Online Services for 'Ohana
‘Ohana is the Hawaiian word for "family". At the University of Hawaii, ‘Ohana refers to the the extended Âé¶¹´«Ã½Community consisting of alumni, former faculty or staff, and former University department affiliates who were assigned a Âé¶¹´«Ã½Username but no longer have an active affiliation with the University. The initial ITS services available to ‘Ohana include:
- Password Administration -- Password administration includes management of your secret questions and answer. You can fall back on these if they are wisely chosen to allow you to recover from losing/forgetting your password.
- Google@Âé¶¹´«Ã½Services (Gmail, Calendar, Drive, Sites, Groups) -- You can continue to access Google@UH, even after your active association with the University has ended. This includes the continued availability of all data stored in Google@Âé¶¹´«Ã½services, such as email messages and folders in Google@Âé¶¹´«Ã½Gmail, data in Google@Âé¶¹´«Ã½Drive, and sites in Google@Âé¶¹´«Ã½Sites. POP and IMAP access to Google@Âé¶¹´«Ã½Gmail will also continue.
- STAR -- The University STAR academic advising service allows most alumni to create information transcripts. Note that for official transcripts you still must contact the Registrar's Office.
- SECE (only for students who earned a degree from UH) -- The Student Employment website now lists full-time jobs, which are available to recent Âé¶¹´«Ã½graduates.
- MyÂé¶¹´«Ã½-- This academic portal contains links to many Âé¶¹´«Ã½online services.
‘Ohana enrollment must be renewed annually. You will be sent a series of email reminders in advance of the annual renewal date. Regretfully, should you not renew on time, we will be unable to reestablish your 'Ohana credentials (username and password) and associated services. Any data associated with your Âé¶¹´«Ã½Username that you manage/maintain yourself, including email, contacts, documents, and websites, will no longer be available.
Furthermore, 'Ohana users who exceed their Google@Âé¶¹´«Ã½quota (7.5GB) may have their Âé¶¹´«Ã½Usernames disabled. This will result in the loss of access to associated online services for 'Ohana and the loss of all data stored within their Google@Âé¶¹´«Ã½account (including emails stored in Gmail, documents stored in Drive, calendar and contact data, etc.). See /askus/1891 for more information on the Google@Âé¶¹´«Ã½storage policy for 'Ohana and for help with managing your storage.
ITS reminds our ‘Ohana users that continued access to Âé¶¹´«Ã½Usernames and associated services are not an entitlement and are provided as a privilege. All services available via the Âé¶¹´«Ã½Username are still governed by applicable Âé¶¹´«Ã½policies and State laws, including Âé¶¹´«Ã½Executive Policy E2.210 and Chapter 708, Hawaii Revised Statutes.
Former faculty, staff, and affiliates are further reminded that, pursuant to EP 2.210 Section III.E., your former employing unit/department can exercise authority over your Âé¶¹´«Ã½Username and can request to have access to your Âé¶¹´«Ã½Username revoked or have departmental data transferred from the account.
