Kula Manu
BYU–Hawaii's journal of literature and art is sponsored by the English Program and a BYU–Hawaii tradition for over 50 years.
Each winter semester, students enrolled in English 392, Introduction to Literary Editing and Publishing / Kula Manu, serve as the editorial staff for the journal. Students, staff, faculty, and community members are invited to submit their poems, stories, personal essays, photographs, and artworks. Current students are eligible for prizes in each category. The journal is printed by BYU–Hawaii Print Services and is usually available on campus before finals week (at the English Program office, the library, the Aloha Center, and the Reading Writing Lab).
