A friendly reminder for student drivers from the Chancellor.
Friendly reminder about parking on public streets
Our campus shares the beautiful Mānoa area with the friendly, supportive communities of St. Louis, Makiki and Mānoa Valley—and we strive to be a good neighbor. So when parking on public streets, please follow all state and city laws and ordinances; arrive and depart quietly, respectfully and without littering; and continue to foster cordial relationships with the people you meet.
Students, faculty and staff are all ambassadors of UH Mānoa so each of us shares the responsibility of being a good neighbor. We all need to be respectful with regard to leaving our vehicles in surrounding neighborhoods. Thank you in advance for parking responsibly and with the utmost consideration.
Mahalo nui loa!
Chancellor Virginia S. Hinshaw
