         THE UNIVERSITY OF HAWAII: "TO INFINITY AND BEYOND"

The purpose of this briefing is to highlight what the University of Hawaii
has accomplished with increased autonomy and current state funding.
Against this backdrop, the Committees will examine the University's
supplemental budget request and explore how the Legislature might help the
University in its roles as both an educational institution and an economic
catalyst.  University President Kenneth P. Mortimer will be the primary
speaker before the Committees.

If you require special assistance or auxiliary aids or services to
participate in the public hearing process (i.e., sign language interpreter,
wheelchair accessibility, or parking designated for the disabled), please
contact the committee clerk 24 hours prior to the hearing so arrangements
can be made.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION, PLEASE CALL THE COMMITTEE CLERK AT 586-6800.
