The waves at Hukilau Beach in Laie were just ripples, and the ocean's
surface glassy, as Iosepa -- BYU-Hawaii's 57-foot traditional twin-hulled
Hawaiian sailing canoe -- left in the early hours of May 20 on its maiden
voyage beyond the north shore and windward side of Oahu.
Under Captain Chadd Paishon of the voyaging canoe Makalii, who is training Hawaiian Studies director William K. "Uncle Bill" Wallace III as Iosepa's captain, the beautiful wooden canoe carved from Fijian logs by a combination of community artisans, volunteers and BYU-Hawaii students, left at about 3:30 a.m. In addition to Paishon and Wallace, the crew consisted of Hawaiian Studies faculty and students, alumni, community members, several Makalii hands, and two BYU-Hawaii videographers to document the historic journey.

BYU-Hawaii business professor William "Bill" Hsu encouraged those who "feel
so overwhelmed with things, so stressed out that we feel like throwing in
the towel... [to] call a time-out, take a deep breath, get over to the
sidelines and talk things over with your Heavenly Father," in his May 13
devotional address.
"Is your life so busy you hardly have time to take a time out?" he said. "Or in life's game, do you have a challenge in controlling your temper or your language? Are school subjects pulling you down? And most important of all, are you trying to do it alone? Or are you smart enough to call time-out and ask the coach for help?"

BYU-Hawaii senior Lindsay Yamauchi is making the most of her college
academic experience through a "student research associateship" that allows
undergradate students on campus to participate directly in a professor's
research agenda.
When the opportunity to do such an associateship came, Yamauchi, an Oahu native and double major in International Cultural Studies-Anthropology and History, jumped on it and hasn't looked back since.
"When the opportunity arrived, I couldn't believe it," she said. "It came at a pivotal point in my college career, at a time when I had no idea of what direction I needed to take to attain the next level in my education. I knew the offer came as a blessing from Heavenly Father, so I took it. That is the main reason as to why I became so interested in the program."

BYU-Hawaii seniors Anuj Sehgal and Jason Kadarusman are developing a low
cost autonomous underwater robot.
The robot is designed to recognize and track objects in an underwater environment. Such technology is used to inspect underwater pipeline, mechanical, or electrical systems and explore deep-sea marine life and ship wreckage, explained Leslie Fife, assistant professor of computer science and faculty supervisor of the project.
Sehgal, who is from India and Kadarusman, from Indonesia, were inspired by a robotics class taught by Tim Stanley, professor in computer science and faculty supervisor. Stanley took his students to an underwater robot demonstration in Honolulu. Shortly thereafter, Seghal and Kadarusman began working on a robot of their own.
