Hello ES friends and family. The Ah Quon McElrath (AQ) gathering place on George Hall's third floor is such an active and exciting place. Imagine it. Students sit along the ledge waiting for class. Professors leave their doors open and give a smile to anyone passing by. The janitorial staff says hello. A student worker goes on errands. The graduate assistant posts up a new event flyer; it's an 'AWAkea. Don't you miss that community feel? Well, we are moving it online! Over the next couple of weeks the Department of Ethnic Studies will be hosting and posting events here. Be sure to check your email for updates. Also be sure to turn off notifications in forums! Perhaps the best part of the AQ Lounge Online is you don't have to wait for that terribly slow elevator. You do need a UH account to access Laulima though.
