- Jane Gould
, the first permanent director of Barnard's Center for Research on Women, was honored at a Sept. 29 reception for her new book, Juggling: A Memoir of Work, Family and Feminism. Now 79, Gould, a 1940 graduate, has been associated with Barnard for decades, first as director of placement and later as the founder of the Women's Center and the Women's Studies department. Her book has been published by the Feminist Press of the City University of New York. The term "juggling," when defining the attempted balance of family and career responsibilities, is so identified with Gould that she is cited as the source by Webster's Ninth New Collegiate Dictionary.
- Herbert Pardes
, vice president for health sciences and dean of the College of Physicians and Surgeons, will receive the Rhoda and Bernard Sarnat Prize in mental health from the Institute of Medicine at its annual meeting on Oct. 21. The award recognizes individuals, groups or organizations for outstanding achievement in improving mental health.
- David J. Sainsbury
, chairman of J. Sainsbury and a 1971 graduate of Columbia Business School, will receive the 1997 Botwinick Prize in Business Ethics from Dean Meyer Feldberg in a ceremony in Uris Hall on Oct. 13. Sainsbury is chairman of a 122-year-old family business that owns Britain's second largest and most profitable supermarket chain. The award is named for Benjamin Botwinick, a 1926 Columbia Business School graduate who has had close ties to Columbia for more than 70 years.
- Journalism Professor Samuel G. Freedman has won the Society of Professional Journalists Distinguished Teaching in Journalism Award as "an outstanding educator who has made significant contributions to the profession." Columbia's SPJ Board made the nomination, one of 200 from around the country.
