Campuses to shut down over break
The University of Hawaii’s 10 campuses will be reducing or suspending operations on non-instructional days from Tuesday through Friday. The reduction in operations is in support of continuing efforts to reduce energy consumption and operating costs.
All offices will be closed on Monday in observance of Prince Kuhio Day, a state holiday.
Certain critical or time sensitive functions or specialized facilities such as research laboratories may continue to operate. Athletic events at UH-Manoa and UH-Hilo will also be held as scheduled.
