McBride Explains
Teacher Shortages

The crisis resulting from the
great need and the short supply of
teachers and other highly quali-
fied personnel is discussed by Miss
Katharine E. McBride, President
of the College, in her annual re-
port: to the Board of Directors.

The emphasis today tends -to be
thrown on short-term training pro-
grams, particularly in the sciences,
said Miss McBride,-in releasing the
report. These often serve their
purpose as emergency measures,
but they give no assurance of build-
ing high quality into teaching and
research for the future. The crisis
in its magnitude and complexity,
Miss McBride points out, requires
long-term planning and thus begins
a series of difficult balances be-
tween high quality and the search
for numbers.

From the long-term view, re-
search and graduate work of high
calibre should be encouraged all
across the board, Miss McBride
believes. Keeping- this “endless
frontier” before all scholars is the
task of all institutions, particu-
larly the graduate schools of arts
and sciences.

More Than Job Preparation

The graduate schools must be
and are the source of many of the
most-needed personnel and yet too
great occupation with “supply”
would tend to narrow graduate edu-

- eation to the preparation for a

job. “The hazard is essentially one
of too great: emphasis on known
objectives. It has nothing to do
with the level of the job, but is
rather the accumulation of many
specific and urgent demands which
together: make the present-day
scholar see ‘the pursuit of knowl-
edge’ in more limited terms than
did his predecessors,” said the
President.

The size of the Bryn Mawr Grad-
uate School was increased in 1955-56
in recognition of the critical needs
for manpower and research, ahead
of long-term plans that would
mean adequate financial provision
for the increase.

** Donations. Promote Action



Immediate action was possible
because several donors made addi-
tional funds available to graduate
students for scholarships and fel-
lowships. Members of the Bryn
Mawr faculty undertook extra work
beyond the stated seminars.

A total of $119,885 was awarded
in scholarships and fellowships in
the Graduate School as compared
with $80,000 in the previous year.
‘Included were funds from industry
and business, and trainee and
tuition scholarships from the Na-
tional Institutes of Health and
from: the ‘State of Pennsylvania.

Miss McBride also anounced in
her report that the 1955-56 budget
of the College was in balance with
a surplus of $2,108.96.

will be a balloting of the sopho-

candidates for Alliance, Athletic
Association, League, and Inter-
faith Association. Slates for these
will be announced on Thursday.
The procedure for all straw bal-
loting is the following: at a class
meeting (junior or sophomore),
the election system will be review-
ed and the class handed a mimeo-
graphed list of its members and
others eligible for election. Stu~
dents will mark four to eight peo-
ple that they would like to see run
for the office in question, The next
day, they will return their lists to
their class hall rep. The election
committee will tabulate the votes.

Traditional Dinner Visits

Candidates for the presidencies
of the organizations plus the out-

going officers will visit in each
hall. They will eat supper there,
and stay for coffee and discussion
in the hall, The hall president and
the outgoing officer will be respon-
sible ‘for introducing the candi-
dates. Nominees are not required
lo make formal speeches.

This year’s “dinners” will start
on Wednesday, February 27, when
Self-Gov and Undergrad candidates
begin their visits. Candidates for
the other organizations will make
the rounds the following week. The
first campus election will be held
on March 11, for the presidency of
Self-Gov.

The five principal roles in the
play—Zeus, Chloe, Adonis, Corydon

Dean Discusses
BMC Curriculum
At the Assembly

Bryn Mawr’s Present
Course Policy
Explained

Goodhart, Feb. 5—In her assem-
bly speech. opening the second
semester of the academic year,
Mrs. Dorothy Marshall, Dean of
the College, pointed to the cur-
riculum as the best explanation of
what an educational institution
stands for.

The curriculum of a college
means different things to different
groups. Mrs. Marshall humorously
characterized its significance to

/these groups. For the freshman, the

courses are a source of wonder;
to the senior, the curriculum means
she language’ exam. To the alum-
nae, it is either “better” or “easier

| than” when Iwas in college.” "The ">

faculty usually looks at the cur-
riculum in a “noble way” although
one may sometimes hear “the
muffled grinding of a distant ax.”
Bryn Mawr’s own curriculum
features required courses, group
requirements and elective courses.
fhe three are” not necessarily
mutually exclusive. They “repre-
sent areas of knowledge all people

-|must have touched upon if they

are to be called liberally educated,”
said Mrs. Marshall.
“Distinguishing Aspects”

The Dean then went on to
examine the distinguishing aspects
of the Bryn Mawr curriculum in
itself and in relation to that of
other colleges. The first point em-
phasized was Bryn Mawr’s “cer-
cain notion of teaching.” All of the
faculty teaches “everything.” A
professor will teach both an ele-
mentary and a graduate course.
Small classes are also character-
istic of Bryn Mawr. At the present,
eight classes have 15 or fewer stu-
dents, two have 65. In all, there
are 120 classes with between one
and 30. students.

Mrs. Marshall’s second point was
the flexibility of the cucrriculum.

.|Majors may be changed. There are

50 freshmen taking advanced

courses this year.

The college’s curriculum is built
upon a four-course basis, rather
than on five as in many other col-
leges. Mrs, Marshall compared the
15 “catalogue items” of a Bryn

‘Mawr department with the 657

offered in the same field by a sister
college. The Dean explained that
the relatively small number of
courses shows a different philo-
sophy in that “we believe that basie
elements are enough for a liberal
education.”

The Hygiene Exam

At this time, the hygiene exam, happily forgotten for a
years, comes to the attention of the Bryn Mawr campus. This
plaguing requirement appears annually, arouses legitimate
complaints and wailings, is briefly endured, scorned in retro-
spect and neglected for another year. Now, prior to the
exam, is the time to raise objections in hopes of their efficacy.

The hygiene requirement is neither edifying nor inter-
esting nor even entertaining. Hither one is forced to recog-

nize quantities of facts one already kno

, or else one is
forced to wade around in a morass of new hygienic terms,’

priefly illuminating~ perhaps, -but.instantly forgotten. And
even if the proffered information is remembered, it is so

fragmental as to be worthless anyway.

There have been at least three types of exams offered
in the past: the multiple choice exam, the essay question
exam and the open boek exam. Occasionally a series of four
lectures have also been administered. The ultimate absorp-
tion rate in each case is equally low since the aim is always

for memorization rather than understanding.

Besides the fact that no one learns anything from the
hygiene exam, that she could not very well find out for her-
self, the preparation for the hygiene exam is a gross waste
of time. No one should be forced to spend time and energy
on a senseless exam when there is so.much pressure from
all other quarters of the college, so many other beneficial re-
juirements that must be met pefore graduation.__In the past
all etudents have been required to pass the exam before they

sould register for the senior year.

This is irritating and

completely unnecessary. If anyone gets to be a junior with-
out realizing some of the basic facts of hygiene, a rushed

~ exam will not be particularly igstructive.

Without lamenting our fate further, let it suffice to say

that now is the time to act in protest.

The South Also Rises

One of the novel but quaint fads that has recently come

to our attention is‘a little something which might be adver-
tised as “Re-write your own history of the U.S., any old

way, any old time; no experience necessary, any

February 8, the legal gentlemen from the
“South have asked the United States Congress to declare null
and void the 14th and 15th Amendments to the American

Constitution. Unanimously adopted, the resolution declares
the two amendments ‘to be improperly constituted and, in
fact, illegal. The core of this argument reposes in a ques-
tioning of the authority of the 39th and 41st Congresses.
Obviously, American history majors have been duped

It is a curious fact that when
an individual is confronted with a
questionnaire on any subject he
immediately assumes a defensive
position and falls to wondering
‘what constitutes the ulterior motive
behind it all. In fact, he not only
questions the motive of the per-
petrator but, in many cases, his
sanity also.

Having recently been exposed to
a questionnaire on “college life”
(composed by a source which shall
remain nameless), we exhibited all
the above symptoms — and more.
We were astounded .by the inex-
haustable curiosity about “dating
about “hair coloring” (this last
being a very touchy point for if
new acquaintances don’t comment
on the name, “the — Singing

hair, coyly asking “what brand do
you use?’’),

We were touched by the question-
er’s effort to make everything as
easy as possible for us, to elim-
inate all possible strain on the
gray cells. For exampee: “Have

~ Concord, Mass.. Gives. ungarians
Tupical Welcome With Assistance

by Sue . Harris

The difference between a free
world and one in which autocracy
rules is no longer a distinction un-
known and untouched by the youth
of this generation. During the re-
“cent crisis in Hungary the con-
ditions Which control many ‘phases
of the social, economic, political,
religious and academic life of these
people became. vitally important
not only to those who fought and
died in the revolution but to the
free nations of the world as well.
Thousands of Hungarians emi-
_ grated from their suppressed coun-
try in order to escape the wrath
of Communist officials. Refuge was
offered in countries where existing
conditions make possible opportun-| .
ities for advancement and for per-
sonal expression.

Bryn : -“Mawr became acquainted
with “George Lindsay,” a student
from Hungary who was forced to
flee his home’ and friends, when
he spoke here in December. But,
for the most part, few of the stu-
dents at Bryn Mawr are aware
of the‘enormous amount of work
and effort needed to settle the
thousands \of Hungarians into new
homes and new jobs.

Acyoss the country the pattern
has been roughly the same. As the
Hurigarians arrive in the United
Statés, they “are sent’ to” Camp’ Kil-
mer in New Jersey where they re-
ceive the beginning of their “in-
doctrination.” Haircuts, new
clothes, paper, wallets, shoes, candy
and literature (in English) on the
United States are handed out
liberally to each refugee. The sol-
dierd at the camp also add their
conception..of the United States
to the varied but limited picture
painted during “indoctrination”:
names of movie stars, athletes and
heads ‘of states are swapped back
and forth; tales of the Chicago
gangsters of the ’30’s are lumped
together with a common knowl-

Six. College Choirs
To Perform Feb. 23

' Six college choirs will join to-
gether Saturday night, February
23 at Haverford College when they
vill present a program of rarely

heard antiphonal music.
: The choirs of Bryn Mawr, Cedar

pe Franklin. and Marshall,
oucher, Haverford and Muhlen-
berg will perform the “question
and answer” type of large choral
work seldom heard outside cathed-
érals. In addition to antiphons of
Jacob Handl, Gabrieli, Schuetz and
Randall Thompson, the choruses in
various combinations will sing
Schubert's “Song of the Spirits
over the Waters” a group of mad-
rigals and a work written especial-
ly for this Festival by Ludwig
Lenel, head of the Music Depart-
ment at Muhlenberg College.

Lenel, a German-born, composer
and concert organist, is a former
pupil of Albert Schweitzer. He has
scored his composition, “To Music
(from Dryden’s Ode _ to St.
Cecilia),” for chorus, string ensem-
ble and brasses. The Brass Choir
of Lehigh University will lend its
assistance in this work as well. as
in the
Gabrieli.

250 singers and 50 instrumental-
ists will take part in the Choral
Festival under the direction of
William Reese, of the Haverford
College Music Department. Direct-
ors of the: participating musical
organizations include Robert Good-

ture, and a strange but strong
bond between the Americans and
the new arrivals is produced.

Once the red tape of their entry
into the country has been cleared
away, the Hungarians are sent to
chosen towns or cities throughout
the United States. Concord, Mass-
achusetts, my home town and one
with a “revolutionary tradition,”
received close to twenty refugees.
The majority were single men, al-
though there were three or four
couples. And all needed jobs.
This occured several days before
Christmas. Imagine a small town,
in the proces of preparing for a
holiday, faced with the problem
of finding shelter and food for
twenty foreigners. Yet, virtually
overnight, committees were set up
to handle transportation, choose
families with whom the refugees
would stay during Christmas, find

‘possible job situations and homes

after the holiday, and, most im-
portant of all, begin English les-
sons.

The hand-picked families wel-
comed their guests with as mych
hospitality as was possible. The

ner, joined in the traditional] festi-
vities, and, in some homes cele-
brated a European Christmas “The
Night Before ...” Each family
bought presents for their refugees,
and as Christmas drew to a close,
several families offered domestic

jobs and homes were found by the
committees. Each Hungarian now
attends night school and is able
to visit his American family dur-
ing his free time.

There have been very few awk-
ward moments during this period
of spontaneity and good will. With
the help of American friends, the
Hungarians have fitted into the
American scheme of living and,
aside from an expected feeling of
home-sickness and unhappiness,
they are earning money and pro-
viding for themselves independent-
ly. The town of Concord has found
the experience extremely enjoyable
and rewarding.

Exams Bring In
New. Resolutions

by Rita Rubinstein ¢

Exams are over for another sem-
ester; now anything that might
be -said about them will perhaps
evoke only peaceful thoughts, them-
ories “recollected in tranquility.”

The following remarks are tak-
en from exam post-mortem state-
ments that have appeared in recent
issues of the Harvard Crimson.

In a letter to the editors two
members of the class of ’58 com-
plained.that, “Every examination
period brings to light a basic in-
equality of status between two
groups of students. . Harvard
men. are faced by a bevy of proc-
tors, whose function... is -to
serve as watchdogs of student hon-
or. The young ladies from Rad-
cliffe are passing the same three
hours with the satisfaction of
knowing that the University deems
their honor above review.

“We sincerely believe that any-
one privileged enough to write ex-
aminations under the honor system
will not take advantage of that
privilege. But the fact is that the
privilege has been granted to the
young ladies of Radcliffe, and not
to Harvard men . . . When an aca-
demic . privilege is granted to a
group of " students differentiated
from the others only by sex (not
by honor) then the chivalry of the
University has perhaps been car-
ried too far.”

Cramming Inadequate?

Asis“ our’ wont;-withstill vivid
memories of exam week, we are
now resolving study-habit reform
for the new semester. As stated
in a Crimson editorial, it is “the
time of year for recriminations ...
(the) realization regularly grows
that the currently popular method
of passing courses by cramming
is one of the most lamentably in-
adequate educational devices yet
blessed with institutional ——
tion.

“And so this is the time... for
resolutions to work continually
rather than sporadically ... reso-
lutions not to get behind in courses,
dreams of making reading period
into a period for exploring special
interests rather than memorizing
texts and mesmerizing students.”

Also from Yale, Harvard and
Princeton comes news of increased
university fees. Princeton joined
Yale in announcing a $200 increase
in charges effective next Septem-
ber; at Harvard room rents will
be raised on all dormitories in the
college.

From the Swarthmore Phoenix
which quoted from ythe New York
World Telegram and Sun, July 5,
1955: “It is true ... that college
students show considerable exub-
erance and ex¢essive and noisy ac-
tivity to the point of ...
and misbehavior while drinking
beer. But they do it not because
they’re intoxicated, since they be-
have as annoyingly without drink-
ing.”

Maids and Porters
Dance Given Sat.

In a gym transformed by Valen-
tine mobiles, snowflakes, cupids,
and the only snowman ever known
with eyelashes over an inch long,
maids and porters danced Saturday
night to the rhythms of John

_.| Whitaker’s_ band.



“Valentine Swirl,”
maids’ and porters’ dance put of
by the Student Maids’ and Porters’
Committee, was run by Helene
Rosenbaum, head ‘of the Commit-
tee. Everyone was requested to
bring friends, and a cool evening
was enjoyed by the energetic bop-
pers and more staid. guests.

Betsy .Nelson and Lynne Sher-
rerd were head of the decorations
committee, and refreshments were
served by ‘Paula Dunaway, Lynn
Kaplan, Leora Luders, Lynne Sher-

Protects Foreign

By Elizabeth Foshay,
’ NSA Co-ordinator
The United States National Stu-
dent Association is the only or-
ganization in the United States
which gives the students of col-
leges and universities all over tke
country a chance to come together

and exchange their ideas on. the
many areas which concern the role
of students.

Domestically the organization
concerns itself with such problems
as the setting up or improvement
of student governments, student
housing, fraternities and sororities
and even parking problems. Inter-
nationally it is concerned with
seeking to protect the interests of
students everywhere with regard
to rights which all hold in com-
mon. These include the right to
study, the right to engage in un-
hampered research, and all other
rights which constitute the concept
of academic freedom. :

The yearly congress of the or-
ganization is the place at which all
the ideas come together. Here the
delegates of member schools ex-
change ideas and write them into
resolutions. Here too, the foreign
visitor may stand and give his

Holyoke’s Wyckoff
Explains Antigone,
Important Fate Role

Sophocles’ Antigone is a play in
which “the right is upheld by the
young and weak as against the
strong and secure”.
alize in considering it, that Anti-
gone is a girl of fifteen. These ob-
servations were made by Elizabeth
Wyckoff, Bryn Mawr graduate and
Ph. D., now a Professor of Greek
at Mt. Holyoke, who delivered the
Horace White Memorial Lecture
in Goodhart, Thursday evening,
Feb. 7.

In admitting that a knowledge
of certain conceptions in Greek so-
cial history is necessary to the in-
terpretation of the play as Soph-
ocles intended it, Miss Wyckoff, who
has herself published a translation
of the Antigone, said that: Greek
maidens of fifteen, the only available
basis for Sophocles’ portrayal,
neither fell in love nor took it upon
themselves to perform the rites of
burial. The rashness and strength
of Antigone’s act is made forceful
by its denial of custom and by its
contrast to the traditional maiden-
ly behavior of her sister, Ismene.
Antigone is under pressure both
from her social position and from
her family past, but not from love
of her betrothed. Although an
Athenian girl of fifteen was ready
for marriage she was not expected
to love her husband. Marriage
might represent for her the normal
fulfillment of life—but nothing
else.

. This horror of leaving life in-
complete, however, is enough: to
draw Antigone, once she has been
sentenced, away from “the love of
death fervent and frequent in the
very young”; yet in this matter
she is not an ordinary young per-
son as she has more friends dead



the annual | than alive. Also she has the-tem=|

per of her dead family—that qual-
ity from which has sprung all their
action and’ their tragedy. If she
is stern and hard it is with the
“sterness of truth and the hard-
ness of reality”.

In seeing a higher law in the Oedi-
pus cycle and establishing the char-
acters as fated, Sophocles has seen
his characters as those whose na-
tures are formed to respond to
great necessity with great deeds.
‘The gods see that the higher law
is finally upheld, but it takes an
Antigone to uphold it.”

own or his country’s point of view
on a certain issue.

The. importance of the interna-
tional aspect of USNSA cannot be
stressed enough. We, the American
students, do not play the same role
in our country’s politics as do the
students. abroad. The American
student is usually regarded as a
fall time student working toward
a certain goal, and is not consider-
ed as a leader in the community
until after he receives his degree,
On the -agher hand, leadership “is
expected of the student in many
nations abroad. The university stu-
dents are very often responsible
for the rise and fall of govern-
ments. They dre the ones who be-
gin the agitation for democratic
rights, and they are followed and
looked to by the majority of the
people of their nation. Their stu-
dent unions have a power which
their governments must take into
consideration.

Center of Moral Support

As thany governments look to
che United States for moral sup-
port in internal conflicts, so do
vheir student unions look to the
USNSA...for.-the--moral ‘support
offered them through our resolu-
tions. Very often the circulation of
these resolutions has the effect of
deciding the attitude of a govern-
ment toward its university stu-
dents.

The struggle of the Hungarian
students for academic freedom was
strongly supported by USNSA. It
was this struggle which touched
off the Hungarian revolt against
its Communist regime. The moral
support of the USNSA was prob-
ably one of the factors which kept
che people fighting even against
insurmountable odds. The effect of
these resolutions shows, in itself,
their importance. Although the or-
ganization has no way of enforcing
its resolutions, the weight of such
proof of approval is enough to keep
tudents of other nations fighting
‘or academic freedoms until they
get them or until they are com-
pletely and utterly suppressed by
government forces.

It would seem to this writer
that if. an organization has such
importance in the world commun-
ity, this fact is enovfgh in itself to
warrant a certain degree of im-
portance on every American
campus.

Mme. Jambor Is
Lecturer In Music

Announcement has been made by
Miss McBride, of the appointment
of Mme. Agi Jambor, concert pian-
ist and composer, as Lecturer in
Music at the College. Mme. Jambor,
a Hungarian by birth who now
lives in Baltimore, Maryland, will
join the faculty next September.

try and has played at the Bach
Festivals in Bethlehem, Pennsyl-

Bryn Mawr Junior Varsity and. Varsity

Basketball Squads Defeated by Drexel|

Flushed with their recent tri-
umphs over Ogontz Center and the
Bryn Mawr Nurses, the Athena All
Stars and the Minerva Monsters
(Bryn Mawr’s world-famous bas-
ketball varsity and J.V.) played
Drexel Institute in two rousing
games last Thursday. Although
both ‘teams played with their
characteristic dynamic enthusiasm,
the All Stars were beaten by
Drexel, 47 to 26, while the Mon-
sters were edged out 44 to 41.

Even though ft has been sug-
gested that perhaps the Drexel
teams were so over-awed by their
‘ opponents’ fluent Greek cheers that
they were unable to appreciate the
subtlety of our varsity’s plays, the
fact remains that neither Bryn
Mawr team played a very good
game. The second team made a
better showing than the varsity,

picking up after a slow start to
come near winning the game in
the last agonizing minutes of play.

Mary Masland was outstanding
in the J.V. game, piling up a total
of 21 points for Bryn Mawr. The
varsity, although it did nothing
‘ really badly, did nothing really well
either, but was handicapped most
of all by the low percentage of
baskets the Bryn Mawr forwards
were able to make.

“The teamwork in both games,

however, was very much better
than in the previous matches. An
improvement in individual skills
should make the teamwork effect-
ive and profitable.

Barnard ‘Sponsors
Asian Conference

“Asia and the West: Time for
Understanding,” is the subject of
the ninth annual Barnard Forum
to be held Saturday, February 16,
at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel.

Metropolitan alumnae groups of
48 colleges and the New York
Branch of the American Associa-
tion of University Women - have
joined Barnard College this year in
sponsoring the Forum. Seven col-
leges planned the first meeting in
1949; “to bring to open discussion
critical: issues of the time, as a
public service to the community
and as a contribution to general
edycation,”

Three experts will consider the
theme of Asia and the West. Miss
Santha Rama Rau, author of
“Home to India” and “Remember
the House,” will open the Forum
with an address on “The Asian
View.” Miss: Barbara Ward, econo-
mist and author of “Policy for the
West” and “The West at Bay,”
will present “The Western View.”
A final address, “The Role of the
United States,” will be given by
President Grayson Kirk of Colum-
bia University, who last year
toured the Far East under a grant
from the Ford Foundation.

President Millicent C. McIntosh)

of Barnard College, will preside
at the Forum. Following the three
principal addresses there will be a
- question period:

The Forum will begin with a
luncheon at....12:45.. p.m,

Astoria, with the program begin-
ning at 2:00 p.m. Tickets for the
