Alberta Pualani Hopkins (also known as Alberta P. Anthony) taught at the University of Hawaii for more than 20 years and was the author of Ka Lei Ha'aheo, a beginning level Hawaiian language textbook. Before retiring she served as acting dean of students. Hopkins was co-author of an earlier Hawaiian language textbook, E Kama'ilio Hawaii Kakou: Letʻs Speak Hawaiian [with Dorothy M. Kahananui]. Hopkins received the UH Regents' Medal for Excellence in Teaching in 1989 and Ke Kukui Malama for Excellence in Hawaiian Education from the Office of Hawaiian Affairs in 1996. Last year [2003], the Church Divinity School of the Pacific in Berkeley, Calif., named her a doctor of humane letters for her involvement in Anglican Church efforts. She was a founding member of the Anglican Indigenous Network and a member of the national Episcopal Church Commission on Racial and Ethnic Ministry. She served as a professional consultant on the Hawaiian Bible Project and chaired the Native Hawaiian Ministries Board. From: http://archives.starbulletin.com/2004/09/22/news/story11.html
