Approval of new rushing procedures for campus social units was granted by the university administration this summer, it was announced last week by Karl Snow, Inter-Organizational Council president.
In a 10-point procedural outline, it was provided that all units with dues-paying memberships of less than 40 at the beginning of each quarter shall be required to rush. Minimum membership for all units will be 40 and maximum will be 60 members.
PROPOSAL FOR the rushing procedure was presented to the administration last spring after a committee headed by Snow held hearings with faculty members and students.
Applicants for membership in the units will appear at the student coordinator’s office on the second Monday following open house to complete unit preference and application forms.
Three units, in order of preference, will be listed on the forms. “This,” snow asserted, “will enable all persons to enter a social unit who so desire. However, this does not necessarily assure the applicant that he will enter the unit of his first choice.
