Maya Pines, BULLETIN About Town editor, is a tall, eager seeker of press tickets. A proud American, she has lived in Paris, London, and New York, speaks four languages, and enjoys skiing at Lake Placid and Russian songs.
Ruth Maier, a trilingual, faces summer plans while managing the Bulletin's circulation. Born in Germany and educated in France, she spent summers at Connecticut College and a coastal retreat. She balances studying late, early mornings, coffee, and cigarettes, reflecting her determination and efficiency as she oversees distribution and serves in multiple student roles.
Editorial notes Barnard students show apathy toward clubs despite proposals for field trips picnics and concerts. Music Club jam sessions and language plays aim to revive interest while Liberal Club remains the only notably active group amid a passive campus culture. An epidemic of fervor could boost college life.
Editorials and student meetings spark discussion on a proposed 100 increase in residence hall fees. A Liberal Club investigation and an Assembly discussion signal active student engagement, with calls to study both sides and consider clean up programs and increased scholarship aid. Dean Gildersleeve outlines the college financial report to Representative Assembly next Monday.
The article portrays rising senioritis as one fourth of Barnard’s seniors face a near fatal malaise ahead of graduation. It notes gloom and disengagement, fears about life after college, and a tendency to romanticize expulsion or flunking as a path to success, urging savoring carefree college days.
A Barnard College Political Council forum on Should Coal Mines Be Nationalized prompts calls for student participation. The piece argues youth apathy undermines future electorate influence and warns that low turnout mirrors broader world events.
Miss Margaret Truman debuted as a soprano on an ABC coast to coast broadcast with the Detroit Symphony under Karl Krueger. Audience excitement rose at hearing the president's daughter though her three selections Narrated as Ciclito Lindo Charmant Oiseau and The Last Rose Of Summer showed uneven execution and nervous delivery.
Richard Pousette-Dart opens a new exhibition at 30 West 57 Street, running through Saturday. He describes art as a spiritual expression and dynamic balance, urges open minds toward contemporary works, and notes canvases titled Spirit, Fruit of Darkness, Anonymity, The Inner Life, Elemental, and the Center of the Conscience.
