PAGf TWO The Deferred Hashing Question Deferred Rush Would Lessen Fraternity-Freshmen Contact By DICK DRAYNE Second of a Series Would deferred rushing mean a freshman would not even see the inside of a fraternity bouse during his first semester? Theoretically, yes, although the plan now under consideration might make a few ex ceptions.

Cook said in an interview. Em ployers are aware that the stu dent doesn’t study and go to classes all the time and want to know whether he has worked part-time or has participated in some other phase of college life. "Of course,” he said, “activ ities are more important for cer tain types of jobs than others.” They are not so important for an undergraduate applying for a job in research or laboratory work as they are for someone inter ested in sales, personnel, retail ing, or industrial relations, be cause of the way in which his' personality fits into his job and because of the fact that his cur riculum will allow him more time for participation in activ ities while in college. Cook stud he thinks students should participate in activities but not at the expense of acad emic study. A student should have something beside his studies to show how he can utilize lime. Even an engineer, he said, can find time for an engineering so ciety, but those who have writ ten for a student publication or have done something else along this line, can show a prospective employer his ability to express himself. Cook qualified “just being in an activity” and participating in it. “If you enter an activity with the idea of giving to it, the re sults will show,” he said.

Other reasons, listed in order of rank, were poor personal appear ance, overbearance, inability to express themselves clearly, no purpose or goal for which they were seeking a job, indifference and lack of confidence or poise.
