The Morning Mail recalls misfitting expectations for freshmen at Barnard and Columbia campuses. A Bulletin fragment prompts memory of junior high snobbery as a teacher warned against overblown sophistication. The writer notes lingering youth culture quirks and the nostalgia for the era of freshman beanies.
A reader protests Barnard registration was set on Yom Kippur observant Jewish students could not register without attending services. The letter accuses admin of discrimination and questions Columbia University calendar alignment. The writer urges fair scheduling and warns against doubling down on unequal treatment.
Tenants of 600 West 116th Street rebut Barnard College plans to convert the building into dormitory housing. They recount prior opposition, legal actions, and city permit concerns, arguing housing interests are being overridden by a large institution. They urge continued resistance and appeal for tenant rights.
To the editor a reader objects to the calendar reform plan arguing it would cut the December break, ignore Jewish High Holy Days, force classes into September heat, hurt exams timing and disrupt working students while a preps-focused group would benefit. The writer, a long-standing contributor, urges reconsideration and preservation of the current break.
