History

The University of Hawaiʻi, Maui College was founded in 1931 as the Maui Vocational School.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> In 1958 its name was changed to Maui Technical School. The college was incorporated into the University of Hawaiʻi System on July 1, 1965, after the HawaiTemplate:Okinai State Legislature enacted the Community College Act which established a statewide community college system under the UH System.Template:Cn

In 1966 its name was changed to Maui Community College after the UH Board of Regents authorized the college to confer degrees in Associates in Arts and Associates in Science.Template:Cn

In Spring of 2010, the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC) Accreditation Board approved the name change from Maui Community College to University of HawaiTemplate:Okinai Maui College. The name change was changed in order to provide a more accurate reflection of UH Maui College's three baccalaureate degrees.Template:Cn
