E X C E R P T S F R O M STENOGRAPHIC REPORT OF DISCUSSIONS OF N . P. C.

I t was the wish of the 12th N . P. C . to preserve f o r reference and use o f the
National Officers of the fraternities represented, a verbatim report of all dis-
cussions. This report which takes the place of the usual supplementary report,
has been sent in f u l l to the National Presidents. Excerpts are given below.
Among the recommendations submitted to the Congress, the f o l l o w i n g are of
general interest.

Resolved, That the 12th N . P. C . (1) "Take under considera tion the w o r k
of the Collegiate Bureau of Occupations, w i t h a view to some financial support
similar to that rendered by different colleges i n order that there may be co-
operation between the fraternities and the Bureau."

A g i f t of two hundred dollars to the Bureau f r o m the 12th Congress resulted
from this recommendation. The Congress is now enrolled with the Bureau in
its search f o r chaperones.

(2) "Take under consideration the establishment of a Pan-Hellenic head-
quarters at the Panama Exposition, with representative fraternity women i n
charge—a Bureau of general service to Greek interest." This recommendation
was l e f t to discretion of the Executive Committee.

(3) "Adopt a definite outline of study, which may assist National Officers
in educating underclassmen; thus enabling them to understand and when
necessary defend the fraternity system." This compilation, which i t is i n -
tended, will include a general study of Pan-Hellenism, its relation and applica-
tion to chapter and national life, and a resume of social service and philan-
thropic work being carried on by the fraternities w i l l be presented f o r considera-
tion and revision at the 1914 Congress.
