The State
IFC Candi
By MARGE COHEN
• •
Collegian IFC Reporter
Nominees for tne offices on the executive board of
next year's Interfraternity Council answered questions on
their platforms last night at the regular IFC meeting.
Running for the office of president of IFC, Larry
Lowen, all-over Rush Chairman and former Commonwealth
Campus Rush Chairman, was the first candidate for this
'office to give his views on IFC policies. Asked', about the
current issue of fraternities being assessed with a school
tax by the borough of State College, Lowen said that "it
IFC is supposed - to be a service organization and if this is
a' problem, then IFC should do something about it." He
. said action on the school tax would fulfill IFC goals by
coalescing problems and doing something about them. In
LOwen's opinion, IFC is not "one block." but the unifying
and' coordinating factor for all of the "activities of all 57
fraternity houses and helps to solve their problems."
Lowen says the IFC president serves as an 'initiating
force for communication" among fraternities. He said lie
. would strive to improve the "lack of communication be
tween IFC executives and the administration, !fraternity
Itouse presidents, alums, and the fraternity man himself.'
tc'els he is qualified'to fulfill these tasks because of his
experience in IFC, his "great interest in people." This ability
,to get people motivated, his sincerity and his "strong
desire to get things clone."
Two other planks in his platform include a Fraternity
Placement Service that will serve to "decrease competition
for and give more of an opportunity to fraternitylmen with
'respect to jobs on campus."
He also plans •to urge assistance from alumni for
;summer employment opportunities and the establishment
of a larger fraternity scholarship fund.

' A brother at Delta Phi, Bob: Lewis is also seeking the
IFC presidency. He has cast an '!objective: view" on future
IFC endeavors and hopes to put an end•to "some of our
problems." He feels the fraternity men "send presidents of
their respective houses to IFC meetings every two weeks
and form their opinions as to what IFC is." Lewis does not
"think fraternity men feel IFC its an indiVidual organiza
tion." He stressed the idea that presidents "take activities
'back to individual fraternity men so tho can see what is
being done for him." With the "new acceptance' of IFC as
a service organization," Lewis feels that the onde-proposed

Ed Bassetti of Alpha Phi Delta is also
,seeking this
office. His platform includes a Co-op using funds from IFC
Concerts in order to "reduce the initial outlay eactChouse

ternities on campus should also be improved:A fraternity
scholarship program:is also one of his aims. '
A brother of Phi Gamma Delta, Bob Barton seeks the
office of Vice President while he "looks for a way we can
