New Blood in Barnard Student Assembly Aims for Class Representation
The committee reshaped the Assembly to be a body of alert student leaders chosen to represent their classes and report back to constituents.

A cap and gown procession for assemblies is suggested to dignify delegates and shorten the procession, highlighting merit.
