Profile
"Raising awareness about the different lifestyles that exist in our world today, through education, community affairs, and social involvement!" This is our mission statement... and we mean it too! CUH GSA started in January 2007 and has been going strong ever since. We are making three years pretty soon! We try to spread the word about CUH GSA and other GSAs on the island. We tell them who we are and what is the purpose of the club. We do this through community service, flyers, and word of mouth. We hold an event at the end of every school year called "The Night of Kings & Queens!" We collaborate with all the other GSAs in Oahu to put on a show for all of you. It is a great experience and lots of fun. So keep your eyes open because information about The Night of Kings & Queens are coming soon! CUH GSA supports the LGBTQI community so there will be some news that doesn't pertain to CUH nor the other GSAs. Enjoy!

HAWAII CIVIL UNIONS BILL DEMOLISHED
Hawaii lawmakers declined to vote Friday on a bill that would have allowed same-sex civil unions, effectively doing away with the measure. State House leaders said a narrow majority of representatives would have voted for civil unions, but they decided to indefinitely postpone a decision on whether to grant gay and lesbian couples the same rights and benefits the state provides to married couples. Civil union supporters in the crowded House gallery on Friday shouted, "Shame on you!" while opponents cheered.
"It's an election year, and they're more concerned about keeping their seats than doing what's right," said Stephen Nagle of Ka'awa, wearing a rainbow lei in support of civil unions.
