As you can see from the entries below, we had a great week on Oahu.  I'd like to thank all the stakeholders who took time out from their busy schedules to share their perspectives on marine conservation issues with us.  Direct access to such a wide diversity of important decision makers is what makes this class so special.

    Special thanks to Dave and Kerry for their wonderful hospitality, and for making everything work in Honolulu, and to Janna, Debbie and Patty for their support in Beaufort.

    Finally, I'd like to acknowledge the students themselves - Amy, Andrew, Ellen, Emily, Jen, Justin, Kelly, Michael and Sarah - for their thoughtful blog entries and, more importantly, for their intellectual energy and good humo(u)r, which made this experience so fun and rewarding for all of us.

See you next year. 

Aloha and mahalo,

Andy
