Update on Gradual Reopening of UH West Oʻahu Campus

We are currently working with the UH-System on procedures to ensure safe campus environments as we return to campus. To assist our planning process the UH-System will be surveying separately a random sampling of students and a sampling of employees to know what percentage of our UH community is vaccinated. It is a short survey that asks for no identifiers.
