We dinged the University of Hawaii earlier this week for not communicating with students and employees about a fire that destroyed the university’s financial offices over the weekend.

But let’s give credit where it’s due: They’re on top of the information game now. A press release issued late today gives a rundown of where things stand, and directs folks to a website dedicated to updates on the fire situation.
