Barnard College faces a 1975 76 budget rise as President Martha Peterson announces a tuition and room and board increase likely after February trustees meeting. Inflation plus a $200,000 deficit drive the need, with Columbia University signaling a general 10 percent rise elsewhere.
Barnard College mentors a ten member advising staff for class transfer pre professional and foreign student guidance. The weekly hours vary and postings in the Dean of Studies office guide students. A ten dollar daily late filing fee applies if a program signature is not secured. Continued on page 4.
President Peterson spoke after a three week trip to China invited by the Chinese People’s Institute for Foreign Affairs with ten other college presidents. She described China as poor and at a different development stage, with education focused on practical work and geared to immediate subsistence.
The bulletin announces a semester pause with publication resuming in January. A final staff meeting is set for Tuesday December 10 at 4 00 pm in 107 Mcintosh. The new editorial board will introduce itself and discuss next semester staff organization.
A February referendum may alter how Barnard elects student trustees by excluding juniors and seniors from running. The plan aims to ensure campus representation as current student trustees rotate off and alumnae trustees fill seats. Debby Hirshman says the system risks losing campus contact and attendance could be addressed by new rules. Pu and Undergrad back a compromise to allow only sophomores and freshmen to run, arguing active students would otherwise be barred. The referendum, still under development, will be voted on before the spring elections next semester.
