Cynthia Reeves<\/strong> has begun her duties as Maui County administrator for the University of Â鶹´«Ã½<\/span> at Mānoa’s College of Tropical Agriculture and Human Resources<\/a> (CTAHR<\/abbr>).

“Maui County Cooperative Extension has a reputation for excellence in providing science-based outreach and education on a variety of agricultural and human science issues throughout the county,” said Reeves. “My priorities for Maui County are to build on that reputation for excellence by expanding opportunities for faculty research and use of our research facilities, to continue our focus of efforts on issues of local concern and need, and to work toward enhancing the funding base for research, education and extension programs throughout Maui County by pursuing appropriate funding opportunities and by collaborating with staff and faculty in these endeavors.”<\/p>\n
