How low can you go? Nicole Yamase '14 went Challenger Deep low—the deepest known spot in the ocean located in the Mariana Trench. Yamase found her passion for environmental studies at Chaminade and continues to pursue it with a doctoral degree in Marine Biology.

Founders’ Week is our annual celebration of the

Founders’ Week is our annual celebration of the three founders of the Marianist Family, Father Chaminade, Mother Adèle and Marie Thérèse. It was postponed earlier this year, but perfectly lined up with Fr. Chaminade’s 260th Birthday!

The week-long celebration included moments of fun, prayer and opportunities to come together in fellowship and give back to our community in service.

🌏 About Environmental Studies at Chaminade

The Environmental Studies at Chaminade takes a multi-disciplinary approach, allowing you to analyze environmental problems—and their potential responses—through a variety of perspectives. These include policy and law, science, economics, ethics and values and cultural sensitivity and awareness.

Our students enjoy small class sizes, individualized instruction and attention, a number of research opportunities. Perhaps most importantly of all, you will have the opportunity for hands-on learning in the rich habitats that exist across the Hawaiian Islands.

"The throne of Jesus Christ is the cross upon which he gave his life for the world..." - Pope Francis.

On Good Friday, we follow the example of the Virgin Mary as we set our eyes on the cross, meditate on the immense gift of his sacrifice and place our hope on the promise of Easter Sunday.

“I want to shine a light on the problems we’re facing,” says Dairian Balai ’22.

📘 Data Science major
📍 Wai‘anae, O‘ahu, Hawai‘i

Why data science?
“The numbers I work with—on everything from community health disparities to poverty to race and education—represent people, with hopes and dreams, just like me.”

She’s on a mission to tell their story (and hers) by spotlighting the data that speaks to real experiences.

Balai hopes to use data science to spotlight what factors can help protect moms and babies.

Why Chaminade?
Balai enjoys the one-on-one support she gets from professors and advisers, who have connected her with key opportunities. “They really make it a point to help you plan out your future. They say ‘Chaminade is a family.’ I really believe that.”
