Barnard College issued weekly issues during the school year with student editors. Roberta Klugman serves as editor in chief and the bulletin is mailed from New York with a 1928 second class entry and 3.50 annual subscription rate.
The piece criticizes frequent required assemblies at Barnard College urging time limits and better speakers while noting student discourtesy. It urges more engaging programs and four of six speakers next year and argues for voter participation in Undergraduate Association elections amid rising enrollment but falling turnout.
Natanya Newmann, Barnard alumna and Graham technique dancer, returns this semester to teach dance at Barnard College. A 1944 Barnard graduate and former Martha Graham soloist, she also danced with Merce Cunningham Sophie Marlow and Nina Fonaroff. She now teaches at Juilliard and leads Barnard courses in dance composition and folk dance, urging students to find natural rhythm and relaxation.
A reader argues for replacing four compulsory assemblies with optional lectures on medieval studies and other current topics. If most undergrads attend at least two lectures a semester, plus two required gatherings, respect for speakers would rise and rudeness could decline.
A Barnard student decries low turnout in the Undergraduate Association president election, arguing publicity gaps and suggesting posters at Barnard Hall and Milbank Hall. The writer also proposes electing all four officers on a single ballot to boost participation.
Gloria Richman riffs on Barnard borrowers who use phones rush hours and tote bag luggers to extract change. She notes the artful tactics of asking for money and the common outcome of repayment after months, sometimes with an installment plan. The piece ends with strategies to cope.
