bane of f rosh haze days
Freshman hazing, that terror to
the lives of all new students, still
holds sway at many of the
women's colleges and co-educa
tional universities. At least, so
says Virginia Hanson in the Octo
ber issue of Mademoiselle maga
zine. The "green" clas at Sweet
Briar college is subjected to a
three weeks' period of persecu
tion, with the end of the time
freshman-sophomore day. At 6
a. m. that fateful morning, all
freshmen must appear wearing a
dress backwards, a huge placard
with the freshies name on it tied
around the neck, braided pigtails
dovn the back with a middle part.
Makeup is entirely taboo on that
day except for masses of green
eye shadow.
Over their arms, waiter style,
they carry towels to kneel upon,
and wet wash clothes to wipe the
smiles off their faces. All day long
they are at the mercy of the
sophomore class. First they must
learn every senior's name and
salaam in true oriental style each
time one appears. Not only that,
but they must also work. Typical
orders are to scrub a flight of
stairs with a toothbrush, make
beds, carry books, and recite bril
liantly and spontaneously at any
time.
"Goon Day," Duke university's
annual hazing period, found be
wildered freshmen in bathing caps
with their ears left protruding,
tight skirts above the knee, black
knee length stockings, and high
heeled white shoes. To complete
the typical goon, all noses had to
be vividly roughed.

good clash in costume. If the cos
tume clash is not vivid enough for
the sophomore's taste, the poor
freshman must go back and
change.
Stephens college features a
Hell Day" informal initiation
day for the sororities. Then
pledges must wear bizarre cos
tumes, carry cigarettes and candy
for upperclassmen, and obey or
ders. Last year one unfortunate
undergraduate was forced to crawl
on her hands and knees into the
dining room, deliver endless
speeches on a variety of subjects,
propose to one of her teachers.
and eat with her mittens on and
her chair turned backwards to the
table.
The class of '40 at Connecticut
College for Women, would like to
drop the whole business of initia
tion and give the freshmen a
whopping big party instead. One
dignified senior there well remem
bers the day when she had to
wear a lampshade on her head.

and artificial moles made of chew
ing gum.
All of which reminds: "There is
no place like Nebraska."
