PRAIRIE LIGHT REVIEW

Prairie Light Review is the College of DuPage art and literature journal. We are a student-run, biannual publication. All material is the work of students and residents of District 502 and has been selected blindly to ensure objectivity. This magazine seeks to celebrate and showcase the creative talents of our diverse community, and inspire those who read it. We are excited to announce we plan to run a Fall 2025 edition of the Prairie Light Review!

Previous issues of the Prairie Light Review can be viewed on the College of DuPage Digital Commons.
