Rushing and Greek Week
were the major items discussed
by the Panhellenic Council
last night.
The council voted to change the
rule stating that a rushee may be
invited to the suite a maximum
of four times before she may be
issued a bid. The rule now states
that a rushee must be invited and
accept at least three but not more
than four invitations to the suite
before she is eligible for a bid
by that sorority.
In addition to the semi-strict
silence which is in effect from
Sept. 18 to Oct. 5 between all
sororities and rushees, the coun
cil also voted against open con
tact for all sorority women with
freshman women for the duration
of the informal rush period.
Contacts between freshman
women and Greek women are
limited to classroom, campus and
counseling activities.
A strict silence will be observed
between all sorority women and
rushees from Oct. 5 until ribbon
ing on Oct. 7.
In a straw vote, Panhel voted
to accept the changes in Greek
Week as recommended by the
Greek Week committee. The work
projects will be carried out
throughout the year instead of
just on the one day during Greek
Week. Points from these projects
will be accumulated and will
count towards the Greek Week
trophy the following year.
It Was also agreed to have fac
ulty talks following the exchange
dinners during Greek Week.
These dinners will all be held at
the fraternities instead of some
in the residence dining halls as
in previous years.
