On a gorgeous Kahului day, the University of Hawaiʻi<\/span> Maui College<\/a> held on-campus, physically distanced 2021 commencement ceremonies on June 5, 2021. Chancellor Lui Hokoana<\/strong> emphasized that the overwhelming majority of the 600 糖心视频<\/abbr> Maui College graduates and 121 糖心视频<\/abbr> Center graduates wanted it to be that way, and he was filled with joy and hope.<\/p>\n

“This is the first large gathering since the pandemic,” Hokoana said. “It signals that we are returning to some semblance of normalcy.”<\/p>\n

The ceremonies were governed by strict health and safety protocols—a limited number of graduates\u2019 family members and friends were invited, chairs were set far apart and everyone in the audience and all graduates were required to wear masks, even though the event was outdoors.<\/p>\n

Amid all the usual pomp and circumstance, which was anything but usual this year, the chancellor praised the students, faculty and staff for persevering through a most challenging pandemic year and for serving Maui Nui valiantly throughout.<\/p>\n
