THE DAILY COLLEGIAN
Free Contact Ends
At Nine Tonight
All contact between sorority
women and rushees must stop at
9 o'clock tonight, as a strict silent
period will be enforced until 2
p. m. Saturday, announced Pauline
E. Keller '43, Panhellenic presi
dent.
Sororities are to deliver. formal
coffee hour invitations between 9
and 10 o'clock tonight, but are to
observe silent period regulations,
Miss Keller stressed. Rushees
are to take written replies to
Panhellenic post office before 5
p. m. tomorrow:
Formal coffee hours are sche
duled from 2 to 3:30 p. m. and
from 3:45 to 5:15 p. m. Saturday.
Rushees may attend one affair at
each time, according to Miss Kell
er. Another silent period will be
in effect from 5:15 p. m. Saturday
Until bids are accepted Sunday.
Rushees living in town are to
call for party invitations at Pan
hellenic post office in Student
Union after being notified by
phone. reminds Miss Keller.
'We 51ze Women.
Panhel Is Judge—Not Policeman;
Big Sisters Are Aids—Not Rushers
Established on campus 15 years
ago, Panhellenic Council has fos
tered cooperation with the admin
istration and consideration of
freshman and transfer rushees.
By Panhellenic Council we
mean the 14 sororities. which com
pose it, and this ultimately bciils
down to Greek coeds themselves.
Because of misinterpretations,
more factual than rumored, we
wish to point out that during rush
ing, a committee appointed by the
Council functions as a judicial
body—to judge the cases brought
before it by its member sororities,
to determine whether a rushing
code rule has been violated, •and
to pass sentence in accordance
with the violation.
We emphasize the fact that the
Council is not a policeman, that
it can not act unless a specific in
stance of violation is reported to
it. For example,. a hint or sug
gestion that party invitations have
been issued in advance by some
sorority will not be followed up.
A rumor •started among sorority
women is far more harmful than
an open report to. Panhellenic
Council, and unless violations are
reported _immediately 'they will
not be acted upon, stated Miss
Mary Jane §tevenson, assistant to
'the dean of women and Panhell
enic advisor.
ATTENTION TOWN RUSHEES—
.PauIine E. Keller '43, Panhellenic
president, reminds all town rush
ees to call for' party invitations at
Student Union after being notified
by phone.
Women students
sororities who have.been assigned
or who have volunteered to assist
in freshman orientation, took an
unwritten oath to keep sorority
pressure out of the picture. Pan
hellenic • Council granted these
students special permission to deal
with freshmen during silent per
-lads: • •
Panhellenic rushihg code speci
fies that there shall be no break
fast, luncheon, dinner, or movie
dates. Is it merely coincidence
that many more sorority women
are Big Sisters than, independent
women? Have sorority women
taken advantage of the Big-Little
Sister policy?
Again the code states that there
shall be no dates made before .8
a. m. or after 6 p. m. and that so
cial pledges shall not assist in
rushing. More rumors?
If so, we hope that they fast
disappear, and that Penn State wo
men continue to render service
with a true spirit—of sincerity.
Third in • a series -of defense
stamp sales will•be conducted out
side Atherton Hall dining rooms
and in McAllister Hall lobby at
6:20 tonight, Miss Crossman re-'
minds coeds.
