Fifty-one years without a
woman!
Not many publications or or
ganizations have set a record like
that. However, there was one pub
lication at Nebraska that re
mained womanless for that length
of time. The publication is the Ne
braska Blueprint and had it not
been for one Tish Barry, the mag
azine might still have its some
what one-sided record.
At the present time, Miss
Barry is the only woman at the
University majorin? in architec
tural engineering. She believes
that the male-female ratio has
no effect on the old "girls-get-the-breaks"
theory. She com
mented "I think I get a very fair
chance" . . . and then added,
"Sometimes, even a more fair
chance!"
