The merger discussions with Korea National University of Transportation (KNUT), initiated under the Glocal University 30 project, began as a pivotal project signaling a shift in local higher education, going far beyond a simple merger. On May 8, following the completion of the University Council’s review at CBNU, the official application for the integration was submitted to the Ministry of Education, making the merger appear to be progressing smoothly. However, as the universities failed to retain their Glocal University 30 designation, the future of the integration was cast into uncertainty. | |

The 2026 Summer Study Abroad Program at Prestigious North American Universities for Outstanding Students, operated by the Office of International Affairs at CBNU, took place throughout July. Held for the two consecutive year, this program was designed to improve students’ foreign language skills, cultivate a global mindset, and strengthen their ability to adapt to intercultural environments. This year, a total of 33 students were recruited for three institutions—the University of Pennsylvania (UPenn) (10 students), UC Berkeley (10 students) in the U.S., and McMaster University in Canada (13 students). | |

At 7:10 p.m. on May 28, a 500 mL reagent bottle containing toxic bromine broke in a laboratory at CBNU’s Advanced Bio Research Center, resulting in the release of bromine gas. Immediately after the accident, the laboratory was ventilated, laboratory personnel evacuated, and the proper authorities, including the fire department, took control of the site. Safety measures were completed about 1 hour and 30 minutes later. Although the accident occurred in a university laboratory, Cheongju sent an emergency disaster text message as a precaution and advised people to avoid the area around the Advanced Bio Research Center. | |

Have you ever ended your day unable to put down your phone before bed? For a CBT reporter, it was common to fall asleep while watching videos or reading interesting posts. At first, the reporter picked up the phone just to find something to watch for a moment. Aimlessly scrolling through various apps had become part of the nightly routine. To change this habit, the reporter tried a 14-day “cortisol detox.” Cortisol is a hormone that helps the body respond to stress. This article is a personal record of an experiment: Could simple daily rituals help quiet stress signals, even if only for a moment? | |

Last year, 33 out of 178 students in the School of Interdisciplinary Studies at CBNU chose the Dept. of Chemical Engineering. This number is even higher than the department’s own entrance quota of 32 students. Students do not decide their major when they enter university, and during their university life they find the major that fits their aptitude and career path by themselves. This is the purpose that the self-directed major system has promoted. In Jan. 2024, after the Ministry of Education announced an incentive policy for self-directed majors, this system, which aims to guarantee each student’s right to choose, spreads quickly. | |

“I have started taking lactic acid bacteria because my parents told me they were good for gut health, but I do not really understand what role they play.” This is what Oh Yoo-jin (Dept. of German Language and Culture, 21) said. While many people consume lactic acid bacteria for general health, few people understand how gut microbiota affect the body’s overall health. Beyond merely aiding digestion or easing constipation, a growing number of studies have shown that gut microbiota is closely associated with metabolic diseases like obesity, as well as neurological disorders such as depression and dementia. | |

On a hot summer evening, it is common to see people out for a run. Some run at their own pace, while others run together in groups. People of all ages now enjoy running in their own way. Running has become an easy and enjoyable hobby as well as a part of everyday life. Running has grown from a simple form of exercise into a widely enjoyed activity because it is easy to start and fits well with today’s digital lifestyle. There is no need to join a gym or buy specialized equipment. A pair of running shoes is enough and people can run whenever they have time. | |

What is the best way to preserve the memory of a trip for a long time? Objects stumbled upon while traveling often hold lasting value, instantly reviving trip memories whenever re-encountered at home. In particular, vintage items found around the world can make the travel experience even more special. The university students interviewed by a CBT reporter each found their own way of remembering their travels through vintage items from different parts of the world. | |

The tragic news from Jeju Island bears the stark reality of our public safety and judicial system. A woman who had been reported missing in May, 2026, was found dead in a farm warehouse after 104 days. Behind this heartbreaking tragedy lay unfortunate flaws in judgment during the initial response phase and structural loopholes within the public safety infrastructure. During the initial stage of the missing person report, the police terminated the case based solely on the context that he had “got through to her,” choosing not to investigate the situation any further. | |

Every semester, as the new term begins, a wide range of religious and faith-based groups carry out recruitment activities on campus. Among them, certain groups have drawn social concern because of the tangible harm they cause to their members. According to a 2021 study by Roh Yeon-sang titled “Current Status and Countermeasures of the Crimes of the Pseudo-Religious,” such groups as “pseudo-religions” are defined as emerging religious sects or denominations that outwardly resemble established religions while promoting antisocial doctrines that induce maladaptive behavior in their followers. | |
