Prologue to Freshmen:
With a sigh of relief, the his
torian tells us that fall registra
tion is finally over. High school
graduation, entrance exams, and
placement tests are things of the
SOME ADVANTAGE
Let's begin our story with a
story . . . Once upon a hot Sep
tember, an excited Freshman boy
md a shinny-eyed freshman girl
hopped and skipped into the land
>f Crew-Neck-Sweater-and-Buc
<les-In-The-Back. Joyfully they
leaped into a maze of orientation,
leans, post-office boxes, and
housemothers, to be seen one week
later still standing in line for
math 11! Rush week came and
.vent. When the dust settled, our
Freshmen were discovered proudly
wearing small odd-shaped pieces
>f jewelry. 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. Par

past. 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.

SOME DISADVANTA
Along with the advantages
naturally come disadvantages. 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.
Your parents feelings must be

taken in consideration, as well as
your own. 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.
