University Women Discuss Problems in Mass Meeting
Introduction of Organized Group System Proposed;
Dean Husband
Gives Talk
A The suggestion and contemplation, of introducing the organized group system at the University of Kansas, he was one of the most important topics discussed at the Junior-Senior conference and where women held both in Green hall last night.
Tressie May, c'25, gave a report on the system as it has been worked out if out at the University of Illinois. She stets how the town is divided geographically into six districts. These of districts are, in turn, divided into organized groups consisting of 30 or more girls.
Plan Successful at Illinois
"The plan has been so successful at Illinois that we believe it could be used to advantage on our own campus," said Miss May. "Here some souces have so few girls living in them that when they organize with it, they can work with success. This new system would do much to eliminate such a condition."
Plan Successful at illinois
Miss May said that of the 1275 girls in school, 795 were unorganized, 228 belong to sororites, 40 live in co-operative houses, and 125 live at the dormitory. All the others may, in no way, be said to be organized.
"The quoting of these figures shows the need for some organization." Miss May continued, "Of course, there will be a need to come out of the idea, and at first it might not appear to be very successful. If all the girls, however, both sorority and non-sorority, will show their enrolment to the success of the plan is assured."
Reporter from the M.J. West Conference of the W. S. G. A. Association were also given at the conference.
