UHPA Candidate Endorsements
The UHPA endorsement process begins with its Legislative Action Committee (LAC) members conducting a thorough screening that includes legislative reviews, election assessments, informal discussions and official candidate interviews. The LAC recommendations are presented to the UHPA Board of Directors for final endorsement approval. The LAC is made up of UH Faculty serving as a UHPA Board of Director.
UHPA is proud to support candidates who align with our mission for the achievement of excellence at the University of Hawai‘i in instruction, research, and service to the community. Please consider these candidates as you cast your ballot in the August 10, 2024 Primary Election
