35 Greek Houses Are Active at Oregon There are presently 35 active chapters of social fra ternities and sororities at the University. All are aflili ated with national organizations. In addition, there are three local colonies on campus associated with national fraternities. About one student out of every seven lived in a Greek house during fall term last year. Some 842 men lived in the 19 fraternity houses, while the 16 sorori ties housed 722 Use Different Systems During the fall 1964 formal rush period, fraternities pledged 206 persons, while sororities pledged 279 The figures are difficult to compare on a long term scale, however, since the men's and women's groups use different systems for rushing The sororities have previously held formal rush periods twice during each academic year, pledging only at these times, in fall and spring terms. This year there will be no spring rush. Two Rush Periods Fraternities held two formal rushes last year, during fall and winter. But men may be pledged at other times during the year in “informal rush." Thus, fall rush usually results in lower pledge totals for fraterni ties than for sororities For the past two years, fraternities have held fall rush prior to registration week. This method proved somewhat unsuccessful to members, so the rush was changed to Sept. 30-Oct. 3 this year. Sororities held rush before registration this full from Sept. 16 20. Sorority rushees are required to pay an $8 fee to participate in formal rush. Fraternity rushees must pay $5. IFC Rules Frats The fraternity system at the University is presided over by the Inter-Fraternity Council, a body composed of the chapter president plus one representative from each active fraternity The group formulates rules to govern the operation of the fraternities, and no group may be affiliated with the University that is not a member of the IFC. The Tribunal is the judicial body of the IFC It is an eight-member board which tries the cases involving violations of IFC regulations by individual houses, and imposes sanctions. Fall Under Code The sororities are governed by Panhellenic, the women's equivalent of IFC. Panhellenic also has under it a separate body, the President’s Council, made up of the presidents of each active sorority chapter. Judiciary body for Panbeilenic is the Judiciary Hoard, a six-member group which mediates disputes and delivers sanctions for violations of the Sorority Women’s Agreement, the Panhellenlc regulations gov erning all chapters. The Greek chapters ure also subject to jurisdiction under the Student Conduct Code of the University. Fraternities having chapters at the University are Alpha Tau Omega, Beta Theta Pi.
