Barnard, connected to the University, gains a department of pure science funded by Mrs Anderson. The shift ends freshman and sophomore work, transforming Teachers’ College into a professional school while easing concerns about Barnard’s unity. The plan faces initial resistance but supporters see long term benefits for Barnard and Teachers’ College.
The text argues that professional courses should require residence to maintain the college atmosphere. It notes that without residence many non earnest students could take T C courses, and urges Barnard students to finish four years of academic work before pursuing graduate study at Teachers College, though a senior option exists.
The horatory editorials argue the issue of reading room noise at the college. They urge better self control among older students and question the need for monitors or penalties to maintain quiet study space.
