Hikes in Oregon

In 2019 Charlotte spent a term (semester) at Oregon State University. Oregon is renowned in the United States and beyond for its national parks and wonderful walking country. Whilst she ‘studied’ she was able to travel through the state and took in some of the best hikes in Oregon.

These are her favourite 10 hikes in Oregon and places to visit:.

Crater Lake, the deepest lake in the US, is located in the south of Oregon in Crater Lake National Park, which cost us $25 per car. It was originally

Does Everything Need A Sequel?

‘The economy stinks, bees are dying, and movies are pretty much all sequels now’. Schmidt from New Girl is not wrong. While reboots have existed for years, we have recently seen many of our favourites undergo the reboot treatment, ranging from Clifford the Big Red Dog to Spiderman to almost every Disney Princess (and a fair few villains). A simple Google search of ‘film reboot’ finds a list of 121 that are currently in the works.

It’s hard to deny remakes are the current trend, to the point tha

The History Of COP: From Kyoto to Paris

You will probably have heard about COP26 and know it’s being held in Glasgow, Greta Thunberg is likely to go viral for a scathing speech and it may be our ‘best last chance’ to mitigate against climate change. But what actually happens at COP summits? Why are they so vital in stopping the climate crisis? And what does COP26 even stand for?

Taking the last, and simplest, question first, COP stands for Conference of Parties and is when the UN brings world leaders together in one place – this year

Society Spotlight On: Once A Month

UoN Once a Month was launched this year at UoN as a branch of the wider Once a Month campaign. The student-led project aims to tackle period poverty and help vulnerable women access the products they need. I caught up with project co-lead and president Sachi Kulkarni to find out more about the society.

What is Once a Month all about?

Once a Month is a student volunteer project whereby volunteers meet/get together once a month to package sanitary products and other items that are then distribut

Is Sustainability Middle-Class?

Thanks to Greta Thunberg, raging wildfires and a few well-timed David Attenborough documentaries, the climate message is finally getting through. While we can all agree there is still a long (long) way to go, I am optimistic.

The US has re-joined the Paris Agreement, the UK has almost entirely phased out coal power and China has committed to a net-zero emissions target. A huge coalition of charities, activists, scientists and legislators are working together to put climate change firmly on the

'What Could Be Worse Than Jumping' @ NNT Autumn Online Season

Inspired by Fyodor Dostoevsky’s ‘Demons’ and David Foster Wallace’s ‘Infinite Jest’, this hour-long production by the Nottingham New Theatre follows two characters: Katherine (Ace Edwards) and Nikolai (Charlie Catmur) as they explore and discuss deeply emotional and personal ideas.

Credit must first go to writer and co-director Oliver O’Reagan for his work tying themes from both ‘Demons’ and ‘Infinite Jest’ together into natural, beautifully written conversations between Katherine, Nikolai and

Holidays That Might Have Been: Vienna

A few weeks ago, my best friend from school sent a message to our group chat to remind us all that in a world without COVID-19, we would be headed off on holiday for a week. Needless to say, like so many other holidays, it is not going ahead.

To add insult to injury, for the next week we all had countless ‘one year ago today’ notifications across social media about last year’s city break to Venice, one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever been.

My schoolfriends are currently all across the c
