Barnard Bulletin is a weekly student publication for Barnard College during the academic year except the last two weeks of January. The issue lists the Board of Editors and the Business Board with names and class years of editors, assistants, and staff.
The undergraduate body shows strong interest in a proposed cut system. A Tuesday meeting demonstrated awareness of the current system's inadequacies and a sense of responsibility toward reform.
The Student Council proposes a new attendance system to replace the present method. It aims to abolish lateness, improve scholarship, and shift students from passive receivers to active searchers for truth. The plan is radical but deserves careful consideration and trial.
Editors announce Beatrice Whyte of 1920 as elected to Bulletin staff after careful deliberation. The piece notes strong effort from all contestants and invites others who tried out to stay engaged for fall vacancies.
The business manager of Bulletin assures readers that due money will be returned. They credit subscribers for support during a crisis and urge those who have hesitated to pay their bills to stay reassured as payments are eagerly awaited at the Bulletin Office.
The editorial policy states letters to the editor are welcome but the newspaper does not endorse opinions. All contributions must be signed with the author’s full name, with initials or numerals used only if the writer desires.
Explanation to the Editor disputes 1919's view on the February 21 BULLETIN reporting of Student Council minutes. The writer seeks clarity on how minutes are publicized and the implications for transparency.
The Student Council explains that minutes on file in the office and another copy sent to Students Hall include the offender’s name in one, while the public copy omits identities. It notes investigations and notes on club existence, charter renewals, and lectures by Dr Adam and Sir Robert Falconer with calls for wider student involvement and suggestions to the Dean or Religion Department. Dorothy Brockwyn signs as Chairman.
A college bulletin announces Wigs and Cues will stage an original Spring production. Critics question if amateur playwrights deserve such spotlight over established dramatists and note prior performances by a "Young Ladies' Finishing School" show as a contrasting example. The letter ends with a continuation notice to Page 4.
