New Housing Policy Proposed
~  By ANDREA I.ANFIUXCO
A proposal to forbid students
who are members of social fra¬
ternities and sororities to live In
the residence halls at Fresno State
College will be on the agenda to¬
day at a meeting of the student
housing committee.
The committee, composed or
representatives from the dorms
nnd off campus housing plus fac¬
ulty members, will meet at 1 PM
In tho President' -. Conference
Room ln the Administration
Building.
The pn-tin.mil, drawn up hy tbe
rrrllege hori-tlng mtmlt, -reads: 1 ■
-"StodenU who are. members »r

may not lUtflllnte with a social fra¬
ternity or sorority while living in
a> rrwldenco lull, but may move
out at the end of any semester if
he or she desires to affiliate."
The controversial policy has al¬
ready stirred considerable talk
among the students — especially
those   affiliated   with   the   Greek
The biggest concern to Inter-
fn.'.-ri.i M i Council and I*anhellenie
Is Hi*** quest ton ot whether tbe
proposal Is fair to U.e Greek sys¬
tem since It could very well Wn.
der the rush season.
Some Greek affiliated students
have told Ths Collegian that they
are against the arguments used
In the proposal because they are
unsound.   In   part   the   proposal
says that "It Is not possible to
have any type of significant meet¬
ing In the residence hall on a
Monday night ... a large number
ot fraternity and sorority mem¬
bers living In the halls have no
real Interest In the hall program
at all . . . these attitudes cause
a real morale problem for the
residence hall staff . . ,•**■
Another problem—perhaps one
that Is ini.r.i sound — centers
around the financial pi-oblefn.The
Chancellor's Office of the Cali¬
fornia State Board of TrttstM-a
haa stated that tbe residence hall
must ftruuiru Its own operation
and that each individual school
la rhsrgixl with imylng 1U own
bills. To survive financially, th*
F8C halls need 100 per cent
cupanry   throughout   tlie   .-.<■:
The housing office says that
often pledges will bring pressure
on the college to allow the resi¬
dent to move out ot the ball and
Into a Greek house. This leaves
vacancies lu the ball which usu¬
ally cannot be filled because by
tbe time the semester Is,under
way, most everyone has decided
on a place to live.
Tho bousing staff submits that
other schools have solved the
"morale problems" (and the fi¬
nancial) by not allowing students
-iffiliated with fraternities and
sororities to live In the college
residence hall. This policy Is fol¬
lowed at University of California
at Berkeley.

Duties Asked Of
Queen Candidates

Sixteen royal candidates are
competing for the much coveted
title of 1963-64 Campus Queen,
but It will be up to the student
body to decide which gracious
coed will wear tbe crown and
rule the campus.
Six "first lady" hopefuls are
baing Introduced today and Fres¬
no State students will get a peek
at the final ten lovelies In tomor¬
row's Collegian.
One of these women will re¬
ceive the royal robes nnd scepter
of the cam pus monarch from
reigning queen Sue Srhrocdrr at
the Queen's Hall ni, Nov. 22—
but which  one?
To help the future queen's sub¬
jects decide who the new sove¬
reign will be. each regal contest¬
ant was asked what she felt were
the responsibilities of tho Cam¬
pus Queen and what It would
mean  to her to wear the shining

pus Queen. A Junior clementary

and  travel  after graduation.
When asked* what she felt were
the responsibilities of Campus
Queen, she replied;
"A Campus Queen Is.a symbol.
Her responsibility Is to create an
Image Of respect and dignity at
all limes for the school she repre¬
sents. She must be gracious,
friendly, and most important, her¬
self."
In answer to the question. Why-
do you want to be Campus Queen?
Miss Andrls said:
"Tiii-n- are many reasons why
a girl would like to be- Campus
QuceR*. The exprerienre would be
beneficial In helping her develop
ber per-wnality and enrich her
bark ground. She is also given an
opportunity to meet many new
people and make new friends.
"The most Important thing for
a Campus Queen to remember la
that she Is ih that position be¬
cause ot the faith people have '
placed tn her and that she must
prove herself worthy ot this faith
at all times."
Heather Calms, Epsilon PI
Tau's choice for campus sovereign,
feels thot "the responsibilities of
a Campus Queen are many and
varied. She should act as student
hostess for the college—on cam¬
pus as well as in the community.
She should be representative of
an outstanding coed with varied
interests.
"To be FSC Campus Queen
v,'.isl,l be one of the' greaU-st
honors as well as responsibilities
liestowed upon a college woman,"
she added.
