Our Student Body President: Alex Crawford
Cairn University is an institution of many unique, highly qualified individuals stamping their mark on the university. People do this in many different ways; through academics, athletics, extracurricular activities, and their personalities, they make an impact on their university. I sat down with Alexander Crawford, a genuine man with a
Brisbane, Australia: You Have Stolen My Heart
Not too long ago, I hopped on a plane at LAX (after a six-hour flight from Boston) to take a 14-hour flight to Brisbane, Australia. While writing this, I find myself needing to pause and really soak that in. Until June, I will live here in this beautiful and one-of-a-kind
From Freshman to Sophomore
We are almost finished with the school year; can you believe it? In the season of things ending, I was reminded of how this school year began. In doing so, I wanted to take the opportunity to interview one of the freshmen from this year in order to see what
Time to Student-Teach
This semester, as many students are returning to their undergraduate classes, a specific handful of students are preparing for their student-teaching placements. These placements range in location, either in private schools, public schools, or even in schools abroad. Those in the education program have endured several semesters of methods
To Be Out of the Cairn Loop

Facebook Student Prayer Page: An Echo of my College Spiritual Journey

What My Concussion Has Taught Me
There has been a somewhat epidemic raging our campus. It is not something you can catch in the air, but it almost seems that you can. I, like so many others, have a concussion. Even as I am writing this article now, I am having a difficult time as my
A Letter to My Parking Ticket
Dear little yellow parking ticket, I hate you. Okay, maybe that is a little harsh. I am sure you had the best of intentions when you tucked yourself in my windshield wiper two weeks ago. I get it; I parked where I wasn’t supposed to. And I get that
FYP Arts & Culture Reflection
Coming into this program, people told me that it was going to be hard…this was true. I let these words have control over my actions coming into Arts & Culture. Walking into the classroom, we had assignments within the first week and I was really hesitant to let myself do
Postcard from Oxford: Why Studying Abroad is Terrifyingly Worth It
Dear Cairn, I am currently sitting in the oldest coffee house in England (although the café across the street would beg to differ; apparently this coffee grudge-match has been going on since 1654), drinking a latte made with Turkish espresso and eating breakfast. Which, in the traditional British manner, includes
