freshmen had visited at least onefraternity. Last sear at this time,the number of freshmen who hadvisited fraternities was slightlyless. Joe Chapmlan, Interfrater-nity Conference (IFC) president,conimmented that rush appeared tobe going very smoothly.

Jil Thompson, IFC JudicialConmmittee Chairman. said hewas "plealsed that there have beenrelatively few coinplaints of rush\violations so far" and added that"the fraternity rush chairmenscene to be communicating witheach other better this year than inthe past." fie also noted thatcomplaints of rush violations 'donot have to be filed until Registra-tion Day.

One fraternity rush chairmancommented that he has been"impressed with this year's

freshman class," but "there's beena lot of cross rushing betweenhouses and competition is fierce."Another rush chairman waspleased that he had seen "manygood freshmen" and noted that".a lot of MIT freshwomlen havestopped by the house."

morning, and freshmen maypledge a fraternity no earlier thanMonday morning.

Many dorms are also sponsor-ing parties this weekend. Dor-mitory Committee JudicialChairman Thatcher Root com-mented that there have been "a

couple of small problems" in con-nection with Dorm R/O, butnothing major."'

Freshmen are advised that dor-mitory preference cards are due at6pmr Monday in the R/O centerand rooming assignments will beavailable on Tuesday.

Despite attempts spread overnearly 40 years, MIT has stillnot been able to rename theHarvard Bridge, TechnologyBridge, but it is still trying.

By Jordana HollanderThis year's freshman class has

the highest percentage of womenin M IT's history, and this isreflected in the wide variety ofR/O activities organized forw O I1en.

With only three co-ed frater-nities, the freshwomen do nothave Las wide a choice as theirnmale counterparts, and they areencouraged to visit the No. 6Club, Epsilon Theta, and PiKAthis weekend. Part of a successfulrush1 includes the co-ed frats at-tr;action of enough women.

If the university is to meritits important place in society,teachers and administratorsought to be working toward astronger union of professionaland liberal learning. VWe owesuch an effort to the studentsso that their lives and careersmay be more fruitful, and weowe it to society so that lifemay be richer for everyone.The final test of the value ofhigher education is not howgood we are as professionalsor as humanists, but how com-petent we are in improving thehum1an condition.

Sec. ]. The First throughTenth Articles of amendmentshall not apply to all personswho are homosexuals, Com-munists atheists, or believersin paganism; nor to anypersons who refuse to take anoath of allegiance to the NewTestament of the Holy Bibleand to Our Lord and SaviorJesus Christ.

such as Senior House, EastCampus, Baker, Burton and thelanguage houses at New Houseare holding various brunches,luncheons and informal gettogethers for women only. Theseallow the freshwomen to meetand talk with upperclasswomenalready living at the dorm and toask labOUt the dorm and life atMIT for women in general.

For those women preferringsingle-sex housing the two alter-natives aire the Wornen's Indepen-dent Living Group (WILG) andMcCormick Hall. This is WILG'sthird year in existence as a livinggroup and Rush Chairman KatyMalcor '79 said that they hoped

:,:':: '?:' ,, L

to fill their house for the firsttime. She added that the largernumber of wonmen in the classgave WILG a wider sampling ofpeople to meet, but that the mostimportant factor in this year'srush is having more upperclass-women to talk with visitors.

McCormick Hall is also at-tempting to make the new womenstudents feel welcome at MIT.R/O Chairman Teresa Lantz '81noted that the R/O Committeealways had several upperclass-women in the lobby to greet thefreshwomen and answer anyquestions they might have. Ac-cording to Lantz, the increase inthe number of entering womenmeans that McCormick will beFacing the same problems as otherdorms such as severeovercrowding. The larger classalso means, however, that "wemeet more women" continuedLantz, which is "good for them"and more interesting for the up-perclasswomen.

Apart from the living groups'efforts to meet the freshwomen,the Women's R/O Committee isholding a variety of tours,brunches, and parties all week.Lilli Petruzzelli '80 Women's

K/O Committee Co-chairman,said that these activities werestrictly for women so that theycould meet other women. TheMargaret Cheney Room (3-310)will serve as a center for all theseactivities and will be a placewhere freshwomen can always becertain of welcomne, added Petruz-z.elli. She also commented that theturn-out for the morning brunchwas fIantastic and asked anywonIlen students to "stop bysomcztime."
