The College Year records Barnard College activities except during vacation and exams. This issue reports on student governance by the Undergraduate Association and outlines upcoming events and notices for members.
The piece argues the Assembly, meeting weekly for half an hour, merely rubber stamps Student Council actions. It laments lack of dissent or initiative, noting meetings devolve into gossip and writing rather than productive debate, and calls for reduced meetings or its dissolution.
A Barnard College forum notes the Eastern Student Conference’s value lies in group unity and contested modern Christian trends. It highlights shifts toward humanism, the dissolving of creeds, and the role of prayer in guiding action, stressing collective impact among college girls and the momentum of shared aims.
Barnard College may offer a fencing class for upperclassmen as a regular physical education elective. If demand exists, Miss Wayman should be consulted at once for interest.
A Modern Art Museum is planned for New York occupying upper floors of the Deckscher building under Alfred H. Barr Jr. It will open with a French painting loan show around November 1 and feature American, Mexican, French and German sculpture and contemporary works alongside gallery exhibits at Kraushaar and de Hauke venues.
A surveyed display of French painting from the last forty to fifty years features strong works by Matisse Derain and Picasso. Ingres is represented by five pieces, while Seurat and Pissarro offer studies and scenes with notable light and shade. De Hauke’s show adds further interest to the collection.
A compact guide reviews current theater offerings with direct reports and criticism. It highlights Holdovers like The Sea Gull and The New Moon, praises Candle-Light and Journey's End, notes major performers such as J Gertrude Lawrence, Leslie Howard, Francine Larrimore, and comments on venues Civic Repertory Theatre and Earl Carroll's Sketch Book while flagging tickets and holdovers for future issues.
