Shelley Weinstock, \u2776, Lisa Pence, \u2775, and Deborah Bornstein-Gichan, \u2776 (BardCorps)

Shelley Weinstock, Lisa Pence, and Deborah Bornstein-Gichan, \u2776, \u2775, and \u2776 respectively, were at Bard at a time when the Feminist Movement was just beginning to gain momentum: I remember it being a very new idea. Feminism was a big, new idea and it was wonderful. Shelley found acceptance and encouragement as a woman in science, while Lisa and Deborah describe their experiences in the literature and dance departments. Together, the three speak of their reasons for attending Bard; what the college provided for them then and since in their lives and careers; and how much their friendships with each other and their classmates has meant through it all. Forty years on, an initial rebuff from a guy friend is now remembered with laughter and huge affection: I\u27d go out with you, but I\u27m social climbing. I\u27m only dating seniors.https://digitalcommons.bard.edu/oral_hist/1077/thumbnail.jp
