A group of 2023 University of Â鶹´«Ã½<\/span> M\u0101noa Award winners were honored on September 23 during the UH<\/abbr> football game against New Mexico State at the Clarence T.C. Ching Athletics Complex. They came onto the field after the first quarter and received a round of applause from the more than 10,000 fans in attendance.<\/p>\n

“It is something I will never forget and am so glad my family was there to be a part of it,” said Ken Chambers, an Institute for Astronomy<\/a> astronomer who received the Board of Regents Medal for Excellence in Research<\/a>. “It was wonderful to have the Â鶹´«Ã½ohana take a moment during a hard fought game to shout out support for teaching and research.”<\/p>\n

“It is amazing to be here with such an incredible group of people, just being surrounded by all of the students and fans,” said Ray. “It is just a wonderful experience.”<\/p>\n

“And best of all, the Rainbow Warriors got the win at the last moment,” added Chambers.<\/p>\n

The award is given annually to faculty, staff, and students for excellence in teaching, research and service.<\/p>\n

“This is an amazing group of outstanding faculty, staff and students and it was wonderful to be able to honor them in front of thousands of UH<\/abbr> fans,” said UH<\/abbr> President David Lassner, who escorted the group onto the field to personally congratulate them. “UH<\/abbr> M\u0101noa is one of the best universities in the world and it’s because of individuals like these going above and beyond each and every day.”<\/p>\n

Of the 30 award recipients, seven were able to attend: Richard C. Chen, Monica C. LaBriola, Manca Sustarsic, Kevin Nute, Wendy Kawabata, Chambers and Ray. <\/p>\n

The annual awards ceremony<\/a> hosted by Lassner and UH<\/abbr> M\u0101noa Provost Michael Bruno was held on May 1, at Kennedy Theatre. <\/p>\n
