On the off chance someone’s searching the BMC tag tonight…

Anyone want to post the May Day schedule? (it’s released tonight, right?)

Just need to figure out what train I need to take to get there for the fun stuff!

Here’s a sea-change in how Shakespeare is read: this iPad app, developed by BMC’s Katherine Rowe and a Notre Dame colleague, offers the ability to write and share marginal notes as well as annotations by experts, audio files, and links to online resources.

“sober” and “step sing” are two things that simply do not go together

The bells are clanging loud and clear at eight
O’Clock; forgotten last night’s burps rise fast,
And glamourpussies curse that bast—-
O naughty word! that unkind cruel fate
Bestowed on them for last night’s—-date
And then, quite raw, from bed they rise at last
And make the effort for their soul to mate
With Kant, Spinoza, Hobbes, Descartes, and Plat—
But their mates they’ll find, not for their souls,
For unlike body, soul’s inanimate
(Though this hypothesis has many leaks)
And from the bottom of a drinking-bowl,
Become a loving cup you’ll find a mate
(That is, if the eyes have it at the Greek’s).

“Bryn Mawr at Dawn: A Rhapsody” , by Elizabeth Boudreau (my grandmother, who graduated in ‘45 and then came back to get her MA in geology in ‘48). This is from the May 1942 issue of “The Lantern”, which was the lit mag back then… (via owl-at-home)

Amazing short film about life at Bryn Mawr in the late 40s.

Part II has footage (with sound!!) of a 1940s Lantern Night!

Part III is “Various social activities and study for final exams at the Bryn Mawr College for young women in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.”.
