Justin Smith | University Advancement | 14 September 2005 Dr. Debbie Hippolite Wright, a professor in the Department of Social Work, stressed the importance of following promptings to those in attendance at Thursday's university devotional at the Cannon Activities Center.
Born and raised in New Zealand, Dr. Wright's first visit to the campus came at the invitation of an older sister "to come to paradise," and "baby-sit her toddler" as well. Being an au pair was quite an eye-opening experience, she said, and she was more than ready to return home when the time came.
"I had no intention of ever returning to Hawaii," she exclaimed. "I had enough!"

Just in time for the 2005-06 school year, the university web team launched
BYU-Hawaii’s new web site late Tuesday night. The upgrade was just in time to welcome students as they begin their first day of classes Wednesday, August 31.
“The timing is great,” said Anthony Perez, senior designer for University Advancement. "In a visual way, this site reflects who we are, where we are from and where we are going. This will give our new students a fresh new start in understanding our identity."
Part of understanding that identity is becoming familiar with the three-campus BYU system—BYU in Provo, BYU-Idaho and BYU-Hawaii. Perez stated, "Now more than ever, the site shows that we’re a part of something bigger than ourselves, and that we’re linked with the mission of our sister institutions in unity and providing higher education."

The BYU-Hawaii President's Council named Dr. Yee Kong Peter Chan, assistant
professor of instructional design and development, its "teacher of
the year" at the August 26 ohana or family meeting of university
faculty and staff.
"This is always a difficult time, because so many of you who are not honored in this way deserve to be," said university President Eric B. Shumway in announcing Chan, a 1995 BYU-Hawaii information systems alumnus from China who went on to earn his doctorate at BYU in Provo and returned to his alma mater three years ago. He added that others who have previously received awards "could easily receive them again," but school policy limits the award to one time.
