Bulletin notice inviting Barnard and Columbia group members to share news in Forum. Provides guidance on expressing group activities and submitting items for publication.
The editorial critiques Arthur Jensen's Behavior Today piece claiming inherent female inferiority and limited genius potential. It argues Jensen disguises bias as science, notes the challenge for feminist groups to counter expert-backed pseudoscience, and warns of greater foes than mere sexism from the press defender of Women's Liberation faces.
A reader letter argues for immediate book checks in the library to curb theft and criticizes the dorm switchboard closures at 16 36 each evening. The writer calls for entry exit checks, centers in Barnes House and Plimpton, and an end to second class citizen treatment for BHR residents.
A reader critiques Mademoiselle magazine for promoting women’s liberation in theory while exploiting them in advertising. The February issue is praised for Brownmiller and Gross pieces but condemned for fashion focus and ads that equate freedom with appearance. la Horhota of Barnard Women’s Liberation notes the piece’s bias.
The Forum presents Dr. Alland and Dr. Sitgreaves evaluating Jensen from scientific angles. They challenge his data use and argue the phenotype results mix genetic and environmental factors, suggesting environmental causes may explain IQ differences.
