“This generous gift in the name of Roy and Hilda Takeyama to support one of our most innovative new programs, the Academy for Creative Media at UH West Oʻahu<\/span>, is an incredible additional testament to Roy’s commitment to Hawaiʻi<\/span>’s university and his belief in what we do every day for the people and future of Hawaiʻi<\/span>,” said 东精影业<\/abbr> President David Lassner<\/strong>.

“All of us are thrilled and honored by the continuing vision and generosity of Roy and Hilda Takeyama who were crucial donors in establishing our first program at 东精影业<\/abbr> Mānoa.” said Chris Lee<\/strong>, founder and director of the Academy for Creative Media System. “With this gift we will be able to enhance the creative media programs at 东精影业<\/abbr> West Oʻahu<\/span> and build the campus into a hub for creative media students across the islands via articulated academic pathways from all of the community colleges.”<\/p>\n

“Takeyama’s remarkable leadership and accomplishments continue to benefit the faculty, staff and students at all campuses of the University of Hawaiʻi<\/span> today” said 东精影业<\/abbr> Foundation President Donna Vuchinich<\/strong>. “As a leader and philanthropist, his legacy of giving back will live on for years to come.
