Every year, CMC celebrates the artistic and literary talents of our campus community, and the community at large, with HOWL Art & Literary Magazine.  Students, faculty, staff, administrators, and members of the community, are invited to submit their poetry, short stories, artwork, and photography for consideration for publication in HOWL.

This year, we’re hosting a Welcome Week literary reading – Till A’The Seas Gang Dry – on Monday, February 2, from noon to 2 p.m., at the 300 Quad Amphitheatre.  Everyone is welcome to attend, and to read their work, or the work of Scotland’s national poet, Robbie Burns, as his birthday falls toward the end of January.  Come read your poems or essays, or your favorite poems, Robbie Burns’ poems, or sing a song in honor of Burns (he wrote one song we all sing – do you know which one?) and learn how to participate in, and be published in, HOWL 2026.
