I was most impressed with the outstanding work in the field of medicine, made by Dr. Terence A Rodgers.
He was mentor to many aspiring medical students and created a legendary School of Medicine in Hawai`i.
I do hope his work will be continued by his students.

Thanks to Rogers for opening doors for so many Samoan students, there are now many Samoan doctors all over the USA and the Pacific.

What a wondeful Renaissance Man Dr. Terence A. Rogers was. We were so fortunate that he came to Hawaii and bettered our lives. Yes, he was happy with his accomplished life. Yes, he made everyone around him happy. The gates of Heaven will surely open for him. Goodbye, Dr. Terence A. Rogers. Godbless and Godspeed.

the title should read wrote: He was a horrible person. who are U kidding? Are you against Polynesians and Asian suceeding in becoming a Doctor?? Why would you not like the idea of minorities surpassing expectations when the medical profession was finally opened up for them. Did you think we were not capable, or were you afraid ????

With the newspaper filled with crime stories, tragedy and the blogs willed with hate, it is great to see a story that honors a person, albeit at his death, that truly made Hawaii and the world a better place to live. Although I know that violence and negativism sell more newspapers than uplifting stories, the newspapers should make it a policy to have at least one uplifting story for every two negative stories. I firmly believe that the public mimics what they see and read in the media. Stories like this one, where truly good people are honored, will uplift our society and make more people strive to be like Dr. Rogers.

I will miss him very much. He was a man with exceptional gifts that he chose to share with many others, often others who did not get their fair share in society. I was one of the few women in one of the early medical school classes and enjoyed knowing him as a friend and mentor throughout the remainder of his life. He was committed to increasing the presence of women as well as minorities in medicine. Once when talking of his role in the lives of female medical students, he described himself as "Auntie". I will miss this very fine auntie.

Always insightful, upbeat and straight-to-the heart-of-the-matter, Terry's commitment to doing the right thing -- taken together with his wicked sense of humor -- made him the best colleague and friend I remember from my time in the UH central administration (1970-76). What Terry thought was necessary to the job at hand, Terry got -- from the Governor, the legislature, the doctors and from the entire UH community -- because everyone trusted him. We got what he promised and loved him for that. Terry was one of a kind. Hawaii will miss him. I know I do.

I hope the school perpetuates what he has done.
But just take a look at the demographics today , I;m not so sure.
