New Exec Board Meets
The first meeting of the new Ex
ecutive Board was held on Mon
day evening with about two-third.5
of the new Board present.
In the first order of business
Randy Smart, senior president, mov
ed that John Gorham be accepted
on the Executive Board with ex of
ficio membership. Gorham had ear
lier been appointed student coordi
nator by President David Webb. The
motion passed.
A second motion by Smart moved
that Dead Week be permanently re
moved from, the college claendar.
The motion was made when it was
learned that the planned Dead
Week during November of 1965
would interfer with preparations for
the Homecoming activities. The mo
tion passed. On this same note
Cookie Wickham, vice pesident, mov
ed to recommend to the adacemic
dean of the college that a reading
day be considered for incorparation
into the college calendar. The motion
passed by a narrow margin.
On a final motion, it was moved
that the Executive Board approve
to the Concert and Assembly Com
mittee an allocation of $2800 for
next year. The motion was ruled
unconstitutional since approvements
for next year’s funds cannot be
made at this time.
David Webb, president, stated that
a misuse of the telephones in
the Co-op building had necessitated
the removal of the phones from the
building. One at least three oc
casions during the past academic
year bills had been received for
over $100 and most of this expense
had accumulated through personal
calls Webb reported.
Omega Chi Goes National With
ISame Changing to Theta Omega
On May 6, Omega Chi, the young
est sorority on the AC campus,
became the Theta Omega chapter
of Delta Zeta National Sorority.
Thirty sisters and one sponsor, Mrs.
Bin Smith, were pledged at the cer
emony conducted by Mrs. Norman
Agler, National Vice President in
charge of membership.
Delta Zeta Sorority is the largest
national sorority with 160 college
chapters. It is the second largest
■n membership with 53,000 sis
ters. It is ranked fifth in national
sororities. The closest chapter is
the Zeta Lambda chapter at East
Carolina.
Delta Zeta Sorority was founded
on October 24, 1902 at Miami Uni
versity, Oxford, Ohio. It was the
first sorority on the Miami campus.
The official flower of Delta Zeta
is the Killamey Rose. The colors
are Old Rose and Vieux Green and
the official jewel is the diamond.
The object of this sorority shall
be to unite its members in the
bonds of sincere and lasting friend
ships, to stimulate one another in
the pursuit of knowledge, to promote
the moral and social culture of its
members, and to develope plans for
guidance and unity in action; ob
jects worthy of the highest aim and
purpose of associated effort.
The chain of Delta Zeta friendship
is being widened each year through
its National Philanthropic Program
known as “adventures in Friend
ship.” The program is divided into
fields such as Gaullaudet College,
Washington, D. C. which is the
only college in the world devoted
entirely to the needs, instruction,
and training of young people who
are deaf. Many Delta Zeta chapters
throughout the United States are
purchasing hearing aids for under
privileged children. Other chapters
provide audiometers and technical
equipment, give scholarships to stu
dents specializing in audiology and
allied fields, and assit in speech
clinics. Delta Zeta also contributes
to the American Hearing Society for
its local centers. Another field of
this program is Carville, the only
hospital in the United States where
victims of Hansen’s disease are
treated. Through the Navajo Assis
tance Inc., college and alumnae
chapters donate clothing for use by
the Navajo Indians.
The Theta Omega chapter will be
initiated and installed the weekend
of October 2, 1965 and will be pre
sented officially to the city of Wilson
and the campus of Atlantic Chris
tian College.
