Faculty Bulletin

"Another evidence of intellectual growth was the appearance of theFaculty Bulletin, under the editorship of Dr. Lauren King, the witty,popular professor of English. At first the Bulletin was a monthlyjournal of administration announcements, committee reports, bookreviews, briefings on what other colleges were doing, and personalnotes within the faculty family--"Dr. Wright reports that Marjorie (hisfirstborn) has begun kindergarten." Emphasis on the college communityas a family, sharing concern for each others' needs, was still strongduring the Buswell era.
In the First issue of the Faculty Bulletin a brief note from theeditor declared: "The one aim of the Bulletin, as I understand it, isto stimulate us all to be better teachers. Since this cannot beaccomplished without changes and soul-searching, you may expect thatsuggestions for change and soul-searching will appear from time totime." As the Bulletin passed from editor to editor through the years,particularly through the 50s and 60s, it became increasingly ascholarly journal, in which professors were encouraged to publish thefruits of their research. Gradually, however, interest in thepublication waned; faculty members professed to be too busy to preparearticles; and the Bulletin expired in 1969." [WCAHRp119]
