THE YEARBOOK OF BARNARD COLLEGE

Page 6 text:

BARNARD IN THE EIGHTIES In the last year of this decade, Barnard will be one hundred years old. What kind of a college will it be then? Can its students and staff and alumnae shape its destiny? Prophecy is proverbially a thankless task, but fortified by the self-study and planning efforts of the entire college during this past year, I am emboldened to offer two predictions: — In defiance of population trends and economic stringencies, applications to Barnard will increase. — In times of increasing professionalism and specialization, the faculty and the curriculum of the college will remain dedicated to the litjeral arts. Charge me not with vague generalization nor with wishful thinking, for my prophecies deal with the only essential parts of the college, its students and teachers. And I look to a future of such rapid change that it must depend for coherence on the breadth and depth of its educational system. There will be developing challenges to be met: analysis of women many roles in society; research on teaching methods and learning modes of both men and women; adjustments to new technologies; and identification of the needs of non-traditional students and of ways of satisfying their needs. Of course there will be problems, very difficult ones: needs for new housing and new sources of financial aid; maintenance and renovation of buildings; adjustment and revision of curriculum; faculty recruitment and retention; and, always, budgets to be balanced. Sobered as I must be by the problems that loom, still I predict that in 1 990, Barnard will be a sprightly independent centenarian — an educational home for capable young women and for some capable older women; a base for a distinguished faculty of teacher-scholars of all branches of the liberal arts and particularly of women ssues; and unique in its affiliation with a great university in the liveliest, most diverse, most culturally rewarding city in the world.
