Editorial Opinion
No May Day—At Last!
A ridiculous and quite unnecessary event has been
eliminated from the student's calendar of events—May ,
Day.
One thing is certain. No one will weep over its
absence, no► will the University suffer any loss of prestige
over the fact that coeds will not be prancing a►ound Old
Main lawn this spring.
Another event, Senior Class Night, will take its
place. The recognition that this event has not received
in the past _may be achieved through such excellent sub
stitution. The senior class as a whole, and not a small
number of "honored" coeds can enjoy Class Night events.
The reasons given for dropping the May Day are the
same ones that have been in the minds of a great many
students in years past, but which were thrown off lightly
by the people responsible for the event.
A new ti end which has been evident in the past semes
ter has been for the dean of women's office as well as
kVSGA to consider possible problems relating to the ad
ministration of women students and to come up with
positive solutions. This is a great improvement over the
old policies of leaving matters as they were for the sake
of remaining "stable."
For this recent measure of abandoning the May Day
tradition and for the action that is being taken to re
evaluate all policies pertaining to the women students,
those responsible must be commended.
Such an attitude can only result in a more responsible,
mature and satisfied body of women students at this
University
Trying to Save Money
More efficient operation of the University's academic
business staffs is one way the University might make
best of its present financial condition.
President Eric A. Walker in his State of the 'Uni
versity message to faculty and staff yesterday said that
one of the nine colleges may be used as an experiment
toward better efficiency.
- Under such an experiment, Prexy explained the or
ganization of one of the colleges would be completely
rearranged. Different operating systems would be tested.
This method would supply better information than if
smaller experiments were conducted in separate colleges.
Regardless of our financial situation, such an experi
ment would provide valuable information. And since the
whims of state legislators are so irregular, this informa
tion could be used to save money under any conditions.

Letters
Sr. Balks at Greek Critics
TO THE EDITOR: I would like
to personally commend The
Daily Collegian and Froth
magazine for their perfectly
timed attacks on the fraternity
system which are so explicitly
based on generalizations and
stereotypes which are sup
posedly reserved for fraternity
men themselves, It is truly
amazing that the entire system
can be so completely dragged
through the mire on what
amounts to three charges of
very questionable validity: (1)
pledging, (2) parties and (3)
scholarship.
The Daily Collegian and
Froth happen to be the only
two major means of communi
cation on the campus and can
therefore take any stand and
stifle criticism to any degree
desired, but since freedom of
the press is so jealously guard
ed we, the students, have no
voice in determining what
will be advocated in these our
official school publications. I
wonder to what degree these
two publications have studied
"Hell Week" and pledging
practices.
Most of the houses (I'm cer
tain names will be provided
upon request) have modified
p.m , 218
and humanized pledging, but
Froth in its latest huniorous
issue even manages to deride
sincere improvements. Freedom
of the press involves responsi-

bility, especially with the ab

munications.
Parties is there something
naturally unholy about enjoy
ing life on Saturday nights?
Are all fraternity men on the
way to becoming alcoholics?
In a letter to the editor one
can never develop arguments
in defense of twelve pages of
attack especially when it
will probably be cut anyway.
To The Freshmen: rush, look,
ask questions. If the answers
are vague or incomplete, ask
again; be pointed and rational;
and remember we could make
attacks on independent life
which are based on equally re
pugnant filth as lack of reli
gious emphasis (which Froth
stresses).
Fraternity men are men who
have decided that one way of
life has advantages over the
other way and are proud of
their choice. Listen to both
sides, scholars, it is the only
Way to make sensible choices.
—Steven Ott, '6O
