History of the Administrative Publications: Barnard in the News Collection

All papers in the Barnard in the News collection were released by the Barnard Office of Public Relations.  They were initially sent to the Board of Trustees, and later to the Barnard community at large, including faculty chairs and department heads.

Description

The Barnard in the News Collection is part of the Administrative Publications section of the Barnard Archives.  It consists of press clippings and releases that relate to Barnard College: articles written by or about alumnae /faculty, articles in which Barnard is mentioned, and articles about changes at the college, etc.  They are meant to illustrate how members of the Barnard community and Barnard itself are portrayed in the media.  Articles in the collection include “Gotham 101: ABC’s for New New Yorkers” published in the September 4^th, 1999 edition of the New York Times about Barnard public safety lectures for incoming freshmen; and a City Guide that mentions Barnard’s location from August 26^th, 1999.  The papers in the Barnard in the News collection are not a complete compilation of all mentions of the college.  Earlier volumes are sheaves of photocopies, and later volumes are professionally bound and include tables of contents and section headings.  Packets were released by the Barnard Office of Public Relations and were initially directed to the Board of Trustees, and later the Barnard Community.
