Meet modern-day Greek rulers
Governing body
stresses units'
Every well run organ
ization must have a
governing body. ! he
United States has Bush and
Quayle, the Soviet l nion
has Mikhail Gorbachev. the
People's Court lias Judge
\\ apner, and l mversity's
greek system has the Panhel
lenii and Interfraternity
t OUtH lls.
Though different in
name, the only real differ
erae between the two gov
erning bodies here appears
to be sex.
Panhellemi is the govern
ing body ol the 11 sororities
on i ampus, ami as stated by
its literature, "serves as a
link between the administra
tion, the Intel fraternity
Council and other campus
groups for the sorority sys
tern.”
Said Deanna Jurgens, cur
rent Punhellenic president
"C'ur main goal is to provide
a cohesiveness and a sense of
harmony between Creeks
and the i ampus communi
ty.”
But is that not what the
Interfraternity Council also
hopes to provide?
As Tom Oberhue, cur
rent Interfraternity Council
president put it, "Again the
main difference between our
two organizations is that the
IC is the governing body for
l*holo hv Mark Vlrn
Interlratemity Council president 7om Oberhue and Panhel
lenic Council president Deanna Jurgens strive to keep har
mony among all organizations in the greek system.
the men, and Fanhellenic is
there for the women. Other
than that, we both have
generally the same duties."
There are some structural
differences between the two
bodies, but for the most part
each remains true to its
counterpart. Both have a
President's Council made up
of each chapter’s president,
which deals with the sliffer
cnt issues ;it hand, bach
president then takes the
sues or problems back to his
or her house tor review by
the members.
In addition to the Presi
dent's Council, the Panhel
lenic also has delegates from
each sorority that “take gen

Fund-raising in the greek style
brings results and entertainment
So you sav .til the greek svstem is good
for is intensive partying, nutso behav

the only respectable thing to come out of
University (rat life is the filming of \mm.il
tiouse on campus’ You see someone wearing
greek letters and immediately think he or she
is a selfish, snooty hr.it.’ You may want to
think again.
Fraternities and sorority members contrib
ute thousands of dollars each year to various
i haritable causes, and they don't .u hieve this
goal without a great deal of hard work, h uh
house has a specific philanthropy with w hich
they are affiliated nationally, and members
hold fund raising events annually to donate
money to their specific cause.
In addition, the greek system as a whole
conducts two weeklong events during the
sear to contribute to worthy causes. ( ireek
Days of ( iivmg, held on Feb. 12 In this year,
is designed to allow all fraternities and sorori
ties to combine fund raising efforts m a senes
of events and competitions. I he 1 niversitvs
(ireek Week, to be held May 14 JO, is more
of a public relations vehicle than a fund rais
ing event, although some money is raised tor
charity during the week.
This year the spotlighted cause for (ireek
Hays of (iivmg was the kathv (iuarcl I.euke
nua Foundation. Kathy Guard is a hugene
woman who has the cancer and has been
searching for a blood marrow donor, said ]oe
Lawson, Interfraternity Council public rela
turns chairman,
“They have to do hlood tests to match
marrow for leukemia patients, and each test
costs $75," Lawson said. “We raised $2,ISO
tor the cause m one week, and we also got _P
greek members who are willing to give
bio, id.''
Methods tor raising money tor charity are
generally geared toward participants having
tun while they .ire helping i iau>c. The lug
gest fund-raising event during ( ireek Days "I
( living was the l omedv Night, whuh raised
money hv charging admission at the door,
1 avvson said.
"Amateur comedians from e.u li fraternity
house performed a stand-up routine in front
of the entire greek system,” he said " 1 he
sole purpose of this type of thing is not only
to entertain hut to raise money "
lire individual houses’ philanthropu
events have also enjoyed success this year,
according to various participants. Sigma
Chi’s Derby Days competition, which is a
week long activity held in the fall, raised
52,000 for the Wallace St hool for ( hiklten
this year, said fraternity president Kith
1 hrift.
■sororities compete in events throughout
Derby Vi eek, ranging from a sandwich eating
contest to a scavenger hunt. I hrift said the
sororities also perform skits tor underprivi
leged children who meet at the fraternity
house one night during the week.
"As tar as our standing in fund raising na
ttonally, I'd sav we re average; but there are
houses that • an raise up to 515,00th'' he said
"rhis year our chapter was equally as sin.
cessful, it not more, than in years past,"
I hrift added.
Delta (iamma's Author Splash compett
tton, which was held April IS 20 this year,
contributes its proceeds ro the Aid to the
Blind Sight Conservation philanthropy, said
Jessica Bardell, one of the Anchor Splash to
ordmators.
Bardell said the 1 Diversity chapter raised
52, ISS this year, whuh is a record amount
tor the c hapter.
