First published in 1893, Chimes has featured student voices for the past 130 years. Chimes gives students a platform to share their voices through writing. Within Chimes are a variety of topics which span from imaginative fiction to opinions on social issues. The following excerpts are from three volumes published between 1919 and 1922.
"What Would You Give To Be Young?" (top) by Catherine Kennedy, the owner of the Kennedy Journal, is a poem about childhood nostalgia.
"The Old Fashioned Mother" discusses what the duties of a mother should be and how it relates to Catholic teaching in the 1920s. This essay demonstrates that students reflected on women's issues and their own futures.
"The Millennium" is a student's prediction for politics, social issues, and domestic life in the United States from 1919-2019. These predictions are presented within a story. Josephine Ryan '21, the author, experimented with how the reversal of gender roles would change society. Note the line on page 10: "Wives were now the wage earners, their husbands were the housekeepers."
