I don't have one single ounce of Hawaiian blood in me, and I don't really think people with no Hawaiian blood quantum have a right to admission to Kamehameha Schools as long as there are qualified kanaka maoli students applying.
Why are non Hawaiians seeking admission? For the superiority of the education that Kamehameha Schools gives it students? The scholarships? The Hawaiian immersion programs? I don't think I've ever seen any reasons publicly stated for non-Hawaiians to want to gain entrance.
Can anyone on this forum tell me (if you're non-kanaka maoli) why you would want to go to Kamehameha?
Maui had its own case of a non-Hawaiian kid (who did have a Hawaiian surname) being accepted and then rejected when the admissions board did some investigation and discovered he was only hanai.
