Over The Summer ©
Over the summer the College
has employed Mrs. Lewis as new
manager for the College Inn and
has begun a program of redecora-
tion with a new coat of paint.
The College has made these
innovations following, and attimes
implementing suggestions left by
the College Inn Committee at the
end of last semester. The purpose
of the changes is to make the Inn .
more liveable, convenient and
agreeable... -

leave it free for use by members
of the College.
No re-decorating has been done
yet, except for painting. Students
will be asked for their occa

However, Dean ‘Marshall says,

Student Initiative Stresse
In Self-Gov Participation =
By Emily Bardack.
Self Gov. President:
Self Government is a vital, dy -
namic force in Bryn Mawr life,
“and we need each of you, It is your
opinions, questions, criticisms,
suggestions and personal judg-
‘ments that determine how we shall
governourselves,
- The coming year is an quaint
prospect for Self-Gov., since
veral changes will gointo effect.
Last year, petitions started by
individuals led to meetings of
legislature, all College elections,
—and two major amendments,
First was the dress rule, re-
quiring students to wear skirts to
dinner in the hall, changed to
leave the matter of ‘dress to per-
sonal taste and sense of propriety.
The Second concerned men in
the rooms. Until this year, men
were allowed only until 6:30 p.m.; .
starting this fall as a trial until
“March, 1965, men will be allowed
in rooms until 10. p.m, on Friday
and Saturday nights, with: -week
night hours ,to be-s@hosen by the
halls. (Please check your consti-
tutions for further clarification.)
More impertant than the specific
rule was the way in which change
was brought about, It was not
~ the Self Government Boards which
initiated the action, but a few stu-
dents who spoke out and were will-
ing to expend some time and energy
‘trahsforming the idle smoker-con-.
versation ideas into actuality for
the entire college.
-This is what Self Government
means, and what it can be. Given
~ the privilege of téeedémn: you have
the obligation to use it well.
We enjoy an atmosphere of free-
dom..where the mature. individual
is respected and encouraged be-
cause she is capable of making
decisions and determining her own
way of life; this is one aspect ‘of
“self? government.
But you will learn that at Bryn
Mawr this is extended to the college
community ‘‘self’’? as well. To both
selves you’ bear a great respon-
sibility, ‘but the burden is aks0. a

THE RE-
—The Class of 1968—
You’ve no doubt had welcomes, advice, instructions and explanations
up to your ears by now. As well-planned as Freshman Week is, it is
ae
very difficult to’ form an impression of what Bryn Mawr is like in these
first few days.
Unlike many other colleges, Bryn Mawr’s policy is to make no
distinctions between freshmen and upperclassmen. In theory, your
assimilation is immediate. You are treated differently only in two ways:
1) you must have a permission-giver check your. sign-outs until you
ke and pass the Self-Government examination given in October or
November; 2) the Administration will be discretely keeping an eye out
for you academically and socially.
Thus you are thrown entirely on your own after four short days of
orientation. No one will tell you that you shouldn’t cut classes or hand
in papers late. No one-will tell you that it isn’t wise to stay out until
2:00 a.m. every night, even though technically it is permitted.
The feeling of independence you will experience inthe coming months
is exhilarating. It can also be frightening. Most important, it must have
as its foundation a sense of responsibility to the College. This responsi-
bility is three-pronged: towards yourself as a member of the College,
towards the present undergraduate body and faculty; and towards Bryn
Mawr -- a cluster of buildings and an idea in the abstract which have
existed for nearly one hundred years. It is a responsbility which you
MUST ‘shoulder if you expect to be happy and successful at Bryn Mawr.
You have become a part of something much larger than yourself.
Never forget it. Just as you must never forget that you remain an
individual in the midst of it.
Editor, COLLEGE NEWS, 1963

From the Editor...
Dear Parents and Friends;
Please accept this complimentary copy of THE COLLEGE NEWS
as your introduction to Bryn Mawr’s independent student newspaper.
THE COLLEGE NEWS attempts to provide the campus with a complete,
accurate weekly picture of campus events, in preview and in review. We
try to furnish a link between campus and the "égutside world’? and a forum
for student opinion on events bothon campus and off. Reviews of current
films, plays and books are also included in the weekly fare.
‘Editorial comment centers on issues of greatest importance -- and
interest -- to Bryn Mawr students, whether it be on proposed college
rule changes or on the upcoming national elections. Special issues
and supplements provide coverage in depth of events of outstanding
importance.
We hope you will want to keep abreast of campus news which affects.
your daughter, even though she may not be directly involved. Anyway,
it’s helpful to know about the events she mentions when she comes wome
for vacations!
We are a financially independent campus organization, all of our
income deriving from subscriptions and advertising. We earnestly hope
that you will support, subscribe to -- and enjoy -- THE NEWS.

League Gives New Impetus
To Social Welfare Program
By Nancy Bradeen
League President
Anti-poverty legislation; tu-
torial projects, cultural enrich-
ment. programs; urban renewal,
“tot lots’? -- thése,are phrases |
which have entered the everyday
vocabulary...of. many. Americans ‘
this summer.
These words sejrsaeli pro-
jects-and ideas which have gained
prominence in the current attack
on America’s social problems. And
it is clear that we, as college
students and responsible citizens,
cannot .forget these words and
ideas when we enter upon a year
af academics at Bryn Mawr.
College students have caused
much. controversy by taking part
in social welfare projects such as
tutoring and cultural enrichment
‘programs. They have been told to
“go back to their books’’ in some
instances; in others they have,
been encouraged to give up their
cloisters and give more time to
social work.
The decision’ as’ to how much
time a student will give to social
welfare projects must be an indi-
vidual one, based on his own capa-
bilgties and interests, But the stu-
dent should have an awareness of
social issues and the solutions
being proposed for them, regard-
less of his personal involvement.
The Bryn. Mawr League for
Social Work operates on the belief
that we should not forget the social
world ‘‘outside’’ during our aca-
“demic careers, League wants first
to provide infor matjon andtostim-~
~~ulate~ thought -on--social--welfare-
issues. Then, to as many students
‘as are interested in doing some-

are given to those who have accu-

Two groups affiliated with A. A.
are the Dance Club and the Outing
Club. The Dance Club practices all

spring. The Outing Club sponsors
camping, caving, canoeing, sailing
and hiking trips, frequently with

colleges. These usually have no

Outing Club also sponsors one

There is absolutely no other organiza-
tion like it . . . no other organization doing
the same important work, or offering the
same wealth of opportunity for imaginative
thinkers in the Liberal Arts, as well as the
Physical and Engineering Sciences.
The National Security Agency: is a major
research arm of the Department of Defense,
but its influence and responsibilities are far
broader. It works closely with many indus-
trial-and research institutions; it has special
access to scientific information at universi-
ties. and other Government laboratories;
and it enjoys close consulting arrangements
with scientists of commanding stature. NSA
staff members enjoy all the benefits of Fed-
eral employment without the requirements
imposed by the Civil Service system.
What does NSA do that warrants ~
this unique stature?
NSA approaches the subject of sophisti-
cated communications from thesé origina]
standpoints:
os ‘Creating secure- communications -sys-
tems and equipments unknown anywhere
else, and devising special refinements for
computers & edp systems that will increase
our handling capabilities? This means that
Communications Engineers, Computer De-
sign Specialists, Mathematicians, Program-
mers, and Systems Analysts, .all contribute
to the design of antennas, transmitters, re-
dling terminal equipment,’ mre’ effective
speech band-width compression . . . and -
scores of similar advances.
2. By the vety nattife’ of. “secure” com-
munications, assuring the continuing. in-
vulnerability of U.S. communications
through cryptologic procedures and teoh-
niques. Because cryptology’ and jts crypto-
~ graphic counterpart are not taught else-
where, mathematicians, scientists—and all
others with appropriate intellectual curios-
ity—will be taught this challenging new
discipline right at NSA. Work in this field
may involve specially-designed computers,
‘television, computer-to-computer data
links, and edp programming. (Even music,
philosophy, or the classics may be useful
prerequisites for cryptology!) ~
3 . Translating written data, and presenting
the crux of the material in meaningful
form. This is the home of the linguistics
expert and the languages graduate—enab-
ling the talented’ graduate to make the .
most of his or her particular gift, and
—quicky expand famuiiarity with other
tongues.
In‘ all that NSA does, there is seldom
any existing precedent. Only NSA pioneers
in secure communications on this broad a
scale, so only NSA offers the college-gradu-
-ate the best chance to make immediate use
.of. his disciplined thinking .
