The blessing for the new store was held July 23. <\/p>\n<p>The idea of having a Starbucks on campus was generated and spearheaded by students on the <abbr>东精影业<\/abbr> M&#257;noa Campus Center Board, who recognized a serious need. <\/p>\n<p>Campus Center Board President <strong>Michelle Tagorda<\/strong>, a senior at <abbr>东精影业<\/abbr> M&#257;noa, sees the new Starbucks as a place that students can gather on campus. &ldquo;It&#8217;s not something they have to go off campus like Starbucks at Kahala Mall but something they can come here and get something to drink and do the studying they wanted to do.&rdquo; <\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;We just wanted to have a gathering place for students that they can rely on,&rdquo; said Tagorda. <\/p>\n<p>The <abbr>东精影业<\/abbr> M&#257;noa Starbucks has extended hours&#8212;6 a.m. to 10 p.m., Monday thru Thursdays, and 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Fridays, for the spring and fall semesters. The former coffee shop used to close at 4 pm. <\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;There is really no place to like hang out other than the library at nighttime if you wanted to stay on campus,&rdquo; said Darcy Smith, who just graduated from <abbr>东精影业<\/abbr> M&#257;noa. &ldquo;So that will be really good for students for studying, if you have to meet up with people, you can meet at Starbucks now.&rdquo; <\/p>\n<p>The former coffee shop at campus center, the Corner Market Caf&#233;, is being converted into a grab-and-go service with salads, sandwiches and drinks. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The University of <span aria-label=\"Hawaii\">Hawai&#699;i<\/span>&#8217;s first ever, fully licensed Starbucks is now open for business at <abbr>东精影业<\/abbr> M&#257;noa. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[26,12],"tags":[9,947],"class_list":["post-8459","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-community","category-video","tag-uh-manoa","tag-uh-system","entry","has-media"],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8459","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/16"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8459"}],"version-history":[{"count":16,"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8459\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":160060,"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8459\/revisions\/160060"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8459"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8459"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8459"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
