Looking Backward

It was a long four years ago when the Class of ’66 opened’'a Freshman
handbook with these words from Miss McBride:

“The members of the Faculty welcome you to Bryn Mawr. They look
forward to meeting you in September and to talking with you about your
work and your plans,

**Many of you will come to college having done advanced work tn
school. You will want to consider which advanced college course or
courses will be right for you. Many more of you -- and not necessarily
those who have already done work of college level in school -- will want
to discuss how you can best in the short period of four years establish
the foundations of a strong liberal education and at the same time prepare
for later graduate or professional work. :

‘«We have the resources to help you -- the instruction, the libraries,
the laboratories, You will be BUILDING IN your own education, calling
on these resources as you do so. Remind yourself from time to time
that while nobody but you can create your education, still there are
many ways in which members of the Faculty and Staff can help -- and
they are very ready to help. :

‘*It is important that no talent, no valuable interest and no determina-
tion, be wasted, In this context I think of your own satisfaction and also
of your potential contribution. In a world that depends so heavily on the
highly educated person, each contribution is important.

‘*Your contribution may be through your family, your community or on
some larger national or international scene. The likelihood is that it
will be made in several different ways. You have of course already
begun to. shape this contribution, Your four years at Bryn Mawr should
mean great advances in its development.’’

The four years are at an end. Whatever great advances Bryn Mawr

. has made in the development of the potential contribution of each mem-
ber of the graduating class, we are certain that these four years have
not been without meaning, ‘

Hopefully (a word that a Bryn Mawr education seems to implant in
us), the coming years will witness the realization of these potential
contributions, and we anticipate news of your success.

Congratulations and good luck.

Progress Is...

Throughout the past four years, while the intellects, personalities,
and -- as evidenced by the class picture book -- even the outward
appearances of the present seniors have been developing and changing,
the college has by no means stood still and watched them pass from year
to year. Bryn Mawr itself has progressed considerably in that time, in
aspects from buildings to the private life of its students.

Some of the most noticeable changes are the result of the Ford
Foundation Grant, In Miss McBride’s words, the grant of $2,500,000
and the work of 1,500 alumnae to equal and surpass it have given Bryn
Mawr ‘‘the most stimulating time in the recent history of the College
and made way for more rapid progress in the future.’’ The funds have
already provided for the construction of two buildings -- the one for
Physical. Science and Mathematics and the other a dormitory, Louis
Kahn’s ‘Scottish castle’’ -- and will partly finance the extension of
the Library. In addition, the grant gave new strength to the faculty in
the form of increased salaries and new appointments. For the students,
more graduate and tindergraduate scholarships are available.

The academic functionings of the college have experienced change
in the remodeling of the curriculum. Beginning with the class of 1969,
required subjects will no longer be exactly what they have been in years
past. To comply with expanding programs in secondary school education
and with the increasing desire to attend graduate school, the college
revised its curriculum to allow the entering freshman to begin college
work wherever her ability and preparation permit and provide the
graduating senior with the highest level of work she can achieve to
prepare her for advanced study.

Within the student body, changes have been made by the Self-Govern-
ment Association. Girls may now entertain male guests in their rooms
until 10 p.m., the exact hours being decided in each individual hall by
a vote each fall, The new driving rule permits not only driving on campus
but keeping cars off-campus in the Bryn Mawr area, In the fire-safe
dormitories -- Rhoads and Erdman -- smoking is allowed in student
rooms, And minor changes such as the 2 a.m. unescorted sign-out
have been instituted.

Several of the revisions, and additional. ones now being proposed,
. lave occurred in cooperation with Haverford; the two schools have co-

take courses at the other; there is one Russian Department to serve
both, and the Economics Departments have confederated in the last
year. Most of the social activities are coordinated.

Bryn Mawr is changing with both its immediate and its general
environments to provide incoming freshmen with the same standards
and conveniences as the graduating seniors have experienced.
