UH "Manoa Experience"

By Mark Doyle

The University of Hawai'i at Manoa kicks off its first-ever campus-wide open house to showcase its programs to Oahu high school students from the 9th-12th grades and their parents starting at 8 a.m., Nov. 15, at the Stan Sheriff Center.

Billed as The Manoa Experience, the event has been planned as UH Manoa's premier on-campus academic event of the fall semester — a day of programs and free activities to exhibit all that the University has to offer students from academics to campus activities.

"This is a terrific opportunity for potential students to visit our campus and discover the many reasons they should consider Manoa as a 'first-choice' destination," said UH Manoa Chancellor Virginia S. Hinshaw.
