Craig DeSilva is glad to be playing recorded music on the air instead of playing for a live audience on stage as did when he studied piano. He began piano lessons when he was a child and continued piano studies at the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa (where he majored in broadcast journalism and minored in music) under the late Peter Coraggio.

Sharene Keliʻipunilei Lum Taba

Dr. Lum discusses Pope Francis’ visit to nations across Oceania in early September. The Pope’s visit raises key environmental issues, including biodiversity loss, habitat destruction, and climate change. He shares that Pope Francis is among a handful of prominent conservation leaders who remind us that there is a simple reason to look after the Earth and all people and creatures who inhabit it - it is the right and just thing to do.
