The rest of the story s short: they made their grades, joined the ranks of Greeks and ived happily ever after in glorious >rotherhood and sisterhood. The Question Now to the question: Is this :tory really true or is it merely in Ivy-league fairy tale? Seriously, the answer is that it -ontains a little of each. True, a sorority or fraternity is m social organization. Socializa Lion and recreation are not their mly functions, however. Higi moral and ethical standards are rncouraged and strengthened by most phases of Greek life.

Year after year, about this time, another topic is introduced and quickly takes its stardust sprinkled place above the prac ticalities previously mentioned: npmely, to pledge or not to pledge. S including the religious organiza tions, is especially emphasized by these groups, particularly with an interest toward developing poten tial leaders. Neither is scholarship, the most important part of a college educa tion, ignored in the excitement of dances, parties and intramural sports. It is of such importance, in fact, that some groups conduct special required study halls for members. Common Interests In a well-chosen sorority or fra ternity a person is surrounded by a group sharing some of the back grounds, interests, and apprecia tions. This is a tight knit group in the sense that all feel loyalty to a certain code, set of princi pals, or particular ideal. This feeling of sharing deep rooted beliefs brings about the sister or brother feeling that is so often ridiculed but true, none theless. In another sense members are definitely individual. Close friendships are established with both independents and other groups. Taste in dress, speech, and other mannerisms are definitely dic tated. To many Freshmen away from home and - other close ties, the warm friendship extended by sorority or fraternity is very wel come. Of Events I p.m.-Freshman "Y" luncheon, Russell House Auditorium.

All do not apply to all persons, just as all advantages do not apply to all persons. When considering the pros and cons of a situation, how ever, all facts must be carefully examined. One of these, perhaps the most important is the amount of free time a person will have. There is no denying that membership in a sorority or fraternity demands an enormous amount of time. Not only are there regular and call meetings, but other "outside" projects such as song fest or stunt night. practice. Rush plans, intramural sports competition, and drop-ins are all part of a Greek's regular schedule. This is a prob lem each person must solve indi vidually. He must decide for him self how much time will be avail able from studying to devote to a social organization. Finances Another extremely important aspect is that of finances. In formation will be made available to all who are interested in find ing out exactly how much is ex pected by different groups for pledging, dues, activation and pins. It must be remembered, though, that all can not be seen on the surface. Something will always unexpectedly come up that will demand extra funds.

They will be footing a lot of bills, remember, especially for the girls. They should be as fully informed about finances as yourself. There is one argument brought up from time to time that, if true, is a strange disadvantage. It is a matter that varies with the per son and so must be considered. If a person limits his circle of friendships to only his Greek brothers or sisters by rooming, eating, and associating with them constantly, he is denying himself one of the greatest joys of college life, establishing many and varied friendships. Must Ile Compatable One last disadvantage is that of being certain that you will be comipatable in the group you choose. A more miserable state of affairs can not be imagined than being a member of a group with whom you have nothing in common. Epilogue: As you consider this question from all angles, please remember that this is a decision based on your own personal needs, and not those of your roommate or the person next door. The most important part of college life is not whether or not you are a sorority or fraternity member, but rather, whether or not you are successful and happy in your adjustment to a new phase of life. rflo,#ol Boy With 'heek," etc.) E AS BEFORE year of writing this column ue to explore the issues that >f camtpus America-burning elnotlhers he forced to retire ins and robes be allowed at )ild proctors be armed?" and mitted in the stacks?" and rank of associate professor arriages?" and "Should cap he abolished?" {r/'/6c be dbo/YAdP ait ed sponsorsl' this column. mlakfes Philip Morris ciga b oro cigarettes.
