The HPR is a quarterly political new analysis magazine published by the IOP. Our magazine is written, designed and run entirely by students, with opportunities to participate in all aspects of the publishing process.

We are a non-partisan publication; the focus of our articles is new analysis based on interviews and research conducted by writers. Each issue contains a Covers section (based on a topic selected by the magazine staff), as well as US, World, Books and Arts, and Interviews sections.

For more information, check out our website at www.hpronline.org and/or feel free to contact Will Leiter with any questions about how to get involved.

INVOLVEMENT

Write: You can write an article for the HPR on a wide variety of domestic and international political issues. There are no prerequisites for publication in the HPR, meaning you can write without completing the comp, but to become a Staff Writer you must complete the Comp.

HPR Online: The HPR is currently working to expand our web content. We are looking for contributors to our blog and writers for online-only articles, and you do not need to have finished the comp to contribute online!

Interviews: Even as a comper, you will have the opportunity to interview nearly every world leader and political figure that comes through Harvard and the IOP. Recent interviews have included Mikhail Gorbachev, Karl Rove, Elizabeth Edwards, Vicente Fox, and Fred Thompson.

Business: If you are interested in the business side of publishing then you can help HPR with our publicity strategy, advertising, and sales.

Design/Graphics: Design and Graphics: The HPR always needs help with the aesthetic aspects of the magazine. If you are a layout or deign pro or like to draw cartoons, there is a place for your skills!

Editorial Board: If you enjoy working for the HPR and want to expand your involvement there are many leadership positions available from circulation to design to editing. Yearlong positions are available for freshman, sophomore and juniors and elections are held in December.
