“Hoʻomaikaʻi ʻana (Congratulations) to our 撸sir视频uates from all 10 campuses! May you carry the spirit of resilience and the warmth of aloha on your journey ahead. We extend our heartfelt gratitude for your unwavering dedication!”

Louise Pagotto’s story is one of following her heart, even when the path takes unexpected turns. Originally dreaming of becoming a veterinarian, Pagotto鈥檚’s love for her home in 撸sir视频ʻi led her to change her plans when she discovered there was no veterinary school in the islands.

Arriving in 撸sir视频ʻi from Montreal, Canada in 1980, Pagotto pursued studies in linguistics at University of 撸sir视频ʻi at Mānoa, eventually earning her doctorate in 1987.

Her career took her on a fulfilling journey through the 撸sir视频 System, from teaching English at Leeward Community College to serving in various roles as an administrator at Kapiʻolani Community College, where she retired as chancellor in 2022.

But retirement didn’t mean slowing down for Pagotto. Inspired by her cat’s health struggles and her desire to be a volunteer at the Honolulu Zoo, she found a new calling: enrolling in the veterinary technology program at Windward Community College.

Describing the program as “rigorous and humbling,” Pagotto embraced the challenge with determination. Her goal? To excel and earn her certificate of achievement, which she received in May.

Drawing on her experience as an educator, Pagotto found herself on a different side of the classroom, learning from dedicated faculty who instilled in her values of integrity and professionalism within a medical context. “The depth of knowledge of technical skills taught is at a high level,” she said.

Yet, it was the support of her fellow classmates that truly made a difference. Despite initial challenges, Pagotto’s perseverance and newfound skills left her feeling empowered and accomplished.

Reflecting on her journey, Pagotto said, “I can do it!!” Her appreciation for the complexities of physiology and medical science has deepened, reminding her that there’s always more to learn.

“It’s not just about kittens and puppies; it’s about embracing the medical aspect with discipline and dedication,” said Pagotto.

As she prepares to embark on this new chapter, Pagotto encourages others to explore the veterinary technology program at Windward CC, emphasizing its selectivity and the supportive community it offers.

Pagotto’s story is a testament to the power of passion and resilience, reminding us that sometimes the most fulfilling journeys are the ones we never expected to take.

Carina Chernisky

Carina Chernisky is a 撸sir视频 West Oʻahu public services librarian who uses a variety of different methods and formats to foster a collaborative learning environment that ensures student success. She considers the library her “classroom,” which is more dynamic and adaptable than a traditional classroom environment. She cultivates it to be a safe in-person and virtual haven where individuals can go to seek help for research issues, participate in engaging events and learn critical-thinking skills.

Chernisky offers a variety of synchronous and asynchronous information literacy workshops that help 撸sir视频 become self-directed learners who can access information, evaluate sources, and engage in lifelong learning in and beyond the confines of the classroom.

“Carina is always so informative and relates the topic of the workshop to relevant news of the week. It’s always a pleasure to attend her workshops,” said a student.In addition to her primary reference and instructional duties, Chernisky has served as the on-site library project manager/co-manager for traveling exhibitions, and is a champion of open educational resources at 撸sir视频 West Oʻahu and throughout the 撸sir视频 System.”

Sothy Eng

Sothy Eng is an associate professor of human development and family studies in the 撸sir视频 Mānoa College of Tropical Agriculture and Human Resources. Eng observed from his required office visits with 撸sir视频 how their education fits into their complex lives. From that, he enhanced his course requirements, and gained a heightened sense of empathy toward 撸sir视频 and the families and communities from which they came.

The insights of educator Paulo Freire resonate with Eng: “The teacher is no longer merely the one-who-teaches but who is himself taught in dialogue with the 撸sir视频, who in turn while being taught, also teach鈥ointly responsible for a process in which we all grow.”

A student said, “Professor Eng and the 撸sir视频 made it such an amazing class, a welcoming space” and “Little did I know his class would spark my future career goals of increasing the community鈥檚 access to food security and sovereignty.”

Colleagues praise him for inspiring 撸sir视频 to be collaborative, creative and respectful, and consider him “a role model among his peers, ceaselessly energetic, professionally dynamic, and abundant in his aloha.”

Kerri Inglis

Kerri Inglis is a professor of history in 撸sir视频 Hilo鈥檚 College of Arts and Sciences and specializes in research and teaching in the history of health, disease and medicine, especially as it pertains to 撸sir视频ʻi and the Pacific, within a global context.

Affectionately known as “Kumu Kai” to her 撸sir视频, Inglis is celebrated not only for her scholarly contributions but also for her profound impact on education. According to 撸sir视频uate student David Freund, her endeavors have not only advanced her own professional growth but have also enriched the educational journey of her 撸sir视频, who have actively participated in her projects.

Freund said Inglis “goes beyond the rote delivery of information, striving to instill a deep understanding of concepts and principles, enabling 撸sir视频 not only to acquire information and skills but also to think critically and apply their knowledge effectively.”

Kristiana Kahakauwila

Kristiana Kahakauwila is an associate professor of English in the 撸sir视频 Mānoa College of Arts, Languages & Letters. For Kahakauwila, a teaching philosophy rooted in choice is one rooted in kuleana鈥攊n responsibility, privilege and a sense of ownership.

Her teaching leans into analysis of how a work is shaped, and from where it takes its inspiration in the context of race, gender, sexuality, ability, Indigeneity and other lived experiences. Her 撸sir视频 express an experience of being treated not “only as 撸sir视频 but as writers and readers. She gives us a chance to grow and progress, first and foremost, as artists.”

Kahakauwila鈥檚 innovative pedagogical technique includes asking 撸sir视频 to take up the mantle of instructor at least once each term. A former 撸sir视频uate student describes Kahakauwila as a “devoted, kind and brilliant teacher who challenged 撸sir视频 in a way that was joyful and meaningful.”

Kamaka recognizes learning as experiential and occurring in diverse settings and unexpected contexts. In her experience, learning is balanced between mind, body and spirit at the micro level, and between communities/families, environment and spiritual sources of strength at the macro level. She said that the “most important point is for 撸sir视频 who are future physicians to be able to communicate with patients with our hearts and our naʻau (intuition).”

A student called Kamaka “a big part of my journey in influencing the way I see myself, my relationship to the community and to my profession.”

Jenny Kelly

Through encouraging an active, experiential approach to classroom learning, Okamura embodies the principle of Ma ka hana ka ʻike (in doing, one learns). He penned a quote that he often shares with his 撸sir视频, “To be something you have never been, you have to do things you have never done.” He focuses on getting 撸sir视频 to do different things via activity-based learning everyday and building pilina (relationships) with each other, the course content and the instructor.

“After the pandemic, I had no motivation to attend any in-person classes that weren鈥檛 specifically related to my major,” said a student. “On my first day of speech class, I was so nervous. However, after experiencing Speech 151 with Mr. Okamura, my outlook changed. I felt motivated for the first time in a long time and actually had faith that I would pass the class and have fun while doing it.”

A 撸sir视频uate student said Reyes was not only an “expert on qualitative research, but genuinely invested in fostering a collective and communal learning environment.”

A student said, “She turned my PhD experience from black and white into color.”

Stephanie Teves

Stephanie Teves is an associate professor in the department of women, gender and sexuality studies in the 撸sir视频 Mānoa College of Social Sciences. Teves connects with local 撸sir视频 through a shared sense of place and welcomes 撸sir视频 new to 撸sir视频ʻi by applauding their sense of adventure.

“Under her guidance, I became a haumāna (student) who did not simply complete coursework but became enthralled with researching and received a scholarship for a project with Dr. Teves as my project mentor,” said a student.

Teves encourages 撸sir视频 to learn from one another and explore who they are in a global sense. Her teaching has included the development of an under撸sir视频uate certificate in queer studies.

Another student said, “All of her 撸sir视频 were treated with utmost respect and given the space to learn enthusiastically, while being sensitive to the differences that exist among us.”

The University of 撸sir视频ʻi completed a series of public county forums to gather feedback that will help inform the search for next president of the 10-campus 撸sir视频 System, the state鈥檚 sole provider of public higher education.

Approximately 85 people attended the six forums in person, and roughly 480 participated via Zoom. The forums, which took place on Oʻahu, Maui, Kauaʻi and 撸sir视频ʻi Island and finished on May 7, were scheduled by the 撸sir视频 Board of Regents (BOR) as part of the listening phase of the search process. A public survey completed in February received nearly 2,000 responses.

“We plan to take all of the feedback from the forums and the listening sessions and try to incorporate it into the presidential profile that’s going to go out to essentially search for candidates to apply,” said Erin Centeio, co-chair of the presidential search advisory group (PSAG).

Centeio said that the PSAG plans to incorporate all the feedback from the forums and the surveys into a presidential profile that will be presented to the BOR at their meeting on May 16.

“Beyond the profile, these listening sessions are going to help us understand who the community wants for a next president,” said Centeio. “As we look at applicants and do first round interviews, we will be looking to these forums as well as everything that’s been submitted to be able to help guide us in who the next president should be.”

The board announced at its March 21 meeting that it plans to name finalists in September and announce the next president in October. The new president will begin in January 2025 and will succeed David Lassner, who announced in September 2023 that he will retire by December 2024.

“The selection of the next president will likely be the single most important decision made by this board and we are committed to doing it thoroughly in an inclusive and transparent manner,” said BOR Chair Gabriel Lee in a previous BOR meeting.

The PSAG is made up of 撸sir视频 stakeholders and will make candidate recommendations to the search committee, which consists of all 11 regents. WittKieffer, a Chicago-based firm, was hired to assist in the search and will work with the BOR to develop the position description and profile of an ideal president and then recruit candidates.
