The Aloha Club is gearing up for an exciting academic year as we helped kick off our, “welcome back” at Fall 2022 Convocation.  It was so amazing to see staff and faculty members in person.  It brought back memories of Convocations of the past when we couldn’t wait to see each other, wear our goofy/sporty/fashionable hats, have some food, and drink some coffee – the good old days are back!  Mahalo nui loa to those of you who contributed dues!
