liorter Study Plan
c that its new Officer Edu
cation Program will be sub
mitted to Congress for legis
lative approval early in the
!it season," stated Col.
Frank E. Sullivan, professor
of air science at the Univer
sity. the new program, which
will affect 187 colleges and
universities including Nebras
ka, will feature the adoption
of a two-year course of study
and the addition of a scholar
ship of $2200.
The present ROTC program
quires candidates for com
missions to participate in
four academic years of in
struction n the college cam
pus, thus denying eligibility
to nearly 65 per cent of all
male college students, es
pecially those who are en
rolled in junior colleges.
Under the new legislation
all male college students
would have the opportunity to
compete for commissions in
the U.s. Air f orce.
The scholarship is expected
to make it easier for more
students to finish their college
education and at the same
time to participate in the

know wont hurt them.
And you might be right
But think a minute. Was
It worth It?
Was the death or the
serious injury, or even the
prospect of such, really
worth It?
What about the pretense
under which Ronnie Rush
e pledged your humble
Fraternity r sorority?
Remember those goals
you pledged to when you
were initiated? Look back
over that Constitution,
that Ritual. What about
those scriptures on which
your fraternity or soror
ity has its basis.
Where would Alpha
Alpha be today if it
weren't for these ideals?
Ever ask yourselves
why some administrators
and faculty people look on
the Greek system with dis
favor? Maybe back In the hay
day of the fraternity
world the educational sys
tem and its environment
were such that young
men would tolerate this
type of horseplay. But
haven't you said, at some
rush, that college isnt
what it used to be? How
many rushees did you lie
to by talking brotherhood
and scholarship?
Most of us who are in
the Greek system are
proud of it and want to
see it continued for cur
sons and daughters. Near
ly 1,000 neophytes to the
Greek world win start
their Fraternal experience
Only the active mem
bers win hold the key to
their success or their
failure. Let's hope that
they get off to a good
start, and that all of the
talk last year didnt fall
on deaf ears and nimble
minds.
