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

Dean of Men William G. Long
of the University of North Caro
lina has mixed feelings about
fraternities, doesn’t know whe
ther they will survive, and ac
acknowledges that the faculty is
becoming negatively disposed
towards them
And in a now well-known state
ment, University of California so
ciologist John F. S att predict
ed last fall that sororities face ex
tinction He contended that they
are too rigidly structured to cope
with today’s highly competitive
campus society
Chancellor Eliot, however, was
not at all dogmatic in a meet
ing with fraternity leaders at
Washington He said that the
administration remained open •
minded concerning Creeks, ac
knowledging. at the same time,
that members of the faculty were
more hostile
The chancellor expressed con
cern over the rivalry between
Greeks and independents on the
campus, terming it potentially un
healthy He said that the system
would have to harmonize its ac
tivities more with the rest of the
campus.
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.

really done all we could to make

community? Have we really en

or have we been busy justifying
ourselves by licking Easter Seals

there more to fraternities than
high pressure selling of an im

know wliat they want, or how
to get it"1 Isn’t there something
more to a fraternity than the

If tlicre is, then why don't we
spend more time looking for a
better approach and a defined

stink up the place?”
