What is -h?

-h is the PSA's newletter. Each issue is printed on the back side of the header sheets which accumulate near the campus printers. Because of the limited space (one side of an 8.5x11 sheet of paper), each issue usually features a single article. All organizations and members of the Carnegie-Mellon community are welcome to submit timely and informative articles. All articles are subject to review by the PSA prior to publishing.

Previous and Current Issues

New issues of -h become available here at the same time they are published on campus.

  • Volume 2 (2002-2003)
  • Volume 1 (2001-2002)
    • Issue 1: Freedom of Speech in the Digital Age (pdf)
    • Issue 2: Rhetoric and Facts in the Media (pdf)
    • Issue 3: Confronting the Terror (Sierra Leone)(pdf)

Collecting Header Sheets

We can always use help collecting heading sheets from around campus. You can drop them off at a PSA meeting or in the PSA locker. As one member observes:

Collecting header pages sounds like it would be really boring, but oddly enough it isn't. It's like sifting through the history of a primitive past. There was the person who printed a hundred copies of a single document, taking over a ream and a half of paper, but then never picked the copies up. There are the many one-pagers left in the recycle bin. On average, I imagine most documents printed are one page. With the addition of the header page, the page count is doubled. The worst is the person who printed 20 or 30 copies of a file, but forgot to uncheck collate. They ended up with 30 jobs clogging the queue, and a header page for each document. With any system that is free, you expect abuses. It seems, however, that most of the problems are due to ignorance rather than malice. One thing that -h hopes to change is that ignorance.
