University of Louisville Integration Basis For Housing Funds LOUISVILLE, Ky. (CPS)—The University of Louisville laid an ultimatum before the school’s all-white fraternities and sororities last week (September 23): stop discriminating against Negroes or face expulsion from campus. University President Philip Davidson announced the regulation in response to the Greeks’ requests for housing construction funds. He agreed to loan 75 per cent of building costs and to provide land only to non discriminatory fraternities and sororities. "Fraternities and sororities need help to survive on this campus,” President Lawrence said. Dean of students David Lawrence said he foresaw no problems in fraternity compliance with the ruling. But three days after the announcement, fraternity and sorority leaders had no comment. In another case, the University of Colorado prohibited discrimi nation in fraternities and subsequently suspended privileges of Sigma Chi. When the national chapter filed suit, a U.S. district court upheld the University's action. University President Arthur S. Flemming, in co operation with OSU President James Jensen, has been investigating Sigma Chi's membership practices on campus. Administrators at the Universities of California, Wisconsin and Minnesota have also warned fraternities against discrimination.
