Interfraternity Council meets
to interpret new rush rules
In fpile of lefene .
Rosenlof urges graduates
to continue their education
Plans for fraternity rush week beginning Sat-
will be discussed and new rules interpreted at the
first Interfraternity Council meeting tomorrow at
4 p. m., Ren Bukacek, Interfraternity secretary, an
nounced yesterday stating that the main purpose
of the meeting is to establish better relations be
tween fraternities on the campus and to do away
vith unethical rushing.
At 10:30 Saturday morning a meeting will be
held for prospective rushees. Col. C. J. Frank
furter will speak to the freshman, and Kenny
Holm, president of Interfraternity Council, will ex
plain the rushing rules so as to prevent any mis
understanding. All rushees are required to be present at this
meeting.
First rush week under secretariat.
This year is the first that rush week has func
tioned under the new secretariat instituted last
spring. Bukacek, the secretary, has as his as
sistants under-secretaries Art Rivin, Jim Vand
ingham , Stan Maly, and Robert Mills.
"We hope the fraternities work together to
make this rush week a credit to the fraternity
system on this campus," commented Bukacek.
Rules for rush week follow. The Interfraternity
Council emphasized rule no. 7. stating that every
rushee must file a list of his dates in person
at the Interfraternity Council office, 305 of the
Union, prior to his first date. For this reason,
Bukacek will be in the office from 11 a. m. until
9 p. m. all three days of rush week.
Rush week rules.
1. No rushee may have more than one date
per day with the same fraternity; nor may he
have more than three dates with the same fra
ternity during rush week. Rushee shall be ob
ligated to fulfill his first date with each and every
fraternity with which he has dates registered. All
subsequent dates may be broken if he person
ally files the pledge assumption .card at .the
council's office. If the pledge is broken he can
not pledge again for thirty days.
2. No rushee may in any way except a pledge
button until he has filed the pledge assumption
card at the council's office.
3. It is the responsibility of the rushee to keep
his dates. A fraternity can pick up rushees 15
minutes before rush date.
4. Dates shall in no way be split between two
or more fraternities. The full date must be kept
with one fraternity.
5. No rushee may remain in any fraternity house
at any time other than during his bona fide dates.
A rushee may not use a fraternity as his place of
residence during rush week, or the preceding weeks
and the pledge may not move into the house
until noon the day following rush week.
6. No fraternity man shall communicate with
any rushee other than by phone except bona fide
dates.
7. Every rushee must file a list of his dates
in person, at the Interfraternity Council office,
305 Union, prior to his first date. This does not
prohibit rushees from making and filing new or
additional dates in open periods after rush week
starts with fraternities not already dated.
9. The list of dates submitted by the rushee
shall be accepted as correct in case of differences
between it and the fraternity's willed dates.
9. Any man who breaks a pledge, during the
first month of pledgeship will be prohibited from
pledging any other fraternity until the following
semester.
10. A fee of $100 must be paid by each rushee
at the time when his dates are filed. Those who
do not participate in rush week, but who later
pledge a fraternity, must register and pay the
$1.00 fee at the office of Interfraternity Affairs be
fore pledging.
11. Any man who participates in rush week
and fails to pledge by 12:00 noon, the day following,
may not pledge for 14 days.
12. Violation of any of the above rules pro
hibits the rushee from pledging for 30 days.
Citing the importance of educa
tion to the maintenance of national
defense and personal well-being,
Dr. G. W. Rosenlof, registrar and
director of admissions, urges young
V (
Lincoln Journal.
G. W. ROSENLOF.
. . . cites need for leadership
people just out of high school or
already in college not to neglect
their education because of present
world conditions.
Rosenlof warns young people
that when the present world crisis
is past, America will need trained
leadership for the great task of
... in universities
reconstruction, and that that lead
ership is being formed in Amer
ica's schools.
"The government itself recog
nizes the importance of this mat
ter," Rosenlof declares, "by Its re
fusal to draft youth under 21 and
by its deferment of those who are
studying to become technologists,
doctors, scientists and other pro
fessional men deemed as essen
tial." The best opportunity for profit
able and successful employment in
the future will go to those who
have continued their educational
advancement, according to Rosen
lof. Young men can serve their
country best by continuing their
education as long as possible, he
paid.
"Universities and colleges every
where are seeking to maintain all
of their programs on the same
high level of proficiency and to
improve their offerings wherever
possible. Young people should take
advantage of this situation to pre
pare themselves for service to
their country in the time of their
most productive years," Rosenlof
said.
