THE FRATERNITY SITUATION

MISSISSIPPI

The decision of the Chancery Court of Lafayette County holding
the Anti-fraternity Law unconstitutional was reversed on July 19 by
the Supreme Court of Mississippi. An anti-fraternity pledge is an
entrance requirement.

MICHIGAN

"Our purpose from the beginning has been to work with the clubs
in the improvement which we know they themselves have desired.
We have no intention either now or two years hence to abolish
any of the clubs. We are simply suggesting that the clubs in
their various groups take action along certain general lines, and we
are asking them within a certain time to act upon our suggestions."—

PROFESSOR LLOYD,

Chairman of Faculty Committee on House Clubs.
Quoted from Alpha Phi Quarterly.

OHIO

In Ohio State University an anti-fraternity paper has been insti-
tuted, "conceived in oppression and dedicated to justice", and given
over to attacks on fraternities.—The Cross Keys.

ALABAMA

In Alabama the anti-fraternity leaders have collected a fund
amounting to $2500 to finance a campaign to procure legislative
abolition of fraternities in the two state schools.

WISCONSIN

There is in Wisconsin a survey committee which has under examina-
tion the question as to the University's usefulness to the people
of the state, and they are sending out to these erstwhile terrors of
the undergraduate world, an examination blank twenty pages in
length. The examination is being conducted by a senator and the
governor of the state.
