At a recent meeting of repro- I

Government which ended in the!
revision mid interpretation of
cer t a in W. S. G. A. rules, both
organizations expressed them-1
selves as being strongly oppos
ed tc Sunday evening dates in
fratern ity house:(. Although no
ride has forbidden women stu
dents. in so many words, to go
to chapter houses on Sunday ev
inlay. other regulations have im
plied that such visiting. if re
portui, would he regarded as a
punishable offense. Disregard :
for this unwritten custom hits..
prompted its formal Lion in spe-'
rifle terms. ;111(1 its enforcement
is the aim Of Student Board and
the Women's Student Govern.:
Government.
It is not the rule for a woman
to drop into a man's, home or.
chili house whenever she xvills.
(this did not originate at Penn ,
State) : and the majority of fra
ternity men do not want their
houses overrun by girls on Sun
day night. These two facts
might suffice to prevent infrac
tions of the rule. were it not for
the underlying cause which still
remains: women students have
no adequate place at which they
might entertain callers. Imag
ine all the girls in Women's
Building. Alite I or the cottag
e-% spending the evening in the
space allotted to them for that
purpose?
Yet the alternatives to this
form of entertainment are limit
ed. A girl who has a date on
Sunday night may go to church,
which ends long before ten o'-
clock. walk the streets, which is
tiring, and hard on the soul
(sic!) or go to a fraternity
house. where she may sit com
fortably before a lire.
Realizing that an ideal solu
tion for this difficult situation is
impossible. the W. S. G. A. ,has
(1611 C its best to make its require
ments reasonable by granting
permission for women students
to be in fraternity buildings un
til
after the evening meal on Sun
day. It is to be hoped that stu
dents wiil realize the difficulties
which confront the Women's
Student Government and assume
their share of the responsibility
for the welfare of the College.
find the purpose of the College
will not have been fulfilled until
new dormitories and recreation
halls are constructed for the wo
men of Penn State.
