Skip to content

51ÂÒÂ×»»ÆÞ?i Papa O Ke Ao, comprised of representatives of each campus, is a presidential appointed work committee tasked with developing, implementing and assessing strategic actions to make the University of 51ÂÒÂ×»»ÆÞ?i a leader in indigenous education. The phrase simply means 51ÂÒÂ×»»ÆÞ?i Foundations of Enlightenment/Knowledge. The deeper application of this name is cosmogonic, for in the name is Papah¨¡naumoku (Papa) and W¨¡kea (reflected in his Ao form), original parents of 51ÂÒÂ×»»ÆÞ?i Consciousness.
