  • Authentic Hawaii Will Enable Us to Explore Hawaii’S Big Island with a Stay at the Private Home of the Dewars, Founders of China Advocates
    A U T HJanuaryE N T9 -I 14,C 2018H A W A I I Dear Washington & Lee Alumni, Hawaii is much more than beaches. It’s gardens and waterfalls and rainforests and volcanoes; it’s island history and native traditions, architecture and astronomy, rare flora and fauna, small towns and museums, home cooking and walks along the bay. Here is a travel adventure designed to help us feel more like new residents who have been given a rare opportunity to know Hawaii beyond its fabled shorelines and surf. Authentic Hawaii will enable us to explore Hawaii’s Big Island with a stay at the private home of the Dewars, founders of China Advocates. This grand home, known as the Thomas Guard House, is located in the community of Reed’s Island, where the Hawaiian royals once resided. Torch Ginger, Hawaiian Tropical Botanical Gardens Visiting Hilo’s historic downtown is a proverbial step back in time. Here we’ll explore muse ums, shops, galleries, and restaurants, and mingle with Hilo’s friendly and diverse residents. We’ll take daily excursions to experience the area’s many natural wonders, including Kīlauea, one of the world’s most active volcanoes, and Mauna Loa, Earth’s most massive volcano. We’ll also visit research centers and organizations working to advance scientific understanding and preserve the rich heritage of th e area. Leading our trip will be W&L professor of geology Sea Turtle and associate provost Elizabeth Knapp, whose special interest in Hawaiian volcanology will serve our scientific curiosity well. This insider’s exploration of the Big Island is perfectly timed to help you escape the winter doldrums.

    UNIVERSITY OF HAWAII LIBRARY PERSONAL ACCOUNTS FROM SURVIVORS OF THE HILO TSUNAMIS OF 1946 AND 1960: TOWARD A DISASTER COMMUNICATION MODEL A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE DIVISION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF HAWAII IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS IN COMMUNICATION MAY 2003 By Jeanne Branch Johnston Thesis Committee: Majid Tehranian, Chairperson Anthony Marsella Walter C. Dudley III DEDICATION PAGE I would like to dedicate this thesis to the survivors ofthe 1946 and 1960 tsunami in HUo, Hawaii --- and to those who did not survive. IV ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank Gina Kaiu for all ofher help in putting together the figures and tables for this thesis and Malia Bervar for her tireless editing and endless support. v ABSTRACT In 1960 a tsunami took the lives of61 people in Hilo, Hawaii only 14 years after 96 people were lost in the 1946 tsunami. In 1960 there was 12 hours notice of a possible large tsunami and a siren warning system in place that was sounded more than four hours prior to the event. The governmental agencies knew there was a tsunami alert, the media was broadcasting warnings. What went wrong? My research includes analysis oftranscripts available in the archives ofthe Pacific Tsunami Museum ofinterviews conducted with survivors ofboth the 1946 and 1960 tsunamis. A focus group was utilized to assess current tsunami awareness. Additionally, I examined logs ofthree governmental agencies recorded during the 1960 tsunami. My research indicates effective tsunami mitigation can be accomplished only through continual tsunami awareness education for the public, governmental agencies and the media.
