Description

Pacific University women students performing a dance at the 1970 Haumana O Hawai'i Homecoming Dance . They are identified on the original slide as: Mia Akau, Wanda Fountain, Bobbi Rapozo and Colleen Keliikoa.

Pacific University began hosting an annual Lu'au in 1961. Student members of Na Haumana O Hawai'i (Hawaiian Club) organized and performed in the event, raising money for scholarships. The Lu'au included a dinner, sales of leis and other products flown in from Hawai'i, and performances of Pacific island dances. The Lu'au is normally held on the second Saturday in April in Washburne Hall. The name of the event was changed to Lu'au and Ho'ike in 2019.
