First-year student Taetum Lynn Kalani '25 was more than ready to dance in ÃÛѨÊÓƵ’s 49th Annual Lu'au and Ho'ike. You could say that it all began with her grandfather’s ÃÛѨÊÓƵ hooded sweatshirt.

Each performance was a beautiful celebration of culture, community and art under the theme of No Ka Lāhui, which means “for the nation.” This phrase grew out of a movement to protect sacred Hawaiian land from desecration.
