Region 2 | Pacific | Fund Drive 2014 

Hello again, this time, we are writing to you from the beautiful island of
Oʻahu. There is so much to do on Hawaiʻi’s third largest island.  First we
should stop by the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa (UHM).

UHM has the Hawaiʻinuiakea School of Hawaiian Knowledge, which houses a
language center and a Hawaiian studies center and Ka Papa Loiʻi o Kanewai
(Kanewai), a Hawaiian cultural research and outreach program.

If you decide to go visit the campus be on the lookout for LINGUIST List
Alumnus Andrea Berez. She is currently an assistant professor of Linguistics
at UHM and some of her latest work was with speakers of Kuman (Papua New
Guinea).

>From Oʻahu, it’s just a 45-minute flight to the neighboring island of Hawaiʻi,
a.k.a., the Big Island. After touching down in Hilo, it’s time to explore some
national parks. While at the Hawai`i Volcanoes National Park, let’s take a
drive. Crater Rim Drive is an 11-mile road that goes past the caldera summit
and has access to many short walks along the many trails in the park.  To
learn more about Hawaiian history we will visit Pu`ukoholā Heiau National
Historic Site.  Here we can see the temple of King Kamehameha the Great.

Stay tuned next week for our next region! To see where we have been and to see
pictures of these regions, visit our fund drive page

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Eastern Michigan University and as such can receive donations through the EMU Foundation, which is a registered 501(c) Non Profit organization. Our Federal Tax number is 38-6005986. These donations can be offset against your federal and sometimes your state tax return (U.S. tax payers only). For more information visit the IRS Web-Site, or contact your financial advisor.

Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that they will match any gift you make to a non-profit organization. Normally this entails your contacting your human resources department and sending us a form that the EMU Foundation fills in and returns to your employer. This is generally a simple administrative procedure that doubles the value of your gift to LINGUIST, without costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment to check if your company operates such a program.

Thank you very much for your support of LINGUIST!
