Bryn Mawr ends workers' school amid labor scare
Bryn Mawr College officials faced alumnae charges that the workers' summer school was removed from campus on the eve of a $1,000,000 endowment drive. The alumnae report, led by Mary Van Kleeck and Dorothy W. Douglas, calls the action unexplained and significant to the labor movement. A conference program was proposed to foster understanding between the college and the summer school board as the school prepares to open June 7 at Camp Ivy in Pomona, New York.
