I don’t think anyone actually knows what’s been mismanaged. Every time I have asked the question no one has ever been able to explain.
That's a funny one Jim. I don't imagine you ever asked Google? But no need, I am sure you could find reams of it just doing a search here of prior threads. But then, if you'd like to assume otherwise more power to you.
Or hey, start with the link Ironyak provides... it's a good one.
I personally found Dan Ahuna's piece in CB a few years ago summed it up nicely..

"For nearly half a century, the state of Hawaii and the University of Hawaii have failed their legal responsibility to properly manage Mauna Kea. Their mismanagement continued despite constant calls for reform from the community and the state auditor.
A review of this well-documented mismanagement leads to one conclusion: Appropriate management will only be achieved when control over the mountain is wrestled away from the university and an entirely new management structure is installed..."
Yeah, I know, it's a bit dated, and authored by an OHA Trustee, so maybe you no like. Though I would suggest giving it a once over. There's a lot of points Dan makes that are worth considering.
