Kalamalama invites submissions by all members of the Hawaii Pacific University community. Feature articles may be on any subject and should follow the guidelines indicated below. The opinions section welcomes forums and letters to the editor. Forum articles are designated for the expression of opinions which, to be communicated effectively, require substantial space. Letters to the editor are more brief statements. All opinions expressed are solely those of the writers and are not necessarily shared by Kalamalama or university staff, students, faculty, or adminisration.
Kalamalama will not print obscenity, pornography, or bad reasoning. Timeliness, clarity of thought, factual accuracy, and interest to the University community are major factors in selecting material for publication. Articles contributions must include the writer's name and telephone number. Material may be e-mailed to kalamalama@hpu.edu or it may be submitted in person or by mail, typed, double-spaced, or on 3.5" floppy disc.
News articles should not exceed 400 words. Feature or Forum articles should not exceed 1,000 words. Letters should not exceed 300 words. All material becomes the property of Kalamalama.
Sources of factual material should be included, as should telephone numbers of individuals quoted. All claims of fact are subject to verification.
Kalamalama cannot acknowledge or return manuscripts but will retain these for 30 days after publication in the Newsroom (room 314, 1154 Fort St.) for pickup.
Kalamalama reserves the right to reject letters or articles without explanation and to edit those accepted as necessary for copy fit, grammar, reasoning, or style.
