The Helen Merrell Lynd colloquium [sound recording] : the tradition of the new.

The late Helen Lynd, a member of the SLC faculty from 1928-1964, was a distinguished social thinker whose writing and teaching have had a profound effect on scholarship in a range of disciplines -- sociology, philosophy, political science, literature; her educational theories and practices also helped to shape what we know today as a Sarah Lawrence Education. Keynote speakers at the presentation will be Elfie Raymond of the philosophy faculty; Jean Baker Miller, '48, author of TOWARD A NEW PHYCHOLOGY OF WOMEN (Boston : Beacon Press, c1986); Susanne Hoeber Rudolph, '51, professor of Political Science at the University of Chicago; and Ilja Wachs, Dean of the College. Speeches will be followed by a colloquium which will consider the criteria for an annual event and the general mission of keeping the Helen Lynd philosophy alive at Sarah Lawrence. [Description from the Sarah Lawrence College Weekly Events Calendar for Jan. 24 - Jan. 31, 1983].
