Current Number of 'Time' Spotlights 'Cliffe President, Women's Colleges

"Radcliffe attracts beauties with brains from all over the world," according to an article in this week's Time Magazine.

The magazine features a cover story on Radcliffe and President Bunting. Entitled "One Woman, Two Lives," the article studies girls in college and concludes that they have "scarcely begun to use their brains."

The "top one per cent of high school girls who get into prestigious Radcliffe College" are an exception. "Too busy for newspapers and politics," these girls have three things in common, "English bicycles, guitars, and extremely hard work."

All 1,155 'Cliffies, attracted by "those Harvard men--and Harvard itself, of course," are "unusually mature as well as fearfully bright." The Time story noted that 66 per cent graduated with honors last June. It also quoted an astonished Harvardman as admitting that "all 'Cliffies are no longer dogs."

The article describes Mrs. Bunting as "one woman who has taken a just slightly outraged stand" on the waste of femi nine brain power. She has attacked this problem by establishing the Institute for Independent Study to give older women a chance to continue their academic work.

In relation to such waste among her own undergraduates, Mrs. Bunting is "concerned but nevertheless not discouraged" because she has discovered that today's college girls no longer take at apathetic view of education.

'Cliffies spend a great deal of time in the library just "underlining and underlining" in their desire to do more than is required, she declared.
