Barnard College students publish the Barnard Bulletin midweek during the college year to serve the Undergraduate Association interests.
The Eligibility Committee proposes raising nomination and election standards to a 2.4 average with mid year retention if 2.2 is met. They cite a margin of error and student welfare but overlook that extracurricular activity benefits many students and risks concentrating power. The ruling may exclude competent students and fail to address why students pursue activities.
A nostalgic essay on college life and extra curriculars at Barnard argues that freshman social rituals give way to a grind of duties. It notes how involvement in Bulletin, clubs, and student government shapes identity, yet questions lasting impact beyond campus.
Elizabeth Bergner carries the misfit play Escape Me Never at the Schubert Theatre, delivering a strong performance amid a weak adaptation. The Theatre Guild and Margaret Kennedy’s adaptation draw criticism for an uninspired script that overshadows Bergner’s sincere, spontaneous acting.
David Barnett unveiled his Enharmonic Pianoforte Keyboard at Town Hall last Monday, claiming greater technical facility. The new instrument had its first public demonstration April 1933 at Steinway Hall and has since been shown in other venues.
Sally Bright vice president of the Undergraduate Association urges all members to vote in weekly college elections from now until April 12 in the Conference Room 10 am to 4 pm. She asks attendance at meetings in 304 Barnard on Mondays at noon for nominations and appeals for quiet outside the library and hallways during peak study and library line times.
The Barnard Quarterly Editor will be chosen by the Representative Assembly and the Quarterly Board rather than by the college. The motion to conduct Bulletin elections this way was deferred to next week. Elizabeth Pickett and Marjorie Puine were elected Assembly members to join the nominating board for the editor. Beth Anderson was unanimously made new vice chair of the Senior Directors.
