He also oversaw a 24 percent degree program enrollment growth and a physical expansion at the Corcoran.

Hoi is the immediate past chair of United States Artists (USA), serves on the board of directors of the James Irvine Foundation, and was a member of the Los Angeles Coalition for the Economy and Jobs.
