All of Hawaii should forever know of and remember this great man and his accomplishments.

John Henry Wise, Sr. is my great grandfather. It is fitting that his name be connected in an act of honor to the University of Hawaii.

The returning of the honor that the university once bestowed upon such a great man who is an example to us all is well overdue.

I believe this field should be renamed in honor Wise, other native Hawaiians, and the University.

EO e John Henry Wise, I learned about him last semester and been thinking why isn't this kanaka recognized? Why isn't he a household name? Hopefully this pulls through.

There should not be any hesitancy to changing this name to what it should rightfully be known as...

It's confusing to see that UH Manoa, a "Hawaiian place of learning," would rename an area that once represented an awesome role model to the Hawaiian community to the name of a foreigner. John Wise is seen as an encouragement & a man to be proud of...but what does the Hawaiian people gain from the name "Bachman"?
