Congratulations to the University of Hawaii and its medical school for bringing in so much money to our state through its research. Under the leadership of David Lassner much has been accomplished. The next president should strive to do as well while maintaining the university’s independence from the Legislature.
I hope the UH Board of Regents is strong enough to resist political interference. Please remember Gov. John Burns’ caution about protecting UH from the Legislature, especially from that triumvirate.
