Sororities Study End to Fall Rush
Fall rush is being carefully evaluated by the Panhellenic Rush and Presidents' Councils during this lull after pledging 293 girls this spring for possible revision.
Panhellenic president Jill Newberg, Carmel, Ind., senior, said, "Fall rush was originally intended to relieve the pressure of the increasingly large number of girls going through spring rush."
The KU Fall rush system for the last two years has allowed participation of unmarried and unaffiliated students who have graduated from high school at least one year prior to the deadline for Fall rush registration. They must have completed at least one semester of college work.
FALL RUSH IS intended to allow the sororites to fill any summer vacancies immediately.
Not everything points to the Fall rush system, however. The work and expense that goes into Fall rush is much greater per pledge than that required for Spring rush.
Fall rush also necessitates that the houses bring their members back almost a week early.
MISS NEWBERG ALSO said,
"Having both fall rush and early
open houses drags out rush for
the entire semester."
These factors are being considered, at present, by the Panhellenic councils. They will make some recommendation to the new councils that take over at the Mar. 8 Panhellenic turnover.
The final decision whether or not to have fall rush will be left
up to the new President's and Rush Councils.
ASSISTANT DEAN of Women Kala Stroup said, "The present council can only recommend. The new council will be the ones to work under, and, therefore, decide upon, the rush system to be used."
