Student writing budget figures on a chalkboard for the 1968 Luau

Description

A student writing on a chalkboard, backstage at the university's annual Lu'au in 1968. He is writing down the expenses for various items in the event's budget, including the costs for transportation, publicity, concessions, food, costumes, and so on.

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.
