. Some advertised sales also require that you use one of these cards, which will prevent you from being disappointed at the register with the regular price.

Go during the non-peak hours During the regular hours when everyone tends to shop, the lines will be long and your customer service will be strained thin by the masses. Planning a shopping trip during the late evening can elim-inate any waiting time.

Bring your own bags Now that the plastic bag ban has fallen over O‘ahu, bringing your own reusable bag has become more than just an eco-friendly ges-ture. The paper and biodegradable bags that stores now hand out can be cumbersome, which can make for an awkward walk with your groceries in hand. Some stores will also charge extra for their bags, which adds onto your bill. Perhaps the ‘āina is trying to drop you a hint.

With a new school year comes new opportunities, and many students revel at the chance to reinvent themselves after the summer is over. Mānoa offers many ways for students to get involved on and around campus.

From professional clubs for accounting, business and fi nance to more casual clubs for poetry, theater and anime, there is a Registered Independent Organization (RIO) for everyone. By joining a club with people of like minds, you’ll learn things about your interests that you might not have discovered otherwise.

Many clubs offer the opportunity for social events. Get-ting to know other students, particularly ones with experi-ence in a variety of areas, can give you insight on professors and tips on how to maximize your university experience.

Networking is another benefi t of joining an RIO. With ties to industry leaders, being in a club can sometimes make the difference in an interview. Though there are no guarantees for better job opportunities by being in any organization, knowing someone on the inside never hurts.

Every student at one point or another wonders if they made the right decision and will be able to enjoy work-ing in their fi eld of study. But by being around people who share the same passions and interests as you, you can draw inspiration from them to help stay on track and work toward your goals.

Some say that giving is better than receiving, and giv-ing your time to those who need it can be a benefi cial experience for everyone involved. Furthermore, volun-teering is a great way to meet people who are commit-ted to making a difference.

There are always opportunities to volunteer on and off campus. From beach cleanups to homeless shel-ters, the aloha spirit is alive and well in paradise. Many non-profi t organizations are dependent upon volun-teer work in order to operate. Volunteering at homeless shelters in Hawai‘ i can enlighten students about the poverty and housing problems in the islands. By work-ing in the community, volunteers can see aspects of these issues that they may not have been aware of, and they are able to help those in need at the same time.

Pollution in our oceans is not a new issue, but liv-ing in Hawai‘ i can bring the issue into perspective. See-ing the places you want to enjoy covered in litter and waste can be a disheartening experience. Volunteer work plays a major role in keeping our beaches clean.

A complaint among some locals is that there is little to do in Hawai‘i. What O‘ahu lacks in amusement parks or motor raceways, it makes up with unique island experiences.

Student Recreation Services (SRS) organizes hiking for students, faculty, staff and their guests. SRS also pro-vides transportation to and from events, which relieves the burden of having to fi nd parking.

With 43 sanctioned trails and numerous other unof-fi cial hikes, O‘ahu is a great place to experience the outdoors. You can drive and park at most trailheads, and once you start, you begin to appreciate what the

island has to offer with its natural beauty.Along with hikes, SRS also sponsors other events like

surfi ng, kayaking, sailing and scuba diving. Going to these events gives you the opportunity to

meet people who enjoy an active lifestyle. Although everyone likes to go to the beach or on a hike every so often, it might be hard to fi nd someone who is as pas-sionate about these activities as you are. By participating in an SRS event, you can increase your chances of meet-ing people who share your same love of the outdoors.

VOLUNTEERING

ATHLETICS

THE GREAT OUTDOORS

S TAY I N G AC T I V E HENDRICKS HICKSSTAFF WRITER

All University of Hawai‘ i students are given an athletics pass that allows them access to any regular season home game with a valid ID. This allows students the opportunity to show their school spirit and personal pride at sporting events.

A school sponsored committee, the Mānoa Maniacs, has prize give-aways and helps rally students at games. The committee was created to plan, implement and evaluate programming to enhance the stu-dent experience at athletic events.

With football season about to begin, students should be aware of the shuttle that is offered from the Mānoa campus to Aloha Stadium. This is convenient for anyone without a personal mode of transportation.

At events, students have an assigned seating area which enhances the school spirit experience. Many games are on cam-pus, basketball at the Stan Sheriff Center, or baseball at the Les Murakami Stadium. With the convenience of the venues, it’s a must to stop by a game once in a while.

Whether you’re there to cheer on our Warriors or just to hang out with friends and enjoy a good time, you’re bound to have fun and meet great people at any of the sporting events at Mānoa.

I decided to take a trip out to Anza Borrego a few hours outside of San Diego the other day. I had only heard great things and went out there with a few friends to create some images and enjoy Mother Nature’s beauty. I usually dislike the desert but this particular area was spectacular. We headed out there in the afternoon after spending the day in San Diego around UCSD with my little brother, eat-ing huge burritos and bodysurfi ng in heavy kelp. We arrived around sunset and slept out in the open under the stars and it was spec-tacular. Luckily no rattlesnakes or scorpions cuddled up with us for the night. The next day we explored a slot canyon and discovered these odd metal fi gures sporadically placed throughout the wide-open space.

Three reasons why community college courses are worth it

Let’s face it, college is expensive. Any penny a student can save can go to something worthwhile (e.g., Netfl ix subscriptions and food). You don’t have to pay an arm and a leg for community college courses and in Hawai‘ i, those credits will transfer to Mānoa because every community college is under the University of Hawai‘ i branch. Classes such as Math 100 and English 100, which are diffi cult to register for at Mānoa due to the number of other students applying for a spot in the classroom, have mul-tiple courses offered at community colleges. Have a full schedule? Reme-dial classes (including language classes) can be taken online, which will transfer to your four-year university.

Do you ever feel lost in those big lecture halls with 300 other students? It’s diffi cult to grasp a certain subject when there isn’t an interpersonal relationship with your instructor or with other classmates like there may have been in high school. Luck-ily, community college classrooms are similar to high school setups, particularly in size. With the average class ranging from 25-35 students, community colleges allow you to develop closer relationships with others and give you the opportunity to ask your instructor questions – without feeling as embarrassed as you would have in front of 300 other students.

Regardless of what your friends might say about community college, the work-load is often much easier than a four-year university. It’s not that the content is inferior, but students are given less strict deadlines for completion of the work and the teachers can be more sympatheticwhen accepting late work or excused absences than professors at UH Mānoa.

DAVID MCCRACKEN SPORTS EDITOR

When the time for registering for classes comes at the end of each semester, it is stressful for many students. Will I get all of my classes? What happens if I don’t? If by chance you don’t get your course, don’t fret. Taking a course from a community college is an alternative option that can keep you from waiting another semes-ter for that class to come around again.

Roughly 500,000 students start graduate school each year. If you are planning on being one of them, you had better be pre-pared for the application process. Here are a few tips to help you get through the complex graduate school application process.

LEARN AS YOU GO

There is going to be a learning curve. I would recommend getting all of your materials together and going as far in the application pro-cess as you can for each school until just before you submit. After-ward, go back over all of your appli-cations. You will likely fi nd that your last applications are better than your fi rst, since you have learned along the way. Then revise.

START EARLY

You probably need more time than you think, so start early. That goes double for anyone who has transferred during undergrad. It takes weeks to gather the required materials, and each school will have different response times. Give yourself enough time so you don’t have to rush and possibly forget important items.

DON’T FORGET ABOUT YOUR GRE

GRE stands for Graduate Record Examination. This test is like the ACT or SAT of graduate schools. You have to register and take the test before you apply to most graduate schools, although some schools don’t put much emphasis on it (and some don’t even want it). So fi nd out if your schools require them and get signed up for the exam.

NOTE HOW LONG THE PROGRAM TAKES

When deciding where to apply, make sure to note how long the pro-gram takes and whether it is a termi-nal degree or not. (Terminal means it’s the highest degree in that fi eld). Most master’s degrees are two to three years, but are usually not ter-minal (with some exceptions), then tack on another two if you are plan-ning to get a Ph.D. (which is almost always a terminal degree).

BE WHO YOU ARE

Much like the undergraduate application process, the graduate application process is about fi nd-ing a school that fi ts you. Getting into a great school is awesome, but being selected by a school that will value the person you really are should be your fi rst priority. If you are going to pay more to continue your education, at least make it at a school where you can be you.

Sports to look forward to at UH this year

DAVID MCCRACKEN SPORTS EDITOR

It’s not always easy being a University of Hawai‘ i sports fan, but this year will be different, as every optimist once said. But more so than win-loss records of the UH football team or UH Athletics’ budgetary issues, the 2015-2016 year will be a year you want to keep your eye on.

Last season was a whirlwind for the Rainbow Warrior basketball team. From losing its star player Isaac Fotu to losing its head coach in Gib Arnold on top of all the alle-gations facing the program, the Warriors were still able to make the Big West Champi-onship fi nal under interim head coach Benjy Taylor.

This season, however, Taylor is gone, and in comes new head coach Eran Ganot. Wingman Negus Webster-Chan, who led UH in three point shooting percentage last season, left the program this past summer. A lot of changes have happened with this program over the past year, but the reality is that this is still a very young team with a lot of talent that can contend in the Big West again this season.

The Los Angeles Lakers are returning to Hawai‘ i to kick off their preseason against the Utah Jazz at the Stan Sheriff Center. The Lakers may not have any direct involvement with UH Athlet-ics, but it’s a very unique opportunity for UH and its student body to observe professional ath-letes and watch one of the most successful players in NBA history, Kobe Bryant, live in person.

The Lakers may be in rebuilding mode for a couple more seasons, but the roster is loaded with young and promising talent such as Jordan Clarkson, Julius Randle and D’Angelo Russell.

WHAT TO WATCH

The defending Big West Conference champions will be returning to the pool thisyear with the hopes of repeating last season’s success. The Rainbow Wahine lost three seniors from last year’s team, but retains sophomore keeper Ymane Hage and topscorer Caity Lopes da Silva who will be returning for her junior season.

The ‘Bows don’t start their season until next spring, but that doesn’t mean that there isn’t a lot to look forward to. After all, entrance to each water polo match is free and open to the public.

WATER POLO

Let’s keep things on the court, shall we? The Rainbow Wahine program experienced its most successful season in the program’s history, winning the Big West Conference regular season title while narrowly missing out on an invitation to the NCAA tourna-ment this past March. Head coach Laura Beeman has returned despite various rumors surrounding her departure to the University of Utah and should be able to lead her young squad back to the top of the Big West.

Although the program lost Shawna-Lei Kuehu and Ashleigh Karaitiana, the Wahine have plenty of fi repower left with Megan Huff and Connie Morris dominating the low-post.

You live in paradise, so why not share it with that special someone? Any beach will do, but for the best time, go to a secluded beach to avoid a crowd. Just on the other side of Diamond Head you’ll fi nd several walkways along Kala-nianaole Highway that offer fantastic spots to enjoy the sun. To make a big-ger impression, make it a picnic. You can always go the classic sandwich route, but mixing it up wouldn’t hurt, either. The water at these locations is shallow and perfect for wading.

Grab your favorite aloha shirt, a white linen top, sun dress or something that screams tourist without being tacky. Once you’re ready, hit the town for a late after-noon or evening in Waikīkī. While parts of town are sketchy, the city does offer some beautiful locations. Remember to bring some extra cash so you can take your date shopping, visit street vendors and eat at a restaurant that doesn’t serve cafeteria food. “Top of Waikīkī” is a unique place to chow down, as the restaurant is on the 18th fl oor. A reservation will be needed since it is popular, so make sure to call ahead of time. A meal for two can run you over $50, so start saving those paychecks. If it’s a Friday, fi nd a spot on the beach to view the fi reworks over the Hilton, which start at 7:45 p.m. A sky illuminated by bright colors is a romantic way to end the day.

It may not be the fanciest restau-rant, but it’s convenient. Whether it’s just a friend, a crush or a lover, “The Fat Greek” is the perfect spot to dine and relax. Since it’s B.Y.O.B., open a bottle of wine to loosen any nerves and make the conversation fl ow. The ambience is quite nice, with non-intimidating light-ing and plants surrounding the dining area. If you aren’t sold yet, the food is delicious and affordable, too.

Date SpotsDate SpotsScrambling to find a place for a first date? Don’t sweat it, we got your back

IKAIKA SHIVELEYWEB SPECIALIST

So you fi nally got the nerves to ask that special person out. Now comes the next hard part - where to go? The possibilities are practically endless, but here are a few suggestions that will ensure a fun time.

*Side note, these spots aren’t exclusively for dates. Friends like to have fun, too.

Scrambling to find a place for a first date? Don’t sweat it, we got your back

Sometimes you just want to remove the hassle of going out, so a night in is the perfect way to avoid the insanity of transportation, reservations and crowds. Start off by having each of you pick a favorite fi lm ahead of time; this shows you really care when you want to share something dear to your heart. A few hours before starting the movies, head to a grocery store to pick up ingredients for dinner. By making a homemade meal together, sparks may begin to fl y as you create something together.

While we may never know why the fountain is off or if it will ever return, we can always dream about reen-acting the “Friends” opening credits in it.

CATS In the past, campus cats would often overheat due

to their fur and would go for a dip in the fountain. See-ing the cats have so much fun during the day caused students to be distracted and jealous, so the univer-sity turned the fountain off.

HOT DAYSBetween classes, students may see the fountain

of water and mistake it for a tropical waterfall. Per-haps years ago, a few students wore their fl oaties to class, alarming professors, causing them to turn off the fountain. If true, this story could also serve as the origin for the norm of students frequently wearing swimsuits to class.

CAR WASHESMany people use the area in front of QLC as a

dropoff and pick-up zone. It’s also a primary Rain-bow Shuttle stop.

With a fountain containing running water, rinsing a car may be tempting. Students may have used so much water to clean their vehicles that UH Mānoa decided to turn the fountain off. The decision sped traffi c up, as people no longer had to wait in the car wash line.

Creating dessertsDesserts at Hale Aloha and Gateway Cafeterias are usually a rotation of

pudding, cookies, Jell-O, cake, pie or ice cream. If this selection bores you, try the spin-offs below by using the ingredients and equipment around you. The recipes are arranged in increasing levels of diffi culty. Calorie count is not provided, so proceed with caution.

Traditional affogato is made with espresso and gelato, but you can use coffee and ice cream instead. Scoop vanilla ice cream into a coffee mug, then pour coffee over the top. You can use haupia sorbet to change the fl avor.

The Earl of Sandwich in Great Britain reportedly created today’s lunch sta-ple, and you can make the dessert version. Toast two cookies in the rotating toaster oven. While they are still hot, spread the insides with peanut butter or honey from the toast section or chocolate or fruit sauce from the ice cream bar. Pile ice cream on one half and top with other cookie. Roll the edges in your desired ice cream toppings.

Make a miniature approxima-tion of a Choco Taco. Put a cookie in the panini press. After pressing it the fi rst time, rotate the cookie at a 90-degree angle and press it again, creating cross-hatch marks. Use a cookie with a softer texture, as a crunchy cookie will crum-ble. Bend the cookie into a taco shape, being careful not to break the cookie in half. Line the bot-tom of the cookie with hot fudge sauce, if desired. Carefully scoop ice cream into the cookie and coat it in your choice of toppings.

Occasionally, Gateway Cafe serves banana splits. If they aren’t on the menu, here’s how to make your own. Put three scoops of ice cream in a straight line down the mid-dle of a bowl. Traditional fl a-vors are chocolate, vanilla and strawberry; but use whatever you like. Slice a peeled banana lengthwise and put it on both sides of the ice cream. Top with chocolate sauce, caramel, fruit sauce, sprinkles and nuts.

Warm a cookie and crush it on a plate, creating a bottom crust. Spread the top with ice cream. Crush another cookie and coat the sides of the ice cream in the crumbs. Top with chocolate sauce and sprinkles. The fudge sauce will solidify against the cold ice cream, so if you want, make a fancy design on the top.

Get to know your professorsFrom the professors:

Conversations help develop professional relationships

How can students get to better know you?Before every class starts, while I am waiting for all the students to arrive, I like to chat with the

students already present in class. Sometimes it is about the previous lectures or the tests, some other times we discuss everyday life. Of course, when students come to visit me in my offi ce, there is more interaction and we usually also chat a bit about ourselves.

When students have an interest in your fi eld of study, how do you feel about working with them to pursue that interest?

I am happy to help my students in doing real research, but I am also very clear with them that they should focus on their fi rst priority — classes — and never forget that they are at UH to gradu-ate. I know it is more fun to work on research than to study, but it is not worth it if this negatively affects their studies. On the other hand, it is instead a very good practice if the projects help them become more focused on their studies while they are learning new and exciting things.

Some of the most powerful resources available to you are your professors. Intro-ducing yourself and putting a name to your face might be challenging, but a professional relationship can help you reach your goals. Instead of guessing what a good conversa-tion might be like, learn how to talk to your professors from your professors themselves.

How can students get to better know you?I think it’s wise for students to talk to their peers about who they’ve had for

teachers and kind of get the word about what they think of a professor. You can google their name and you can fi nd out what they’ve done professionally. And then, I encourage students to set times to go and meet with their instructors and their professors, especially if they’re stuck with something.

How can students work with you to build a stellar letter of recommendation?The way that [a request] usually comes to me is through an email. I appreciate

the fact that students have a pleasant greeting. Students often say, “I’m sure your schedule is so busy right now, however…” It’s nice to have that acknowledgement. I like that those follow with a little something about yourself and what you’re looking to do. I always appreciate a follow-up to let me know what came of it so there’s a sense of closure.

KARYL GARLANDDEPARTMENT OF ENGLISH

How can students get to better know you?Most teachers are happy to interact with

students who are intellectually engaged, and will give their time freely to them when asked to do so.

How can students who are interested in your fi eld turn their interest into a career?

Students who wish to learn about profes-sional opportunities within the area of exper-tise of their professor should just ask. Almost everyone in the professoriate enjoys helping the new generation with their professional plans. One [of] the greatest rewards of teach-ing is witnessing the success of one’s students.

DR. MARCUS A. TIUSDEPARTMENT OF CHEMISTRY

How can students get to better know you?I don’t think it’s something that students

should overthink. I like to think that I’m an approachable and friendly guy, and I’m not one for formalities. If they want to, students should feel free to introduce themselves after class or in offi ce hours.

What should students do if they need help?If a student needs help, all they need

to do is ask. It’s really that simple. When a student is unable to come at the regularly scheduled offi ce hours, I’m always happy to schedule an appointment with them at a different time. Questions through email are okay, too. The only thing I would add to that is to try to avoid showing up unannounced outside of regular offi ce hours. If you need to meet at a different time, ask fi rst to set up an appointment.

DEPARTMENT OF MATHEMATICSDR. ALLAN YASHINSKI How can students get to better know you?

As a student, try to have some conversations with the professor. It’s hard on the fi rst day, but hopefully you can approach them once you feel comfortable doing that.

How can students work with you to build a stellar letter of recommendation?

I ask them for a narrative about yourself and what your goals are so that I can address those if I don’t know you that well. I get students who I’ve known half a semester and they tell me to write a letter of recommendation. All I can say is that you’ve been a pretty good student in this class and the student has been doing well so far. I can’t write much more than that unless I know the student a little bit more.

If you plan on watching the new comedy “Mike and Dave Need Wed-ding Dates,” you’re sure to notice a wide range of cast and crewmem-bers, including a face that you might have seen walking around campus.

“Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates” began principal production on O‘ahu during early June. Writ-ers Andrew J. Cohen and Brendan O’Brien also collaborated on the scripts of Hollywood blockbusters like “Funny People” and “Neighbors,” the latter of which is set to have a sequel that also releases in 2016.

The main cast includes actors Zac Efron, Adam Devine, Aubrey Plaza and Anna Kendrick. Look-ing closer into the movie, how-ever, we’ll see another connection from this movie to the University of Hawai‘ i at Mānoa, and that connec-tion is fourth year journalism stu-dent Janelle Guerrero-Miguel.

Guerrero-Miguel explained that she started off auditioning for a role as an extra in the popular “Hawai‘ i 5-0” series. Although she was not casted to the show at the time, her application was passed on to the director and casting member of “Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates” which lead to her role in the new movie.

“The [casting director] got my information, called me and said, ‘You seem fi t for the part if you’re up for it,’ And I thought that it would be such a good experience,” Guerrero-Miguel said.

Although Guerrero-Miguel described the “Hawai‘ i 5-0” open casting call as a “huge” event, she later found out from fellow extras that the casting call for “Mike and Dave” was even larger.

“There’s thousands of people willing to go for this thing … I’m not sure how they picked the cast, all

they told me was that they show our pictures to the casting director or the producers and they kind of pick out who seems like the best fi t for the job,” Guerrero-Miguel said.

When she got to the set at around 5 p.m., Guerrero-Miguel was expecting a two or three-hour shift.

“We got there and they asked, ‘Who’s a fi rst timer?’ and a couple of people and I raised our hands up and they were just like, ‘Just so you know this is an all night thing.’,” Guerrero-Miguel said.

Guerrero-Miguel and the rest of the extras stayed on set until 6 a.m. the next morning. She said that she was close to passing out around 2 a.m., and that one of the stars got a little cranky, which was under-standable.

Although the shooting sched-ule was long, she announced her

excitement at getting to meet the stars of the movie.

“I was sitting at this one table and Zac Efron and Adam Devine were sit-ting on the table right next to me,” Guerrero-Miguel said. “I got a really good glimpse of them … they walked past our table and actually got so close I could smell them.”

Guerrero-Miguel laughed as she described her slight confusion at Zac Efron smelling like pencils, and Adam Devine smelling like a bowl of fruits, resembling certain Bath and Body Works fragrances.

“They’re really humble,” Guer-rero-Miguel said. “Especially Zac Efron, because he’s really nice. Whenever we’d get a scene done, he’d always be like, ‘Oh hey you

good job!’ or ‘Oh hey nice work!’ or ‘Hey you guys thank you for com-ing out tonight!’ Adam Devine was hilarious. Everything that came out of his mouth was hilarious. They hold themselves up very well. It’s not like they walk by us and think that they’re better than you, or that they’re a celebrity and you’re not. And Anna Kendrick, that’s when the whole star struck feeling came back for me. I would say that was my favorite part, getting to see them.”

Guerrero-Miguel encourages anyone who wants to pursue an opportunity like this to try for it, because the feeling of being there and getting to learn what it’s like behind the scenes was worth the long night of fi lming. The pay, she adds, also was worth the night. She explained how the pay system for extras had an hourly basis and

included overtime pay. The advice she would give, though,

is to simply be available to short notice plans. Some of the extras in the movie we’re informed that they would be shooting the day before, or the day of. She also explained the importance of keeping an open mind and staying positive.

Catch Guerrero-Miguel alongside the rest of the cast in “Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates,” which 20th Century Fox plans to release on July 8, 2016.

The [casting director] got my information, called me and said ‘You seem fi t for the part if you’re up for it.’

ANGUSINA CAMPBELLSTAFF WRITER

Eighteen-year-old Natasha Burns’ volleyball career began in eighth grade gym class as a fl uke.

“We had a [substitute] teacher in that day, and she was an assistant coach for the club Mountain Vol-leyball Club, MVC for short, so she invited me up to the practice,” said Burns, who is originally from Brit-ish Columbia but moved to Hamil-ton, Ontario. “I ended up liking it.”

At 6-foot-5-inches, Burns, a mid-dle blocker, stands a foot taller than the average American woman, about 5-foot-5-inches. As a toddler, doctors tested the incoming freshman for gigantism, a condition in which chil-dren grow abnormally large. However, the tests eventually proved negative – Burns was “just really tall.”

The Canada native described being pushed into lockers, having her hair pulled, being shoved to the ground and taking verbal assaults because of her height. Through the ordeal, she learned to have con-fi dence and said that her height helped shape her character.

“When I was younger I was a lot more shy, I kind of slouched a lot,” Burns said. “Through the years I just learned that you can’t change some things, so you have to do the best with what you have, and to just own what you got.”

University of Hawai‘ i women’s volleyball Head Coach Dave Shoji said Burns’ mental toughness and her ability to not be intimidated by the other players would help her in the long run. He said she was able to mix well with the team.

“Defi nitely coming from a long

ways off and especially a foreign country, it’s often diffi cult, but she seems to have adjusted really well,” Shoji said. “She’s a delightful, happy person.”

HAWAI‘IShoji said Burns may be the tall-

est player in women’s volleyball program history. He viewed volley-ball footage of Burns, but in accor-dance with NCAA regulations, he did not see her play in person until the team began practice on August 10. Shoji said Burns has some phys-icality that gives her an advantage over other middle blockers.

“She’s got some natural block-ing ability, which is the fi rst thing I noticed about her,” Shoji said. “She’s got a very decent vertical jump, which adds to her physicality.”

He said it was too soon to tell how

Burns would contribute this year but added that she would be a player they would count on in the future.

“I think she’s a mentally tough per-son,” Shoji said. “She hasn’t backed down; she’s not intimidated by the other players. She seems to be hold-ing her own. That’s another trait that will help her in the long run.”

Hawai‘ i wasn’t always Burns’ fi rst choice, as she initially committed to West Virginia University. How-ever, after a coaching change and a

two-month silence from the univer-sity, she was allowed to decommit.

“I talked to Hawai‘ i when I was in Grade 11, and at that point they didn’t have any open scholarships, but it just so happened that when I talked to Hawai‘ i in Grade 12 after I decommitted, that they had a scholarship open up,” Burns said. “Then it was kind of just the stars aligned, let everything fall in place, so I ended up committing here.”

Burns said that she can’t sign a letter of commitment with the Uni-versity of Hawai‘ i until one year after West Virginia University grants her release, explaining that it was a formality and would not affect her playing time.

VOLLEYBALL IN CANADABurns played for Mountain Vol-

leyball Club for three years before

meeting Defensa Volleyball Club Director Rob Fernley.

“He taught me basically every-thing I needed to know to be a successful volleyball player in the States,” Burns said. “[He] taught me a lot of techniques that would help me get my scholarship and made me a better player overall.”

Fernley helped Burns build confi -dence and competitiveness through attention to footwork and speed. He said that Natasha had had no training

or skillset but was quick to catch on. “She came from a program where

they were possibly more focused on winning than developing, and being someone who is so tall so early, there’s a lot of lack of coordination issues,” Fernley said. “To me, she wasn’t a slow athlete at all, but she just moved slow, and so it was con-vincing her that ‘Hey, you’re a whole lot faster than this, and you have to move at this speed all the time.’”

Burns played for Defensa’s 17-under division in eleventh grade. During her senior year, when the team lost too many players to continue, she played for the 18-under division at Halton Region Volleyball Club, or the Halton Hurricanes. The eight-girl team, ranked 20 out of 86, lost to the Calgary Dinos in the semifi nals and eventually took fourth place at the Volleyball Canada Championships, becoming Ontario’s top fi nishers.

“All of us kind of had injuries, and we were fi ghting through it, and we’re defi nitely an under-dog team. Most volleyball teams have 12 girls, nine girls, high num-bers,” Burns said. “That was prob-ably some of the most exciting games of my career right there. It’s a really amazing experience, seeing all those people around the court.”

WHAT’S NEXTBurns broke her hand on August

19 during a practice. She said that she would try to overcome her injury through training and staying positive.

“Lots of legs and core,” Burns said. “I have hand exercises for my fi ngers to keep my mobility, that I have to do every hour. Hardest part will be trying not to bang it or move it.”

I have a deep love for the ocean, and shooting surfers and waves is the best excuse I have to never get out of the water. I try to take photos that you can sit back, look at and feel like you’re in or feel what the surfer is feeling. My favorite kind of pho-tos are the ones that remind you of how good it feels to duck dive a wave and have all that energy pass your face, adrenaline pumping and all. My favorite type of photos involve playing with the sun and light through waves, lens fl ares, and getting facial expressions and emotions. I do this because I love being in the water, I love giving surfers snapshots in time, and it’s a never ending challenge for myself to get better and better. My ulti-mate goal would be to be able to travel the world and be able to shoot exotic breaks and beaches.
