APLP Experience: Living

Cooking at Hale Manoa residence hall.

While excellence in course content is a key element of program design, it is only part of the learning process. The APLP creates new opportunities to integrate and experience content by taking learning out of the classroom.

One such opportunity comes through the rich cultural interchange that takes place in the residential halls of Hale Manoa and Hale Kuahine on the East-West Center’s campus in Honolulu. Another unfolds through multiple outside activities that provide opportunities to exchange regional and leadership insights as well as to deepen bonds within the class.

For more information about housing see the Center’s housing facilities web page (see http://www.eastwestcenter.org/about-ewc/housing/ ).
