UH launches whistleblower hotline
From UH News, June 15, 2016
University of Hawaiʻi students, faculty and staff now have an important resource to confidentially report violations of laws, rules, regulations and UH policies. A whistleblower hotline launched in June 2016 further advances the university’s commitment to encourage and enable any member of UH or the general public to make good faith reports of misconduct.
The whistleblower hotline is for legal and policy violations only. Other concerns should be brought to a supervisor, instructor or campus administrator.
UH has selected EthicsPoint, an outside reporting service that works with hundreds of colleges and universities across the country. The service is available 24 hours a day by telephone and online, and users may choose to remain anonymous or identify themselves. All of the information users provide is hosted on secure servers controlled by EthicsPoint and are not part of or connected to the UH network.

HNN: The hotline is handled by a third party, EthicsPoint, so whistleblowers can remain anonymous.
