Discussing the work of the Y. W. I
C. A. with special emphasis upon the
{ accomplishments of the Intercol- br
legiate Christian movement in its th
p
work among college women of the o
United States, Miss Leslie Blanchard, at
executive secretary of the National co
Student division of the Y. W. C. A., in ed
an address yesterday in Newberry d
hall showed that it was the business c
of the National Association "to buildg
up the Christian life of the women in ITI
this country and promote unity among p1
American college women through er
conferences."Ia
In the conception of the organiza-'fi
tion, according to Miss Blanchard,
there is no idea of stressing the m
Y. W. C. A. council as a "benev-
olent people interested in students.IC
but people who have the actual con-
cerns of the students carried out on b
the national and collegiate basis."
In its work among the women of
the country, the Intercollegiate divi-
sion stresses particularly the unity of
idea and purpose through the med-
ium of conferences such as the Ge-
neva conference which is held every
summer. "The conferences are natur-
ally arising out of student ques-
tions," Miss Blanchard asserted, "in i
response to the new urge among Uni-
versity women."
