[edit] Homophobic influence?
I find it interesting that this article (as well as Rainbow Warriors) fails to mention homophobia as a seemingly important reason for the rejection of the rainbow as a team symbol. Though I do not know much about the history of "Rainbow Warrior" in the context of the University of Hawai‘i, it seems apparent that certain segments of society are unwilling to use the rainbow, a rather universal symbol, when it is also a symbol of the LGBT community. To not mention this in the article comes off as a glaring omission. If I knew more about the issue, I'd edit the article; instead, I'd love to see someone more knowledgeble flesh this out. :: Salvo (talk) 01:32, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
- Or, you could be a conspiracy theorist. "Rainbow" is not a tough name for a football team. Chris (クリス) (talk) 05:11, 13 January 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Orange Sculpture
Does anyone know about the orange sculpture on the corner of dole and east west? A friend told me that it's supose to be a middle finger flipping people off as they walk to school from the dorms. Another told me it was towards the Enginerring builiding. Rockmusic389
I heard that story too. It looks like similar to a middle finger when viewed from dole street near the description pedestal. Bostonvaulter 06:20, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
