STUDENT LEADERS Wartime condi- tions are making class consciousness a thing of the past in Barnard. Class lines are disappear- ing, and class lists are being revised. But though their membership may be a trifle uncertain, the classes are still one of the most important units in the undergraduate hierarchy, and the class presidents rank among the top student leaders. This year the officers are Margaret Jackson, ' 43, Joan Carey, ' 44, Alecia Connor, ' 45, and Helen Hutchinson, ' 46. Barnard Bear leads barnard bears. Sophomore class discusses domestic problems. 17

Madam Chairman, I move the previous question. WILL THE MEETING PLEASE COME TO ORDER Rep Assembly ' s Monday-at-noon meetings are the weekly manifestation of Barnard ' s belief that democracy can work. Rep Assembly has certain imperfections, but these are counteracted by the valuable work it does. With delegates from the classes, clubs, and all campus or- ganizations, it is entrusted with the management of student affairs. Since it has no basic policy-making powers, Rep As- sembly confines its actions to providing satisfactory measures for the operation of campus government and extra-curricular activities. This year, changes have been made in the system of representation in order to do away with omissions and redundancy. Growing out of Political Council ' s Town Hall meeting on student government, and perhaps out of the war-time emphasis on political issues, there has been a renewed interest in Rep Assembly.

A capable staff under the leadership of an efficient and imaginative editor re- sulted in a Bulletin that was exciting as well as informative this year. Not only were the format, the size, and publica- tion dates of Bulletin revolutionized— there was something even more funda- mental; the paper assumed its role as a moulder of student opinion, aiding the college in its war work. When the Editor, Flo Fischman; Busi- ness Manager, Shirley Aronow; and Managerial Board, Judy Coplon, Carol Collins, Dinny Donegan, Marcia Free- man, Judy Protas, Debby Burstein, and Norma Sheptner were officially buried at the traditional funeral, they left more in Bulletin office than their old papers and gym suits— they left a high standard for future staffs.
