The Barnard Bulletin is issued semi weekly during the college year by Barnard College students for the Undergraduate Association. It is entered as second class matter October 19 1928 at the New York NY post office under the Act of March 3 1879.
An editorial satirizes Centronia, a midwest town of 15,000, as a symbol of conflict between university authority and students. It links brush bristles to campus leaders, crooked seams to student will, and a crying infant to missteps, pondering university policy and tariff data amid a charged climate.
A collage of quoted opinions on faculty morals from students and observers. Some praise educators as fine examples while others condemn them as immoral or habitually lax, with remarks ranging from witty to pointed.
Wire told reporters he believed prohibition would endure and that the horse would not return. He argued that the assassination of Archduke Ferdinand would evoke revenge and likely spark a conflagration before the century ends. He added U.S. involvement would hinge on Varsity Drag.
This column presents undergraduate thoughts on campus life and issues. The Bulletin notes the opinions do not represent staff positions or institutional endorsement.
A reader proposes replacing letter grades with gold stars, arguing the present A to F scale harms students and staff. The piece mocks curve grading, notes registrar workload, and suggests professors decorate with stars while using Stardust as a dismissive retort.
A satirical 1936 review praises a compact volume by A X O Toole and colleagues from Columbia University. It highlights panoramic life history over centuries, notes pedagogy value, mocks overlong theories, and ends with a bleak forecast about humanity’s future.
An enthusiastic account describes Ham-Hi-Krazi's five minute performance revealing a poised, motionless stage and a hypnotic Arabesque gesture as drums and harmonies build to a climactic finale. The writer declares reverence for the artist, noting the mystery and humanity revealed.
The Senior Dramatic Club invites Barnard students to the first showing of Shakespeare’s Julxs Caesar. Miss Ethabelle Hitchcock alumna of note endorses the event. The column ends with a wry art note confessing loss of inspiration but not concern.
