The Barnard Bulletin laments the replacement of riverfront views by new apartment towers and a Barnard Court. It recalls the vanished sight of the river and green banks, criticizes vandal masons, and jokes about organizing song leaders with signals and instruments to boost audience pleasure.
A university community laments growing apartment buildings on Claremont avenue opposite the campus. The loss of the campus vista to the Hudson and Palisades after Brook Hall’s gate closed is noted, as dormitory views gave way to city street scenes and distant hills.
The piece proposes a student government plan to regulate cheering and singing during campus events. It argues that simultaneous cheers by rival classes cause ear ache and waste energy, suggesting a staged, reciprocal system so the first two classes’ cheers proceed without interference, followed by further groups.
The piece argues that at many colleges the Faculty and Student Body seem separate yet work toward common goals. It notes the social role of students and the academic focus of faculty while calling for disciplined self government and responsible behavior in everyday campus life.
