‘BMC Officials Attend
Seven Sisters Confab
An annual conference for
presidents, deans, and faculty from
the Seven Sisters Colleges was
held in Boston last weekend to
discuss several topics. Miss Mc-
Bride, Mrs. Marshall, and
Mrs. King attended from Bryn
Mawr.
The purpose of the
ference, according to Miss
McBride, was to enable com-
munication between the seven
women’s colleges so that they
can learn from each other.
Curriculum was. discussed
by the representatives. Well-
esley and Mt. Holyoke are
trying new curricula and Bryn
Mawr is reviewing its two year
old one. In general, the institu-
tions liked the change - from
five to four required courses.
The future of the private in-
Stitution was also’ treated,
Miss McBride . believes that
public and private institu-
tions _ should . work together.
For this reason, she has served
on the Pennsylvania State Board
of Education for the last four
years, Community colleges, public
and private schools, religious and
non-affiliated colleges all find a
job in education, she said.
At the final set of meetings
the presidents, deans, and
faculty members talked in separate
groups. The presidents voted on
a new field secretary, who repre-
sents the seven colleges, traveling
through fourteen of the most dis-
tant states. A Radcliffe graduate

was elected this year.
The chairman and location of
next year’s conference as also
decided. Miss McBride is the new
chairman, and the seven sisters
will come to Bryn Mawr
next October. :
John Coleman was officially wel-
comed into the Haverford Col-
lege community as its ninth pres-
ident last Saturday.
The inauguration included a day
of activities, from Coleman’s ac-
ceptance speech in the Field House,
to a luncheon, a symposium, and
a reception in Founders.
The speech, given to hundreds
of dignitaries and friends of Hav-
erford, dealt with a college’s in-
volvement in. the problems of so-
ciety. Coleman’s past work with
the Ford Foundation has led him
to believe that university talent
is often wasted or ignored outside
the campus grounds. ‘‘There may
have been a time when it was safe
to harbor the dream of a college
as a-place of withdrawal, and to
think of college years as a time
simply to develop oneself to the
fullest, intellectually, morally, and
physically, in isolation from the
pressures of the day. I find much
of that dream irrelevant of our
mission. Too much is happening
