PANHELLENIC COUNCIL: FRONT ROW: Pam Dixon, Paula Watson. BACK ROW: Gail Hollenshead, Betsy Schlander, Nancy Roquemore. 180 "Change" was the theme of the Interfraternity Council last year. Under the direction of Bill Bivin, president, the IFC initially approved a new constitution allowing fraternities more freedom in regulating their affairs. The IFC also did a comprehensive public relations study under the direction of the student-sponsored Cullen Agency. Dave Ami- don served as Greek Week chairman and Lee Stepleton conducted the first Cougar Carnival, an IFC inspired and financially backed campus-wide activity. Also, Dave Kohler completely revamped the Greek Housing Code. A dance on campus sponsored by IFC benefited the Cancer Society. They also assisted in the March of Dimes and started a Softball league for children. Other officers for the past year were: Reggie Hirsch, vice president; Steve Porter, chief justice; Jay Ginsberg, secretary; and Les Keaton, treasurer. The work accomplished by these men attributed to the success of the "1969 IFC Revolution," where the accent was on individual house responsibility and to the entire Greek system. Bill Bivin presides over IFC Convocation held in the fall. Left: Reggie Hirsch, vice- president and Bivin, president, conduct meeting. 181 |
