from the article:
“...My story goes back to November of 2001 and April-May of 2002 when K.S. candidates for admission were being screened and interviewed and selected. That was an unusual time of low applications for the new Maui campus and, so, low openings the latter set by the school based on the expectation of how many would apply.
According to well-sourced information, notes and personal recollections I gathered last week, the trustees and some administration officials at the schools manipulated the vacancies in 8th grade in order to admit the first non-Hawaiian student since some haole-faculty kids were let in more than 40 years ago. Then the trustees decided to keep silent about that shattering decision and did until there was a news leak from Maui campus officials in July 2002. ....”
Questions:
Who specifically let these kids in more than 40 years ago?
What did they do to get the kids in?
Where (other states/countries) did the kids come from?
When exactly did the admissions occur?
Why did they let the kids in?
How long did this go on; did they do this more often than “more than 40 years ago?
2002 - 40 = 1960 before ?? Was born.
It appears that no none Hawaiian aka children of Hawaiian heritage. ( see other links for that definition )were allowed in from 1960 to 2002
Therefore all including O would have had to qualify. An African or person from Kansas are NOT on the list
From:
http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kamehameha_Schools
The schools’ controversial admissions policy prefers applicants with Native Hawaiian ancestry and has excluded all but two non-Hawaiians from attending since 1965. A lawsuit challenging the school’s admission policy resulted in a narrow victory for Kamehameha in the Ninth Circuit Court; however, Kamehameha ultimately settled, paying the plaintiff $7 million.[8]
