Five Barnard Students Join March On Albany
Five Barnard College students participated in a March on Albany on Saturday March 1 in a unity effort against discrimination in education. The group met a Albany lobby representative at the state capital and later at Chancellor Hall education building. Governor Dewey could not meet due to his schedule though a petition signed by 15 000 students was presented. The march aimed to push a bill outlawing discrimination in college admissions with the demonstrators noting their presence mattered for future action.
