    The National Fraternities, on recommendations from the National
Pan-Hellenic Conference have passed the following regulations:

institution where two or more National Sororities exist; and they
shall consist of one active and one alumna member of each Sorority.

     2. A pledge day shall be adopted by the National Sororities in
each college where two or more of them exist.

     3. The pledge day in each college shall be fixed by the Pan-
Hellenic Association existing there.

    4. No student shall be asked to join a Sorority before she has
matriculated.

     5. Matriculation shall be defined as the day of enrollment as
a student in the university or college.

     The National Pan-Hellenic Conference has made, among others,
the following recommendations:

     1. That the Pan-Hellenic Association shall consist not only of
the National Sororities, but also of such locals as they may see fit to
admit. (Report of Sixth Conference.)

     2. That Pan-Hellenics endeavor to restrict the expense, number
and duration of social functions and engagements by women's fra-
ternities as far as is compatible with local conditions. (Seventh Con-
ference. )

     3. That Pan-Hellenics be careful not to create feeling between
fraternity and non-fraternity college women through too many or
through inopportune Pan-Hellenic meetings and functions. (Seventh
Conference.)

     4. That Pan-Hellenics are urged to avoid all public press notori-
ety and to endeavor always to keep the respect of their university and
town communities. (Seventh Conference.)

     5. That each Pan-Hellenic have some general meetings to which
all fraternity members are invited and allowed to take part in dis-
cussions; meetings to read and discuss Pan-Hellenic Conference Re-
ports ; shortcomings of our last compact; effects of a Sophomore
pledge day in our college, etc. (Seventh Conference.)

     6. That Pan-Hellenics have meetings twice a month.
     7. That Pan-Hellenics have a conference with Deans of Women
and other faculty members at least once a semester.
