Groups Study
SFC Problems
The second session of the Interfraternity Council Workshop was
held last night with nine of the ten discussion groups meeting with
delegates from each of the 52 fraternities.
This is the third annual Workshop set up to discuss and try
to solve fraternity problems. The recommendations from each group
will, be presented to IFC at its
next meeting. The groups will
meet at 7 tonight.
Groups set up include ten areas
of fraternity life: chapter advisers,
rushing chairmen, house man
agers, treasurers, pledgemasters,
social chairmen, public relations,
scholarship, alumni relations, and
house presidents
Gerald Garman led the discus
sion of scholarship at Sigma Pi
leading to four main suggestions.
They are posting the members’
averages on the bulletin board,
keeping a weekly or monthly
check on the pledges’ grades, use
of a fining or demerit system to
keep study hours as quiet as pos
sible, and possibly an award for
the man with the greatest pro
gress from semester to semester.
Kaufman Chairman
A discussion of the duties of the
fraternity presidents' was led by
Arthur H. Reede, professor of eco
nomics.- He suggested that chap
ter meetings have a definite time
limit becaiuse the trend ,of thought
is lost, members may have blue
books or other studying, and a
short iheeting is more efficient.
The possibility of the vice presi
dent being a figurehead without
specific duties in some fraternities
was brought up and it was sug
gested that the president delegate
some of his duties to prevent one
person from having all the re
sponsibility and work. John
Kaufman was chairman of this
discussion held at Phi Sigma Kap
pa.
The meeting of pledge masters
led by William Hafley at Alpha
Sigma Phi felt that pledge unity
and scholarship were the impor
tant problems. They agreed with
the scholarship group that definite
study hours be set and enforced,
but went further by suggesting
that letters be sent to professors
of pledges to discuss their pro
gress.
Social Aspects Aired
Social chairmen met at Kappa
Delta Rho with Paul Asplundh as
chairman. Harold White of; the
recreation department discussed
the place of informal games in the
fraternity social set-up saying
that recreation majors were avail
able to help plan parties.
Fraternities inviting members
of one or two other houses to
their, weekend parties was recom
mended 2 by the public 'relations
group as a way to promote good
feeling among the different hous
es. Faculty-administration' rela
tions could be improved by
inviting them to dinner at the
fraternity.
Robert Evans led the discussion
of alumni relations at Alpha Zeta
with money and -Homecoming
Weekend the primary topics. It
was decided that an Alumni board,
an open letter of expenses and im
provements, and invitations to
more of the fraternity, functions
would give the alumni more in
terest in their fraternity.
