Some 160 new student grantees arrived recently at the East-West Center from about 50 Asian and Pacific countries. Part of their weeklong orientation to studying in Hawaii was a kind of crash course in "local style" living yesterday at the center's outdoor Friendship Circle. To open the program, participants gathered in a "yurt circle," grasping arms and alternately leaning back and forward, trusting each other to hold them up. Asal Baragchizadeh of Iran, left, Riana Agnesia of Indonesia and Dolores Cui Tongco of the Philippines took part.
