مستخلص: The University of Hawai?i is the only public higher education provider in Hawai?i. Starting in 1907 with Western academic ideologies, the Native Hawaiian (NH) ?ike and ?olelo were not a priority despite being the indigenous culture and language. More recently, the University has committed to becoming a Native Hawaiian place of learning and a foremost indigenous serving institution with the excerpt "...Woven through all it does is an appreciation of and commitment to indigenous Hawaiian people, culture, values and wisdom" in its Mission Statement. The First Imperative in the Strategic Plan 2023-2029 is to "Fulfill kuleana to Native Hawaiians and Hawai?i." The University is in the right place to act more on its commitment to being a Native Hawaiian place of learning and a foremost indigenous-serving institution. Long overdue is the priority of the University of Hawai?i to implement more Native Hawaiian language and culture at all levels in every department and/or unit. This Problem of Practice is an improvement study that explored the perception and diverse voices of employees at the University of Hawai?i at the staff, faculty, and administrative levels regarding the Native Hawaiian imperatives. Inquiries into individuals' earliest experiences with NH culture and language indirectly informs whether or not they consider the NH imperatives to be a priority at the University. This research project is a needs analysis to inform the best approaches and practices to increase participation in professional development opportunities. The study organizational goals support understanding the biases and barriers to promoting Native Hawaiian culture and language representation. Data collection was comprised of the author's auto-ethnography, "talk story" interviews, and institutional data. Qualitative interviews were approached with the local Hawai?i context of "talk story," a cultural form of communication rich in mo?olelo (story) telling of personal experiences. Results of the qualitative talk story data supported by the quantitative data resulted in four themes that informed the recommended actions to improve the imperatives. Recommendations are threefold: (1) Informed context in all areas of the University, (2) Budget and resources, and (3) Opportunities for ?aina and place-based learning. Immediate actions to address the recommendations were two-tiered; the first tier focused on scaling up opportunities, leadership development, and shared campus resources. The second tier has five actions: Sustain the initiatives, NH community engagement, a vice president position, Native Hawaiian campus environments, and increased dialogue with indigenous relatives.
