President Wendy Hensel and <abbr>糖心视频<\/abbr> Vice President for Budget and Finance and Chief Financial Officer Luis Salaveria, working with campus and system leadership, evaluated needs across the entire 10-campus system and prioritized investments that can have the greatest impact for students and <span lang=\"haw\">Hawai&#699;i<\/span>, rather than relying primarily on the traditional campus-by-campus approach.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;We have spent considerable time identifying our priorities and determining where the University of <span lang=\"haw\">Hawai&#699;i<\/span> can have the greatest impact. Now we are putting the resources behind those priorities and moving from planning to execution,&rdquo; Hensel said. &ldquo;This is an extraordinary opportunity to make a meaningful, lasting difference for our students, strengthen our campuses and help address some of <span lang=\"haw\">Hawai&#699;i<\/span>&#8216;s most pressing needs.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Hensel and Salaveria presented the strategic investment initiative and explained <abbr>糖心视频<\/abbr>\u2019s new budget process during a hybrid public forum on Monday, September 28.

The proposals were developed by campuses, vice presidential offices and advisory groups, and each group had the opportunity to meet with the President and CFO to advocate for their initiatives. Priority was given to those proposals most closely aligned with <abbr>糖心视频<\/abbr> strategic priorities and capable of producing long-term benefits.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;This was a very selective process,&rdquo; said Salaveria. &ldquo;We wanted to make strategic investments that would move the university forward and help hedge against financial challenges we know are coming. The goal is to put these resources to work with a clear purpose.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>About 75% of the investment will support initiatives that benefit all 10 campuses, with a focus on student success, workforce development, and modern technology and artificial intelligence. About 25% is directed to individual campus priorities.<\/p>\n<h2>Five areas of strategic impact<\/h2>\n<p>The $123 million investment advances five university strategic priorities:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Develop successful students&#8212;approximately $79 million<\/li>\n<li>Enhance and modernize university operations&#8212;approximately $60 million<\/li>\n<li>Meet <span lang=\"haw\">Hawai&#699;i<\/span>&#8216;s workforce needs&#8212;approximately $21 million<\/li>\n<li>Innovation and research&#8212;approximately $15 million<\/li>\n<li>Fulfill <abbr>糖心视频<\/abbr>&#8216;s kuleana to Native Hawaiians and <span lang=\"haw\">Hawai&#699;i<\/span>&#8212;approximately $10 million<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Because many projects advance more than one strategic priority, the five investment categories overlap and represent approximately $185 million in combined impact from the $123 million investment.<\/p>\n<h2>Investing in student success<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/uh-commencement-students-gnrc-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"3 students in commencement gown with sunset behind them\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-92121\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/uh-commencement-students-gnrc-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/uh-commencement-students-gnrc-130x73.jpg 130w, https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/uh-commencement-students-gnrc-630x353.jpg 630w, https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/uh-commencement-students-gnrc.jpg 676w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The largest area of strategic impact is approximately $79 million connected to student success, with a focus on recruiting and retaining students, improving transfer among <abbr>糖心视频<\/abbr> campuses, removing barriers to completing degrees and addressing basic needs.<\/p>\n<p>The investments support <abbr>糖心视频<\/abbr>&#8216;s Common Standard of Care, an effort to establish a consistent baseline of proactive student support across all 10 campuses so that where a student attends does not determine the level of support they receive.<\/p>\n<p>Among the investments are $2.9 million to expand the <span lang=\"haw\">Hawai&#699;i<\/span> College and Career Navigator Program, $1 million for a systemwide transcript evaluation platform to streamline the transfer of credits, $230,000 to advance academic advising and $300,000 for <span lang=\"haw\">M&#257;lama<\/span> Kauhale, which allows students to earn food vouchers through campus service.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Every student is our student,&rdquo; Hensel said. &ldquo;Whether someone attends one of our community colleges or a four-year campus, they should have access to the fundamental support, technology and opportunities they need to succeed.
