Hdhxreen Semesters
l'n a preliminary discussion of
between-semester rushing last
night, four sororities expressed
opposition, two favored the pro
posal, two had reached no deci
sion, and the other three did not
discuss the plan. Further action
will rest until Panhellenic Coun
cil meets tonight.
In downing the suggestion Al
pha Epsilon Pi, Alpha Omicron
Pi, Chi Omega, and Kappa Al
pha Theta stressed the fact that
ii came too soon after finals and
that sorority women as well as
vushees would be w T orn out and
unable to put forth their best ef
forts.
Alpha Chi Omega and Kappa
Kappa Gamma tentatively ap
proved the plan since it avoids
extensive class cutting, and re
moves from the scene those
freshmen who are not being
rushed. Zeta Tau Alpha reached
»o decision.
