Barnard Trustees Back Two Student Representatives
Barnard's Board of Trustees decided to add two current Barnard students as representatives on the board. Most trustees favored the move, with voting rights at the committee level but not on the full board. The decision touched on objectivity versus involvement and followed student advocacy and letters to the board chair Wallace Jones. Ellen Futter and Ann Appelbaum, both Barnard graduates now serving as student trustees, welcomed a voting role for students as part of a more effective board. The action also referenced New York State law limits on trustee numbers and charter considerations.
