THE PHOENIX

Bicentennial Campus Sights and Sounds Prepared by the Operation Brass Tacks Committee of the National Panhellenic Editors Conference

CAMPUS SIGHTS AND SOUNDS are momentary things, fleeting, oon replaced by other things to see and to hear. These bicentennia! moments dateline the sights and sounds of other days ... 1890: Sorority women at Cornell held a Fancy Fair for the furnishing of a department at the city hospital for sick students. It is reported that all students, professors, and ladies of the university were interested and over $ 1,000 was raised. 1942: With the world at war the drive for scrap metals to be forged into arms has found college panhellenic support. Chapters everywhere are contributing cups and other metal awards to the scrap pile. 1918: The manpower shortage in farm labor is being met during this summer season with the recruitment of college girls. Enlistment is usually for three week periods with the option of unlimited re-enlistment until the harvest is completed in the fall. Sorority women at Syracuse who have been part of this program hope to climax their labor with an appearance in the State Fair parade. 1888: Though coeducation is growing in all areas, the men students at Adelbert College in Cleveland are violently opposed and have held demonstrations to exhibit their wrath at having young ladies in their classes. It is quite likely that the vote will be against women when the Board of Trustees reviews the case. 1925: There are 823,000 students enrolled in American colleges this fall, nearly double the 437,000 on campuses four years ago for the 1921-22 school year. 1882: Violent rivalry of all sorts is reported on college campuses-Greek groups robbing each other' mailboxes at Wisconsin (so most groups supply correspondents with "secret addresses"). At Northwestern there were interclass feuds. When the Freshmen were having their first social affair, the Sophomores "brought the gas factory to bear upon us and tried to choke us out, but we wouldn't choke worth a cent. And later that year, one evening when our unsuspecting foes were gaily playing post office with their fair damsels at the home of one of their number, we called, and left them minus hats, overcoats, and canes to go home unprotected from the weather."

SPRING 1976

1943: An hour a clay of physical fitness exercise is required of every student by the government. Many sorority houses have added this to the schedule after closing hour in the evening. Chapters on the two coasts have added air raid drills to their regular routines. Houses have been prepared for blackouts, and an air raid warden and assistant are among regular chapter officers. 1861: The members of the ladies societies at Wesleyan Female College in Macon, Georgia, have joined the Ladies' Relief Society, donated blankets and clothing to soldiers and appeared in a performance of "The Flower Queen" to raise money for the society's war relief. They also belong to volunteer military companies at Wesleyan and drill regularly. The first official Confederate flag was fashioned by an Aclelphean. 1893: The period July 17-22 was designated as Fraternity Week at the World's Fair in Chicago. Many of the men 's fraternities held conventions and reunions and didn ' t seem so interested in the discussion sessions as the women felt they might have been. Held at the Art Institute, the meetings Wednesday morning, July 19, were designated as College of College Fraternities while the afternoon was devoted to a Special Session of Fraternity Editors. The Congress of Women's Fraternities, its second such mee ting, was the event of Thursday, the twentieth, concluded with a reception and banquet at the New York Building at the Fair. 1890: Tennis is a chief amusement on college campuses this yea r. From the State University of Iowa comes the report that th e different literary societies, fraterniti es, etc., each have their own court. 1915: With so many young people living together in campus housing, contagious diseases pose a constant threat of epidemic. Last year it was scarlet fever, and already this year mumps has closed the University of Oregon . 1921: ' 'Vith women's suffrage established now, many campus groups-panhellenics especiallyare finding a fine fund raising device is the publishing and selling of a pamphlet entitled "How to Vote." 1918: The epidemic of Spanish influenza which has ravaged the United States and Canada this ( Continued on page 16)

The Love of a Sisterhood by Nan cy Barlow, Editor, B e ta EjJS ilon ClwjJi er

The love of a sisterhocd can extend across many miles. The members Jf Beta Epsilon Chapter have extended their lo e to a young girl in the Appalachian Mountains of Kentucky. Three years ago the ALA's "adopted" Ida Morrison of Menifee County. Ida was fifteen then and a sophomore in high school. The "adoption" was arranged through Children Incorporated, an international program designed to help underprivileged children. The Beta Epsilon members supported Ida in various ways. Funds were sent to her school to buy books and supplies. Many cards, letters, pictures, and gifts were sent directly to Ida. Members tried to share themselves with her and were delighted to hear of Ida's activities and interests. Letters from Ida were a treat for all. Sponsoring Ida was more than a philanthropic project for the chapter; it was a personal relationship. The relationship with Ida was one of understanding and friendship. Now Ida has graduated from high school and is no longer in need of sponsorship. However, she will always have a special place in the hearts of the Beta Epsilon girls.

Dedicated to Robert C. Berger Lee Francis, Kappa Kappa

On August 6, 1974, Robert C. Berger, 46, began his first test flight in his balloon "The Spirit of Man." He wanted to be the first man to cross the Atlantic in a balloon. He began at Lakehurst, l.J. Ten miles away the balloon exploded, throwing Berger's body into the water. He was killed. This poem is dedicated to him and to his daughter, Meri Berger, who is my big sister in Alpha Sigma Alpha sorority. He dreamed of touching heaven; In the quest he built a balloon With faith in the heaven he wished to reach. He began his first flight; His eyes were raised to the sky As he waved good-bye to the family he left behind. Ten miles later He descended into the cold, impersonal water Of the Atlantic Ocean. Behind him, his wife and four children. Through their tears, their grief They realize he has surpassed his dreams. He dreamed of touching heaven But, now he has attained it.

We build our parties, sing our songs, and grow together as a chapter, but we are still missing a part of ourselves. v\Te can' t find our "past."-a part that can stretch back to the beginning of our chapter as a part of Alpha Sigma Alpha. At Gamma Mu we use the theme, " Time Is Our Friend," for our formal rush party to emphasize how much our alumnae mean to u s. We have found that Alpha

Sigma Alpha sisterhood does not end with the receiving of a college diploma. But even with this, we still have missing faces. Every chapter has a "fami ly tree" in one form or another. Please help us to keep these ties in tact. National has established many Alumnae Chapters so that you may find still an. "active" role in ALA, but it is your college sisterhood that needs you, too. Please help us to bridge this gap of time. Send us a postcard, a letter, even a cooking recipe-something that will let us know just who were the sisters of yesterday. I promise you that your letters wi ll be answered. We care about you-and we've missed you . Please write and take care. In AI pha Sig love, Your college sisters of Gamma Mu Chapter

Traditions are one means of binding various generations of people. The celebration of Thanksgiving, for exampl e, binds United States citize ns of today to the Pl ym outh R ock pilgrims of th e 1600s. Alpha Sigma Alpha collegiate chapters also cherish traditions which bind th em to alumn ae and oth er Alpha chapters. Candlelights, the Pearl C eremony, the pledging and initiation ce remoni es are all traditions for each Alpha. Each chapter has also d eveloped local traditions throughout the years which are passed on to generation after generation of Alpha collegians. At Christmas time, for example, ALPHA seniors pla n a surprise party for the chapter members, complete with a decorated tree, re freshments, and Christmas carols. Each year, th e president's graduating cap is passed on to the succeeding president. J oint pledge-member meetings held once a quarter introdu ce new ALPHA ALPHA members to chapter customs including the friendship circle. At the scholarship recognition ce remony held eve ry quarter, a bracelet is given to th e the pledge with the highest grades. A silver charm, engraved with the wearer's name is add ed when the bracelet is passed on . Pledging ends with th e activities of Starlight Week, including ma king a sisterhood collage, collec ting members' signatures, and serving big sisters breakfast in bed. M embers and pledges gath er in the suite for an overnight, and in the morning, big and little sisters exchange handmade paddles. At the sharin g ceremony, each girl signs a slip of paper which becom es a link in a red and white chain connec ting th e names of th e entire chapter. One of ALPHA BETA's favorite traditions is the costume pa rty planned by th e pledges for members complete with escorts, favors and skits. At the beginning of th e yea r, the scholarship chairm an pairs off members and pled ges. The person with the lower grad e point average of the pair buys dinner for the oth er a t the Study Buddy Dinner . Immedia tely after th e pledging ceremony, ALPHA GAMMA pledges are t reated to dinner. Soon after this member hold a big-little sister pa rty and give the pledges gifts, usuall y some type of " turtle." (The turtle, Raggedy Ann, a nd And y a re their mascots.) The pledges recip rocate with a pa rty for m embers, and at the end of th e year, a Senior Farewell Dinner is held . For BETA BETA's, holiday dinners are traditional. At Christmas, Santa and Mrs. Cla us arrive a t the house to read a humorous list of what th e me mbers wanted. They distribu te gifts, and the pledges perform skits. Winter b rings th e Sad ie H awkins Ba rn D a nce, a nd M ountain Par ty is a time for a ret rea t in to th e R ocky M oun ta ins near Estes Pa rk for self-awareness and grou p invo lvement. D inner, kits, skiing, tubing a nd skat ing end with a Sunday morni ng service in the beautiful mountai n meadows. Members read the wri tten feelings or reac tio ns of oth er members an d meditate alone in the meadow un til they leave. T he yearly highlight is the a nnua l Din ner D ance.

Some of the Zeta Zeta's fav orite traditions include a pledge exchange with a fraternity, a Founders' Day dinner with Lambda Ch i Alpha, a Christmas party with Tau Kappa Epsilon for underprivileged children, a Halloween party for retarded chi ldren , Secret Santas and a Sweetheart F ormal. Each year a Senior Sweetheart is chosen, and every m onth a deserving Alpha is given the Turkeyo f-the-M onth Award. ETA ETAS host a surprise pizza party for its pledge . Pledges reciprocate with a surprise breakfast for m embers. Each year during the basketball season, Eta Eta sponsors a Mr. Basketball Award . At the last h ome game, Eta Etas pass out ballots f r the spec tators to vote for an outstanding basketba ll player. At half-time, the winner is presented a trophy by th e Alph a president. During the Eta Eta senior brea kfast, the chapter secretary prese nts highli ghts fr om the seniors' college experiences and a mug with th e sorority cres t is given to each se nior. The se ni ors then read their wills. At the scholarship banquet, any member with a grade point below the chapter average eats hamburge r, the oth ers have steak. Chapter awards, such as Man-of-th e-Year, are presented at Spring F ormal. " Cheers" is a news sheet that reveals the funny and real accomplishm ents of KAPPA KAPPA members. The traditi on began with th e writer remaining a secre t until Senior Dinner. N ow the editor writes it; and it is the informers wh o are reveal ed at the dinner. Summer picni cs, pledge fun nights, and singing to brides on th eir wedding days are PHI PHI traditi ons . The member whose name is last on th e chapter role adj ourns Phi Phi m eetings. When a pledge class is initiated, th e names are added to the role and a new member takes th e job. After a candlelight, the lucky member is throw n into a tub of ice cold water. A water fight begins at the point, and ends when eve ryone is soaked. BET A GAMMAS honor th e moth ers of the se ni ors at a M other Patroness T ea. With the ce remony, each mother is given a daisy and a pin . Awards for Alpha Man, M ember-of-th e-Year, and Sorority Sweetheart are presented at their traditi onal Spring Banquet.

Transportation

The historic triangle of Williamsburg, Jamestown, and Yorktown is easily accessible. If you plan to fly, make your reservations to the Patrick Henry International Airport, Newport News, Virginia, not to Richmond. Alumnae from the area will meet most planes at the Patrick Henry Airport, which is much closer than Richmond.

Convention Cost

Registration- $35.00; covers favors, programs, and special events. Non-member guests do not pay the Registration Fee, but they must purchase separate meal tickets.

Clothes to Bring

Summer dresses or slacks will be appropriate for daytime wear with a sweater in case it's cool. Sports attire for swimming, tennis, or golf if you plan to take advantage of those facilities. An all white dress and white shoes are a must for the White Luncheon. A long dress to look your prettiest for the Awards Banquet. If you have a chapter outfit, that would add to the Rush Luncheon fun.

newly initiated members, an Autumn Bash , and Spring Fling which is a float-canoe trip down a river. BETA MUS found "dorm storming" an effective rush tradition. Small groups of members try to meet and visit every girl in every dorm several times during the semester. Beta Mu pledges carry Raggedy Ann dolls and are treated to an early morning "kidnap" breakfast. Each year, the chapter holds a Parent-Daughter Banquet and a party for alumnae. This year's party was held at Halloween and a prize was awarded for the best costume. BET A NUS host a Homecoming brunch for alumnae and parents. At Senior Farewell, they sing songs and present each senior with a gift. Once each semester, the Beta Nus hold a retreat. The pledges present their pledge song and a chapter gift, while the members present the pledges with a special gift. Building a Homecoming float with a fraternity begins BETA RHO's traditional activities. Members and dates attend an informal fall party while traditional pledge programs include Turnabout Day, a pledge banquet and Take-Overs. The pledges "take over" the house two nights out of every semester in order to plan activities, to learn the physical make up of the house, and to get to know each other better. Other important traditions include the Christmas party, Senior Farewell, and Spring Formal. A fall hayride, Christmas dance and Sweetheart Formal are traditional activities for BETA SIGMAS. They have an annual Las Vegas rush party and a slave sale, and elect a Pledge-of-the-Month, a Member-of-the-Month, Outstanding Pledge and Sweetheart. BET A UPSILONS end meetings with a friendship circle. Each of their pledges receive a mushroom shaped wooden paddle that is signed by members after becoming acquainted with the pledge. New members receive a felt mushroom and elf door knocker after initiation. Christmas and Spring Formals, Christmas and Halloween parties, working with Special Olympics, and participating in Pioneer Days, Sadie Hawkins Day and Homecoming activities are favorite GAMMA ZETA traditions. Three traditions which have developed in GAMMA IOTA Chapter include sponsoring an underprivileged child, giving a serenade in the lobby of the campus dining hall to mark the beginning of Winter Weekend, and a Parents' Weekend with formal and semi-formal functions and a brunch on Sunday morning. GAMMA LAMBDAS have a "filos" tradition. (Filos is Greek for friend.) During pledging, members volunteer to be secret pals, writing encouraging letters and buying small presents for each pledge. On the last night of pledging, the filos reveals her identity. Each pledge also carries a painted rock with her family tree, reminding her of the security she will find in Alpha Sigma Alpha. At GAMMA MU, pledge moms make their daughters wooden pledge books with the pages devoted to the breakdown of pledge duties. The pledge mom also makes a Raggedy Ann doll, Gamma Mu mascot, for her daughter prior to initiation. No two dolls are alike, each representing the individuality of every Gamma Mu member. Wooden paddles made by pledge moms are presented to pledges on any special occasion. The pledges in turn make something special for their moms. Gamma Mu seniors perform the annual Senior Skit at the formal rush party and Senior Farewell. They receive Phoenix pins from their daughters at Senior Farewell also. Gamma Mus choose a Sister-of-the-Month and at certain times, put "I Care" notes on a particular member's door. This comes in the form of the "Secret Turkey" or the "Secret Reindeer." GAMMA XI's traditions include maintaining a chapter room and hosting a fall formal. After a candlelight at GAMMA PI, the lucky member is thrown into the shower. GAMMA RHOS traditionally build a float and host an

Retarded children enj oy Halloween and Christmas parties and an Easter Egg Hunt sponsored by Gamma Rho while members enjoy a Christmas party and Christmas formal. Awards, including one to the member who has found herself in the funniest situations during the semester, are presented at the formal. Graduating seniors are also given a party. At Christmas, GAMMA PSI Chapter contributes to the American Cancer Society and at Thanksgiving, organizes a food drive. They hold a Homecoming alumnae tea, a Christmas grab bag gift exchange, big-little sis dinners and sleepovers. Each week, a spirit award is given to the GAMMA OMEGA member wh o most promoted chapter spirit. The recipient wears the spirit necklace for a week and chooses the next recipient. DELTA EPSILON's traditions include a pledge dance, while DELTA ETAS hold a KROP party for their pledges . The pledges have no idea what this function is until they walk through the door and see the sign Keep Right On Ple<;lging. Alpha Angels send pledges notes, letters and little surprises. Identities are revealed during a ceremony at th e pledge banquet. DELTA KAPPAS have a Founders' Day Dinner for members and their families, co-sponso r a Halloween Candy Drive with a local radio station and distribute candy to children who are unable to " trick or treat." They help at the University Madrigal Dinner, host a Christmas Dinner with alumnae, go Christmas carolling and hold an Awards Banquet. Two of DELTA LAMBDA's traditions include voting on thet Sister-of-the-Quarter and Chapter Sweetheart. DELTA NU-SECTION A holds candy sales while DELTA XI participates in winning spirit points at sporting events, and do philanthropic projects during the holidays. In the words of Ann Davis, GAMMA MU Chapter Editor, however, "the greatest tradition lies in the idea that no matter what happens, a sister knows her sisters are behind her. When we are upset or uncertain about things, we can always expect to find a sign of love and encouragement." Many chapters traditionally celebrate the anniversary of their chapter installation. ALPHAS hold a special cere-

mony while ALPHA BET AS host a tea. Dinner with a fraternity marks ZETA ZETA's anniversary and ETA ETAS hold a ceremony which highlights the aims and purposes of Alpha Sigma Alpha.

fall has caused severe curtailment of academic curriculum on most campuses, strict quarantines of dormitories and fraternity houses. At Albion College the sorority lodges were offered for use as temporary hospitals, and, after inspection, one was chosen for this purpose. 1932: As long as the depression continues women are advised that "the traditional fields of women's work have survived the economic crisis. For stability of occupation a woman should engage in education, library work, philanthropy, government service-in other words, state-supported or endowed organizations-or else in food and housing. Luxury trades and business corporatjons are far more apt to reduce their personnel in hard times." 1911: In Th e Sorority Handbook, Ida Shaw Martin makes a comment worth repeating in 1976: "The yea r 1776, remarkable in the annals of history as witnessing the beginning of a mighty nat ion through the union of thirteen colonies, -a union that was to stand preeminently for the brotherhood of man, saw also the foundations laid for another union, another brotherhood, that like its prototype, was destined to grow into a mighty power. On the fifth of December, the Phi Beta Kappa Society was founded at Williamsburg, Virginia ... the first of the secret Greekletter societies and therefore the parent of the modern fraternity system, which h as become so large a factor m the college life of the United States."

AILPHA SIGMA ALIPIHAApril 1976

Dear Alpha Sigma Alpha Sisters: I'm sure by now you have heard the exotmg news that OUR National Convention will be in Williamsburg, Virginia next June. The Nation celebrates its Bicentennial while Alpha Sigma Alpha celebrates its Diamond Jubilee! Also, the Fraternity System is celebrating its Bicentennial. Two hundred years ago Williamsburg, Virginia, was a place of elegant manners, graceful buildings richly furnished, and gardens green and fair on the edge of the wilderness. It was the capital city of a colony whose borders reached beyond the Great Lakes to the Mississippi River and encompassed the territory of eight of our present states. Life was pleasant in Williamsburg with excellent music, the finest of foods and wine, and the delights of the ballroom and theatre. Here too, the seeds of revolution and freedom were planted by a group of dedicated gentlemen dressed in wigs and ruffles. Today those same buildings and gardens have been restored to their former beauty. The tempo of that other day lives again-in the taverns, on the streets, in the mile-long colonial city faithfully, meticulously restored by the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation. After visiting the historical buildings such as our first Capital, Governor's House and the Pound, you will be delighted with the many taverns and shops where hours can be spent just browsing. Five miles from Williamsburg you will see, at Jamestown, the three ships that brought the settlers to Virginia, an Indian vi ll age, a museum, and a colonial glass blowing factory. Also, if you have time, you should visit Yorktown (17 miles) and the sight of Cornwallis' surrender. Almost 50 years of effort have gone into this monumental undertaking "that the future may learn from the past." Seventy-five years have gone into our sorority and we need you to help us celebrate our anniversary at Longwood College in Farmville, Virginia, and to help us decide the direction of Alpha Sigma Alpha for the next biennium. "Come Home to Virginia" where many Alpha Sigma Alpha sisters await you. Alpha love, Nita Chandler, Chairman 1976 Convention
