Abstract
The campus of Iowa State University is 4,000 miles from the sands of Hawaii and seems an almost unlikely destination as a college choice. Cyclone students from the Hawaiian Islands find themselves in an environment foreign from their own with many differences. Culture shock hits hard on islanders who are studying, living and working in a surrounding opposite their own. In a small group discussion, Iowa State students from the Hawaiian Islands clarify misunderstandings, such as the differences between Native Hawaiian and Non-Native populations of the islands.
