"While I have enjoyed contributing to some of the

accomplishments of the impressive growth at the University of

Hawaii, nothing I have done compares to the creation of a new

university. This is an immense undertaking and being part of it

is a once in a lifetime opportunity;"

As Director of the Office of Planning and Coordination,

Prof. Dobson serves as a member of the Vice Chancellor's staff,

supporting the planning and implementin, = activities directed by

senior management officers. The planning office helps to look

at the long- range issues, identify the significant decisions

that have to be made, and convert the results into long usable

products. This frees the officers and operational managers, for

the day-to-day responsibilities that compete for their

attention.
