University of Hawaii board gets one more candidate
One more candidate has been named to fill the 12 vacancies on the University of Hawaii Board of Regents.
The Regents Candidate Advisory Council has chosen Doris Ching to replace James Donovan III, who withdrew as a candidate to represent Honolulu County on the Board of Regents.
The council previously had given a list of 22 candidates for the 12 seats pay day loan. From that list, Gov. Linda Lingle has submitted five nominees to the Senate for confirmation: Artemio Baxa, for the Maui County seat; Carl Carlson Jr., West Hawaii; Kitty Lagareta, at-large; Teena Rasmussen, at-large; and Harvey Tajiri, East Hawaii.
