Barnard College announces a semi weekly student produced bulletin published during the academic year with travel and examination breaks. It notes postal entry dates and a subscription rate of 3 dollars 50 per year with 10 cents for a single copy.
The editorial staff lists Roberta Klugman as editor in chief with Arlene Zullow and Margie Gallanter as business managers. Miriam Dressler is named managing board editor with Carla Hitchcock and Abby Avin on the personnel and features desks respectively.
Students note the United Nations tenth anniversary and urge more intensive study programs through the International Relations Club. Barnard delegates participate in Model General Assembly and Security Council events under the Collegiate Council for the United Nations.
The president reminds students of Blue Book rules on attire and behavior. Bermuda shorts only in classes. no shorts or jeans off campus. Smoking rules enforced in Milbank Hall with disposal containers at the entrance. Meals limited to designated areas. infractions report to the Board of Senior Proctors. violations may lead to suspension.
Paris Review editor George Plimpton reflects on his magazine of new authors and illustrated work while discussing The Rabbit's Umbrella. He recalls interviewing literary figures, notes Barnard writers' talents, and jokes about unpaid Barnard volunteers arriving in Paris.
Barnard College weighs library and dorm upgrades as enrollment grows. A Tauber study cited crowding and inadequate facilities at the current library and proposed options include a new library, remodeling Barnard Hall, or a joint Barnard Columbia College library. Trustees allocated 7500 for sketch plans and Wednesday’s meeting will address expansion details.
The Columbia Players offered two short plays over a long weekend. Shaw’s Blanco Posnet provoked mixed laughs with strong performances by Blanco and Feeny Evans, while Anouilh’s Antigone, though talky, drew gripping interpretation with stylish staging and standout turns by Vida Farhad Ismene Gould and Michael Goldman as Creon.
The writer backs BULLETIN’s stance on adding a reading period before finals. While ideal study would be spread out, crowded schedules impede it, and a reading period would allow thorough review and better understanding of course material.
