Come join the Sierra Club, National Parks Conservation Association, PSO, Save Our Wild Salmon, Students, and Community members for an Earth Day event! We are holding a panel discussion of the Roadless Rule. The 2001 Roadless Rule established prohibitions on road construction, reconstruction, and timber harvesting in almost 60 million acres of Inventoried Roadless Areas. The USDA has announced plans to rescind this rule, potentially opening 45 million acres of public land to timber harvest. 

President Isiaah Crawford invites alumni and parents to join him for Loggers Keep Learning in Honolulu.

This event is a great opportunity to connect and network with the Logger community and hear campus updates. You'll also get to be a lifelong learner by engaging in a presentation from Tina Huyhn, Associate Professor, School of Music.

Wednesday, May 20
5:30–8 p.m.

AI and Privacy aims to bring together scholars, practitioners, technologists, and policymakers to examine the rapidly evolving challenges and possibilities at the intersection of artificial intelligence and data sharing. The symposium explores how the algorithmic turn is reshaping longstanding privacy concerns, from biometric and biological data (“bioprivacy”) to creative and cultural domains. Sessions will investigate emerging privacy risks, shifting social norms, and the ways AI is transforming what counts as private, knowable, and controllable.
