An Abstract of Development and Consolidation of the University of Toledo Greek Life Governing Councils: 1915-2006 by Alexandra Marie White Submitted to the Graduate Faculty as partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Master of Education Degree in Higher Education The University of Toledo May 2015 Since the 18th century fraternities and sororities have been an integral part of extracurricular life on college campuses. Even though there are many different fraternities and sororities, each aims to provide friendship, leadership, and professional development to its members (King, 2004).The rich history of Greek organizations has played an important role in the development of student life at The University of Toledo, where fraternities have been present since October of 1915, when the Cresset society was formed (History of the Cresset Fraternity, n.d.). However, throughout the years the University of Toledo Greek community has adapted and consolidated in order to ensure survival while remaining a vital component on campus.

  • FRATERNITY ROW, the STUDENT GHETTO, and the FACULTY ENCLAVE Characteristic Residential Districts in the American College Town
    10.1177/0096144205281664 JOURNAL OF URBAN HISTORY / January 2006 ARTICLE Gumprecht / RESIDENTIAL DISTRICTS IN COLLEGE TOWNS FRATERNITY ROW, THE STUDENT GHETTO, AND THE FACULTY ENCLAVE Characteristic Residential Districts in the American College Town BLAKE GUMPRECHT University of New Hampshire The unusual demographic characteristics of college towns, and the social differences that exist within stu- dent populations, have led to the emergence in college communities of several distinctive types of residential districts. Using Ithaca, New York,as an example, this study examines the origins and evolution of three such districts—the Greek-housing district sometimes called “fraternity row,” the student rental area often known as the student ghetto, and the faculty enclave. Together such districts help to make the American college town a unique type of urban place. Keywords: college towns; neighborhoods; housing; residential segregation The hundreds of college towns in the United States are, in essence, an aca- demic archipelago.1 Similar to one another, they often differ in several impor- tant ways from other cities and the regions in which they are located. The most fundamental difference is demographic and is a reflection of the fact that many college towns are single-industry communities whose main business is educa- tion. The annual migration of new students to campuses means college town populations are forever young. The need for faculty and administrators, and the presence of graduate students, mean that college town populations are more highly educated than the general populace.2 The lopsided demographics of college communities help explain their dis- tinctive personalities. College town commercial areas reflect the ever-chang- ing tastes of youth and the nonmainstream orientation of many professors.

The education of your future officers, committee chairmen, committee members and general members will define your chapter over the next three to four years. You, the chosen New Member Educator, have a duty to your chapter and the Order to ensure the thorough and proper education of the men your chapter has invited to join. It is your responsibility to follow the rules and guidelines defined by the Kappa Alpha Laws, chapter bylaws and of your host university or college. This guide should aid you in your education of these new members and should provide you a roadmap for planning the education period. It was the duty of every member of your chapter to investigate potential new members before extending them a bid of membership. As an Order, we look for individuals who previously possess the same qualities and ideals as ourselves. It is through recruitment that you examine a man’s qualities to make a determination on whether he can become a valuable member to your chapter and to Kappa Alpha Order.

    Donald “Don” Haslup Adams 954-816-0168 [email protected] Memories I cherish from Ohio Wesleyan Best opportunity for a fine education in a friendly social setting with many chances to experiment in extra-curricular activities (theater, WSLN, Boy Scout troop 93 thanks to Abbie Seamans' Sociology Course), etc. How Ohio Wesleyan influenced my life I appreciate the value of a liberal arts education that affects so much more than just a way to make a living. Became aware of Student Affairs as a career field. Professor I will always remember and why Harry Bahrick, for teaching a good work ethic and excellent teaching skills and a long- term friendship. Oh yes, and an amazing memory! Professor Robert Marshall, who upon realizing that my non-appearance at the Poetry class Final Exam was out of character for me, phoned his friend, the house mother at the Beta House to see if I was all right. One of the brothers woke me up and in record time I was in the classroom and allowed to finish the exam. He was a scholar, a caring man and a class act. Where I have traveled and places I would like to see Because of my second career as a Tour Operator and Director, I was able to travel to approximately 90 countries, visit all the states and provinces and to spend time living in Australia, South America and several European countries. Still on the list are China, Bangkok, Iceland and a return to Vietnam under somewhat different conditions. I've been fortunate enough to have had homes in over ten states and six foreign countries.
