The effort to maintain individual disciplines within the three academic units in the face of softening enrollments and limited resources is less than ideal for tackling these challenges and for the exploration of established and new areas of inquiry for which the University of Hawai\u02bbi at M\u0101noa is uniquely placed to develop and support. The combined talents and resources of the three units, under a single College structure that promotes the liberal arts and new areas of interdisciplinarity (climate change throughout the Asia and Pacific and new media, to take two examples) can better maximize strategic hiring while retaining the core strengths of existing disciplines, provide more powerful academic underpinnings for extramural funding, strengthen graduate programs, and provide faculty with travel and research support (a combined operational budget allows for greater flexibility within it).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The existing structure of two Arts and Sciences (Arts &amp; Humanities, Languages, Linguistics and Literature) and one School (Pacific and [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"template":"","class_list":["post-764","issues","type-issues","status-publish","hentry","statuses-resolutions-motions0passed","years-2018-2019","years-2019-2020"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/uhmfs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/issues\/764","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/uhmfs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/issues"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/uhmfs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/issues"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/uhmfs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"version-history":[{"count":14,"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/uhmfs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/issues\/764\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1710,"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/uhmfs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/issues\/764\/revisions\/1710"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/uhmfs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=764"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
