The Alexander & Baldwin Foundation (A&B Foundation) on June 28 awarded a $10,000 grant to Chaminade University of Honolulu to partially fund a comparison macroscope for the school’s forensic sciences program. Chaminade is the only university in the country offering both a bachelor’s of science degree and a master’s of science degree in forensic science.

The camera-ready instrument allows a student to compare separate objects or separate slides and can save information onto a computer.

A&B Foundation is funded by the business activities of Alexander & Baldwin, Inc., a diversified corporation headquartered in Honolulu.

Celebrating more than 50 years of educating students for life, service and successful careers, Chaminade offers programs of study grounded in the liberal arts with day, evening, online and accelerated courses.
