Hawaii’s general election is coming up quickly on November 6. Low voter turnout has continued to be a challenge for our state, but UHPA and Honolulu Civil Beat have teamed up and come up with something new and exciting.
Yesterday, a letter from Jim Donovan’s attorney was released which casts doubts on the actions taken by the UH President and Board of Regents and the completeness of the investigation. The issues raised in the letter that the UH failure resides within the offices of General Counsel Darolyn Lendio and VP-Adminstration Howard Todo, has not been addressed adequately. UHPA is very concerned that the decisions made by President Greenwood and the Board of Regents, including the transfer of Mr. Donovan to another job will encourage legislative scrutiny of all UH funding creating significant uncertainty for our students and faculty. This situation is a grave distraction illustrating a failure to assert responsibility and leadership at the highest levels at UH.
UHPA president Adrienne Valdez has notified both Representative Mazie Hirono and Councilwoman Tulsi Gabbard of the UHPA endorsement for the general election.
