Panhellenic Council

Officers of the Panhellenic Council: Janice Fox, Treasure r; Suzanne Tamp­lin, Recording Secretary; Nilda Ramella , Corresponding Secretary; Peggy Bentley, Vice President; and Mary Chafin, President.

Panhellenic is derived from two Greek words, "Pan" meaning all, and "Hellenic" meaning Greek. Thus, Panhellenic has come to mean an organization of all Greek letter fraternities for women . The Marshall University Panhellenic Council is composed of the President and two representatives from each sorority. The Council directs rushing activities and sets the rules which govern the sororities . They also plan and direct various activities in which all the sororities participate, such as Greek Week and the Mothers' Day Sing . The Panhellenic Council encour­ages high scholarship by offering a trophy to the group with the highest over-all scholastic average at the end of each academic year. After winning the scholarship cup for three consecutive years, the sorority may retire the trophy.

Junior Panhellenic Council

The Junior Panhellenic Council is composed of the president and a representative of the pledge class of each social sorority. While members of the Council, the pledges are instructed so that they will be able to take an active interest in the Panhellenic Council and understand it better. Each year the representatives in this group from the six national sororities sponsor a project to raise money.

Alpha Chi Omega

Taking a rest break ore Ann Cloy, Nancy McColl, Becky Farley, and Barbaro Conley.

Alpha Chi Omega is more than just a sorority-it is a way of life. Our open motto, "Together let us seek the heights," means not only the searching for self improve­ment, but also that we may lend a hand to those who are not so fortunate . This is best illustrated by the great emphasis which Alpha Chi places on altruistic projects.

During the past year we have been re­warded by enjoying the sisterhood of our sorority, and many of our sisters have brought honor upon our name.

The campus honoraries and other or­gonizations claim many A-Chi-O's as mem­bers. Jeanne Pitts honored us by being named to Who's Who. Carol Ann Wilkes is a varsity cheerleader, and Judy Mathisen is freshman cheerleader captain . Politicians we are tool Yes, we have four senators : Jennie Cummings, Brenda Keys, Betsy Daniel, and Jeanne Pitts. Also, there are many Alpha Chi's serving as Student Government Coordinators. In addition to this , many of our sisters participate in campus theatre productions.

Yes, we have talents in every field, and with them we shall someday "reach the heights."

These p ledges don't seem to mind a little hazing from their active siste rs. Participati ng ore: Marcia Eddy, Diona Lohr, Marilyn Hall , Betsy Daniels, Becky Roberts, Suzanne Scott, Ann McCoskey, and Ebe rl y Smith.

Planning and hard work were in order for house decorations for Marshall's Homecoming . A stork de­livering a football brought out the theme, "We're Expecting Victory."

Holidays and celebrations brought the sisterhood together in work, planning, fun, and ploy. A hayr ide, donee, and wiener roast marked Halloween 1960 a time to remember. The Winter Formal marking Christmas and the winter season was held in December at the Spring Volley Country Club. To mark the Spring season, the American Legion Ballroom was the site of our Spring Formal.

A philanthropic project was assumed at Thanksgiving when we gave a basket of food to a needy family . Early Spring rolled around and time for the annual Mardi Gras Boll. The costumes worn by all were many and varied. Springtime and the spirit of the Mardi Gras were in the air . Ending another successful school year with a feel­ing of enjoyment and pleasure, the Alpha Sigs now look forwotd to next year .

"Fuzzies" are very active in campus activities also. Jennie Windsor and Lois Brown are senators. Joyce Jarrett is a ma­jorette. Ruthie Fuller and Suzanne Tamplin are varsity cheerleaders, and three out of the six freshman cheerleaders are "Fuzz­ies." Also, many Alpha Xi's are members of honor groups, such as : Fagus, Alpha Lambda Delta, Kappa Delta Pi, etc.

The Alpha Xi's social life this year in­cluded a "Sadie Hawkins" dance, the "Castle Ball/' and the "Rose Formal." Also, there were numerous house parties through­out the year with different campus frats at which time the "Fuzzies" proudly dis­played their newly decorated house.

Delta Zeta

Delta Zeta officers ore: Corresponding Secretory, Sandra Spenser; First Vice President , Martha Ayres; Pres ident , Sandra Strohmyer; Second Vice Pres ident, Elaine Moren ; and Recording Secretory, Fernia Shewsberry.

Along with the "growth of Marshall" has been the growth of Delta Zeta, which is the second oldest national sorority on Marshall's campus. Initiated at Marshall on June 21, 1922, as Delta Sigma Epsilon, Delta Zeta now has more chapters in the United States than any other national sorority. Continuing its growth, our chapter pledged twenty-two new sisters the first semester.

More growth in Delta Zeta is shown as the sisters work in unity and harmony toward helping themselves, their friends and acquaintances, and many underprivi­leged children. The results of our combined efforts brought to us, the Delta Upsilon Chapter, two silver trays presented at na­tional convention. Through individual and combined efforts the sisters won the scholar­ship trophy for the highest over-all average of any sorority on campus .

To help Marshall grow, Delta Zetas not only worked together, but with the other sororities on campus. Rewarded for their achievements, Sandra Strohmeyer and Mary Hanna were named to Who's Who.

In the years to come the growth of Marshall will continue as will the growth of Delta Zeta .

Music and cord playing ore enjoyed by the DZ 's before going to bed. Seen here are, Row 1: Judy Chambers, Morna Paula vicks, Jeanine Beane, Mary Hanna , and Nancy Shoemake r. Row 2: Barbara Tatum, Peg Hubbard, Marcia Campbe ll , and Eva Wharton.

"One for all and all for one," say the Sigma Kappas. So they unite in work, study, fun, and play. The result is sincere pride in the sorority. Delta Beta Chapter claimed three awards at national convention this year-endowment, activities, a n d best newsletter. Sigma Kappas also proudly dis­played the Mothers' Day Sing trophy.

When school started, Sigmas had many freshman guides and a host of campus leaders. Joyce Rutledge, Jane Scandala, and Charlotte Dudderar were named to Who's Who. Joyce and Jane were in Fagus, and Joyce was Leadership Camp Coordinator. The Parthenon claimed two Sigmas as editors, Margy Williams and Patty Poliskey, also Fourth Estate President. Nancy Parsons and Vickie Miller were senators. Sharon Haselip and Barbara Charles were varsity cheerleaders, and Barbara Collins and Donna Darbes were freshman cheerleaders.

Let's hear a rebel yell and a chorus of Dixie because here come the KA's .

The men with the Southern tradition come to the Marshall campus in 1927 and since that time hove been active in all school activities. This post year has been no exception . After a very productive rush season the Kappa Alphas declared on open season on the social calendar. A "Beatnik Boll" and the "Convivium Formal/' which honors Robert E. Lee's birthday, highlighted the fall semester. The climax of the social season, of course, was the annual "Old South Week End ." The Week End included a parade, the formal Old South Ball and featured the gentlemen of the Old South, complete with beards, confederate uni­forms, and the beautiful Southern belles .

The year was 1 909, the month was March, the day was the 22nd, the place was Boston University. These are the most important facts concerning the founding of Lambda Chi Alpha, the youngest national fraternity in the United States .

Three law student s founded Alpha Zeta of Lambda Chi Alpha , and in the fifty-two years since, the fraternity has risen to a place of leadership among its brother or­ganizations, with 150 chapters .

Marshall's chapter of Lambda Chi was

founded December 7, 1946. The founding was due mainly to the efforts of two faculty members, Professor Ralph Hron, now re­tired, and Professor Berkley Shaeffer, still active in fraternity work. Both were mem­bers of the physics department .

Striving daily to tell all of the virtues of the Cross and the Crescent, working for the fraternity and for Marshall University, the Lambda Chi's strength is growing for the good of the school as well as for the good of the brothers of Lambda Chi Alpha.

Pi Kappa Alpha

Delta Iota , the largest Pi Kappa Alpha Chapter in West Virginia, entered the 1961 school year with a smash , that was typical and resounding of the Pikes .

Since the ir installment on the Marshall campus in 1948, the Pikes have long been among the leaders in social events, campus acti vities, intramurals and in c ivic affairs . This year was no except ion, as a new dance, the She ik's Shuffle, was added to the Pike social calendar, and it was accepted in riotously typical fashion.

Appearing en masse at the past two d istrict conventions, Delta Iota has walked away with all honors and also boasts claim to the first and second, District 5 Dream Girl with Alicia Elkins Underwood and Linda Brown Stevenson .

With the completi on of the year, the brothers of Pi Kappa Alpha look to next year for more and better things fo r Pi Kappa their fraternity.

Tau Kappa Epsilon

Beta Nu Chapter of Tau Kappa Ep­silon, now the largest college fraternity in the world, enjoyed a bright and re­wording year on the Marshall Campus .

Fifty-nine actives and twenty-eight pledges spent many hours of hard work to bring home for the fourth straight yeo r the Homecoming trophy for the Queen's Float, acclaimed by many to be one .of the most elaborate ever seen in the big day's parade . To start the new year of 1961, the "house with the white pillars" underwent a $1300 remodeling job in January, adding a modern touch to our nineteenth century home .

With men representing us in the Robe, ODK, Senate, Student Government mem­bers, including the office of Student Body Vice President, Bond, Varsity M, Who's Who, and many others, the outlook for the future is most promising .

In March, we won second place at Ohio University at the Teke Intramural Tournament, and danced at our "Ship­wreck" dance. Drive-in parties, and par­ties with the sororities enlivened the lives of all Tekes.

The pledge classes have proven to be very industrious and hard working, and a steady increase in membership for the post several semesters has mode Beta N u the Ia rqest chapter of Tau Kappa Epsilon in the state of West Virginia .

This year has been a bonner year for the Independent Student Association. There were many changes in the I.S.A. The biggest one was the change from a group form of govern­ment to on executive council form which was governed by pre-ele"cted officers who were Ronald G. Hurley, President; Ann Combs, Vice President; Carolyn Reed, Secretory; and Mary Frances O'Connor, Treasurer. These people hove strengthened our group greatly as hove the Societas and the Cavaliers, our counterparts.

The big social function of the year was the annual Sweethearts' Boll held in February at which time the I.S.A. Sweetheart was crowned .

Societas

Societas began the school year with a rush tea which was followed by two rush parties : a pizza party and "A Night at the Blue Angel" party with candlelight and all!

Next· in line for the busy Societas wo­men was the pledging ceremony and the pledge period which kept the pledges occu­pied-with duties, tests, and earning merits . Homecoming found the pledges and actives working together on their Home­coming decoration, and at informal parties given by this group, the pledges and actives enjoyed themselves, and especially did they

enjoy the Christmas party with the Cavalier fraternity .

The second semester brought the acti­vation of the pledges and another rushing period . In February the Independent Stu­dents Association Sweetheart Ball was held which was a real bright spot in the cold winter . At the big dance was crowned the ISA Sweetheart.

This year in Societas found a unity of members and a true achievement of sister­hood . It found the girls working closely together toward the goal of another good year in Societas.

This year the Cavaliers, aided by a hard working pledge class and marked suc­cess in the intramural program, increased its strength and brotherhood immensely. The establishment of a Cavalier chapter at Concord College added enthusiasm to the local chapter.

The hours spent making papier mache and the other activities peculiar to Home­coming helped to get the school year started
