Ka Wai Ola · San Bruno, CA
Nearby: San Bruno, CABy Maile Arvin, Ph.D. Over the summer, rumors started to spread that a key archive for Hawaiian history would be closed. I was concerned to hear this, as a scholar of Hawaiian history, especially since I have always meant to visit this archive but have yet to make it. It requires some intentional planning to get to from Hawaiʻi. It’s the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) regional facility of San Francisco, located in San Bruno, close to SFO airport. This facility opened in 1973. It holds documents created or used by the United States federal government on a wide range of issues. Basically any topic for which there is, or was in the past, a related federal government agency (e.g. immigration, commerce, veteran’s affairs), has a corresponding group of archival documents.

Organized by a team of fourth-year Sports Management students for their capstone class, all proceeds of the event were donated to the Whitman County Humane Society. Carsyn LeBlanc, fourth-year sports management student was one of the event organizers. When tasked with organizing this event, LeBlanc said her group’s choice of charitable organization was simple. “We had to put on an event benefiting a philanthropic organization of our choice.

Nearby: San Francisco, CAKey points Workday asked a judge to deny class status to potentially millions of job applicants Workday also wants the age bias group of 15,000-plus applicants in the case thrown out Workday says its customers, not its AI tools, made the hiring decisions Workday (WDAY) asked a federal judge on Nov. 10 to block job applicants from suing the company as a group over its AI screening software, Reuters reported. The applicants allege the software discriminated against them by race, sex, age, and disability. Workday made the request in two filings in San Francisco federal court. One opposes the applicants' bid for class certification. The other asks the judge to decertify a group of more than 15,000 people who joined the case to claim age discrimination. U.S. District Judge Rita Lin is set to hear both on March 9, 2027. The case, Mobley v. Workday, is the first lawsuit to broadly target the AI screening software that large employers now commonly use, according to Reuters.
