Council Elects
New President
jsgooa win serve unm juuc
when a regular IFC election will
put a new slate of officers in
power. The IFC constitution has
been interpreted to let the word
"term" mean a school year. For
this reason only Osgood was
elected instead of a complete
slate. s
The council passed a regula
tion requiring each pledge to
have 25 hours of academic credit,
10 of which must be C or above,
before initiation. This rule will
not affect present pledge classes
but will be applied to all future
pledge groups.
All house and dining room
chairmen were requested to plan
a meeting in the near future to
discuss mutjual problems and to
plan more efficient operations.
Pete Pully, IFC secretary, is in
charge of this meeting.
