COVER STORY Protectors of Mauna Kea raise awareness on the new Thirty Meter Telescope

KEVIN DENEEN SENIOR STAFF WRITER

Activist group Sacred Mauna Kea Hui is calling attention to the Thirty Meter Telescope (TMT) construction by rallying at UH Mānoa and Mauna Kea to put a stop to the industrialization on the mountain. According to Kamahana Kealoha, head facilitator of Sacred Mauna Kea Hui, many feel the mountain is sacred, but don’t realize the cultural and environmental desecration that is happening. Kealoha added that since the 1960’s, industrialization has grown on the mountain that was once a pristine summit. “It’s enticing that knowledge and the garnering of intelligence. Yet being a native of Waimea I have not benefi ted from any of that knowledge or intelligence they have talked about,” Kealoha said. Gov. David Ige announced that he is calling for a halt in the construction of the TMT until April 20. Still, many Hawaiians are in favor of the telescope. “There are some Hawaiians who MATHEW URSUA / KA LEO O HAWAI‘I  believe it is a worthwhile thing The name Mauna Kea means “white mountain,” but also contains an abbreviated form of Wākea, the sky father. to be doing and the benefi ts that come our way,” said Paul Coleman, at the highest level,” Meisenzahl ate took a stance in opposition to risk of mercury spills.

PHOTO ESSAY BY MATHEW URSUA PHOTO EDITOR

Hundreds gathered at University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa’s Hawaiian Studies Center at 10 a.m. Friday to join hands and line the side- walk of Dole Street to protest construction of the Thirty Meter Tele- scope (TMT) on Mauna Kea on Hawai‘i Island. Construction of the TMT has been met with opposition from Hawaiian groups who say Mauna Kea is a sacred site. The protests across the state highlight the debate over how to preserve culture and history in a world of advancing science and technology.

 Protesters build an ahu, or shrine, on Bachman lawn to send positive prayers regarding Mauna Kea.

The tables on campus themselves are very wide, offering ample space to lay out your belongings while you partake in a meal. The IT Center is a nice view in itself and the plants around you make you feel at home. The buildings that surround this location offer excellent shade so you’ll never have to worry about being baked in the sun.

HENRY MA SENIOR STAFF WRITER

Don’t try to hide it, we’ve all been in that situation when you’re the only one on lunch break and your friends are nowhere to be seen. What do you do, knowing that you have no one to eat with? Do you risk being labeled as a loner while countless people pass by and take pity as you sit idly by yourself? Or do you hold in your hunger and wait until you either get home or reunite with your friends to ﬁ nally satisfy your tummy? Unfortunately, many of us cannot bear the pain of starving through an hour-long break. But fret not, there are places where SAKAMAKI HALL you can eat alone without being judged by society. Walking past the Sustainability Courtyard, you’ll ﬁ nd yourself in Sakamaki Hall where the newly recon- structed courtyard within makes for yet another great spot to eat alone. This courtyard gives off a bit of a “feng shui” type of setting with bamboo shoots sprouting from the soil and tables reminiscent of jade jewelry. Just sitting here can soothe the soul and make you want that would want to start meditating. With few people frequenting this location, you’ll be sure to have a nice, quiet lunch happily alone. SUSTAINABILITY COURTYARD

Right between Kuykendall Hall and the Hawai‘i Insti- tute of Geophysics lies the Sustainability Courtyard. Lone eaters rejoice as countless patio tables are spread across the wide open area, with a variety of scenery and shade available. Also located here are two vege- tarian food trucks to fi ll your stomachs with healthy food as you enjoy the fresh air. The outdoor setting of the courtyard will make you feel like one with nature, with trees serving as shade from the afternoon sun. It is one of my favorite spots to sit alone and enjoy some food in peace. Fun fact: all the furniture located in the SINCLAIR CUBICLES courtyard is made from recycled material.
