Here’s a look at what Rep. Mazie Hirono is up to on Thursday, according to a spokeswoman: 

• Meeting with Michael Rota, chancellor of Honolulu Community College; and Linda Johnsrud, vice president for academic planning and policy at the University of Hawaii.

• Meeting with advocates for the Ala Kahakai National Historic Trail Aric Arakaki, Kalani Souza and Linda Paik. (Watch a video of the trio singing mahalo to Sen. Daniel Akaka during their Washington meeting with him.)

• Meeting with representatives of the Department of Hawaiian Home Lands.
