Formal rush is over? open rush upcoming By Stephanie Gustafson Staff Reporter Pledging a sorority may have seemed a little less confusing and chaotic this year than in past years because pledges had the campus all to themselves for a few days. This is the first year that sorority rush, the membership selection pro cedure, has taken place the week before Freshman Friday, said Selina Shultz, overall rush chairwoman for sororities. “That way they have time to get things together, and they aren’t too tired to attend Freshman Friday ac tivities,’’ Shultz said. Rush for sororities began Friday and ended Tuesday. Women who wish to join a soror ity visit the chapter house several times during the first four days of rush so they can get to know more about the house and the house members can i-— get to know them, Shultz said. Pledge Day is the last day of rush, and the day when women pick up their invitations to membership. Those who aren’t selected are notified ahead of time, Shultz said. Open rush for women begins Sept. 11. Women or men that want to rush during the school year must go to the Greek Affairs Office, 332 Nebraska Union, to sign up. Sorority rush is much more formal than fraternity rush, Shultz said. Rush for fraternities takes place during the summer and all over the state. Men that wish to join a fraternity are vis ited by one of the fraternity members, she said. Shultz said usually 600 men and women pledge. The exact number of people who pledged this year will not be available until Monday, said Mary Ann Holland, secretary of the Inter fraternity Council.

It’s photo ID time From Staff Reports About 8,000 photo identifi cation cards have been issued to University of Nebraska-Lincoln students this fall as the univer sity begins the switch to a photo ID system. Doug Zatechka, director of housing and chairman of the ID card committee, urges students to obtain the new cards at any of several locations on campus. Students in fraternities and sororities, evening students, and law and dental students will be • extended invitations at specific times to have pictures taken. ocncuuics anu locauons iur pictures will be announced in the Daily Nebraskan and on campus bulletin boards. Most UNL departments will continue to accept the Certifi cate of Registration card issued by the Office of Registration. But photo IDs will be required for residence hall dining serv ices. Students who contracted for fall residence hall housing re ceived ID cards during the sum mer. Freshmen participating in New Student Enrollment, book store credit card customers and athletes also received cards this summer. The new cards eventually will replace five existing ID cards used on campus: the cer tificate of registration card, the library card, the residence hall dining card, the athletic card and the University Bookstore charge card. There is a $7.50 fee for a photo ID card assessed as a one time charge on second semester tuition statements. Once issued, the card will be good for as long as a student is enrolled.
