The newly appointed University of Hawaii-Manoa chancellor told a campus crowd yesterday that she will collaborate with the university community to identify priorities and accomplish goals.
“The goals and values of this university, which match my own, are really why I’m here today,” said Virginia Hinshaw, who was introduced at a Bachman Hall news conference attended by about 70 Manoa administrators, faculty and students. “Clearly this university is highly accomplished in many areas, particularly in research, but obviously aspires to be among the most impressive, highly respected universities. Working with folks here to make that aspiration a reality is tremendously exciting to me.”
