By a 13 to six straw ,vote, Panhellenic Council.-Tuesday. night
favored holding one , formal rushing period per year. The formal
rushing would take place in the spring, with informal rushing during
the fall: A committee will work on the details for the plan.
Proposed revisions in the .Panheconstittition were read by
Jane Stieber.. The .council - will vote on , the revisions Tuesday
The proposed revisions include! _
electing the Panhel recording- and
corresponding-secretaries and:the
treasurer before installing the
president. and changing the terms
of officers in May instead of April.
The offices of president-,Ldvice
president ar e rotated , - annually
among the sororities.'
New Delegates
' The revisions call for terming a
coed a pledge as soon as she acr
cepts a sorority's bid, and limit
ing the period a woman may re
main a pledge to one year. One
who breaks a pledge would be
ineligible to pledge another sor
ority for one calendar year from
the date the pledge was broken.
The official Panhel delegates,
according to the revisions. would
be the president and rush chair
man of each sorority. At present
the rush 'chairman and assistant
rush chairman are the delegates.
Marilyn Levitt, Panhel president,
said having the sorority presidents
as delegates would help strengthen
Panhel.
A regular alternate would be
named to Panhel, instead of any
member of a sorority serving .as
alternate, as is the case under
the present systeth.
' Greek Week Program
Under the revised constitution,
the five council* 'officers would
form an executive committee
which would approve presidential
appointments.
Patricia Acosta, Greek Week
co-chairman, outlined the sche
dule for the week. On Saturday,
sororities and fraternities will
help clean up State College play
grounds. A broadcast is scheduled
for Sunday.
Alumni affairs will be held on
Monday. Exchange dinners be
tween fraternity men and sorority
women are scheduled for Tuesday,
with open houses at fraternity
houses on Wednesday. The Woody
Herman jazz concert and the IFC-
Panhel ball will take place April
4, with house, parties on April 5.
Theme of Ball
The council rejected a motion
to name one outstanding sorority
pledge by a 16 to three vote.
Marlene Heyman, co-chairman
of the IFC-Panhel Ball, reported
that the ball will be decorated
in a Manhattan theme.
Miss Levitt reminded the coun
cil that, according to the Senate
committee on student welfare,
sororities and fraternities are co
responsible for observing College
regulations when they co-enter
tain at a fraternity house.

Fioht - Ro* Students
Get Highest Grades
Whether you like it or not, if you sit up. front in your classes,
You're likely to learn more. This was found to be true by "Bud" P.
Hill, instructor in the Economics department.
Ina classroom of six rows, the semester average of those who
sit in the 'first three rows is 1.61, while the last three rows of students
rack up ari average of .84, he
discovered. •
There isn't too much difference
in a small classroom, but the larg
er the room, the better off the
students in the front rows are,
he said. According to Hill's com
putations, occupants of back seats
flunk three times as often as
those who sit up front.
Hill attributes this to the fact
that students have a natural ten
dency to stay awake and, remain
alert when under the instructor's
eye, while those in the back ex
perience less compunction when
they read another text book or
the Collegian.
In one of Hill's economics class
es, five 3's and one failing grade
were distributed to occupants of
the first three rows. On the other
hand,. the last three rows got the
booby prize of one 3' and six fail
ing grades.
Now, if- your last name begins
with a Z, don't give up. You may
be the lucky exception who car
ries off the one 3 alloted to the
back rows.
