A Commencement Shaka Instead of a Handshake?

This weekend, UH will have its graduation ceremony with one twist. There will be no congratulatory handshake from the Manoa Chancellor, Virginia Hinshaw, due to fears about transmitting swine flu.

Yes, the H1N1 influenza A virus is present at the UH dorms, and the chancellor who also is an expert in infectious disease does not want to potentially spread the virus by shaking thousands of hands.

I say give the graduates a commencement shaka instead of a shake!
