Aligned with the mission of the UH Community Colleges, we are committed to serving all segments of our Hawaiʻi Island community. Ke Ala Nuʻukia No ka hoʻopiʻi ʻana i ka hoʻonaʻauao ʻia ʻana a kau i ka puaaneane, na ke Kulanui Kaiaulu ʻo Hawaiʻi e kaulele ma ka ʻike e pono ai nā hoa Kauhale i naʻauao a mākaukau hoʻi. Ma hope mākou o ke ala nuʻukia o nā Kulanui Kaiaulu Hawaiʻi a pau a na mākou nō e lawelawe i ko Hawaiʻi nui kuauli. Vision Our Kauhale of lifelong learners will be productive and engaged citizens capable of meeting the complex challenges of our island and global communities. Ka ʻŌlelo Nuʻukia E lilo ana nā kānaka ʻimi naʻauao o ke Kauhale i kupa hoʻoikaika a papau hoʻi i hiki ke ʻaʻa i nā kūlana nōhihi o ko kākou kaiaulu mokupuni a me ko kākou kaiaulu honua. 1 Introduction About Us Kauhale Unique to Hawai‘i Community College (Hawai‘i CC) is the academic celebration of the indigenous host culture by embracing the concept of Kauhale, which traditionally means the Hawaiian village. Kauhale is an ‘ohana (family) of administrators, faculty, staff, students, their families, and the Hawai‘i Island community that contributes measurably to the success of the College’s mission and outcomes. Kauhale maximizes the “community” in the mission through dialogue, planning, innovation, and assessment across traditional College divisions and units. Kauhale enables all members of the College ‘ohana to recognize and celebrate individual skills, knowledge, and experiences as well as the skills, knowledge, and experiences of others. Kauhale unites all components of Hawai‘i CC into an “academic village without walls” for the overall success of its learners and the learners’ communities and their families, in the spirit of E ‘Imi Pono (seeking excellence).1 History Hawai‘i CC is one of seven community colleges in the University of Hawai‘i (UH) system, which also includes four four-year institutions. The Hawai‘i Territorial Legislature initially established the College in 1941 as Hawai‘i Vocational School. With advancement in technology and expansion of educational opportunities into broader fields of technical training, the institution was renamed in 1956 as Hawai‘i Technical School. In May 1970, the institution joined the University of Hawai‘i as a comprehensive community college with the name Hawai‘i Community College. With the last name change, the administration of the College was transferred from the Hawai‘i Department of Education to the UH System. From 1970 through 1990, Hawai‘i CC was a unit of the University of Hawai‘i at Hilo (UH Hilo). In fall 1990, the UH Board of Regents (BOR) voted to separate the two institutions, and Hawaiʻi CC assumed its own administrative responsibilities. Other historical developments for the College were the offering of college degree classes in Kona beginning in 1982 and the establishment of continuing education programs throughout Hawai‘i Island in 1992. In 1996, the UH BOR created the UH Center model to make higher educational opportunities available to Hawai‘i residents living on the islands of Kaua‘i, Maui, and Hawai‘i. As a result, the UH Center, West Hawai‘i (UHCWH) was established in South Kona on Hawai‘i Island. In July 1997, the administration of the UHCWH was transferred from UH Hilo to Hawai‘i CC. In fall 2015, UHCWH relocated to a new campus in North Kona that also included a campus name change to Hawai‘i Community College–Pālamanui. Location Hawai‘i CC serves all of Hawai‘i County, which encompasses Hawai‘i Island, the southernmost island in the Hawaiian archipelago. The College is the island’s only comprehensive, open-door community college. The main Manono campus (1175 Manono Street, Hilo, HI 96720) and shared facilities at UH Hilo (200 West Kāwili Street, Hilo, HI 96720) are located in the county 1 http://hawaii.hawaii.edu/about%20 2 Introduction seat of Hilo on the east side of the island. On the west side of the island, the College provides offerings at its branch Pālamanui campus (73-4255 Ane Keohokālole Hwy., Kailua-Kona, HI 96740), which is located in Kona, approximately 75 miles away from the Manono campus. Prior to the opening of the Pālamanui campus, classes were offered in West Hawai‘i at the UHCWH until spring 2015. INSERT - map of UH campuses to be sent by UHCC In addition, the College has met community needs with the offering of courses at satellite sites at Waimea in the South Kohala District, Honoka‘a in the Hāmākua District, Pāhoa and Kea‘au in the Puna District, and Pahala in the Kaʻū District. Accreditation Status and Licensure Hawai‘i CC is fully accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges, Accrediting Commission for Community and Junior Colleges (ACCJC). Hawai‘i CC’s first college accreditation as a separate institution was granted in 1995. Subsequent accreditation was granted in 2001, 2007, and again in 2013 with the provision that a follow-up report be filed. Since the

Lanikaula Street Hilo, HI 96720 June 2010 Bus Stop Location Project for County of Hawaii Mass Transit Agency Inventory and Initial Screening Report Introduction County of Hawaii Mass Transit Agency Bus Stop Location Project Inventory and Initial Screening Report I. Introduction The County of Hawaii Mass Transit Agency (MTA) currently operates on a flagstop basis. With increased usage and traffic, MTA is moving into a designated bus stop program. SSFM International, Inc. (SSFM) was contracted to identify locations for bus stops islandwide and to determine if locations warrant an official bus stop listed in the Hawaii County Code. Official bus stops will need to be Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliant. This Inventory and Initial Screening Report constitutes the deliverable for Task One of the work program for this study. Based on field work conducted and meetings held with bus drivers, SSFM developed a complete inventory of bus stops islandwide. The inventory, consisting of approximately 575 stops, was then divided into priority and non-priority stops for the remainder of the work tasks in this study. Priority stops, totaling approximately 100 stops, were recommended based on surrounding land use, frequency, and local knowledge. The list of priority stops is shown in (Appendix 1). These stops handle the bulk of the ridership and are in close vicinity to schools, resorts, medical facilities, and urban centers.

  • June 2006 Hawaii Public High School Graduates
    JUNE 2008 HAWAI‘I PUBLIC HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATES ENROLLED IN REMEDIAL AND/OR DEVELOPMENTAL CLASSES AT THE UNIVERSITY OF HAWAI‘I COMMUNITY COLLEGES IN FALL 2008 Institutional Research Office University of Hawai‘i April 2009 File Reference: Management and Planning Support Folder, Courses Reports available online at: http://www.hawaii.edu/iro/ June 2008 Hawaii Public High School Graduates Enrolled in Remedial and/or Developmental Classes at the University of Hawai‘i Community Colleges in Fall 2008 The percentage of graduates enrolled in remedial/developmental English and Math courses can be examined in two ways. The first is by the number of registrations in remedial/developmental English and Math courses, which denotes the volume of classes taken by students. However, because this is a registration count, a student registered in a two remedial English courses is counted twice. The counts and the percentages upon which the counts are based, will be inflated by such multiple registrations, so though the registration counts are available and displayed in the tables, they are not the focus of this analysis. The second method of analysis is by an unduplicated headcount1 of those in remedial/developmental English or Math courses, regardless of the number of classes they are taking. Since some students take more than one English class and more than one Math class, especially at the remedial level, the headcount method is the preferable way to measure the percentage of high school graduates enrolled in remedial or developmental classes, since it avoids multiple counting. Thus, the focus of this analysis is the headcount of students enrolled remedial or developmental classes, or more specifically, the headcount of Hawaii public high school graduates enrolled in remedial/developmental classes at the University of Hawaii community colleges.

  • Additional Big Island Outreach Programs for TMT Consideration
    EDUCATIONAL INITIATIVES & OUTREACH TMT supports a number of educational initiatives to help prepare Hawaii Island students for science and technology jobs. THE HAWAII ISLAND NEW KNOWLEDGE (THINK) FUND The Thirty Meter Telescope initiated the formation of THINK Fund in 2008 by asking a group of community volunteers to outline the mission, vision, purpose and implementation strategy of an education fund benefitting Hawaii Island students. The Organizing Committee that developed TMT's THINK Fund structure was comprised of Hawaii Island residents. TMT officially launched the THINK Fund in October 2014 to better prepare Hawaii Island students to master STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) and to become the workforce for higher paying science and technology jobs in Hawaii's 21stcentury economy. TMT's THINK Fund initiative benefits Hawaii Island students pursuing STEM endeavors with an annual contribution of $1 million over its existing 19-year Maunakea sublease with the University of Hawaii-Hilo. Two Hawaii foundations, Hawaii Community Foundation (HCF) and Pauahi Foundation, were selected by TMT to administer THINK Fund distribution in scholarship and grant making platforms. TMT's annual $1 million contribution allocates $750,000 to THINK Fund at the Hawaii Community Foundation and $250,000 to THINK Fund at the Pauahi Foundation. The foundations will administer their respective THINK Funds independently and will have autonomy in administering grant funds, determining scholarship recipients, and the selection and governance of Advisory

Nishimoto Dissertation Committee: Eileen H Tamura, Chairperson Gay Garland Reed Joarme E. Cooper Donna Grace Paul F. Hooper © 2002, Warren S, Nishimoto III To Michi Kodama-Nishimoto IV ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I am greatly indebted to many individuals, without whose help and support I could not have researched and written this study. A heartfelt mahalo goes to the members of my dissertation committee, chair Eileen Tamura, Gay Garland Reed, Joanne Cooper, Donna Grace and Paul Hooper, who willingly gave a great deal of their time and expertise to help me make sense out of my often disjointed ideas. In addition, I would like to acknowledge the following scholars at the University of Hawai'i who provided me with intellectual stimulation as both mentors and colleagues as I progressed in my doctoral studies: Linda Menton, Royal Fruehling, David Ericson, Allen Awaya, Yoshimitsu Takei, Edward Beauchamp, Ronald Heck, Craig Howes, Glen Grant, William Chapman, and Vicky Rosser. My many colleagues, past and present, at the University of Hawai'i's Center for Oral History, especially Cynthia Oshiro, Holly Yamada, and Chad Taniguchi, deserve special mention for helping me deal with the many complicated twists and turns associated with oral history research and interviewing.
