-“Dr. Lujan attended Seminary before acceptance to St Mary's College in Moraga for his B.A., The University of California Berkeley for his M.A., and The University of Idaho for his Ph.d in Political Science. He has been an Educator/Administrator for over 50 years. He was Vice President of Minority Affairs at the University of Washington, President of The University of Northern Colorado in Greeley, Vice President and Provost of the Connecticut State System, and Provost at four California State Universities. He has written several books on Higher Education. He is married, has three children, six grandchildren and one great granddaughter.”1581

-impressed with the natural leadership roles the Lujan children held. Herman was versatile—reciting poetry before the student body or as a thespian in theatrical performances. Both he and Alice were gifted with splendid voices whether in choir, church or classroom venues. Considered by all as “Spanish Hawaiians” the Lujan children were a credit to their heritage, school and faith. Parental sacrifice was genuine for the senior Lujan’s as Herman and Leilani went off to college on the mainland earning doctoral degrees in their respective fields. Herman’s stature as President of the University of Northern Colorado at Greeley is an historic achievement in the context of Hawaiian progress.1584
