If you make proper use of your adviser, you will not be likely to meet prob lems that you cannot surmount. It is the student who comes to college confident that he needs . no adviser who .most often finds himself faced with scholastic or other difficulties before the close of the freshman year. Fortify yourself against these difficulties by availing yourself of the service of your adviser whenever you are perplexed about any detail of your life at college, whether it per tains to college problems or to off-campus problems. During Freshman Week you are required to complete a number of activities. These are set forth clearly in the programs for the various groups in the pages that follow.

Counselors are expected to be close per so nal friends ready to give help and to advise on prob lems which they themselves probably had to meet in their freshman year. These problems will largely involve ques- 60 Michigan State College tions of the new students' fitting into new surroundings and of being successful in the st udent rommunity. The chairman for 1936-37 is Lois Sherman.

S. office in the \iVoman's Building. PANHELLENIC COUNCI L Each sorority is a member of the Panhellenic Council and sends two representatives, a junior and a senior, to the meetings which are held throughout the year at the call of the President. Panhell enic regulates rushing during the fall term and compiles scholarship statistics on the vario us sororities. A ll matters of common interest to these groups are discussed and reviewed at the meetings. A de legate is sent each year to the annual convention of the National Panhellenic Council. Rachel Minn-es is president of the organization fo r 1936-37. INTERFRA TERNITY COUNCIL All member fraternities send one delegate to the meet ings of the Interfraternity Council held weekly in the Union Building. Matters of common interest are discussed and problems reviewed. \ i\There action is needed, committees are appointed to invest igate, and the Council as a whole makes all decisions pertaining to interfraternity activities. The Interfraternity Council regu lates rushing during th e fall term and initiation during the winter and spring terms. A delegate is sent each year to the convention of the National Interfratcrnity Cou ncil. John R. Hamann is pres ident of the organization . (Complete details on rushing and initiation, together with s uggestions to new men, may be found on page 81.) Student Handbook 1936-37 61 Service MICHIGAN STATE UNION Built in 1925, the Michigan State Union Memorial Build ing serves as a college center for students, faculty members, alumni and visitors. Located near the entrance of the campus, the Union Memorial building- is well equipped to serve the purposes for which it was erected. The facilities include several private dining rooms, a ballroom, a cafeteria, soda fountain and grill, a main dining room, a spacious lobby, a barber shop, a woman's lounge, and faculty and student clubrooms. Various student offices are located in the east wing. Most of the college dances are held in the Union ballroom. The Union has a desk in its lobby which has become a . ce nter of personal service for the veneral student bod y. Besides selling tobacco and class supplies, it maintains a second-hand textbook service, and is a general agency for tickets to all college functions. The Union activities program is broad and varied. Tea dances are held two afternoons a week, and fall term mixers are usually centered in the Union. Visiting athletic teams are met by the Union committees. During Homecoming, class reunions, and big games the Union building has always been the center of activity. Every Michigan State student automatically becomes a member of the Union upon payment of the regular college fees. Alumni and friends of Michigan State College subscribed a large sum of money for the purpose of starting the erec tion of the Union building. The state of Michigan pur chased bonds that provided additional monies for the con struction. The Union building remained uncompleted from 1925 until the present time.

Developed over a long period of time, the tra dition s have become a well-loved and important factor which gives the College a richer background. Tradit ions are not laws and are never regarded as such. Rather, they are t ime-honored customs which have become universally accepted by the student body for many years. No one is absolutely compelled to obey these traditions, yet there are very few offenders. Every student seems to feel it his personal duty to comply with the rulings and ·as a re sult the traditions have become an intangible set of ru les compelled by no one, enforced by no one, yet obeyed by a ll. The mor e important of the traditional customs follow: 1. No one smokes on the campus, except in the Union Bu:lding. 2. Everyone does his part to foster the congenial, demo cratic spirit of Michigan State. Whether he knows the person, a student greets each passerby on the campus. 3. All freshman men wear the traditional green "pots" at all times except Sundays. This distinguishes them as newcomers to the campus and is r egarded as a privilege rather than a burden. 4. No one cuts across the lawns. 5. No one defaces Co ll ege property. EVENTS CLASS DAY. One of the most popular underclass events is the Freshman-Sophomore Class Day. Competing in re lay races, obstacle races, tug-of-war, and other track and fie ld events, the two classes vie for superiority. The affair is under the supervision of the Student Council.

St11;/e11t Haudbo ok 1936-37 81 Fraternities recruit their members by selecting them from the student body. It is not ethical for a student to indicate his desire to join a particular fraternity. Invitation to join originates with the organization. Each fraternity considers many men for membership. They learn all they can about each one and very carefully select the ones who seem best suited to their own group. These few are extended bids, and the student then accepts or refuses the invitation. The better fraternities are extremely careful in their work of rushing (becoming acquainted with prospective mem bers). A student who is boastful, vulgar, uncouth, or over bearing is at once dropped from the list of prospects. Good students, men with strong moral convictions, and true gentlemen are the 111en who command the attention of the fraternities. A fraternity's first impression of a freshman is very im portant. Make this first impression lasting by being alert, pleasant and natural. When the rushing period opens, with the start of college in the fall, you may be rushed or you may be overlooked . In either case, keep cool. The decision to pledge member ship to a fraternity is an important step, one which deserves mature de liberation, and the freshman who escapes the necessity of making this deci sion is not altogether unfortu nate. If you are overlooked in the early rushing, you w.ill probably have another opportunity, even if not until your sophomore year. To be a "misfit" in a fraternity is certainly a misfortune. The choice of a fraternity is a serious matter and must be faced squarely in a serious manner. Don't be misled. When tbe time comes for you to make a choice of fraternities, be wise, look at things squarely and from all sides. Don't join a group because you feel obliged to, or because you find yourself in a "sweat-box" and ar e afraid to refuse. Keep your head at all times and remember that there never was a time limit on pledging and there never will be. 82 M ic higa11 Stale College REGULATIONS Pledging rule s, as laid clown by the Interfraternity Coun cil, should be observed faithfully by all freshmen and other student . Thes e, as taken from the Council Constitution, follow: Article IX-Pledging Section 1.

Of this numb er, only 10 to 30 are invited to membership . However, Pan hellenic, the governing body of all social sororities, wishe s tha t the friendly relations established during this season may continue throughout the college career. All groups are worthy of membership, and the rushee is urged to make her selection independently. Her choice of a group should be on the basis of congeniality; that is, the (L) denotes local sorority. (N) denotes nationai sorority. 84 Michigan State College rushee should select the sorority in which she, as a member, would be most happy. She should remember, in making her choice, that the associations formed in that organization are for a period of four years or more, and therefore are of the utmost importance. Nothing is more tragic than a misfit. During the period of silence, as explained in the rules, th e rushee must cooperate in having no communications what soever with active sorority members. It is considered beneath the standards of both the local and the national Panhellenic for any woman to speak dis paragingly of any group or individual. A member of one organization who so forgets herself as to criticize any mem ber of another group, or the group as a whole, discredits herself in the eyes of all prospective, as well as active, members. The cost of joining a sorority is an important point to investigate carefully. Specific expense lists of the various sororities may be obtained at the Panhellenic Office in the Peoples Church, and young women who are accepting rush ing invitations shou ld inform themselves carefully on mat ters of expense the sororities. themselves and fairness to to in Simple afternoon dress will be appropriate for all rushing parties except the formal party. This will be indicated on the invitation. If an invited guest is unavoidably detained, she should not hesitate to telephone about her arriving at the rushing party somewhat after the appoi nt ed hour. For the last three informal parties, the rushee should accept the invitations of those groups in which she is most interested. However, the acceptance of the invitation for the last party DOES NOT indicate her choice; nor does this invitation indicate the sorority's choice of rushees. Rushing Rules Rushing rules arc printed- in full by Panhellenic and may be obtained, by anyone interested, in the Panh~1!rnii;,: Qffii;e in the Peoples Church.

INDEPENDENT MEN'S LEAGUE The Independent Men's League is a newly organized student activity at Michigan State College. It was planned and executed in the school year 1935-36, by the combined efforts of the Dean of Men and a group of non-fraternity students.
