Publication statement from Barnard College describes semi weekly issues during the academic year, exemption periods, and student-run dissemination. Notes second class matter status from October 19 1928 and post office filing, with subscription 350 dollars yearly and single copy ten cents.
A Barnard College note urges restoring Step Singing to Senior Week events after a missing ceremony last June due to Milbank renovation. The writers call for including the four class songs on gym steps to symbolize progress and unity, proposing reconsideration before exams or by next year’s chairman.
The Barnard campus literary scene stalled as Focus struggles with rep assembly funding, mismanagement, and a poor publication record. Critics question whether Barnard can sustain a quarterly literary magazine given faculty support gaps and past output, while hoping for renewed student contributions and standards.
A letter argues that anti McCarthy buttons reduce fear and unify students across campuses. It notes origins at Johns Hopkins and spread to Eastern universities while urging personal responsibility to defend beliefs.
The Representative Assembly weighs options to fund Focus. Proposals include three issues at 1600, making Focus semi annual, or two issues with a reserve fund to approve a third if the first two succeed. The piece endorses the plan to publish two issues now with potential for more.
A Barnard editorial notes waning campus political activity despite a divided student body. It cites a cautious Republican Club, a passive Democrats group, and a Debate Council lacking researchers and participants. The writer seeks cooperation with the Political Council head to study causes and propose improvements.
Barbara Kauder reviews The Sky's the Limit, a Columbia bicentennial varsity show by The Columbia Players. The production blends history spoof and musical comedy with strong performances, clever dances by the Pony Ballet, imaginative sets, and solid directing, though some sketches fall short.
The piece surveys opinions from Mills College Weekly The Ubyssey and Bowdoin Orient on anti Communist sentiment and loyalty oaths. It notes subcommittee disclosures about faculty associations and the impact of McCarthy era politics on academic freedom and inquiry.
The bulletin invites Barnard College students to submit engagement or marriage notices via Student Mail. Include your name your fiancé or husband and the date to have a wedding or engagement announced in the column.
