  • Nota Bene News from the Yale Library
    Spring 2005 Volume XIX, Number 1 Nota Bene News from the Yale Library The Lost Papers of Louise Bryant The personal papers of the pioneering foreign correspon- dent Louise Bryant arrived unexpectedly at the Sterling Memorial Library at Yale University. Thought to be lost, the papers contain such treasures as Bryant’s notes on what she witnessed in Russia during the communist revolution of 1917 and several poems written by the young playwright Eugene O’Neill, apparently never before published. Louise Bryant lived a remarkable life. Born in 1885, she was one of the earliest women to become a star foreign correspondent. Her reporting on the Russian Revolution appeared in hundreds of American news- papers and, for a brief period, she was one of the lead- ing authorities in the United States on the new Soviet government, publishing two books on the subject. She knew personally and interviewed many of the leading figures of revolutionary Russia including Vladimir Lenin, Leon Trotsky, and Alexandr Kerensky. Bryant filled her personal life with similarly noteworthy individuals. Her second husband was the radical journalist John Reed; her third husband was William C. Bullitt, the first American ambassador to the Soviet Union and later ambassador to France; and she had a short but 1919 intense affair with Eugene O’Neill. Poster advertising a lecture by Louise Bryant, The Bryant papers came to Sterling Memorial Library along with the papers of William C. Bullitt as part of a deposit by Anne Moen Bullitt, the daughter of Bryant and Bullitt. Biographers of Bryant believed her personal Lloyd Richards papers at the papers to be lost, but when the boxes arrived, archi- Beinecke Library vists were astonished by the quantity and quality of the materials relating to Louise Bryant.

  • The Odd Couple
    OWEN M. FISS The Odd Couple In June 1988, Bo traveled to Santiago, Chile. The trip was sponsored by the Fulbright Commission and its stated purpose was to celebrate the two hundredth anniversary of the United States Constitution. Bo was accompanied by Abner Mikva, then a judge on the D.C. Circuit and by William Van Alstyne, a law professor at Duke. In a series of public lectures, Bo described the marvels of our Constitution, though he did so in a way that boldly and bravely discredited the orthodoxy that had long nurtured the dictatorship of General Augusto Pinochet. Later that year, the Chilean people were asked, as their constitution required, to decide if they wanted the General to continue in office. Miracle of miracles, in spite of the all-encompassing power of the dictatorship, the noes won, and then to compound the miracle, Pinochet actually stepped down. In paying tribute to a dear friend, the temptation is great to attribute the collapse of the Pinochet regime to Bo's eloquent defense of democracy. But that would be too much, even for me. I mention Bo's trip to Santiago because it marked the beginning of a new phase in our relationship -a phase that lasted for more than twenty-five years and ended only this past August on his death. Bo and I had known each other for ages. We met in Washington in the mid-196os. Bo had just finished a clerkship with Chief Judge David Bazelon, famous for his rulings on the insanity defense, and he had just begun to work for Senator Joseph Tydings, a leading sponsor of the measure that would eventually become the Civil Rights Act of 1968.

  • Campus Shuttles Shawn Luciani, JE ‘20 Ryley Constable, MY ‘21
    Yale College Council Campus Shuttles Shawn Luciani, JE ‘20 Ryley Constable, MY ‘21 January 2018 Report on Shuttles 2 TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction…………………………………………………………….…………….….…………………………………………….3 Background………………………………………………….……….....……………………………………………………………3 Peer Institutions……...…………………………………………………………………………………………………………….4 Data Analysis……..……………...……………………………….………………………….............................................5 Recommendations…………………….…………………………………………….……………………………………………8 Report on Shuttles 3 INTRODUCTION Yale’s two new residential colleges and the expected 800-student increase in the undergraduate population served as the impetus for YCC’s review of the Yale Shuttle System. We have determined areas for shuttle improvement related to both these new factors and persistent prior problems. Specifically, students in the new colleges have expressed dissatisfaction with overcrowding on the Red Line. There is overwhelming interest among these students in adding a line specifically to replace the half-mile walk between Old Campus and the new colleges. To combat overcrowding, the Red Line shuttles should increase in size. In order to accommodate larger buses, the Red Line could shift its route to wider, more compatible streets throughout New Haven. Additionally, STEM students have consistently voiced frustration in finding reliable nighttime transportation back to the central undergraduate campus. They cite issues with nighttime shuttles, including reliability and timeliness. A proper solution to this would include identifying peak times of need for STEM students and supplying more shuttles at these times. On the whole, this report aims to examine the most pressing needs for the student body in regards to the shuttle system. The Fall 2017 Survey and YCC Focus Groups have indicated that students, on the whole, could benefit from adjustments to the shuttle routes that give more options to accommodate both students in STEM and students who live in the new residential colleges, Benjamin Franklin and Pauli Murray.
