OMMITTEES Aiming to achieve a more balanced and in- tegrated course of study, the Curriculum Committee is the medium between faculty and students in academic matters. Vocational Committee will get that sum- mer or permanent job for you. A browsing shelf and occasional teas belong to the com- mittee ' s less professional duties. Members of the Calendar Committee make more dates than any other girls in the col- lege, schedule the year ' s social events under the guidance of Mrs. English.

BULLETIN Bright Light of the Fourth Estate Elaine Ryan For those who have printer ' s ink in their veins there is no need to mention that Bul- letin, the haven of the typewriter, is the most lived-in office in Barnard. The time of a normal copy day at Bul- letin is roughly divided into three categories. At ten, copy is due. At two, the stuff comes flowing in, an eternal stream of words, but the staff members are bending over micro- scopes in lab. A few devout individuals re- write sto ries, headline them, and when the paper finally goes to bed about four, the managing editors, wearing grins of a Cheshire cat, try to forget it all over a spot of tea. Business Manager Mary Wilson. St. John, Wall and cohorts. Marilyn Schwartz and Ruth Landcsman Managing Editors This unusually placid shot of the Bulletin office includes feature editors Betty Wall and Marguerite St. John, in charge of the more creative type of writing in Bulletin. Their work includes interviewing student or fac- ulty personalities, and previewing and review- ing the activities of campus and outside or- ganizations. Their staff has the less thankful but essential job of pruning headlines and sup- porting mechanical phases of the work. This dual combination results in the substantial second page without which Barnard would not be in the know.
