Changes Eyed Among Nation s Greeks ST. LOUIS (CPS)—While fra ternity discrimination continues to occupy most of the headlines, more basic questions concerning the purposes and future of the Greek system are being raised on different campuses across the country. A plan to change rushing pro cedures at Washington University here has refocused attention to this point. The administration has told fraternities they will no longer be able to conduct rush at the beginning of each semester because of a new freshman ori entation program. Although seemingly a minor problem—rush is conducted at many different times of the year on different campuses—the ac tion has contributed to “a great deal of fear and anxiety among fraternities about their future here,” according to one observer. Many Greeks feel this is part of a general plan to eliminate them One administration map for the campus in 1980 apparently shows classroom buildings where the fraternity houses are now. Washington University's chan cellor. Thomas Eliot, is seeking to raise academic standards (a large fund drive is imminent); he al legedly believes the campus aca demic climate can be improved by strengthening the dormitory system at the expense of fra ternities. An anti-intellectual character is being charged to fraternities in other places. A faculty commit tee at Amherst College came out with a report last fall which said in part: “Few of the fraternities have any consistent, frequent institu tional forms beyond the ■faculty cocktail party’ for bringing to gether work and social life. Even fewer still have significant pro grams of independent activities for exercising the creative, liter ary, artistic, or intellectual abili ties of their members. At least one fraternity is seen by some of its members as a happy refuge from the intellec tual and moral expectations of the College and general society. Too often the exercise of re sponsibility is confined to house Oregon Daily Emerald TW Oregon Daily Emerald is pohlisitec five times ta September and five da>» a week dannf the academic year, except during examination periods, by the Student Publi cations Beard of the University of Oregon, Second-class postage paid at Eugene, Ore gon 97443.

At least one fraternity man agreed. Writing in the student | newspaper, Dennis Brophy indi rated he thought the system was being presented with an oppor j tunity for self analysts. -j-'or years lnutvidual adtninis-1 trators and faculty members have j done little to make us feel want ed," he wrote “But have we really done all we could to make ! ourselves a part of the larger, community?
