Barnard College weekly bulletin by the Undergraduate Association reports events and notes for students. Publication is weekly during the college year with vacations and exams periods observed.
In a reflective tone the piece compares the library crisis to a tired tariff theory. Miss Rockwell and the library committee bear the strain while undergraduates face a nine day wonder and shifting privileges. The author urges mindful sharing and avoiding three book reservations to aid those with fewer afternoon classes.
The text notes a rise in executive extra curricular meetings held just outside the library and mentions plans about a divine spark starting a line at 4 10. It reflects on student library access and evening activities including books and a movie.
An editorial argues health enhances beauty and social well being. It critiques visibly ailing individuals and urges self care over cosmetic fixes, warning that a neglected appearance blights community life and morning routines.
The Committee on Instruction resolves that students should not absent themselves from classes on days immediately before and after vacations except in case of very urgent necessity. Dean V C Gildersleeve notes this as the committee sense to deter routine cutting and protect course work.
Dorothy Butler Walsh of Barnard 1920 will speak at the Occupation Bureau from 12 to 1 on Friday December 16. She welcomes interested students and discusses the University of Pittsburgh training course with available scholarships. Katherine S. Doty, Assistant to the Dean, notes her familiarity with retailing.
A historical overview traces Columbia College literary publications from Cup and Gown in 1809 to the modern Columbia Varsity born in 1919. It notes name changes to Columbiana, Spectator, and Columbian Monthly, the wartime Columbia Morningside merger, and the staff driven evolution toward a senior literary organ with short stories essays and poetry.
Community appeal asking volunteers to sign a Barnard Hall poster to fund red stockings for Christmas. A sample stocking will show the amount needed to fill it, offering a simple way to spread Christmas spirit by helping a child have a Merry Christmas.
The Philharmonic Society presented Bruckner's unfinished Ninth Symphony at Carnegie Hall last Friday. Critics praised the Liszt Concerto by Yolanda Mero and the Wagnerian Die Meistersinger prelude, while noting lack of thematic development and unity in the Bruckner work. Mengelberg provided notable orchestral accompaniment and the program highlighted careful balance and refined execution.
