Published weekly through the college year with a brief pause during the last two weeks of January, this notice indicates Barnard College students produce a periodical for campus readers.
The Barnard College Student Council seeks Economics Department approval for a practical service and investigation program in New York City. Credit would be awarded as points or certificates and coordinated with Economics classes. The plan emphasizes Barnard’s proximity to city settlements and partnerships like the Intercollegiate Bureau of Occupations and the Bureau of Municipal Research.
The Council proposes a faculty supervised work study with settlements to tie academic economics to practical social work. A committee would select activities, assign course credit, approve candidates, and monitor progress with reports and weekly time logs. Trial year limited to upperclassmen and strong supervision.
Miss Caron Lorenz chair of Barnard College Student Council reports a Monday committee discussion on strengthening voluntary activities across departments. The aim is educational value with faculty aid, avoiding credit in points while exploring college statements of achievement. The Economics Department may pilot the proposed approach.
The dean notes experiments this year connected to Miss Hutchinsons course and Miss Patchins return will allow more satisfactory outside social work. She offers cooperation and invites specific suggestions from the recipient.
