Scope and Contents

The Cardinal/NC Review is a collection of original works written by North Central College students and faculty. The Cardinal/NC Review contains poems, drawings, photographs, and short stories, and the front cover of the magazine is usually original artwork. The length and size of the publication has varied over the years as has its publication schedule. Originally an annual publication and from 1960-1970 a biennial publication, The Cardinal/NC Review was published fall, winter, and spring terms. The collection includes scattered issues from the 1970s and 1980s which may indicate an irregular publication schedule. Additionally, The Cardinal/NC Review was not published during the 2000-2001 school year. But issues are available from 2016 through 2024.
