Mrs Gertrude Stenderhoff.
COMMENTS ON THE BULLETIN
John Evarts writes from the Gulfport Field in Mississippi: “The newsletters are more and more interesting.”
Private Francis Foster writes from Camp Claiborne: “It is such a real pleasure to receive the College Bulletins and music programs. Humanizing them with excerpts of students before me and students I know gives an opportunity to see what BMC can do. It is particularly interesting to compare my experiences and reactions to army life with those of others I know. Mentioning ‘cataloguing in the Round House, working in the Dining Hall’ help me to visualize Black Mountain and feel more intimately its activity, and, I admit, with some lonesomeness.”
OFFICIAL DECISIONS
The Board of Fellows, at a meeting on Wednesday, June 16, decided
To assign, tentatively
Molly Gregory’s study to the Book Binding Committee.
Aurora Cassotta’s Study to the Librarian for a workshop; the adjoining study for magazine storage.
2. To recommend to Mrs Albers that she use a specially prepared corner of the Weaving-Art Room for textile exhibitions.
3. To assign the Kopps Apartment to the Herbert Millers for the 1943-44 session.
4. To permit the Textile Workshop to hold their Annual Convention at Lake Eden from September 12 to September 17.
5. To invite the Student Officers and some of the student workers to Lake Eden a week before the opening of the Fall Quarter to help to get the place ready for the new session.
6. To grant to each member of the staff a short time for vacation, either during the summer or early next fall. (Teachers not on guaranteed salaries will be granted vacation money, the amount in each case to be determined by the Board.)
The Faculty, at a meeting on Thursday, June 17
Voted unanimously to accept the recommendation of the Board of Fellows to appoint Kenneth Kurtz Registrar.
To begin the Summer Quarter on July 6 and thereby prevent the students from adding to the July Fourth week-end rush.

To accept Eric Bentley’s recommendation that Betty Brett be permitted to try for graduation in September.
To leave the matter of fees, class attendance and the community responsibilities of work campers to a committee composed of Molly Gregory, Kenneth Kurtz, Gorman Mattison, Bob Orr, Erwin Straus, and Bob Wunsch.
To recommend: a meeting for all work campers the evening of July 6; a similar meeting for the summer school students on the same evening; a Community Meeting on the evening of July 7th or 9th.
