CHAMINADE UNIVERSITY CELEBRATES
2008 SPRING COMMENCEMENT
HONOLULU—May 6, 2008—Approximately 400 students will receive their degrees at Chaminade University’s Spring Commencement Ceremony on Monday, May 12, at 7 p.m., in the Neal S. Blaisdell Arena.
Leslie Wilcox, chief executive officer and president of PBS Hawaii, will be the special guest commencement speaker. A respected news veteran of 34 years, Wilcox began reporting at age 18 for the Honolulu Star-Bulletin, worked as a reporter, anchor and news director at KGMB9 for 15 years, and then joined KHON-TV in 1992 as executive producer and anchor of Channel 2's extended morning news program. Wilcox also worked 10 years for PBS Hawaii in the 1980s and '90s as Honolulu anchor for the nationally syndicated program “Asia Now.” In 2007, she left KHON-TV as its co-anchor of the “Hawaii at Five” news and co-coordinator of its Lokahi Project to begin her new leadership position with PBS Hawaii.
Student salutatory speakers include Shaunalei Kauinohea Awong (undergraduate speaker), and Melanie G. Legdesog (graduate speaker).
