Our Weekly Lecture Series returns in the spring.
Held once a year in April (usually the third week) in the Mystical Rose Oratory from 10:30am-12noon. All new and graduating students are required to attend.
This special program, funded by the Hogan Family Foundation, opened its doors less than nine years ago, launching its subsequent graduation ceremonies in the Mystical Rose Oratory.
Our objectives over these years have changed little, but our execution has been improved dramatically – thanks to the immense support received from the business and leadership community of Hawaii.
The Hogan Entrepreneurial Program is open to all full time Chaminade juniors, seniors, and graduate students. Since its inception in 2002, the program has graduated more than 200 student entrepreneurs.
On April, 21, 2010 our program held its annual induction and graduation ceremony at 10:00 a.m. in the Mystical Rose Oratory. There were 31 students who graduated from the program and 33 inducted. Of those who graduated, one student received the Outstanding Hogan Award – the highest award granted by the program annually, to the student who best embodies the spirit and purpose of the program: in academic achievement, in leadership, in attitude and in commitment to service. This student also consistently embraces the spirit of the program through his or her earnestness and enthusiasm for the underlying values of the program. This year’s award was given to Rechung Fujihira from Honolulu, Hawaii an International Studies major.
Other award winners were:
Every few months, we try to bring Hawaii’s opinion leaders together in small closed-door discussions of important issues. In this way, we hope to help build a better understanding on matters that significantly impact the economic and social climate of where we live and where we conduct our business.
List of speakers
We sponsor a job preparation workshop for the homeless, on campus, once a year in November. This year will be our 4th Homeless Workshop. There will be approximately 22 participants from the Honolulu area who will spend the day with a volunteer Hogan Student, to prepare them for future employment. Time will be spent going over a resume, learning about their strengths and skills, preparing for job interviews, and learning about the resources available to them.
