HONOLULU—June 25, 2007—Chaminade University has received a $10,000 grant from G.N. Wilcox Trust to be used for the purchase and installation of multimedia switchboxes in classrooms across campus.
“The grant allows us to buy 13 special multimedia switchboxes. Each one will go into a classroom to upgrade the classroom’s multimedia equipment,” said Dr. Jon Nakasone, Chaminade director of educational technology. “It’ll benefit both faculty and students by allowing for easier switching between various media devices –DVD, video, computer and document camera-- with the press of a single button.”
G. N. Wilcox Trust, established in 1916, benefits the people of Hawaii by funding programs that support human services, education, culture and arts, youth programs, religious organizations, health and rehabilitation. Bank of Hawaii is the corporate trustee for the G. N. Wilcox Trust.
Celebrating more than 50 years of educating students for life, service and successful careers, Chaminade University offers programs of study grounded in the liberal arts with day, evening, online and accelerated courses. The main campus is located in Kaimuki at 3140 Waialae Ave., Honolulu, HI 96816, with 10 satellite locations around Oahu military bases and Catholic parishes and schools.
