The Barnard Bulletin shows editor in chief Dorgorgen ELtzNer for 1908 with managing editors and business staff listed as ex-officio roles. Subscription rates are stated as One Year $1.50 and Mating Price $1.85, with strict advance payment required.
A Barnard notice extends a warm welcome to incoming students dated February 5 1908. It expresses hope they will find means to adjust to campus life and engage in the school’s activities with ease.
The Bulletin endorses a yearlong push for restricting office holdings and welcomes a new point system as a starting framework. It notes the plan clarifies workload, caps office count at fourteen points for students, and could curb excessive office entries if enforced, though it remains to be tested in practice.
The plan aims to spread offices beyond the current scope to gain two world benefits for the organization and individuals. Assigning numerical value to minor offices could give them more weight in students’ minds, encouraging conscientious work and recognizing that all college tasks carry definite value.
Sophie P. Woodman edited a buff bound booklet printing the 1907 Barnard College commencement speeches in order, plus a prefatory poem, Tree oration and song, class supper talks, and verses from Vagabondia and A Shropshire Lad. It serves as a memento of class day for 1907 graduates.
