That’s how the entire East-West Centre scenario entered the discussion, it was discovered that the university had no Russian Class nor Russian language teachers, (OR IF THEY DID, WE COULD FIND NO RECORD OF THE CLASS OR THE NAMES OF THE TEACHERS)and obviously, neither could the obots who were hassling us, or they would have told us who the teachers were and perhaps brought to our notice, others who had attended the classes, but they didn’t, which was telling so it just had to be elsewhere, and the East-West Centre was convenient. But the East-West Centre, according to wiki (heaven help me, I could barely believe my eyes when I looked it up) didn’t open until 1962.
So you see what happens?
The liars that pop into FR just to misdirect and cause dissent, never find it worthwhile to check their lies at the door, and later, when the meme has spread, (which is all they want to achieve) we are left with making the same corrections OVER AND OVER!
So let’s give them another opportunity now. Please, come forward and tell us all about the Russian Classes at the U of HI, who remembers attending them, what were the names of the teachers...(and don’t tell us you were actually at the East-West Centre, because wiki says it’s not possible...

WIKI SAYS:

On May 9, 1961, then U.S. Vice President Lyndon Johnson was a guest at groundbreaking ceremonies for the East–West Center’s first six buildings.[13] Five of the new buildings, designed by architect I. M. Pei, were built along the new East–West Road where a new 21-acre (85,000 m2) East–West Center campus just west of Manoa Stream on the east side of the university campus replaced chicken coops, temporary wooden buildings for faculty housing, and the Hawaii Agricultural Experiment Station.[14] A sixth building built under the federal grant for the East–West Center was Edmondson Hall, designed by architect Albin Kubala and built on McCarthy Mall.[15]

Four of the six buildings were completed and opened in September 1962...

Not understanding your faith in the "they met at a Russian class" myth.

The University of Hawaii was one of the first to offer the instruction. The basic Russian class was taught that year by one of the two Russian Language instructors on staff, Ella Wiswell or Isabelle Tripianky. The teachers were similar in both background and teaching style. Wiswell was a Russian emigre and talented linguist who for a while had been the only University of Hawaii Russian Language faculty member. Tripianky was also a Russian emigre, who like Wiswell had studied at the Sorbonne in Paris. The class was held in old Hawaii Hall, and numbered about two dozen students in all, many filled with the dewy eyed idealism of American Cold Warriors who hoped to work as intelligence analysts for the CIA.

The East-West Center opened as an academic center chartered by the US State Department in 1960. Check wikipedia.

An academic "center" need not have its own exclusive physical building in order to exist. It can share office space in another academic department, use random classrooms, etc.
