GOOD MORNING HAWAII!
Congratulations Graduates!
I can’t believe I got my UH degree sixty years ago!
Congratulations to all the UH graduates. Thanks for the memories
UH degree 11 years ago
good morning st, pono, counselor, and tsaikos.
good morning boya jr
Congrats graduates!!! Life is short. You’ve made this alum proud.
Congrats! C/o 2014. Now off the subject is UH going to look at former BYU and Kansas QB Jake Heaps to transfer. If he grad this semester he has one year left. I know he wasn’t successful in his college career so far but he has experience playing big 12 teams and could end up being how Schroeder was in his final year. Schroeder just needed D1 experience and it showed late in the season. Chow needs experience now to have a chance to win or he will be out at the end of the season.
Well done–it’s all about the paper!
Great Morning All!
Bravo! Bravo! Bravo! to all the Graduates.
Good morning Tsaikos!
Congrats to the all the graduates, especially Aniefre Etim-Thomas, who majored in Econ and took 21 credits in the Fall in order to graduate on time.
I got my degree 31 years ago.
All of my professors are now memorial scholarships.
I got my degrees at UH, and a couple more in the states, but I got my “education” at halawa housing! Whassup sole??!

33 years ago I walked on the grass by Kuykendall Hall receiving my bachelor of science degree from the University Of Hawaii at Manoa. PROUDEST moment of my life but little did I knew what the future was awaiting for me going back to my home land Los Angleles, California. Well through hard work, perseverance, determination too SUCCEED I have accomplish by becoming an outstanding professional male educator developing disadvantage children in the South Central area where they have excelled academically, socially and becoming productive citizens in their communities. THOUSANDS of inner city young people who I have mentored, counseled and academically advised since 1992. Received many awards and acknowledgements from various corporations, organizations and professional sports franchises here in Los Angeles. 2003 Nomination Finalist University Of Hawaii Distinguish Alumnus Award, FIRST ever mainland athlete to bestowed this honor. Humbled and appreciative to the many professors, supporters and professional colleagues who has helped and guided me through this WONDERFUL journey.

Nice speech by Daniel Dae-Kim at the graduation. SSC was pack to capacity. Lost 5 pounds waiting in the hot sun at the softball stadium for the honored graduate to appear. Nice day, though.

Best wishes to all the “student athletes” at UH – Manoa!
May your futures be bright and successful!

Tsai, soccer girls are Nana and Shimabukuro with coach Bud. “Storm” Nana…
I remember when the UH commencement ceremony was in the late afternoon around 5:30 pm. Gave everyone time to get home for the family graduation party dinner and was still able to slip out around 10:00 pm to meet my fellow grads for the rest of the night… 🙂
…and for those without family here, dinner and party with their friends started ASAP.
Now, you cool off from the sun and go out to… ?
Next year UH should hold their graduation in the on-campus football stadium where everyone can get a………….Oh, never mind, disregard.

as i read and pick up on the subliminal messages…i would to know “who” threw him under the bus.
sounds like a non-academic issue thats preventing him from receiving his degree.
Good evening and congratulations current collegiate graduates and high school graduans!
Whoo-hoo!!!
Oops, that’s graduands.
#14…don’t forget to mention “on line’ classes
What is the BJ revelation on the NCAA Investigation on KHON news? Sounds like we better prepare for the worse.
Looks like Kolton went 2 for 4 with a stolen base.
NCAA grants waiver so homeless football recruit can go on scholarship early.

Congrats to all the grads! I had Ben Dew in my ENG 100 class when he was a freshman. He and Blake Muir were great students. And they had great attendance thanks to the watchdogs in the athletic department.
A-House sir…it was not I that made the bet with al. Like al, if I do bet, I tend to go in positive outcome direction for UH.
Really happy for a guy like Desmond Dean…someone who really stuck it out, and comes away with the all impotant college degree. Congrats to all student athlete grads…it’s truly a remarkable accomplishment!
Congratulations again.

Good job all who graduated today!
#48 BOWWAR:
“Amid current media speculation, the University of Hawai’i at Manoa Department of Athletics acknowledges that there is an ongoing NCAA investigation of potential rules violations. As a member institution of the NCAA, we have an obligation to monitor and control our athletics program, a duty to report all instances of noncompliance with NCAA rules and cooperate fully with and assist the NCAA enforcement staff. Our responsibility also requires that our institutional representatives and student–athletes protect the integrity of the investigation. Under NCAA enforcement rules, a failure to cooperate could lead to an independent allegation and/or be considered by the NCAA as a factor when determining potential penalties.
In light of the ongoing investigation and our obligation to state and Federal laws, we are not able to discuss or share information about the investigation. Our Department considers any alleged violation of NCAA rules to be a serious matter and we have, and will continue to, fully cooperate with the NCAA staff in this matter.”
We can always speculate – either that or some subliminal message will be found in the release. 🙂
Happy Birthday Jason !
Congrats to all UH graduates past and present. Going to UH was the best decision of my life.
Guud Morning Tsaikos…bootiful day.
Congratulations to all the graduates!…dat palapala will come in handy.
troubling that “new violations” have been uncovered..per Jahmai. some boosters involved also…???
..then again, there’s violations at EVERY college athletic program. Rules for boosters are kind of nutz, but necessary.
#54,
Add Jordan Loeffler too.
