   Mrs. Collins outlined the plan of substituting holders of fellowships f o r
chaperones in f r a t e r n i t y houses so that all the chaperones would be cultured
women. I n order to carry out this plan the co-operation of the colleges would
be necessary so that they would give free tuition while the fraternities would
furnish room and board to the chaperones.

   The Deans expressed great favor in regard to the uniform scholarship blanks
and the u n i f o r m house rules and, while they agreed w i t h the N . P. C. that some
plan suggested by Mrs. Collins. Several of the Deans spoke of the women's
some of them saw many grave difficulties which would arise i n carrying out the
plan suggested by Mrs. Collins. Several o f the Deans spoke o f the women's
f r a t e r n i t y houses as being great helps i n solving many problems and many
agreed that the nearer to an ideal home the fraternity house can be made the
more good i t w i l l reflect upon the general college community.

   The joint meeting was both beneficial and interesting. The Deans were very
cordial and expressed sincere gratification at the increasing co-operation be-
tween the N . P. C. and the college authorities.

           INTIMATE CHAT CONCERNING THE ALUMWE

                       T H E WOMAN'S WHO'S W H O I N AMERICA

   "The Trident Editor devoted about sixteen hours going over this
list of sketches to see how the fraternity women had 'made good.'
As all but A A A names are unfamiliar, it is possible some others
were overlooked. There were but seventy-three in the list who had
graduated prior to 1888, the year of T r i Delta's founding. Prior
to then there were but six fraternities with a comparatively small
membership and the majority of those too young to have done
a great deal. I n all there are 377 fraternity women given, though
aside from the four—two K K T and two IT B <£ known to the
editor, who gave no fraternity affiliation, there may be others. The
377 are divided as follows: K K r 116, K A © 85, H B * 41, A T 37,

A A A 28, A * 26, T 4> B 14, A O H 10, S K 6, A H A 4,

A X f) 4, A T A 3, X Q 3, A Z 1."—Quoted.

   The Trident Editor's report is most interesting, though necessarily
incomplete as in very many cases fraternity affiliations were not
stated.

   Alpha Omicron Pi instead of having ten "notables", has thirty-
three, which are given here, with chapter affiliations:
