Dean of Women
Issues Letter
In ifteiw of this , week's concen
trated sorority rushing . and ru_s.hee
parties, Miss Charlotte E. Ray,
Dean of Women, issues the follow
ing open letter:
To Members of Women's
Fraternities:
This week presents your annual
- opportunity to prove that you are
a working unit of the College,
which every one of your national
organizations expects of you: col
lectively and individually you are
able to show your efficiency in
promoting the program of Penn
State. During this busy -rushing
season, there are two things to
have in mind daily if you believe
the fraternity system has a place
in education and if you- wish the
faculty_ to credit your loyalty:
1. See that your members and.
prospective m e rii b e r s — maintain
perfect attendance with all as
signments prepared.
2. Eliminate long sessions and
guard your health so wisely that
neither you nor the Health Serv
ice may ask why we justify a
program .that leaves students
worn-out and worried.
Where there are so many com
petent and thoughtful, students,
these two conditions are not hard
to meet, but their observance will
do wonders to retain the esteem
that you value with fellow-stil
dents and faculty.
Sincerely yours,
Charlotte .E. Ray.
