UH Manoa serves as the host for the ANNUAL HAWAI'I REGIONAL MEETING OF PHI ALPHA THETA. Students from Hawai'i's university campuses are invited to present papers on historical subjects and problems. If you are eligible for membership in the history honor society, you are cordially invited to make a little history at the conference.
To do so, you must submit your name, email address or phone number, chapter affiliation, the exact title of your paper and a one-paragraph abstract of its contents by January 25. Please send proposals via email to UH Manoa chapter advisor Bob McGlone at mcglone@hawaii.edu.
Three hard copies of the paper itself must be submitted by February 15, for the author/presenter to be eligible for a prize. Please send papers to Prof. Bob McGlone, Department of History, A 203 Sakamaki Hall, UH Manoa, 2530 Dole Street, Honolulu, HI 96822. Papers may be as long as thirty pages of text, but the oral presentation of the paper during the Annual Meeting is limited to twenty minutes. (If you wish to read your whole paper, ten to twelve pages of twelve-point font type, double spaced, is a proper length.) Cash and book prizes will be announced at the end of the meeting. Paper presenters get lunch free.
Currently, the prizes awarded at the conference include:
