Lights from the stage in the BYU–Hawaii administration parking lot lit up smiling children’s faces as they were perched upon shoulders enjoying the fire knife dance performance, music from High Risk and BET, and dance with DJ Creighton Uale. Community members of all ages danced and laughed together as they celebrated Laie Days 2021 as a time of unity on July 2.
When Jeralee Galeai was 10 years old, she picked up a stick and wanted to practice fireknife dancing, or siva afi, with her older cousins. She said her father, David Galeai, who was teaching them, saw her potential and started working with her.
Jennifer and Keith Lane, who have been working in Religious Education at BYU–Hawaii since Fall 2002, are leaving the University after 19 years. Jennifer Lane said she treasures her sacred memories of students coming to class prepared and honestly sharing their feelings. Keith Lane said throughout his time at BYUH, he has enjoyed altering his teaching strategies to apply to different cultures and witnessing the Lord’s willingness to help students and faculty with their studies.
Academic Vice President John Bell is retiring after six years at BYU–Hawaii, and said he has many memories he will cherish upon his return to Provo, where he taught at BYU before coming to Laie.
Hundreds of educators were sitting in silence, the Cannon Activity Center completely dark except for the lights shining on the stage where musician Josh Tatofi was sitting. As the first sounds of Hawaiian music reverberated in the air, the audience swayed in their seats, the evidence of their mask-hidden smiles found in the wrinkles at the corners of their eyes.
BYU–Hawaii students in the 24-hour Theatre Project class performed 10-minute skits they had only 24 hours to write, prepare and perform on Saturday, May 22. The three skits were performed in the McKay Auditorium with a limited number of people in the audience due to COVID-19 restrictions. But the skits were also lived streamed so people could watch them without being the in auditorium.
Ryan Lager, who works for the Honolulu Fire Department, came into the Ke Alaka‘i office for the routine fire safety checks that happen periodically on the BYU–Hawaii campus. Upon inspecting the office, he suggested moving the microwave because it was plugged into an extension cord. He said it was a necessity to have the microwave plugged into a direct outlet to reduce the fire hazard.
After following their own individual inspiration to make the scriptures in Hawaiian more accessible, three locals said they worked together with more than 30 volunteers to digitize the scriptures in Hawaiian. They said this project required meticulous effort but was also transformative as they witnessed the Lord’s hand throughout the process and in the lives of those who helped.
Although this is the first Empower Your Dreams competition being held completely online, Spencer Taggart, an entrepreneurship professor at BYU–Hawaii from Laie, said this year’s 157 teams makes up the largest group that has ever competed.
The annual Ho’omaika’i Employee Appreciation Awards recognized valued employees for their hard work, selfless dedication, and love for their job and the University.
