  "When you have a stain like this on somebody's record, I don't think we take that person," said John Cole, chairman of the humanities department at Hawai'i Community College.
  
  Cole has e-mailed the advisory committee saying that Greenwood's candidacy brings back memories from the Dobelle years.
  ...
  That attitude of, 'I'm the boss and I'm going to hire people' is a scary attitude in the context of Hawai'i," Cole said.

  Each spring co-directors John Cole and Ron Danko and a motley cast of students commit magic: They put on a play.
  ...
  "There is a whole lot of projection going on in this play," says Cole, who teaches humanities at RCC."Sometimes it's so bright, it's hard to see at all."
  
  You follow Cole into the costume room/junk storage/dressing room, where costumes are hung in a long, narrow, L-shaped, cubicle whose cinder block walls are painted dark red.
  ...
  "Wear it," says Cole.
  ...
  "Having some people from the community join the class is very cool," Cole says."The hardest single thing is everybody's schedule.Second is scheduling the building - and creating the illusion it's a black box theater."
  
  Cole and Danko talked about the play at length with the cast.
  ...
  "We talked about complexity," Cole says."There's no black and white."
  
  The directors view Shylock as a victim of a very specific kind of racism in which people force him to be that which they despise.They need him yet project their fears onto him.He must betray his faith to exact revenge, although, ironically, he's the only guy in the play who can keep a commitment.

  "These Christians are bad," Cole says."Why can't a Jew be bad, too?"
  
  He calls the play "wildly prismatic, absurdly comedic, terribly tragic, and of course, romantically magic ... "
  
  In the end, he says, Shakespeare asks us to face our own perceptions of religion, race, and revenge.
  
  "No one comes out clean in a world where religion becomes perverted to racism, and commerce is king," he says.

  Nearly two dozen people form a circle and hold hands.
  
  "What I'd like you to do is focus on your reality," Cole says, "Your truth in the show.

  Rogersville Mayor Jack Cole said the city's three wells currently can handle a four-fold population increase.
  
  But with the city's 2,500 population growing at nearly 11 percent a year, he sees a tie-in with CU's water system as a future possibility.
  
  "It makes sense to me if we can utilize surface water to help protect our groundwater wells," he said.
