REQUESTING THE BOARD OF REGENTS OF THE UNIVERSITY OF HAWAII TO REVIEW AND CLARIFY THE ROLES, RESPONSIBILITIES, AND FUNCTIONS OF THE UNIVERSITY OF HAWAII SYSTEM IN RELATION TO THE RESPONSIBILITIES OF INDIVIDUAL CAMPUSES.

This House Resolution asks the University of Hawaii Board of Regents to review and clarify how the university system and individual campuses define their roles and responsibilities. The request stems from a need for better coordination among campuses and follows a recommendation from an external study on higher education management. The Board of Regents is asked to submit a report with findings and recommendations to the Legislature by early 2027. This is a procedural request rather than a law that changes existing rules, as the Board already has authority over the university's internal structure under state law.
