Clagett Announces
More Students
Eligible (or Rings
Donald Clagett, SGA vice
president and head of the class
ring committee, announced
yesterday that all certificate,
associate and baccalaureate de
gree students are eligible to
purchase class rings.
The decision to allow certificate
students to order rings was made
because “these people graduate
from Penn State too and should
be recognized,’’ Clagett said.
Clagett also noted that any
changes or alterations that stu
dents wish to make on their rings
should be brought to the Ring
committee for consideration. He
emphasized that ROTC insignias
and Greek affiliations should be
brought to the committee saying
that “uniformity in the rings was
important.’’
The committee further decided
that all official distributors of
class rings named in the past few
years must submit a description
of the class rings they offer for
the records of Associated Stu
dent Activities. Merchants from
downtown can obtain the descrip
tion forms, which are due in ten
days, from the ASA office in the
Hetzel Union Building.

ing the program.

The plan presented by Herbert
Goldstein, IFC rush chairman,
at this week’s meeting will be dis
cussed and voted on at the next
IFC meeting, said Ronald Novak,
IFC president.
Under the proposed, changes
the fraternity rushing program
will be deferred from Sept. 25
until the first day of the winter
term. This will give freshmen
a chance to orient, themselves
to the University system, Gold
stein said.
Open houses are planned for
two Sunday afternoons. Fresh
men would also be invited to at
tend two Saturday night parties
under this new rush proposal.
The IFC rushing committee de
cided that rushees should be re
quired to register their averages
at the IFC office on Jan. 3 and 4
to enable them to participate in
the winter term rush. First semes
ter students wishing to rush would
need a 2.2 all-University average
and all other men would need a
2.0 all-University average, under
the plan.
The proposed rushing program
for the winter term would last
six weeks. Bids would be extend
ed to rushees only during the fifth
and sixth week.
Students who did not make
the required rush average,
under the proposed IFC
changes, would be able to parti
cipate in the rushing orienta
tion, the open houses and the
Saturday night parties but
would not be able to rush.
The proposed program for the
spring term rush is. similar to the
winter term with rushing regis
tration, on March 21 and 22. The
same rules would prevail regard
ing the issuing of bids; however,
anyone would be able to rush.
The individual houses would be
allowed to make their own de
cisions concerning averages.

Yesterday’s snow was very
light in most sections of the state,
except for the southwestern quar
ter where 1 to 3 inches fell.
Tonight should be partly cloudy
and cool with a chance of some
very light rain or snow towards
morning. The minimum will be
about 32 degrees.
Mostly cloudy skies and little
change in temperature is indi
cated for tomorrow.
