  • History of the Pacific Islands Studies Program at the University of Hawaii: 1950-198
    HISTORY OF THE PACIFIC ISLANDS STUDIES PROGRAM AT THE UNIVERSITY OF HAWAII: 1950-198 by AGNES QUIGG Workinq Paper Series Pacific Islands Studies Program canters for Asian cmd Pacific Studies University of Hawaii at Manoa EDITOR'S OOTE The Pacific Islands Studies Program. often referred to as PIP, at the University of Hawaii had its beginnings in 1950. These were pre-statehood days. The university was still a small territorial institution (statehood came in 1959), and it is an understatement to say that the program had very humble origins. Subsequently, it has had a very checkered history and has gone through several distinct phases. These and the program's overall history are clearly described and well analyzed by Ms. Agnes Quigg. This working paper was originally submitted by Ms. Quigg as her M.A. thesis in Pacific Islands Studies. Ms. Quigg' is a librarian in the serials division. Hamnlton Library, University of Hawaii. Earlier in this decade, she played a crucial role in the organization of the microfilming of the archives of the U.S. Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands, Office of the High CommiSSioner, Saipan, Northern Marianas. The archives are now on file at Hamilton Library. Formerly, Ms. Quigg was a librarian for the Kamehameha Schools in Honolulu. R. C. Kiste Director Center for Pacific Islands Studies THE HISTORY OF THE PACIFIC ISLANDS STUDIES PROGRAM AT THE UNIVERSITY OF HAWAII: 1950-1986 By Agnes Quigg 1987 ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I am indebted to a number of people who have helped me to complete my story. Judith Hamnett aided immeasurably in my knowledge of the early years of PIP, when she graciously turned over her work covering PIP's first decade.

Blackboard: Selected Readings Supplemental Optional Readings/Materials on reserve (see attached bibliography): Content: The early (prehistoric and pre-modern) colonization of the Pacific islands began as a slow migration process more than 50,000 years ago. The subsequent cultural patterns of adaptation to life on remote islands are revealed through archaeological evidence. In this class, a review of basic archaeological concepts provides a basis for formulating a regional frame- work for discussing the migrations and maritime cultural adaptations made by peoples moving into the Pacific and for clarifying their relationships to complex cultures in mainland Asia. In particular, the area of SE Asia and the Southwest Pacific provides an early cultural foundation, and out of this, a broad, later dispersal into the more remote eastern Pacific islands follows. Changing Pacific Island cultures in Melanesia, Micronesia, and Polynesia (geographically, from Australia-New Guinea across the Pacific to Rapa Nui) are examined from the time of the earliest human settlement through the stages of complex society existing at the time of early Western contact.

  • IN the NATIONAL PARKS and MONUMENTS and PUBLIC LANDS Teaching Paleontology in the National Parks and Monuments and Public Lands
    IN THE NATIONAL PARKS AND MONUMENTS AND PUBLIC LANDS Teaching Paleontology in the National Parks And Monuments and Public Lands A Curriculum Guide for Teachers of the Second and Third Grade Levels Project coordinated by Marcia Fagnant, Fossil Butte National Monument. Developed by Michael B. Leite, Ph.D., and Brent H. Breithaupt, M.S., University of Wyoming. Design and editing by Linda West, Dinosaur Nature Association, Vernal Utah. Additional support by Bureau of Land Management, Wyoming. Procduced by the National Park Service, Fossil Bute National Monument, Kemmerer, Wyoming, 1995 Forward This curriculum guide for paleontology was developed by Fossil Butte National Monument as part of its growing environmental education program. It is designed to be used by teachers as an aid in presenting principles of fossils and past life to students in the second and third grades. Paleontology involves the integration of a number of different areas of expertise. We hope these exercises will help teachers to encourage the various talents their students have to offer. While only a minority of students may feel a calling to become scientists, those who do not will, with luck, be stimulated by the cultural or artistic aspects of paleontology, and perhaps better identify with scientists in general. The primary message of these units should be that science is fun. The concepts of ancient life and geologic time are the focus of paleontology. These are difficult concepts for anyone to understand, especially children. The study of paleontology including a field experience has the potential to bring these concepts to life by showing, for example, that fossils can be found hear home, and that by learning about them we can learn much about our own environment and how it has changed.

  • Biogeography of the Tropical Pacific!
    Pacific Science (1992), vol. 46, no. 2: 276-293 © 1992.by University of Hawaii Press. All rights reserved Biogeography of the Tropical Pacific! D. R. STODDART2 ABSTRACT: Many previous biogeographic regionalizations of the islands and reefs of the tropical Pacific are unsatisfactory: the regions as defined are heterogeneous, localities with unlike biotas are grouped together, and those with similar characteristics are placed in separate categories. Often distinctions appear to be based on cultural or political rather than biogeographic consider~ ations. Criteria are defined for the establishment of biogeographic boundaries. Instead of the hierarchical schemes often utilized, it is proposed that the basis of biogeographic regionalization be typological. A distinction is made between the biogeographic characteristics of atolls and other reef islands, elevated limestone (makatea) islands, and high (often volcanic) islands. It is concluded that ifthe first two categories are filtered out, the treatment ofthe biogeography ofthe third group and hence the regionalization ofthe Pacific becomes relatively unproblematical. BIOGEOGRAPHERS HAVE BEEN CONCERNED with discuss the difficulties associated with existing the distribution of plants and animals in the schemes and suggest solutions for them. tropical Pacific for over a century (Sclater 1858, Wallace 1876,1882), and the differences between Pacific insular biotas and those of BIOGEOGRAPHIC REGIONAL SCHEMES East and Southeast Asia and Australia have long been recognized.
