"Punahou Academy henceforth
will be the name of the local insti
tuition known as Oahu College, the
change having been made at recent
meeting of the board of trustees OF
the school. The change was made
largely through the fact that the in
stitution is not college, for although
course is offered which covers prac'
tically half year of college work
there is no full course offered from
which a degree may be obtained.
