(< nil limn'd from pane N)
Nam, brawn* we art* fighting to preserve freedom and to end all
wars.
What are you doing about it?
Also in the article I read, students were going to take up a
collection to send our enemies. Well, go and ask our parents
and the parents of our friends who have lost their lives trying
to end the war, to contribute Then wail until we Ret |I0rne if We
do, and ask us, if you can find the nerve
What you really need is a good spanking, and taken out from
behind “mother’s skirt," and have your eyes opened to what the
Communists are trying to do to the world, and then maybe you
will know “what we are doing in Viet Nam.”

Kmerald Kditor:
Once a year the Kmcrald
dec-ms a* it* duty to make a
frontal attack on the Greeks,
and this year is no exception.
I am not writing this letter in
vengeance, but more with the
hope of enlightening some mis
informed readers.
My first reference is to the
editorial of Oct 11, 19t*5 entitled
"Housing Causes Pledge Rise.”
The primary disappointment in
this article was the misusage of
a statement which I made to an
Kmerald reporter during an in
ten lew about three weeks ago
Ordinarily, I do not mind be
ing interviewed, quoted or even
referred to, and ! suppose !
even take the risk of being mis
interpreted. However, I was
more than misinterpreted; my
statement was taken complete
ly out of its original context and
was Used to Mr. Beggs' ndvan
(age in reaching the illogical
conclusion that the cause for
the pledge rise was due to the
housing shortage.
Granted, I acknowledge t h e
fact that the housing shortage
may have encouraged an upper
class girl to pledge a house dur
ing rush However, at the time
she signed up for rush (during
this summer) had she been con
corned about finding housing,
she could have applied for a
dorm reservation or found an
apartment at the same time.
Also, at this same time, the
overwhelming increase of the
University population was un
foreseen even by officials. So,
the question al>out housing was
not really evident when the up
Perclaas girl decided to sign up
for rush and is not a logical rea
son that upperclass girls decid
ed to apply for rush.
However, during rush, it was
mentioned that there was a
problem of housing and upper
class women were encouraged
to pledge a house at this time.
Hut, upperclass women compris
ed only 14 per cent of all the
rushees going through rush
this fall. In your reasoning you
forgot to take into account that
freshmen women are assured
of a dorm space their first year,
and therefore, did not feel any
pressure from the housing as
pect. So this could not have ef
fected their decision to pledge a
house. Admittedly, there was a
t'ise in the number of upper
class women who pledged, but
they comprised a very small
percentage of all who went
through rush.
Our statistics show that there
are two more basic and more sig
nificant reasons for the increase
of pledges this year which I em
phatically pointed out in my in
terview: < I) simply that there
was a greater number of wom
en going through rush and there
fore a greater number who
pledged; and (2) that there will
be no spring rush this academ
ic year and girls were very
strongly urged to pledge now.
Besides, Mr. Beggs, what in
dividual who abhors a group liv
ing situation, who isn't willing
to accept responsibility or to
living up to rertain standards,
is so bold as to sign up for rush
merely to have a roof over his
head?
Furthermore, in general ref
erence to the Emerald of Fri
day, Oct. 15, 1965. and more spe
cifically the editorial, permit me
to amend your erroneous criti
cism of the sorority judicial
system.
In the first place, the Panhcl
lenic Judiciary Board did its
authoritative duty last spring
when a house violated the Stu
dent Conduct Code and was
penalized accordingly. Admit
tedly, there was a “slip up” in
the routine handling of such
cases which resulted in the par
tial misunderstanding and par
t.o! oversight in reporting our
judiciary actions to the Conduct
Committee.
However, there was no inten
tional disobedience involved,
nor was there any attempt to
apply sanctions behind the back
Of the Conduct Committee.
When we were informed of the
oversight, the necessary steps
were taken to make right our
wrong The Judiciary Board
chairman, Judy Grankey, re
ported to the Conduct Commit
tee who approved the action
that had been taken last spring.
To judge the sorority judicial
system as uncooperative, and
unwilling to live up to the Code
on the basis of one circum
stance is quite an undeserved
criticism.
The matter remains that there
was enror; however, steps have
been taken to avoid mistakes
in the future, and we have every
intention of cooperating with
the Student Conduct Commit
tee.
