How to Capture American Preppy Seven Sisters Style
Jackie Kennedy. Sylvia Plath. Ali MacGraw. Katharine Hepburn. Meryl Streep. Though these women share many qualities—strength, independence, and ambition, to name a few—their incomparable style was heavily influenced by their formative experiences at their respective seven sisters colleges: Barnard, Bryn Mawr, Mount Holyoke, Radcliffe, Smith, Vassar, and Wellesley. Think boyfriend blazers, Bermuda shorts, plaid kilts, tennis sweaters, and knit polos.

"Will you tell me whether you have ever admitted a negro woman into reisdence and if so how it works especially whether her negro men friends call on her in the dormitories."
Correspondence between M. Carey Thomas, Dean of Bryn Mawr College, and Virginia C. Gildersleeve, Dean of Barnard College, regarding admission of "Negro women into residence." (1930). As a Barnard student, Zora Neale Hurston '28, did not live on campus. this correspondence indicates the racist climate of the elite women's colleges at the time.
via Documents on Zora Neale Hurston from the Barnard College Archives
The following materials from the Barnard Archives speak to Hurston's experience at the college. Special thanks to Donald Glassman, College Archivist, for helping to curate this exhibit.

Quick 5: Ramadan and Inventions from the Islamic World
Library/Information Skills Lesson Plan
Subject Area Integrated: ELA (listen to, analyze, compare information, form a verbal argument), History (history of Islam, comparative history, influence of cultures upon each other)
Grade Level: 4th-5th
Information & 21st Century Skill Objectives:
Students wil briefly explore the customs related to Ramadan.
Students will be able to understand how the Islamic world influenced other cultures and advanced human knowledge in five areas: hygiene, optics and photography, hospitals and free healthcare, education, and algebra.
Students will be asked to choose which of the five advancements they think is the most important and defend their answer.
Materials:
PowerPoint of the lesson (discussion questions included)
Reading: a couple pages from The Genius of Islam by Bryn Barnard
Ramadan and Islam books display in the library
Instructional Procedures:
Students are asked what they know about Ramadan.
We discuss some basic facts about Ramadan, including facts about fasting.
We read a couple pages from The Genius of Islam by Bryn Barnard, paying attention to the expanding map of the Islamic world from the Dark Ages to the Renaissance, as well as how Arabic numbers build upon Hindu numbers and gave way to the European numbers we have used since the 1600s.
Students will watch a video about Islamic inventions and advances in five areas: hygiene, optics and photography, hospitals and free healthcare, education, and algebra.
Students will be asked “Which of these inventions do you think is most important? Why?” and engage in a discussion about the importance of each. If the students do not pick one of the topic, the librarian can discuss why that invention should not be overlooked.
The librarian demonstrates how to find books about Ramadan, Islam, and Islamic countries.
Students are challenged to explore these books and share any facts they have learned from their books about Ramadan, Islam, and Islamic countries at the end of class.
Suggested Instructional Strategies:
Showing the students the infographic about Ramadan as you are summarizing its contents.
Name the five topics aloud before the video and again after the video, showing the slide where it is stated in large text.
Explain that the Islamic world did not invent ideas like education, but they did make major advances from the popular Greek theories and practices that came before in Western thought.
Assessment:
Students are challenged to explore these books and share any facts they have learned from their books about Ramadan, Islam, and Islamic countries at the end of class.
Related Materials & Resources:

my college list
(applying winter 2019 for fall 2020)
[featuring my ramblings the things that I don’t like about some of them]
Barnard - low sense of community?
Bowdoin (Bates? Colby?) - really like Bowdoin, worried about distance from major cities & partying culture (only listing party culture concerns here although it applies to a few others on the list).
Bryn Mawr
Carleton
Grinnell - not - at all - sold on Iowa
Harvey Mudd (legacy) - distance & I’m into natural sciences, but I’m not quite as STEM-ish as they’re looking for (?)
Haverford
Middlebury
Pomona (legacy) - I’m over 2000 miles away
Reed - not sure that I fit the quirky Reedie vibe, it’s also really far... but the dream of the ‘90s is alive in Portland
Smith (legacy)
Vassar
Wellesley - I’m worried because I know people who went to Wellesley and they all talk about the stress or how it was hard to make friends
Wesleyan
Williams
what I’m looking for: strong biology program (props for mol bio, looking to go into clinical research), small-ish LAC, conference style classes, STEM research from the start, liberal, good FA, low stress culture, high grad school admission rates (not sure between MD, PhD, and MD-PhD).
Feel free to suggest & tell me I’m wrong
