Panhellenic Council
"United we stand, divided we fall", is the motto
of the Panhellenic Council as they work together
in many campus functions. An exciting service
performed this past year by the sorority members
was their work and participation during the Inauguration
\Veek. The girls acted as guides and
hostesses, and sponsored a reception for President
and Mrs. Gates.
Upholding the standards of intellectual achievement,
the council awards the Panhellenic Scholarship
trophy to the sorority with the highest grade
point each semester. The trophy went to Delta
Zeta sorority for the 1966 spring semester, then
to the Alpha Phi sorority for the 1966 fall semester.
Pledges entertain the Greeks and the student body in skits sponsored
by Panheilenic Council.
Another combined effort of all sorority members
was the Formal Rush. Plans for this event
began in the fall of the year when the council
prepared and sent out newsletters to freshmen
orientating them to sorority life. Provision of
counselors before and during rush is another
service of the council. An all-sorority tea is the
initial function of Formal Rush.
Two girls from each sorority represent the
unity of all the girls as they meet each week to
discuss their college and sorority interests. Miss
June Tenckhoff, assistant Dean of Women, is
their advisor.
Actives and Rushees enjoy the Panhellenic Formal tea.
