just a tidbit on this "holiday" i heard from a local...
a couple of years ago, hawaii was choosing between columbus day vs. martin luther king day to make a state holiday. as it turns out, they went with mlk day; as a result, today was just another regular school day for everyone here at the university.
the gripe about today not being an official holiday is that october is the only month out of the entire hawaiian year to have absolutely no holidays. the students have to work without any extended weekends throughout the entire month...
alright, you can put your violins away now...
