Pezzuto<\/strong>. &ldquo;We are fully accredited. We started graduate programs, residencies. We are spread throughout the state on every neighbor island. And we really are <span aria-label=\"Hawaii\">Â鶹´«Ã½<\/span>&#8217;s only College of Pharmacy. I think we represent the state very well.&rdquo; <\/p>\n<h2><span aria-label=\"Hawaii\">Â鶹´«Ã½<\/span>&#8217;s College of Pharmacy<\/h2>\n<p>There are about 375 students enrolled in the college and about half of them are from <span aria-label=\"Hawaii\">Â鶹´«Ã½<\/span>, like Hilo&#8217;s <strong>Moani Hagiwara<\/strong>, who took part in the annual White Coat ceremony, a rite of passage for first year students. <\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;I kind of got a little chicken skin,&rdquo; said Hagiwara after the ceremony. &ldquo;A chill went through my body. I grew up here on this island too so it is a little bit of home pride as well. It&#8217;s exciting to have it here especially.&rdquo; <\/p>\n<p>Local students like Hagiwara can now stay home to pursue an education in pharmacy. It&#8217;s what attracted <b>Davis Hanai<\/b>, a second year pharmacy student, to the program. <\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;I would like to work in <span aria-label=\"Hawaii\">Â鶹´«Ã½<\/span> and I feel like if you want to train with the population you are going to work with, that&#8217;s a big deal to have the pharmacy school here in <span aria-label=\"Hawaii\">Â鶹´«Ã½<\/span>,&rdquo; said Hanai. <\/p>\n<p>The college and a lot of hard work is also a prescription for personal success. About 80 percent of the 2011 graduates found jobs or a paid residency. The average salary for graduates working full time $117,000 a year. <\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;You can go into retail, into hospital, you can go into industry, you can go into more policy making so there is a lot of choices and opportunities for students who want to make a difference,&rdquo; said Hanai. <\/p>\n<p>The college is also an economic engine according to an independent study by economist David Hammes, which has shown the <abbr>UH<\/abbr> Hilo College of Pharmacy contributes more than $50 million dollars a year to the economy of <span aria-label=\"Hawaii\">Â鶹´«Ã½<\/span>. There are faculty on <span aria-label=\"Oahu\">O&#699;ahu<\/span>, Maui and <span aria-label=\"Kauai\">Kaua&#699;i<\/span>, with students and residents placed in hospitals throughout the state. It was even named one of the top five new pharmacy schools in the nation by <em>US News and World Report<\/em>. <\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Over the years, we have even exceeded even our own expectations,&rdquo; said Pezzuto. <\/p>\n<p>The school&#8217;s impact reaches far beyond <span aria-label=\"Hawaii\">Â鶹´«Ã½<\/span>. Besides being the only College of Pharmacy in the state, it&#8217;s the only one in the Pacific region. The College of Pharmacy extends its reach by sending students to conduct practical experience, called rotations, through a memo of understanding to Guam, Alaska and American Samoa. The agreement has encouraged students such as <strong>Francine Amoa<\/strong> to come to <abbr>UH<\/abbr> Hilo from American Samoa, which only has one pharmacist on the whole island. <\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;I personally think that having a college of pharmacy, and the only college of pharmacy in the Pacific rim, is a huge importance, just because there isn&#8217;t another institution for Pacific islanders like me to go and get an education and go back and serve our community,&rdquo; said Amoa. <\/p>\n<h2>The college looks to the future<\/h2>\n<p>The school has always had one ambitious goal: to be a top-rated college. It is on its way, but there is one more big thing that has to be accomplished before that goal can be reached. <\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s one location for the entire college. Right now, the school is spread out over five different locations. Classrooms are in a temporary facility on the outskirts of campus. The administration is housed in a borrowed county building a few miles away that was built in 1920. The research labs are seven miles out of Hilo in antiquated buildings constructed in the &#8217;60s. <\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;We really have to bring all of our people together,&rdquo; said Pezzuto. &ldquo;We have to ground our research programs. We have to strengthen our clinical programs. And there is no way we can really effectively accomplish that without a permanent building.&rdquo; <\/p>\n<p><abbr>UH<\/abbr> Hilo Assistant Professor <strong>Dana Koomoa-Lange<\/strong>, a researcher at the college strongly agrees. <\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;To have that community together where we can really communicate on an everyday basis and have more research seminars and more interaction with the students as well,&rdquo; said Koomoa-Lange. &ldquo;I think that will be really instrumental in bringing the college of pharmacy forward into the future.&rdquo; <\/p>\n<p>The future is now. The building design is complete and the facility site has been selected. Now it is just a question of funding. The permanent college of pharmacy building is the University of Hawai&#8217;i&#8217;s top funding priority. Governor Abercrombie is including funding in the executive budget, according to Pezzuto. <\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;We have the site. It is shovel ready. It&#8217;s ready to go, so as soon as we secure the funding, we can have a groundbreaking and secure the future of the college, secure the future of pharmacy in the state and really help us do what we have the capability of doing,&rdquo; said Pezzuto. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The College of Pharmacy at the University of <span aria-label=\"Hawaii\">Â鶹´«Ã½<\/span> at Hilo has grown by leaps and bounds since it was founded in 2006.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[25,12],"tags":[52,165,50,14,56],"class_list":["post-12395","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-academic-news","category-video","tag-college-of-pharmacy","tag-health","tag-pharmacy","tag-uh-hilo","tag-video-2","entry","has-media"],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t<!-- All in One SEO 5.0.0.1 - aioseo.com -->\n\t<meta name=\"description\" content=\"The College of Pharmacy at the University of Hawaii at Hilo has grown by leaps and bounds since it was founded in 2006.\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"max-image-preview:large\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Â鶹´«Ã½News\"\/>\n\t<meta name=\"keywords\" content=\"college of pharmacy,uh hilo,university of hawaii at hilo,john pezzuto,dana koomoa-lange,daniel k. inouye college of pharmacy,health,pharmacy,video\" \/>\n\t<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/2012\/12\/06\/college-of-pharmacy-builds-on-success\/\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"generator\" content=\"All in One SEO (AIOSEO) 5.0.0.1\" \/>\n\t\t<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n\t\t<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"University of Hawai\u02bbi System News\" \/>\n\t\t<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"blog\" \/>\n\t\t<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"College of Pharmacy builds on successes | University of Hawai\u02bbi System News\" \/>\n\t\t<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The College of Pharmacy at the University of Hawaii at Hilo has grown by leaps and bounds since it was founded in 2006.\" \/>\n\t\t<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/2012\/12\/06\/college-of-pharmacy-builds-on-success\/\" \/>\n\t\t<meta property=\"fb:admins\" content=\"73513078098\" \/>\n\t\t<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/uh-hilo-pharmacy-thmb.jpg\" \/>\n\t\t<meta property=\"og:image:secure_url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/uh-hilo-pharmacy-thmb.jpg\" \/>\n\t\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"130\" \/>\n\t\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"130\" \/>\n\t\t<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary\" \/>\n\t\t<meta name=\"twitter:title\" content=\"College of Pharmacy builds on successes | University of Hawai\u02bbi System News\" \/>\n\t\t<meta name=\"twitter:description\" content=\"The College of Pharmacy at the University of Hawaii at Hilo has grown by leaps and bounds since it was founded in 2006.\" \/>\n\t\t<meta name=\"twitter:image\" content=\"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/uh-hilo-pharmacy-thmb.jpg\" \/>\n\t\t<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"aioseo-schema\">\n\t\t\t{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"Article\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.hawaii.edu\\\/news\\\/2012\\\/12\\\/06\\\/college-of-pharmacy-builds-on-success\\\/#article\",\"name\":\"College of Pharmacy builds on successes | University of Hawai\\u02bbi System News\",\"headline\":\"College of Pharmacy builds on success\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.hawaii.edu\\\/news\\\/author\\\/uh-news\\\/#author\"},\"publisher\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.hawaii.edu\\\/news\\\/#organization\"},\"image\":{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\"},\"datePublished\":\"2012-12-06T15:15:18-10:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2021-01-07T14:26:13-10:00\",\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"mainEntityOfPage\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.hawaii.edu\\\/news\\\/2012\\\/12\\\/06\\\/college-of-pharmacy-builds-on-success\\\/#webpage\"},\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.hawaii.edu\\\/news\\\/2012\\\/12\\\/06\\\/college-of-pharmacy-builds-on-success\\\/#webpage\"},\"articleSection\":\"Academic News, Videos, Daniel K.
