Student Government
Participating in student government has always offered Bay Path students a means to directly affect student life, while gaining
valuable opportunities for practicing leadership, collaboration and communication skills. Over 125 years, students have challenged—
and changed—policies such as dress codes and have helped create clubs and activities that connect action to impact.
According to the 1952 edition, "Each year, The Portico staff members have as their responsibility the creating of a permanent record
of the activities of the graduating class at Bay Path." The pages of The Portico are filled with perfect coifs and sweet smiles, accented
with a strand of pearls, all worn by Bay Path students whose participation in Student Council, Glee Club and Junior Executive Clubs
was chronicled in the annual book. Also pictured in the 1952 edition of The Portico, the staff of The Hourglass, "a publication that
expresses the news, the interests, the problems and the personalities of Bay Path Junior College."
Seventy years later, the staff of Network News, Bay Path University's student magazine, published articles and columns reflecting
on the evolution of feminism, questioning the gender binary, examining the relevance of women's colleges and researching the
conflict in Ukraine. Totally online, Network News reflects the changing nature of information in today's world.
