Anyone can attend this school because every professor we have here in this school are ph.d holders. We love our professors for their efforts in correcting our papers, asnwering our questions at odd times and even replying our junk questions. I'm so greatful to be here, i recommend those people who have never known the standards of dress and honor should come here to learn and go to serve in their office or homes. I highly recommend those people to come here so that they may know what is world and what world's expecting from them?

There are a lot of international students that attend this university, they have different languages, cultures, etc. so anyone open to learning of other cultures through the classmates he/she meets. There are also opportunities to learn of the world through the culture activities offered on campus. Also, because of its location in Hawaii, a person attending this school should probably like being outside, tolerant of humid, warm, sunny but wet, and windy climate, and/or enjoy the ocean and its activities.
