LEGACY

'i/.i. _ . -o,^ ' ^niee Paii3^ WKy This C olumn? Every few weeks or so in this newspaper you will find this eolumn. We eall it Legacy, because that's what Kamehameha Schools/Bishop Estate is — the legacy of a Hawaiian Princess. Through these columns, KS/BE will share information on issues that are sometimes confused and misunderstoo<3. Some of these issues are complicated and difficult to understand. Others are controversial. This eolumn is our attempt to provide accurate information about Kamehameha Schools/Bishop Estate's programs and policies. You should be aware that this eolumn is sponsored by us and it will advocate our views. We are aware that Kamehameha Schools/Bishop Estate is a lightning rod for controversy and that makes us a big, easy target. And because of that, we feel we are sometimes unfairly judged for actions whieh are clearly dictated by the will of Bernice Pauahi Bishop. Frankly, these feelings cause us mueh frustration because, up to now, we have had no real outlet or platform to explain our side of things. After discussing this communications problem, we have decided to offer this eolumn. The topics we plan to cover range from The School's academic requirements, how land speculation affects Estate lessees, what we do with the revenue generated by our land and whatever else may be timely and of interest. If you have any questions you'd like to ask us, or if there is anything in particular that you'd like to know about us, please write to Kamehameha Schools/Bishop Estate, Attention Ms. Elisa Yadao, Kawaiaha'o Plaza, Honolulu, Hawaii, 96813. If your question has broad appeal, we'll feature it in this eolumn. Aloha kakou apau Kamehameha Schools/Bernice Pauahi Bishop Estate KS/BE sponsors this eolumn in the interest of helping people understand its role and mission.
