Committe greek inti By YVETTE LATORRE Staff writer The names of students who will lead study committees on the C I IP/^> - f/iauiiku uicigci ui use s raciany divided greek system will be announced later this week, the greek affairs director said. Two committees will draft a constitution and make recommendations for forming a desegregated greek system, said director Melody Hokanson, who will serve as an ex-officio member on the committees. One committee will study fraternities and the other will study sororities, Hokanson said. Under the current system, Panhellenic Association governs white sororities, Intrafraternity Council governs white frater nitics and Pan-Hellenic Council governs black sororities and fraternities. The committees will be working toward a May 15 deadline to form the new structure. "Basically, we're going to develop a structure for a sorority council and fraternity council," said Jerry Brewer, dean of student life. Brewer will serve as chairman of the committees. "How we'll go about that is going to have to wait until the L/ctom nnnr Y V 1UIII upijl and the abilit i is completely campuses. / a matter of in- Since the pi system, which 1 sity nothing, he ceedingly relia! ance agreement system for off:lops newer and plaints earlier, be installed into s the system its There have d happen every distance dialing are being studii e increasing the rected soon. ] id. satisfied with tli in be used to tie has not receiv< ata applications problems were ilso wants to re- "I think the I anH fhrpp-wav tliini/ ? tin11rw 11 a 51/1115 of problems.

Brewer said the committees will "collect as much information and as miirh inmit ac hip Mn " In order to do this, Brewer said the committees will look at greek systems at other schools. "We benefit from the trials and tribulations other universities have experienced," Pruitt said. "We'll see the good and bad other institutions have tried" in conducting similar changes. "It's a wonderful opportunity for the students to get involved in a decision-making process," Pruitt said.
