Join us in congratulating KauaʻiCC alumnus and current UHWO transfer student Travis Antonacci. He was one of two students selected to give a speech this past weekend at UHWO's mid-year ceremony. Travis received his bachelor's in humanities with a concentration in history, and plans to apply to grad programs in the spring.
As a distance education student, Travis Antonacci felt a little lost and on his own when he first transferred from Kaua‘i Community College to the University of Hawai‘i–West O‘ahu. So he took it upon himself to develop relationships — pilina — with his new peers and professors.
“Building pilina takes time and effort, but it is the most worthwhile endeavor,” said Antonacci, 25, of Līhu‘e, Kaua‘i.
