I use barrett's esophagus to remember these questions. Remember barrett's esophagus is squamous to columnar metaplasia -> this happens because of increased acid in the esophagus. What this means is that columnar cells are better for dealing with acid/internal fluids, and are a better cell type. Squamous is a better cell type for dealing with outside irritants. This means the vagina will be lined with squamous cells normally, and the cervical canal will be lined with columnar epithelium.
