Scholarships in Hawaii
About College Scholarships
In recent years, rising tuition, combined with an increase in the cost of living, has made it hard for many Americans to afford a higher education. In order to address this situation, a number of financing options such as student loans, grants, scholarships and work-study opportunities have been made available by the government, various educational institutions and private organizations. Scholarships are preferred over other types of aid because students do not have to repay them, meaning they can graduate debt-free.
Scholarships in Hawaii
If you are a resident of Hawaii, or if you are planning to enroll at a college there, you may be eligible for Hawaii Scholarships. These scholarships are a great way to cover education-related expenses such as tuition, fees, costs of books, other study materials and living expenses. Most scholarships are awarded based on an applicant's academic performance, athletic or artistic ability, or other special talents and skills. Some scholarships are awarded based on financial need, while others are made available to students enrolled in a particular degree or field of study.
Hawaii Scholarships
The financial aid office and the Hawaii Department of Education can help you explore the available scholarships in Hawaii. These scholarships have different eligibility requirements, so you should check with a sponsor or financial aid office at your college in order to make sure you are eligible. Some of the scholarships that may be available to you include:
- Need-Based Scholarship Program. This scholarship is available for students enrolled at an accredited medical school.
- Hawaii Community Foundation Scholarships. This award is given to residents of Hawaii enrolled in undergraduate or graduate courses full-time.
- Hawaii Education Association Scholarships. These scholarships are available to members of the Hawaii Education Association (HEA).
- Hawaii Rotary Youth Foundation Scholarship. The Hawaii Rotary Youth Foundation Scholarship is for students who are applying as full-time students at an accredited college for a four-year baccalaureate degree.
Other Financing Options
In some cases, scholarships may not sufficiently cover all of your educational expenses; in this situation, you may want to seriously consider borrowing a private student loan. Simply use the free student loan comparison tool on our website to find out more about all of the available options.

I'm a 58 year old supporter and encourager of young talent on YouTube, Facebook, ReverbNation and RaterBug. I live in San Diego, California, and absolutely love it here. Contributing writer to http://stars2come.com/ Brookie is the daughter of a former neighbor that started following me all over the place when she was 4 years old. She's now 9 years old and is a big part of my life, the biggest part of my life! She had open heart surgery at 3 days old and was abandoned by her father at the age of 3 months old. I've been taking care of her needs as well as serving the roll of her father and grandfather all rolled into one. I started my YouTube, Facebook, ReverbNation and RaterBug accounts as an extension of my nurturing nature and it allowing me to encourage young ladies to pursue their creative interests. I've also been of the state of mind that when kids sacrifice their play time in order to go for their dreams they deserve more than the all too common "Good" or "Nice Job" comments. I enjoy supporting both new and established young artists in the pursuit of their happiness. Perry
HI Perry. So, so, so glad to see you back. You are a much loved and respected member of the whole young talent community and I can see how much everyone has been pulling for you. Thanks too, for inviting Leili here, I look forward to checking out her music. :) Take care Perry.
Hi RB, thank you for your kind words. I truly have missed spending time here over the past few months and I'm sure you have many more great artists as members now. Whenever I come across a new artist who's looking to build up a following I send them here because your project has really taken off with the fantastic help of so many great people.
Thank you for showing me this site! Hopefully my videos will get some more exposure! :D
You're very welcome! Start sending out friend invitations to people here to get the ball rolling. I'm certain people will welcome you and make you feel at home.
Very nice to see you!
Hope you are feeling better!
Thanks so much, Alyssa! This past few days I've been feeling much better but I'm still confined to bed; therefore, I've been afforded the time to do a lot of catching up. It's only been 2 weeks to this day since my surgery, but all of the meds are working great and, most importantly, I'm healing.
I am glad to hear you are doing better and are healing! You have been in everyone's thoughts and prayers!
I couldn't have done this without the many thoughts and prayers coming in my direction.
Nothing like being served breakfast, lunch and diner in bed, and here comes my next meal; although, it does get old... I'll be back shortly to pick up where I left off yesterday.
Hey there Perry,thanks for accepting my invitation,I hope you're doing better! Thanks again for your wonderful comment!
Hi Sary, I am feeling better these days and have a lot of catching up to take care of here on this site and others. I will get back to your Hive again at some point.
Not a problem Perry,glad you're feeling better.
Hi Perry,so glad to hear you are doing better! Looks like my prayers are working=)
Indeed they are! Keep 'em coming, please! They still stay I won't be completely healed until around Thanksgiving. I may need another surgery in the future.
I really appreciate the background you supplied concerning this particular song, especially in light of it being a favorite classics of mine. The singing is presented at a very high level of skill and I look forward to getting to know you better through your work. Great Job!
Thank you all that have been keeping me in your thoughts and prayers. I still have a long ways to go before I'm completely healed, somewhere around Thanksgiving. Also, I have friend invites going back to March 16th that I still need to address. I'm going to attempt to get caught up on all invites and go from there. Thanks for not forgetting about me, and please if you've been wondering about me, then please know it was out of my control.
Thinking of you and wishing you godspeed, Perry! Thanks for checking in with us here at RB!
Thanks Bobby my friend, I had to break there real quick as the doctors have been working on putting some weight on me. I'm 5 feet 10 inches and was down to 129 pounds just 13 days ago. I'm now at 134 and they still want me to add more.
Hi Perry, Glad to see you making the rounds here at RB today...keeping you in my thoughts and prayers!
Thank you very much, Matt!
thanks for accepting the invite :)

Ed. Note: The following is a parody of Dwight Howard's free agency saga written by friend of the blog Robert Silverman. You can read more from Robert over at TrueHoop Network Sister Site/Brother Blog Knickerblogger. Now sit back, relax, and let the satire consume you.
Contrary to published reports, the Dwightmare isn't over yet. In a hastily organized press conference at 5am from a remote sub-basement of the purportedly haunted Stanley Hotel in Colorado, Dwight Howard announced that he had not yet made a decision on which team he will sign with because he's determined to first finish reading David Foster Wallace's seminal, ground-breaking novel, Infinite Jest.
"I was listening to offers from the Rockets and the Lakers and the Mavericks and the Hawks and I think maybe a Chuck E Cheese franchise rec league team and I just couldn't make up my mind," the free agent center stated, looking noticeably disheveled, as if he hadn't slept in many a night. He continued, "So when I saw this copy of Infinite Jest being used to prop up a rusty, discarded hot water heater, I realized that I'd never actually gotten all the way through it. "
Gobbling fistfuls of Jujubes, Howard added that he had been a long-time fan of Wallace's work, beginning with Brief Interviews With Hideous Men. "I thought it was about Stan Van Gundy! Hahahahahaha. I'm kidding. Seriously though, then I moved on to his non-fiction stuff—the Lobster thing. And I knew I wanted to read Infinite Jest, but it's so freaking long. Who has the time?"
And then, like I started and it was really confusing. The narrative keeps jumping around and there's this whole mishegas with like subsidized time? What's that? Do you know whether the Year of the Depend Adult Undergarment is before or after the Year of the Trial-Size Dove Bar? I don't. No one does. And what's with all these Canadians in wheelchairs? But I was crouched in the corner of the basement and like, I've been reading the book non-stop for the last 48 hours. I dunno, maybe more. I totally lost track of time. Subsidized time, get it! And let me tell you, my mind is completely blown. Completely. Totally Blown. Eliminate-my-own-map-type blown.
Howard's behavior began to grow more feverish and erratic as he continued to outline his ever-increasing passion for David Foster Wallace's fiction, and his borderline obsessive quest to complete the novel and determine, "What the hell Wallace really wanted to say."
I mean, I think I've got it. Infinite Jest the book IS Infinite Jest the movie. Because of its non-completed arc, inspires the same kind of all-consuming, self-abnegating, addiction in the reader that the characters experience. You hear me? The book itself is something you get hooked on. And yeah, the Hamlet thing, but that's like totally a red herring. I mean Joelle says it's a pretentious title, which is totally like Wallace making a meta-critique of his own delusions of grandeur to rewrite freaking Shakespeare.
When asked what he thought of the book's themes of addictive behavior and an eternal quest for personal pleasure necessarily leading to repetitive, self-destructive behavior, Howard seemed to ignore the question entirely.
I so want to figure out what happened to Hal. Did he eat the fungus or was it the DMZ or is it just withdrawal from marijuana? I like, really need to know the answer, you know. I keep going back and forth and changing my mind and that's really frustrating, you get me?
Howard added that his current literary inquisition would only ensure that he makes the proper decision in deciding which team to ply his trade with next season.
Look, the suicide thing. You get to a place where Wallace has to be viewed as Kate Gompert, and that's so freaking reductive, man. Wallace-as-Gompert necessarily forces the reader into a wholly simplistic either/or cage; eviscerating the larger conundrum – I mean it's so freaking simple that it's like monstrous, you know – is life worth living? And like if Wallace said no, it isn't and…I dunno. That just so depresses me.
So I can't do that. I can't choose one team and reject another. There's a third path where I, Dwight Howard, play for all teams and yet none. David would have wanted it that way, I think. I dunno. I keep going back and forth and back and forth. it's really giving me a case of the Howling Fantods.
Muttering to himself, Howard then abruptly left the podium, furiously highlighting sections and making notes in the corners of his ragged, dog-eared copy.
Right. Yeah. So I just gotta finish this book and then I super-promise. NBA team. Real soon. Legacy. Gonna be champions.
He paused momentarily and began barking at the teeming throng of reporters
Oh yeah. You GOTTA read the footnotes. Don't skip them or you miss important stuff, like Mike Pemulis getting the boot and…John 'No Relation' Wayne dies! It's in Gately's precognitive fever-dream. Maybe I should get together a book club and we can all talk this thing out. Morey can come. Kupchak can come.
But not Kobe, 'cause he kinda reminds me of poor old Orin Incandenza.

Mishawaka, Ind. Dozens of police officers were called out to look for a teen in the St. Joseph River around 4:30 in Mishawaka. Thankfully they quickly got him to shore.
It happened at Lincolnway near Logan. The 13-year-old was court-mandated to stay at Oaklawn Psychiatric Facility. Security was chasing him when he ran into the river.
South Bend Police noticed the chase and stopped to help. That is when a dive team and Mishawaka Police were also called out. The teen waded in the river for a short time, before he was pulled out safely.

Just a few updates,
- /oper now works (/oper username password)
- Fixed a bug in the userlist – sometimes it would get confused between op/admin.
- /quote works now (Takes rest of the line as literal IRC command)
- Fixed a bug in tabs – sometimes the sort order would get messed up with dead tabs.
- Fixed/vastly improved the firefox 2 "disappearing cursor" issue.
- Ability to "kill" users who persistently spam (Yes, the idiots have appeared, sending spam to channels on irc.mibbit.com. It's hard to feel anything but pity for these sad souls).
- New settings for tabs (tabFontSize, tabFontFamily, tabColorAlert). So if you'd like the tabs bigger, or you hate the yellow color highlight, change them.
Got up to about 175 users using mibbit yesterday at the same time, which is a record so far. Thanks everyone

Statement as issued Friday morning by the American Civil Liberties Union of Indiana:
Indianapolis - When a husband or wife passes away, the unavoidable task of arranging the funeral can serve as a measure of comfort to the grieving spouse. But in 2011, when Midori Fujii's wife of 11 years Kris Brittain died after a two-year struggle with ovarian cancer, because her California marriage is not recognized in Indiana, the funeral home would not allow her the dignity of making those decisions. Because she was not "next-of-kin," they said, Fujii had "no relationship" to her wife.
Today the American Civil Liberties Union of Indiana, along with attorney Sean Lemieux of the Lemieux Law Office in Indianapolis and the national ACLU filed a lawsuit in federal court to challenge that law, Indiana Code 31-11-1-1, saying the law violates the Due Process and Equal Protection clauses of the Fourteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. The lawsuit was filed on behalf of Fujii and 14 other plaintiffs, including two children, who have suffered similar indignities and discrimination because Indiana does not permit marriage for same-sex couples or recognize marriages conducted outside of the state. The suit seeks to stop the state from enforcing this law, to require the state to recognize marriages that have taken place outside of Indiana and to allow same-sex couples to wed in Indiana.
"Marriage has long played a fundamental role in our society," said ACLU of Indiana Legal Director Kenneth J. Falk. "By failing to allow or recognize marriages for same-sex couples in Indiana, the state is perpetuating a discriminatory practice that cannot be squared with the Constitution."
"The government is a powerful teacher of discrimination," said Lemieux. "There is no justification for Indiana to treat these families as second class citizens. The families in this case want the responsibility, security and dignity that only marriage provides and their children deserve the same protections that other Indiana families enjoy."
In Fujii's case, without access to the familiar language and legal label of marriage, she was unable to instantly or adequately communicate the depth and permanence of her commitment to her wife, or to obtain respect for that commitment as others do simply by invoking their married status. Adding insult to injury, because Fujii's marriage is not recognized in Indiana, she was required to pay more than $300,000.00 in Indiana inheritance tax on all of the property that her wife left to her, including their shared home. If Fujii were an opposite sex spouse she would have paid no inheritance tax on the property she inherited.
The other plaintiffs in the lawsuit have suffered similar indignities. Click here to see their stories.
Jane Henegar, ACLU of Indiana executive director, said the time for change in Indiana is now: "Even though we have temporarily avoided a state constitutional amendment banning marriage for same-sex couples, we cannot stand by idly while the Constitution's guarantees of fairness and equality are denied to so many loving couples. Indiana's marriage law continues to discriminate against same-sex couples who desire to be wed in Indiana and those whose marriages are recognized in other states but not their own. All families should be afforded the same safeguards, benefits and comforts of marriage."
"We are in the midst of an astounding point in history when Americans from coast to coast are realizing that all loving and committed couples deserve the freedom to marry," said Chase Strangio, staff attorney with the ACLU LGBT Project. "The plaintiff couples and families and all same-sex couples in Indiana should have the same respect and security as any others."
The lawsuit, Midori Fujii, et al. v. Indiana Governor, et al., Cause No. 1:14-cv-00404-TWP-DKL was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Indiana on March 14, 2014. Attorneys on the case include Kenneth J. Falk and Gavin M. Rose, ACLU of Indiana, Sean C. Lemieux, Lemieux Law Office in Indianapolis and the national ACLU.

A border fence works. It has worked for years for the Israelies on the Palestinian border.
Click Here if you Like this Comment 37 persons like this.
I believe that West Bank border is about 400 miles, #1, and all of it is not fenced. The US-Mexico border is almost 2,000 miles, most of it in Texas and a lot of that Texas border in unfenceable geography.Simply monitoring 2000 miles of fence, if the fence could be built, would require huge numbers of law enforcement personnel.A physical fence is possible in some areas, an electronic fence in others, drone patrols in some sections. But, simply comparing the Israel fence to the US fence is a false analogy, much like those who insist we can secure airliners as easily as Israel does. We have to consider the volume, just as in border miles.

Fences can be useful but enforcement of laws against hiring of illegals is more important. Some say E-verify is cumbersome - or doesn´t work - but until they come up with the perfect alternative - it needs to be used.The real problem are politicians like Biden who claim once you get past the fence you are a US citizen. (or at least a US Democrat). Biden recently had a new planet named after him as the discoverer found it to be particularly dim.

#2 comparing the capacity of the US to that of Israel is a false argument. Israel is the size of New Jersey. Their economy is a miniscule fraction of the US economy. The poulation of Israel is 8,124,000 and the population of the US is 317,297,938. It is precisely because of our size, technology, manufacturing capability and ingenuity that we can erect a fence. We undertook more daunting challanges during WWII. Despite what Emperor Zippy thinks, we are indeed exceptional.

I would also rather hire "Huge numbers of law enforcement personnel" than mantain the current "huge" numbers of illegals that casually stroll accross our borders every day and cost American tax payers billions in social welfare.

An effective borderline fence is all well and good as far as it goes, but you have to remember that at least half of the current illegal alien population initially entered the USA legally with either a border crossing card or some sort of temporary visa, then did not leave the country as they promised to do, took up illegal residence in some US community, procured false or fraudulent identification documents, and either took an American job or is perpetrating criminal activity. Less then one percent of those illegal aliens are being removed from the country as the Democrats consider them to be prospective Democrat voters once legalized, along with some Republicans just want them here as cheap labor, and thus refuse to effective enforce the immigration laws.The most important future immigration enforcement tool to reduce mass uncontrolled illegal immigration is a competent e-verify type employee verification program that all employers must be required to use anytime they hire anyone. The reason that the current e-verify system is incompetent 50% of the time is that illegal alien imposters can easily successfully defraud that system by using someone else´s validly issued identification documents.To be effective any new e-verify type system would have to be underpinned by a new modernized social security card issued to everybody under age 55 who can lawfully work in the USA. The card must bear a digital photo of the lawful bearer, other biometric identifiers, and have a chip capable of being instantly electronically authenticated. That should be the only document that employers could accept anytime they hire anyone. With effective enforcement such a system should keep the vast majority of illegal aliens out of American jobs. Then most would not come here anymore and illegal aliens here now, if they are kept off welfare, would go home in significant numbers.

a fence is necessary but not sufficient. I think most of us know that.What is also necessary is vigorous interior enforcement. In many parts of the country you can hardly turn around without bumping into illegal aliens living here quite openly. For years. And NOTHING is done. Nothing. I´m not talking California, Texas, Arizona, New Mexico. I´m talking, from personal experience, Kansas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Maryland, and New Jersey. And that´s just the places I´ve personally encountered them. Yet NOTHING is done. We can´t talk sensibly about rule of law so long as this is the case.And turning apprehended illegals loose on their own recognizance, as was done recently, is beyond treason.The Rethuglicans are at least as guilty on this issue as are the Dhimmicrats. And we know it.So build the fence. It won´t be totally effective, though land mines would be a useful addition, as are automatically actuated full auto weapons. It will at the least cause the illegals to pause for consideration. And start hanging officials in these "sanctuary cities".
