Here we provide a working list of sources for current information on the Mauna. As the majority of the Hawaiʻi Review editorial board are instructors of introductory composition and rhetoric, we remind you to always keep in mind concepts of ethos, logos, pathos, and ideas of the aim, intended audience, and author of any article or media item you encounter. We’ve done some of the work for you by including information about many of the sources listed here.
