MORTARBOARD BARNARD COLLEGE BARNARD COLLEGE ARCHIVES VOLUME 92 MCMLXXXVI NEW YORK CITY 1 have a dream today . . - MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR. Washington, D.G. Aug. 2S, 1963 To the Members of the Class of 1986: Every class is special, and so it is with the Class of 1986. Your years here at Barnard have coincided with exciting changes at the College: new academic programs such as the Freshman Seminars, the Quantitative Reasoning Pro- gram, and the introduction of the Centennial Scholars Program; the opening of a new dormitory at 49 Claremont Avenue; the Barnard-Columbia intercollegiate athletics program and dining exchange; and more opportunities to ex- plore the vast resources which New York City offers through internships and the Urban New York Program. Your in- terests, enthusiasm and diversity have served as important catalysts for these and other changes that have enriched Barnard in many ways. As you go forward with your own lives, I hope that you will think about the world that you are being graduated in- to — a world in which you will have an opportunity to lend your considerable talent and intellect to a vast array of important issues; reducing the risk of war; seeking new solutions to famine and any number of natural and medical threats to mankind, ad dressing such evils as terrorism throughout the so-called civilized world, and, close to home, becoming involved in your communities, in politics and public service. For some, involvement may be research; for others it may be active participation in diplomatic affairs or cultural and artistic endeavors. Whatever it is, let it not be passive. Now more than ever before, these are exciting times for women. Leadership positions in many aspects of profes- sional life await young women like you. In the years ahead, you may be assured that your own powerful intellect and your Barnard education will serve you well as you seek to make the world a better place. They will aid you as well, as you endeavor to lead lives that are full and personally satisfying. We have enormous confidence in you — in what you will accomplish personally and in what you will give to socie- ty. You can be certain that we will be here to encourage you and cheer you on — and we hope that you will maintain your interest in Barnard. With all best wishes. Sincerely, Ellen V.

That ' s the office of the Student Government Association and that ' s where you would surely find Dunwreath, Esther, Marian, Chris and Karen striving to make life at Barnard exciting and rewarding. The activities of Student Government are coordinated by a five-member executive board which is chosen through an all-college election. The Executive Board is responsible for coordinating student government, ex- tracurricular activities and organizations, and administering the Student Activity Fee. However, the most im- portant duty of the Student Government Board is to act as a liaison between the student body and the Bar- nard administration. The Student Government Association . . . With you.

SOUNDS OF CHINA The purpose of Sounds of China is to promote Chinese cultural awareness and the relationships among Chinese students and faculty on campus. One of our main attractions is the broadcasting of weekly radio programs on Saturday from 6:00 AM to 9:00 AM on 89.9 FM WKCR. In addition, we schedule other events including movies, tournaments, academic conferences, field trips, Chinese meals and much more. BARNARD ECONOMICS SOCIETY Picture (L-r): Michelle Podhercer, Michelle Liechtman, Beth Goldstein, Melissa Micol, bandy bnamoon, Shana Davis, Cindi Weissman, and Sharon Appel. The Barnard Economics Society provides economic majors and students interested in economics an oppor- tunity to apply what they have learned in the classroom to the real world. Students learn about career paths from our workshops that are run in coor- dination with Career Services. In addition, we go on field trips to such places as the New York Stock Ex- change and the Federal Reserve Bank of NY. The Economic Help Room is a service we provide for all students taking introductory economic courses. 86 4, How do pre-meds and budding botanists share learning and experiences? They, along with other pre- professional and graduate school-bound students, at- tend meetings of the Barnard Biology Club. Headed by President Sharon Revan, Vice-President Cynthia Perez, Secretary Michele Rooney, and Treasurer Caridad Chang, the Biology Club coordinates lectures and events that all biology students enjoy. Members talk about summer biology experiences. Special guest lecturers present information about various biological fields. The annual excursion to Barnard ' s Holly House allows members to explore the nature of Westchester County, while each semester ' s pizza party permits them to explore their appetities. With the assistance of Faculty Advisor Dr. Patricia Dudley, the officers and members of the Barnard Biology Club have a wonder- ful year learning and loving biology.

BARNARD BIOLOGY CLUB The Columbia-Barnard Course Guide is an annual publication which is a comprehensive critique-review of over 700 Barnard, Columbia College, School of Engineering and Applied Science, and School of General Studies courses. Our goal is to provide students with more information than what is offered in the college catalogues about the courses that are of- fered at the University; instructors and course material are evaluated, and the evaluations include numerical ratings and verbal comments which are both derived from responses to faculty and student questionnaires — all of which are supplemented by grade charts. The duties of our staff members are various and encompass the following: distributing questionnaires, analyzing and synthesizing verbal and statistical data, writing critiques of the courses and departments, editing, typ- ing, and business-advertising. Course Guide welcomes all students, especially commuters, and encourages in- terested individuals to join.

Among some of our activities are: volleyball and basketball teams, a dance troupe, a lion dance group, acting workshop, ping pong, tennis, and bowl- ing tournaments. CSC ' s most elaborate event is the Chinese New Year Festival, attended by faculty, members and many non-affiliated students. The CSC publishes a monthly newsletter, and a yearly bulletin to keep all our members informed. 96 The purpose of the Greek- American Society is to in- troduce Greek culture to the Columbia University community. We also try to promote cultural ties among our members. We would like to extend our gratitude to the people that contributed to, and enriched, the social atmosphere of our club.

The organization was established to enable students from the Caribbean and of Caribbean descent to generate and foster a sense of unity and understanding among themselves. By sponsoring events that identify our roots, which are culturally diverse and rich, we have worked from a base of similarity to etablish a conscious feeling of affiliation and solidarity among ourselves. We represent many islands under one sun, and our motto as a Third World people is The Caribbean Students of Columbia University . . . Stronger Together. 99 ASIAN WOMEN ' S COALITION Pictured (L-r): Millane Kang, Tina Fong, Jean Talvy (President), Edna Wong, Betty Lai, and Veena Sud.

Through performances, masterclasses, and workshops, Orchesis gets students across campus up onto their feet, into tneatres, into studios, and into dance. Orchesis sponsors master classes in various tech- niques, such as ballet, modern, jazz, and ethnic, and produces two major dance concerts during the year: one in conjunction with the Barnard Winter Festival, consisting of student works and commissioned works by professional choreographers, and another in the spring, consisting mostly of student works. A major addition this year has been the energetic Choice Moves concert at the ' Plex in the fall.

Not Pic- tured: Chisa Hidaka (Vice-President), Maggie Manetti (Publicity Manager) and 35 other regular members. For more than ten years we have thrived as an ar- tistic and educational organization at Barnard College. Each generation of students has aided the studio ' s growth with their energy and work. We have con- tinued to expand classes and facilities and maintain an excellent standard of instruction. We are a Student Government Association club, non-profit and student managed. In addition to courses of instruction for the begin- ning and intermediate student in handbuilding, throwing on the wheel, glaze chemistry and applica- tion, and firing techniques, we also provide an outlet for the more experienced potter to continue her work. We sponsor trips to galleries and museums, slide shows, workshops to explore special techniques, subscribe to ceramic periodicals, hold a membership in the American Crafts Council, and maintain a small collection of books and resource materials. 102 i MclNTOQH ACTIVITIES COUNCIL McAC — An acronym for the Mcintosh Activities Council, the overseeing board of many on-campus events. The council includes a Lecture Committee, a Social Committee, a Coffeehouse Committee, and the famous Zooprax Film Organization. Our coffeehouses create a unique opportunity for professional and amateur student performers to come together in a cozy informal setting. Zooprax shows the most diverse selection of films on Columbia campus. The Social Committee concentrates on large parties like the an- nual Halloween Party. McAC is also responsible for presenting the Emily Gregory Award to the best pro- fessor as determined through a nomination process by the student body. 103 Pictured (L-r): Pamela Paresky, Amy Veltman, Maria Freebain-Smith, Lauren Berman, Tara Polen, Robin Graff, Rachel Hanser, Joanne Pocsidio, Naomi Hanser and Lynn Janis.

At least one production every year is performed in Barnard ' s own Minor Latham Playhouse. Member- ship in the society is contigent upon participation, either on or back stage, in a show. This membership lasts until one has been inactive for two semesters in a row. Members elect members to the Board of Directors for two semesters in office. Each semester, upon recommendation of the society, the Board chooses the next operetta (or musical) for production. In 1985, the spring operetta was H.M.S. Pianfore in Altschul Auditorium, School of Interna- tional Affairs, and the fall production was Princess Ida in the Minor Latham Playhouse.

But, that one l vstep outside the gates prepares us for ' Jmir giant leap. I I ' m not licked that easily. • rm staying right in this city, and I ' m going to beat this racket! , ; Arthur Miller The mere observing of a thing is no use whatsoever. Observing turns into beholding, beholding into thinking, thinking into establishing connections, so that one may say that every attentive glance we cast on the world is an act of theorizing. However, this ought to be done con- sciously, with self-criticism, with freedom, and, to use a daring word, with irony. Goethe 0 tmtmirt, ERWARK£TS Eyes and Ears so open, like young impressionable childhood j Open to new faces and new tongues Wanting only to learn. Art in Everything from markets to landscapes to paintings to sculptures Art in Life Architecture on a human scale. La bonne cuisine, un bon vin, un bon pain — un petit pride. History Traditions Avant-garde intellectualisms Politics, Literature, Philosophy Exchanging ideas in new languages Form dictating content Improving the content by improving the form Broadening the picture by recognizing the small. This is what I have learned during my three years at Barnard and one abroad. It will stay with me forever. 132 I stood at the window, slight senile and hand waving. And as the train pulled away, my eyes saw before them the fading frames of the indelible images being carefully folded into memories: 8 o ' clock philosophy at the Sorbonne, withstanding the sultry heat in the Uffizzi, smokey cafes in the Quartier Latiu, seeing the fabled art from dusty textbooks come to life, making friends the world over, phone calls home armed with fistfuls of change, falling asleep in phonetics with the headphones on, dreaming for the first time in French . . . I thought to the future and suddenly realized that 1 zvas liv- ing my dream — and that the dreams never end. ■ ! 133 E 5TABLISHMENT Some things never change. Think of all the establishments you con- verged on, Koronets for that late night snack, or ice cream — face it: it is the same whether it comes from Steve ' s or Baskin- Robbins. Just walking down Broadway brings back memories, the night you outdid yourself at the West End, or the stroll you took with your first love. The names change, but places are still the same. You can ' t change memories. f m im H3i R1 ?0 Anti The days of political activism have not passed Barnard-Columbia ' s campus. From the violent protests of the 1960 ' s to the peaceful, non- violent activities of today, Barnard women have played an integral role.
