Ke Kalahea
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ke Kalahea is the student newspaper of the University of Hawaii at Hilo and Hawaii Community College. The newspaper is currently printed every other week throughout the regular school year, and is currently a 12-page publication.
The name translates roughly as "The Herald" from the Hawaiian and was coined around 1991 by a contributing columnist, Dan Vaughn (author of 100% Natural, a weekly environmental editorial column from 1991-1992) in an impromptu meeting with the staff and then editor-in-chief, Ken Brown.
The current editor-in-chief is T. Ilihia Gionson.
Ke Kalahea is paid for by advertising and student fees, and operates on a yearly budget of roughly $90,000 USD. It is overseen by the Board of Student Publications.
