Exch 8/50 Cover ~clure BEAUMONT TOWER AT MICHIGAN STATE COLLEGE Michigan State College was a relatively small university before World War II, but it stands today as the eleventh largest institution of higher education in the nation. Not only does it have the student body, but it has the educational philosophy, breadth of curriculum, faculty and physical facilities to match. Pictured on the cover is Beaumont Tower, a sentimental landmark of the campus, which was erected in 1928 on the site of College Hall, where scientific agriculture was taught for the first time in the U.S. Enrollment of students reached a post-war peak of 16,243 during the fall quarter of 1949. In the fall term of 1951, enrollment stood at approximately 13,593 (9,357 men and 4,236 women). Total faculty, including teaching, research and extension, numbers over 2,000. In the field of inter-collegiate z.thletics, all-around performance of Spartan teams ranks with the best in the nation. The Western Conference voiced its approval of MSC's athletic prowess when it voted in May, 1949, to accept Michi­ gan State a member of the Big Ten. The institution has come a long way since 1855, when it was founded as Michigan Agricultural College, first of its type in the nation. Carved out of the pines in Michi­ gan's Lower Peninsula on the outskirts of Lansing, this institution has a tradition in agricultural teaching and extension work that can boast no equal, for it blazed the trail for the land-grant movement which was to follow in the 1860's.

    OF KAPPA KAPPA GAMMA WINTER 1967 N O W LET9S TAKE STOCK COLLEGIATir'S QUALITY INTERESTS CO. Sto~k Portfolio Revien' An advisory bulletin Dear K. K. G.: You write that you are considering the following holdings: General Chaos Panic Craft Kappa Industries La Trivia Broadcasting Bell Voca-line Tempus Fugit Associates Guff Oils Notone Controls Hi-Pressures Mfg. My findin gs indicate that this stock list is too highly speculative and is not balanced with any Blue Chips with the exception of Kappa Industries. I would recommend, instead, that you build your portfolio around stocks better able to withstand the pressures of today's market. Although many of the above (especially General Chaos, Bell Voca-line, GufJ Oils, and Notone Controls) have been going up, their earnings are down, and they are due for a bad dedine at the end of the current quarter. My recommendations are: Hold Kappa Industries, but balance your holdings with: Think, Inc. Oriented Concentrates Multi Resources Lerner Research Applied Data Processing Consolidated Action Audio-Tone Control Time-trol Super-cope Corp. Value Consumers It is important to point out that your continued holding of your very important Blue Chip stock in Kappa Industries will be nicely balanced by the acquisition of Consolidated A ction. I would advise, however, di scriminate purchase of the latter, for you will want to have enough resources left to make the other investments mentioned. If, as it is rumored, Think, In c. and Applied Data Processing merge, these investments are due for tremendous growth, and commensurate appreciation in value.

    A HISTORY OF THE FRATERNITY SYSTEM AT SOUTHERN ILLINOIS UNIVERSITY FROM 1948 THROUGH 1960 by Frances DeSimone Becque B. S., Syracuse University A Master’s Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Master of Science in Education Degree Graduate Program in Higher Education in the Graduate School Southern Illinois University at Carbondale April, 1995 A HISTORY OF THE FRATERNITY SYSTEM AT SOUTHERN ILLINOIS UNIVERSITY FROM 1948 THROUGH 1960 Frances DeSimone Becque ABSTRACT The purpose of this study was to chronicle the history of the social fraternity system at Southern Illinois University at Carbondale during the years 1948-1960. It includes a brief synopsis of events prior to 1948, the year Delyte W. Morris became President of the University. The study concludes with the year the first four Small Group Housing buildings were completed. The growth of the fraternity system is detailed including the Administration’s stance on home rule and non-discrimination, the consequences of which hindered several national men’s fraternities, including Sigma Pi and Sigma Phi Epsilon, in establishing chapters at SIU. The quest for University-owned fraternity housing is chronicled. Also discussed are the mergers affecting the women’s fraternities, including the merger of the Association of Education Sororities and the National Panhellenic Conference and the merger of Delta Sigma Epsilon and Delta Zeta on the national level as well as the national merger of Pi Kappa Sigma and Sigma Kappa. In addition, a brief history is given of all the men’s and women’s fraternities at SIU from 1923 until 1960. The Interfraternity Council and Panhellenic Council are discussed as are the Greek Week activities.

  • 2016 Recruitment Rules - 1
    MIT Interfraternity Council 2016 Recruitment Rules - 1 Massachusetts Institute of Technology Interfraternity Council 2016 Recruitment Rules Preamble Spirit of Recruitment Formal Recruitment Rules are created and enforced with the intent of fostering a safe, efficient, and fair Recruitment for the benefit of the Interfraternity Council (IFC) and the entire fraternity community. They serve to protect the recruitees, individual chapters, and the overall interests of the IFC, especially with regards to maintaining a positive relationship with MIT. Any action committed by a fraternity or member of the IFC to the detriment of another fraternity, fraternity member, recruitee, or the MIT community is a violation of the Spirit of Recruitment, and the Spirit, rather than the literal interpretation of the rules, shall be enforced. Any information regarding alleged Recruitment violations must be given to the Recruitment Chairman or any Judicial Committee inspector upon request and failure to do so is itself a violation. All questions regarding the interpretation of the rules will be immediately referred to the Judicial Committee for proceedings, and all violators are subject to any and all fines, sanctions, and punishments that the Judicial Committee Chairman deems appropriate. Definitions • Associated: Any person that has connections with the fraternity in question. This includes, but is not limited to, fraternity members and alumni. • Day: As used in the Rules, it will be the defined as the period from 9:30 am to 3:00 am. • Event: An event will be defined as any time an organization or fraternity member pays for a freshman, takes a freshman off campus, or hosts an occurrence for which it has openly advertised.

  • THE KEY VOL 77 NO 4 WINTER 1960.Pdf
    First things first Speaking on the subject, "Collegiate Trends and Creek Opportunities," at the 1959 National Inter­ fraternity Conference, President Wells of Indiana called attention to "the rising emphasis on the intellec­ tual substance of the undergraduate collegiate experience" and challenged fraternities to "insist on a new intellectual dimension in fraternity life." He reminded fraternities that "the first purpose of our actives in college is to gain there an intellectual experience to prepare themselves for an age in which the only remaining frontier is the limitless frontier of the mind" and advised a return to the objectives of the early Creek Letter societies. With President Wells' counsel Kappa Kappa Gamma is in accord. We accept the challenge for a "new intellectual dimension in fraternity life" as long overdue. We have long since learned however that "to believe is not enough." Hence, we must intensify our efforts to encourage and foster individual intellec­ tual attainment and may well begin by clarifying our objectives and re-thinking our policies, procedures and programs. Again, heeding President Wells' admonition of a return to early objectives for clues to meeting current needs, a review of Kappa history has learnings for us. Although the campus of 1870 would seem to have little in common with that of 1960, a study of our records reveals many similarities. The period following the Civil War was also one of unprecedented growth and change in higher education. It had special significance for women, as broadening educational horizons do today. It was then that college doors were opening for women, albeit reluctantly, and "over faculty protests against the intrusion." Our founding mothers were under compulsion to prove that "they were intellectually able and physically fit for the rigors of advanced intellectual training." They dared not fail lest the doors close for who-knows­ how-long.
