COLONIZER- Joe McLean, Gamma Nu, has been employed by the Fraternity as a colonizer for this fall. The main thrust of his efforts will be in the midwest where the Fraternity has expansion commitments at several schools. Joe, last year, led the successful colonization at Oklahoma as a graduate student. UNIVERSITY IS FOR LEARNING -McGeorge Bundy, the president of the Ford Foundation and a former professor and dean at Harvard, has urged American universities to keep themselves free of violen~e and political partisanship and to combine devotion to learning with wider concern for the entire academiC community. Recalling his years at Harvard, Bundy says: "We were right about one absolutely vital point: we kneW what the university was for - learning. The university is for learning -- not for politics, not for growing up, not even for virtue, except as these things cut in and out of learning and except also as they are necessarY elements of all good human activity".

NEW AREA COUNCELLOR- Steve Browning, Tau, of Charlotte, N.C. has been appointed as an Area Counsellor for Area XIII. He will counsel chapters in middle North Carolina.

NEW CONCEPT IN FRATERNITY HOUSING- Apartment-type fraternity buildings which combine one or two bedroom apartments with a general living room, recreation room, study room, kitchen and dining S~~a~·~~~ hall are proving successful. Gamma Epsilon at Western Carolina State already has an apartment complex . ~ -~~ii:::. .. ~ on 17 acres of land, and plans are under way for apartment-type facilities at Lambda, University of Geor@8 ~~~~~~g:g:, and Beta Eta, Florida State. H.. .g ......... !!! t~oo.~:a:;I.U~

NEW COLONY- The former local, Kappa Sigma Chi, at Virginia Polytechnic Institute has been accepted as a colony of Pi Kappa Phi. The local's decision to go Pi Kapp was greatly assisted by the members of Xi, Roanoke, led by Munsey Moore. FALL CAMPAIGN RECESSES - A student and faculty proposal to dismiss classes at the University of Illinois for a week this fall to permit students to engage in political campaigning has been rejected by the University's Board of Trustees. The faculty of Harvard has similarly rejected a plan for a fall recess. How· ever, election time recesses have been accepted by several schools including Princeton, Columbia, John Hopkins, Stanford and Cornell. Coaches at many eastern institutions are "trying to envision what may happen" if their schools decide to close for election recesses or are subJ·ect to continued unrest. Coaches at most schools in the south and midlands say talk of shutdowns is news to them. COUNCIL OF ARCHONS- Pi Kappa Phi is proud that it was the first national fraternity to have an ad· visory board composed of undergraduate members. The Council of Archons is a select group of leaders from successful chapters. It acts as a sounding board for ideas, programs, and services developed at the National Office staff level. It further presents ideas and projects for the consideration of the National Office Staff. The members of the Council for 1969-70 were: Richard Swift, Gamma; Bob Swayne, Alpha Upsilon; Joe Ash, Psi; Larry Gregg, Alpha Psi; John Williams, Alpha Iota; Bill Young, Beta Upsilon; Bob Bux. Alpha Delta.

PENN STATE OUT OF SPACE - According to a recent survey, Penn State ranked third nationally in the total number of applications for admittance received (more than 30,000) and second in the number of qualified applicants who had to be refused admission (more than 10,000). LEFT HANDED STUDENTS SEEK EQUALITY- Seventy-five students in the Left-Handed Student Unioll at the University of Kansas marched into the office of the Chancellor demanding left-handed doors, left-handed desks, left-handed professors, even left-handed homecoming queens and cheerleaders. Your editor is heartily in accord with this movement, except as it applies to homecoming queens. Never could see that it made any difference in girls. FRATERNITY MEMBERS DO GRADUATE!- A recent report from the National Interfraternity Conference Commission on Fraternity Research, headed by Dr. Paul Van Riper of Cornell Universityfraternity members do graduate on schedule. According to the U.S. Office of Education less than 40% of all enrolling college students graduate on schedule. On campuses where there are no fraternities, this percent drops to 33%. The figures are startlingly different for fraternities, for 65% of all fraternity members do graduate and graduate on schedule. This staying power is indeed praise for the fraternity system.

In session- one on, two waiting.

It must be admitted that some minor grousingfor a very short time-was caused by the failure of the draft horses (it all comes that way, doesn't it) to arrive at the pier with the _draft. But the beautiful cruise and the view of the spectacular Chicago skyline on the Friday night boat trip made this a quickly forgotten incident. By way of recompense in this area, the 505 Club was in session at all hours of the night with Founder Bill Newell, Psi, very busy initiating the Club's Beta Chapter members. It mu.st be admitted also that thievery and widespread gambling also occurred. The Field Secretaries' underwear and shirts disappeared ... but the finger of suspicion quickly pointed to Brooklyn when raffle tickets went on sale with the underwear as a prize. The underwear-which turned out to be surprisingly dainty (shocking pink and see-through black) was won ( ?) by Durward Owen. The raffle, however, plus rental of Al Brown's socks and Tony Brown's violent suspenders resulted in a donation of $120.00 to the Scholarship Foundation from Alpha Xi Chapter. The first event of the convention, after an afternoon orientation meeting for all registrants, was the Wednesday night Kick-Off Banquet. Dennis Forsyth, Archon of Alpha Omicron, provided an excellent address for this affair, with magician Ward Thomas, Psi, providing entertainment. Three illustrious alums -whose presence made the convention more enjoyable for all-were introduced: George Grant, MSC, Omicron, the National Secretary from 1922 to 1925 and Alabama's leading congressman for many years; George Driver, MSC, Nu, the National President from 1923 to 1927; and Edward Shorty Clifford, MSC, a charter member of Alpha Theta, one of the founders of Beta Xi and a leading light for both chapters.

In additto~ (perhaps in spite of) innumerable committee J1l ttl ings, conferences, and all-night caucuses, the Supre Chapter met in 5 formal sessions. -~ Perhaps the most important pieces of legisJa.tl~ that were enacted had to do with Environrne~, Quality, Initiation Fees and Assessments, and J dergraduate Representation at National Council J1l ings.

Nick Galilianakis Keynote Speaker . .. Beta Psi and Gamma Nu Win Awards路

ENVIRONMENTAQl Congressman Nick Galifianakis, Mu, in his keynote address to the Supreme Chapter's Awards Luncheon, set the stage for Pi Kappa Phi's involvement in a national project to improve Environmental Quality. Brother Galifianakis said, "It is my sincere belief that the interest and efforts of hundreds of thousands of young people like you is the most encouraging sign on today's environmental horizon. ". . . We can be heartened, I think, in the knowledge that since people caused the problem, although it will take some doing, people can solve it." After outlining the history of the growing awareness of the problem we face, he added a warning, "The frustrations which the younger generation feels are understandable ... when it sees not only a continuing war in Vietnam-but the deteriorating quality of life which is accompanying our high-consumption society. These are frustrations which I share, as I am sure you do. "But the answers the disillusioned offer are often not real answers. 'Revolution now!' and 'Settle the environmental issue in the streets' are bold cries, wellsuited to young throats-and younger minds, but they are not the answer. "The only environmental problem to be solved in the streets is the removal of litter. And what revolutionary is willing to stoop to conquer? "I am reminded of the recent words of Senator Inouye of Hawaii when he said, 'We have been told that the revolts are against the system, that 'the establishment' must be torn down. But my fellow Americans, in Paris recently, students cut down hundred-year-old trees to erect temporary street barricades. Those trees had lived through two World Wars. Some of them had even survived the Revolution of 1884. Were the goals of these students served by the destruction of those trees? How long will it take for their beauty and the vitality they symbolized to grow again? What trees did the students plant in their place?'

Prior to the keynote address, the awards for the best chapter activity in improving environmental quality were made. 48 chapters indicated they were making an effort in this area and of these 16 made complete entries for an award. After careful judging of the many worthwhile chapter activities, the work evidenced by the entry of Beta Psi, Tennessee Wesleyan, was selected as the most effective and the Chapter received the $200 first place award. A committee of six from Beta Psi, under the direction of David Hambright, took charge of the Tennessee vVesleyan Roundtable and April was set aside as Environmental Month on the campus. Seven nationally recognized experts in the field were brought in to speak at various times, with a climax reached by the campus-wide Earth Day observance on April 22 with displays, films and a forum. In addition, the Chapter as a whole, planted 2000 trees in an area near the campus that had been denuded and on another occasion it cleared a street in Athens of many pounds of litter. Gamma Nu, LaGrange College, the runner-up, received the 2nd place award of $100 for its efforts to improve the quality of our environment. Gamma Nu's effort peaked with a 100 % participation of the Chapter and its Little Sisters in a day long (and a long rainy day) clean-up of 7 blocks in LaGrange. They not only picked up litter, they mowed grass, weeds and brush and removed junk piles from the area. On Earth Day the Chapter sponsored speakers, picked up litter on a two mile stretch of highway and held a parade culminating in the burial of an auto. The Chapter is planning a series of environmental programs for public schools and civic clubs for the fall. By the action of the Supreme Chapter, Environmental Quality continues to be the Pi Kapp thing. Chapters should start their planning now for 197071 activities in this area.

SUPREME CHAPTER CITES THREE FOR MERITORIOUS SERVICE

Brother Melville E. Metcalfe, who has long been a servant of Pi Kappa Phi, is an initiate of Alpha Gamma Chapter, University of Oklahoma. He has served as National Historian 1961-1964, Nat 1 on a I President 1964-1966, and District President 1958-1964. This fine gentleman was selected as "Mr. Pi Kappa Phi" in 1968. He is also an excellent speaker and entertainer ; and is a devoted Pi Kapp brother.

The highest recognition Pi Kappa Phi can give a brother is the Citat1on for Meritorious Service. It can only be given by a vote of the Supreme Chapter for "exceptionally meritorious service" upon a recommendation from the National Council, and usually is given only after the service for which the honor is granted is completed. Only 78 of the nearly 30,000 Pi Kapps have been recipients of the Citation for Meritorious Service. If you have wondered what "MSC" after a few brothers' names in this and the preceding Star and Lamp meant, you now know ... Meritorious Service Citation. The 33rd Supreme Chapter was unanimous in awarding well-deserved citations to the 3 brothers whose resolutions of approval follow.

Executive Director Durward Owen rece1vmg his Citation from former National President Kim Jepson and National President Jack Steward.

Brother Wayne R. Moore, member of Alpha Omicron Chapter of Iowa State University, has acted as a chapter advisor, president of Alpha Omicron Housing Corp., National Historian from 19501952 and National Secretary from 1952-1956. He was a delegate to the N.I.C. in 1953 and a district president from 1947-1951. Brother Moore has played a guiding role in the development of not only his chapter, but also his National fraternity; and we of Pi Kappa Phi wish to acknowledge our indebtedness to his devotion.

12 /THE STAR AND LAMP

While the Citation for Meritorious Service, Pi Kappa Phi's highest award of recognition for exceptional service is traditionally not granted to a Brother while still serving in the position in which he earned recognition, there is precedent to permit such an award in very unusual situations. This Brotherhood has enjoyed its greatest period of sound growth and prosperity during the past decade, and this progress, while the fruits of the labors of many, was made possible by the dedicated leadership and administrative capabilities of our

. tof Executive Director. In the ~tS J)i of Pi Kappa Phi no Executtve ~ rector has served for 10 years, 8~f no more dedicated Brother 路t ever served the Fraternity, ~~ ing freely of his family life, dd affection, his time, his un ~ standing and his genius, evellsfr the detriment of his physical St financial well being. The 33rdpot preme Chapter awarded to eC~ ward Warren Owen, Xi, E" fl tive Director of Pi Kappa , Fraternity and Secretary-'l't~ urer of Pi Kappa Phi Proper. 11 Inc., the Citation for Meritor 1 ~ Service as a small token of tt love and respect of all his Br0 ers in Pi Kappa Phi.

After many hours of discussion on ways and means to raise funds to increase the corpus of the fund, it was agreed that Brother Viguerie should conduct a mail campaign for donations, that the tax exempt status of gifts to the Foundation should be publicized in the Star and Lamp and that a person-to-person campaign for gifts and bequests should be developed. In the area of Scholarship and Awards, the Trustees moved to: -Distribute $1000 in grants or loans during the balance of 1970. -Make loans at a rate of 6 % with repayment to begin one year after graduation with a maximum of $1000 to any individual. -Make loans and grants in consultation with the National Scholarship Chairman. -Give cash awards to each recipient of Pi Kappa Phi Scholar awards. -Pay the expense of the Student Key award to the leading scholar in each Chapter. -Give to the Chapter winning the annual Edington Award the sum of $5.00 for each active member, the funds to be used for scholarship purposes by the Chapter. -Give to the Chapter winning the annual Gibbon Award $100.00 to be used for scholarship purposes.

Two Initiated At Model Initiation

The model initiation at the 33rd Supreme Chapter was ably performed by the initiation team of Alpha Psi, University of Indiana, which received a resolution of appreciation from the delegates. Two men both legacies from the National Council, and who did not attend schools with a Pi Kapp chapter, were initiated. Robert Lee Bennett, Jr., son of the National Chancellor was initiated into Alpha Alpha and Noel Kimball Jepson, Jr., son of the former National President, was initiated into Alpha Theta. Brother Bennett is presently working on his M.A. in Political Science at the University of Virginia. He received his B.A. in 1969 from the University of Denver where he majored in Political Science. At Denver he was a member of Pi Gamma N u, an honor society, and a member of the Board of Publications, Board of Governors, Student Senate and the Alpine Club. Bob also served on many committees and was selected one of the twelve outstanding seniors. Brother Jepson attended Northern Michigan University and received his B.A. degree from Western Michigan University in 1968. He earned his M.A. from the University of Wisconsin, Milwaukee, in 1969 in Personnel Administration. He served in the Infantry at Fort Wood and Fort Jackson prior to receiving his degree. Noel, wife Judy, and 6-months-old David live in Milwaukee where he is a Technical and Professional Counsellor for Butterfield Employment Agency. Prior employment includes Employment Counsellor at Career Academy and Assistant Personnel Officer at U.W.M. 14 I THE STAR AND LAMP

Pi Kappa Phi Properties Has Sound Progress

Pi Kappa Phi Properties, Inc., held its 3rd membership meeting during the Supreme Chapter with Frank Hawthorne, MSC, presiding. The Treasurer reported that the Corporation had operated in the black for the preceding bienium, had increased its total capital to $80,265.49, and held title to 8 chapter houses with a depreciated book value of $429,193.16. Two additional houses, Lambda at Georgia and Beta Phi at East Carolina State are in the process of transfer. After detailed discussion, the members voted to make numerous minor operational amendments to its Articles of Incorporation, and an important change which includes membership for each chapter housing corporation member whose corporation transfers its equity to Pi Kappa Phi Properties. Nominees of chapter housing corporations, the National Council and Executive Director of Pi Kappa Phi and the Chairman of the Investment Trust Fund are members of the Board of Directors by the Articles. In addition to these Board members, the membership reelected Frank Hawthorne, MSC, James L. May, Jr., and Kim Jepson as Directors. Allen Morris, Iota, of Coral Gables, Florida was a newly elected Director. Immediately following the meeting of the membership, the 5th meeting of the Board of Directors was held. The Board reelected Frank Hawthorne, President, James L. May, Jr., 2nd Vice President and Durward Owen, Secretary-Treasurer. Kim Jepson was elected 1st Vice President. Elected to the Executive Committee, which has the responsibility of handling the day-by-day operations of the Corporation were the officers and John Deimler (Chairman, Investment Trust Fund), Elmer Jost (National Chaplain), and Allen Morris. The By-Laws of the Corporation were amended to correspond with the amendments made in the Articles during the membership meeting. Brother Ron Krebs of St. Louis presented a blanket insurance program which he had worked out at the request of the National Council. Since it was evident that the coverage would be greater and the expense substantially less, the Board voted in favor of the proposal. Presentations were made by representatives of the chapter housing corporations for Alpha Omega and Gamma Epsilon Chapters which have been having difficulty in meeting their obligations to the Corporation. After discussion it was agreed to continue both under present circumstances, with the situation to be reviewed in January, 1971. Representatives of the chapter housing corporations of Alpha Theta, Michigan State and Beta Eta, Florida State presented petitions to transfer these properties to the Corporation at a cost not to exceed $4000 and $20,000 respectively. Approval was given to both petitions.

THE NATIONAL COUNCIL PRESIDENT Jack Steward, Alpha Zeta-Oregon State, has been elected N a tiona! President after long and distinguished service to Pi Kappa Phi. During his undergraduate years he was Chaplain, Historian, Secretary and Archon of Alpha Zeta. Immediately after graduation he joined the National Office as a Travelling Secretary for several years. When he left the employment of the fraternity to begin his business career, Jack continued his activity with the fraternity on the West Coast and in 1957 became an Area Governor. In 1964 he was elected to the National Council as National Historian. In 1966 he became National Secretary and in 1968, the first National Vice President. Brother Steward's vocation is personnel work, and he is now Director of Personnel for the University of Oregon and is a member of the College and University Personnel Officers Association. Jack's wife, Carolyn, and children, Scott and Karen, join him in his enthusiasm for camping and fishing. They reside in Eugene, Oregon. VICE PRESIDENT Theodore A. Scharfenstein, Jr . . . . better known to thousands of Pi Kapps as Ted . . . and to many as Little Beaver ... has become National Vice President after continuous service to the fraternity since his initiation at Beta Beta-Florida Southern. After graduation in 1961 he joined the National Office staff as a Travelling Secretary. He was Assistant Executive Director when he left in 1965 for graduate study at George Washington University where he earned his M.B.A. in 1968. During this period he was an Area Governor and when his career as a hospital administrator took him to Miami he became Chapter Advisor for Alpha Chi. Moving to Birmingham, Alabama, to become Assistant Administrator for the Baptist Medical Center, he became Chapter Advisor for Alpha Eta and was a leader in founding the Colony at Montevallo. Ted has also served several times as a Chartering Officer, was a member of the Organizational Restructuring Committee, and is presently a member of the Select Study Committee.

Gamma Uses Its Brains ... For Archons

Gamma has a habit of selecting top students for its Archons . . . a habit other chapters might well emulate. Neal Evans, for example, was the top physics graduate at the University of California in his senior year. Neal is now living in the chapter hou~e tutoring underclassmen in science and math while working under Nobel Prize winner Charles Townes on a NASA scholarship. Last spring's Gamma Archon, Paul Healy, ~as an even more illustrious record-he was second highest scholastically among Cal's 8,000 graduating seniors. Paul is slightly apologetic about his 3.98 grade, "it's the result of an A- in my junior year." Paul, a native of Medford, Massachusetts, attended the University of Massachusetts and was a member of the S. W. Residential College Council, Presidents' Council, the Dean's Committee on University Affairs, the Newman Club, Crew and on the Dean's List. He then transferred to the University of California because of its Department of Anthropology, and was awarded a full scholarship. Initiated by Gamma in January, 1969, he was elected Historian, and in his senior year Archon. While in college Paul was totally self-supporting, never holding less than two part-time jobs per term. He tried everything from a shipping clerk and hospital lab assistant to a mailman and factory worker. Last year he worked as a research assistant and reader for several members of the faculty. He also served as a volunteer worker at the California School for the Blind and Deaf and was a member of the University Honor Society. His academic area is anthropology, particularly in archaeology, in which he has received extensive field practice, both in the United States and Mexico. Graduated with "Highest Distinction" (summa cum laude) in June, he was elected to Phi Beta Kappa, and was selected as the Senior Class speaker at the initiation exercises. Paul plans to enroll in a graduate school in 1971 to work for a Doctorate in Anthropology. With a Ph.D. he hopes to achieve his goal of becoming a college professor, doing research and teaching.

KEN CRAFT'S ALUMNI PROJECT

,0 tO路

By Rod MacDonald

arY

Feature Writer, Newsweek

!e

There's an old legend at the University of Virginia's Pi Kap Chapter that an alumni brother once returned to give a $10,000 donation. No one knew him or paid any attention, so the would-be donor left unhappy. But whether the story is true or not, Ken Craft's effective new alumni relations project will probably assure that it need never happen again. Craftie, as the Beta Upsilon brothers best know him, started a year ago with only some old addresses and a desire to bring the alumni back into the fraternity. Now he has current information for at least three-fourths of the alumni and has built a program that could easily be a model for other chapters to follow in furthering alumni involvement. "I wanted to find a way that we could all keep in touch even after we had left the university," said Craftie, a 1969 graduate. "The chapter publication is too undergraduate oriented, and there had been no effort to update the alumni files, so I decided to do it myself." Holding the files in his apartment, he keeps them current by filing all correspondence as it is received, following a personal maxim-"The secret is to keep ahead in the work." Each day incoming mail is checked for addresses, and if there is any new information it is quickly sent out to members of the class, the chapter and the national. The idea for such a project first developed as the chapter faced its tenth anniversary at the University of Virginia. "We decided to throw an anniversary

FALL '70 /23


celebration and bring the alumni brothers back together again," he says. So the prestigious Boars Head Inn in Charlottesville was booked and invitations were mailed this July. Within three weeks 35 of the 140 alumni brothers have indicated they plan to attend, and many more are expected to sign up later. A tentative schedule has been arranged, including a formal Rose Ball and a "chapter meeting" in mid-afternoon. The three-day affair is expected to generate a lot of previously-lost alumni enthusiasm back to the fraternity. The basic job in the program is simple-keep the files straight. The setup then works in two ways, to process incoming information and to keep the brothers supplied with chapter news. Each day Craftie takes his mail, which may average ten items per day, and cross-references it along a "flow chart" set up for the purpose, which describes how to file the data, inform the national, and report to the chairman of the writer's class. At the same time, Craftie insures that the brother has been receiving his chapter and national publications, and if not, he corrects the mailing address. The process takes less than 30 minutes a day, but is current enough so that "we get something from him every day," according to Chuck Cummings at the National Office. The outgoing mail is done on a bulk basis. After figuring out the relative costs of bulk vs. individual mailings (which were distributed nationally through the Spot Shot last year), Craftie has the letters printed, including what may be address updates, requests for more information, or invitations to the May celebration. Aided by nearby alumni such as myself and Bob Driscoll, Craftie sends out the mailings on an assembly-line basis, informing the 140 alumni at minimal cost within one or two hours. "It doesn't take long once you get down to it," he says, adding that, "It's just that no one ever tried to do it before." Address labels are supplied by the national office and the chapter pays for mailings, so at a limited cost the alumni stay remembered. The latest achievement is establishing the "class chairman" system, which decentralizes the responsibility for keeping addresses current with selected members of each graduating class. This process leaves Craftie free to work on the May celebration. "We have the most recent information now, so it's up to the individual classes to keep it straight," he said. Using the updated information, an address directory is compiled periodically and mailed to all alumni. "The chapter magazine is too full of 'in' jokes and undergraduate stuff, without enough concern for the alumni," he says. "So we get the latest correspondence out ourselves." Using the directories, individual class members may then write to each other without having to go through the alumni program. Such work is nothing new for Craftie, an MBA student at Atlanta's Emory University who was Beta Upsilon's secretary and "outstanding brother" in his last year there. But the main value is the great response the program has generated, he says. One alumni brother wrote, "I would not like to lose sight of those days at University of Virginia and the brothers with whom I shared them. I hope that the enclosed

24 I THE STAR AND LAMP

will help to make this an annual project." And from as far 路away as Illinois and Massachu signed up to attend the Tenth Anniversary tion. Encouraged, he recently drew up op manuals for chapter offices, using his gradu ness training to detail the duties of each Although the manuals haven't met with rn sponse from the present brothers, Craftie hopes will serve as a basis for some efficiency in the operations. And the program also includes with current brothers on alumni relations, for says, "The best way to keep it all going is to each class ready to participate when it Thanks to a year's hard work from alu Craft, the brothers who helped make Beta Master Chapter for 4 years and successful Va., can relive some of those fraternal times they return to Charlottesville next May.

Owen Executive Director-Pi Kappa Phi --It can be ~ssumed that too many of the average and above average students are viewing fraternities in a more negative sense, questioning the ability of fraternities to relate to the "now" generation of students. It can also be assumed that they are concerned about the current practices of fraternities as they relate to rush and pledge education. I disagree with the first assumption, feeling that fraternities can relate to any generaticm. If they will relate is another question! As to the second assumption, I think the concern is justifiable.


A Critical Analysis ...

This possible negative attitude of students becomes more difficult to understand when you view the current attitude of school administrators and professors -traditional antagonists of fraternities. This group is, in general, evidencing a marked change to a more positive attitude toward fraternities.

CRITICISM OF RUSH 1. Rush programs are designed to recruit pledges, not members. 2. Rush is hard and time consuming work. Therefore, it reduces member interest and participation. 3. Freshmen (and upper classmen) are more knowledgeable and not so easily impressed with the glitter of formal rush functions and procedures. · 4. As rush results have declined we have seen our rush efforts complicated rather than simplified. The more complicated they are the more difficult they are to make work. 5. The average student is more acutely aware of the need for scholastic excellence and is, therefore, more reluctant to chance any involvement which might detract. 6. Some of the "better" prospects for fraternity membership are sophomores and juniors-yet existing rush programs are directed to freshmen only. 7. With highly structured and mechanical rush programs we find ourselves omitting the possibility of success in continued informal rush. 8. In this time of an individual's need for identification, we are attempting to entice members through rush programs which in general can be described as cold and impersonal. 9. The results of rush efforts are seldom worth the dollar spent-a business firm would go broke if it sold in such an inefficient manner. 10. Questioning non-members are not receiving answers-either as a result of the overly structured and impersonal rush program or through individual member's inability to communicate (or know) fraternity. 11. Our prime product (if not our only product) is the close friendship of a brotherhood relationship-an aspect which cannot be verbally related or communicated-but instead must be observed and experienced.

The chapter would then decide if they want this individual to continue participation as a memberand if so, vote on him for initiation as a brother. With an invitation extended the individual must make a simple decision-does he want to continue this participation which he has enjoyed ... the brotherhood he has seen (not just heard about) . . . this fraternity which he has now experienced? If he doesn't, his participation stops immediately. If he desires it, then pledge him and immediately thereafter initiate him-as a first class citizen, as an equal, as a person, as a member, as a brother. For varying reasons some individuals may require a brief period of time prior to initiation-but this should not be confused with a traditional pledge period. Then educate him through continued participation -as an example, this program could call for a series of events or actions through which he must pass or accomplish before he can: (1) be an officer; (2) be a committee chairman; (3) vote in a chapter meeting. These conditions could include: (1) thorough study of facts, figures, and history of the chapter and Pi Kappa Phi Fraternity and the subsequent passing of a written examination as evidence of his knowledge; (2) serve on one o;r more committees; (3) have achieved a certain predetermined grade point average; ( 4) participated in X number of extra-curricular activities; (5) served as an assistant to an officer. Study will reveal that such an approach will place much more emphasis on the involvement and responsibility of the chapter member for success. Also, many local campus factors must be considered in such a radical alteration of our traditional concepts. However, if such a program is favorably received by your chapter, the National Office is willing and able to be of help in personally applying it to your campus. I would appreciate your response to this concept, or better still, if you are an undergraduate, all of your chapter's positive or negative comments, suggestions or additions or deletions, and ideas as to possible implementation. I am firmly convinced that we must heed the advice of Justice Holmes, who said: "We dare not do otherwise than to participate both in the action and passions of our times for fear of being judged not to have Jived."
