October 30, 2006—Each year, The WestSide Spirit, the largest community newspaper on the west side of Manhattan, salutes New Yorkers whose accomplishments deserve to be highlighted.

The 2006 WESTY Awards (for "West Side Spirit Thanks You") were presented on Wednesday, October 25. Barnard's Dean Dorothy Denburg '70 was among the awardees. Dean Denburg was honored for her dual commitment to New York City and Barnard College.

During her tenure as dean, Denburg's goal has been to further involve Barnard with the community. "The College has seen its identity as intertwined with the city for most of its history," Denburg said. "Back when I was a student in the '60s, the College catalog said the city was the College's laboratory."
