AT DE PAUW UNIVERSITY

Sophomore pledging is being tried this year at DePauw and is
proving unsatisfactory. DePauw has no regular Pan-Hellenic, but
has an Intersorority Council, w i t h a member of the f a c u l t y as chair-
man. This year the University authorities compelled the sororities
to adopt second semester pledging allowing them to make their own
rushing rules and do their own penalizing f o r infractions of these
rules. The whole system was unsuccessful and the sororities have
decided to disband and organize on a different basis. As yet no
definite action has been taken.

Since receiving the foregoing news f r o m DePauw a report has been
received that an adequate Pan-Hellenic council has been formed,
but of course has not been long enough on t r i a l to test its w o r k i n g
ability.
