WHEREAS Maui has land and space to build a 4 year university at Maui Community college
WHEREAS the U of Hawai`i campus in Manoa is overly crowded and does not have enough housing to accommodate it's students.
WHEREAS it is extremely costly for our children to attend college out of state and the money could be spent in Hawai`i instead.
WHEREAS there is a need to prepare our youth for future employment in our state instead of recruiting people from the mainland.
WHEREAS students from all over the world could come to Maui to study year round or during the summer.
THEREFORE the Democratic Party wants to encourage our legislators and the U of H board to expand our community college to a full 4 year university so our children will have the same advantages as other children who attend UH at Manoa and Hilo. |
