The Source Is the Evil
"Obliterate the source and you have removed all evil," gays'
the old adage. It lathe general consensu* that the present set-up
of in tor-fraternity council rushing rules is the seat of all friction:
between fraternities. Those rules are admittedly vague, inadequate, and easily misconstrued.
Coneequently The Collegian has submitted the following to take;
,the place of the.old rushing rules add to safeguard sgalnst any;
(urther disputes in the council:
Abolish {be prawn I roles that restrict rushing; have pledging.
take place at a specified time during (he seventh week.
This plan would not limit the org-ni nations to Any rushing
program during the first six weeks. Fraternities could ruth as
they saw fit during that time, but actual pledging could not take
jptacc until the specified time, and would go through the same
| routine with the dean of men.
I Under this plan there would be no possible misinterpretations,
\ no hair-line decisions to draw on what constitutes rushing. There
[would also be no silence week which, in the past, has been a spot
{for council wrangling.
Since all fraternities are on equal financial basin, the extent of
, rushing during the first six weeks needs not be regulated. Fraternities would necessarily confine their rush programs to the ex-
jtent of their financial limit. As result all of these programs would
• be practically tho same.
i This rushing program together with Dean Novell's plan of
■ bringing faculty mandate Into the extreme cases of dispute among
j fraternities would make the inter-fraternity council a strong, untitled, force that would actually Ik nrganizesd for the benefit of the
!cotlege and its member fraternities.
| Leader, of some of the groups have already hoard this plan and
have fount it to be "airtight," They predict that it will be effective bcr.li—e it removes the source of all the difficulties and
provides for adequate disposition „f dissension by means of faculty advice and judgment.
