Sylvia Schor reports on how Barnard's focus on exam type prompts a survey of other colleges. Bryn Mawr praises streamlined exams while criticizing past heavy ones. Columbia Spectator satirically lists cheating methods, with a noted "noncheaters" call.
A list of Barnard Bulletin staff names and positions appears, naming circulation staff Audrey Brennenfield Evelyn Rosen baum Renee Steissel Naomi Winter Marcia Young Judy Frank and business staff Martha Andrews Marion Lee Elaine Politi Judith Schwack Barbara Silver Mona Taylor Harriet Wilner, plus editors Beulah Sternberg and Judy Kaufman.
Miriam Dresler reviews Wigs and Cues production of An Ideal Husband by Oscar Wilde. Performances by Ruth Park and Mr Sweet stand out while direction and some cast choices dilute the satirical balance of the play.
A letter from Helen M. McCann praises Barnard Admissions for high caliber students and generous scholarships while stressing affordable fees and strong placement. A second writer questions whether Barnard’s Honor System can work when academic marks drive prestige and student government roles.
A letter voices concern over an emotional approach to the Student Committee for Academic Freedom and questions rumors about a member being a Communist. The writer urges careful, unbiased consideration and warns against tactics seen in current investigations.
The writer recalls a crowded SCAF CU meeting where 120 attendees filled a room meant for 75. A planned one hour discussion on the Barrows Dunham case was limited by the executive committee to allow the business meeting to proceed. The note stresses the need to correct Miss Perlmutter’s report in last Thursday’s BULLETIN.
