It couldn't have been a Kamehameha school, because they only take students of Hawaiian blood. A year ago, a white kid sued to get into the school, and all the liberal locals protested his action. It didn't get much antional attention, however.

It is not well known, but in the early 70s, 6 or 7 white kids attended and graduated from Kamehameha. They were allowed in because the school could not find enough qualified kids of Hawaiian ancestory. I know one of these kids - he is the manager of Hawaiian operations for Starwood Resorts and lives in Princeville. He said he used to donate to Kamehameha (like they need donations!!), but has stopped following the recent attempt to get a white kid in school.

As I am sure you know, the race-based requirements are a joke, because 1% Hawaiian blood will get you in. My wife has an acquaintance whose 14 yr old daughter is 3/32 Hawaiian, but looks like a young Vanna
White. Anyway, the will of Princess Puahei(sp?)Bishop states "children of Hawaii", not "Hawaiian children", but I guess the courts cannot understand plain English.
