In 1956, at 11:00 a.m., Elder Marion G. Romney of the Quorum of the Twelve met with labor missionaries and college faculty and staff during the construction of the permanent college buildings. On that occasion, he made the following prophecy:

“In the name of Israel’s God, I prophesy that the time will come when from among those educated here there will be prophets, seers, and revelators.”

Elder Romney also predicted that “the people here will make more progress in the next twenty-five years than in the past hundred years.”

BYUH Students were in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, for the Roundtable Discussion on Multi-Faith Partnership in Praxis for Human Flourishing and Dignity, August 3–6, 2026. One of the highlights was being able to connect our Malaysian BYU–Hawaii students with alumni in both Sabah and Kuala Lumpur.

They were impressed by the work our alumni are doing professionally and by the many ways they are serving and strengthening the Church in Malaysia. It was especially meaningful for our current students to see such wonderful examples of BYU–Hawaii graduates who have returned home and are contributing.

Mahalo to our incredible alumni in Malaysia and our Political Science Department for making these meaningful connections possible! We are grateful for the continued impact our Seasiders are making around the world. 💛🌏

We thank professor and alumna, Jennifer Kajiyama Tinkham for sharing pictures from their trip!
