Three student musicians have won scholarships, valued at almost $3,000, to attend the Hawaii Performing Arts Festival July 11-29 on the Big Island. Christopher Ramos of Hilo, a tenor; Michael Yoshimi of Pearl City, a clarinetist; and Ming Tanigawa of Honolulu, a violinist, were the winners. Partial scholarships were awarded to violinist Sumiko Harasawa and soprano Emma Curtis.

Sally Luzerne-Oi, assistant professor of English as a Second Language at Hawaii Pacific University, has received a Fulbright Senior Specialists grant to Ukraine this summer. She will help Kryvyi Rih State Pedagogical University start an academic writing program and train teachers.
