Show 170 STUDENT LIFE now organized with a determination to down the fraternities of this school that frats have run things long enough The Pi Zets are especially made an object of reproach True the members of this fraternity occupy almost every important office held by students in this school but who put them there? Some of the leaders of the anti-fra- t men nominated them and the student body as a whole elected them What are they to do? Refuse to accept? We are all working more or less for our own benefit If a position here were offered you would you accept it? It is rumored that the Pi Zets “railroaded’ the Student Body officers into office Who were the “railroaders’ Pi Zets? If you will stop to think who did the nominating you will find they had little to do with it Who did then? Some were members of the frats some were non-frmen and some few were “knockers” who wanted to join at this particular frat and thought by putting its members into office they could gain favor with them Because they were not recognized in the way they wished they got “sore” and immediately began knocking the frats These men are now leading the “anti frat” faction What kind of students are they? They are not students they are skulking “grafters” who losing favor with the frats have through dishonest tales gained favor with the opposition Because the frats knew them for what they really are the members did not care to associate with them It is an opportune time for the anti-fra- t men to think what they are doing When a fraternity becomes obnoxious in the school it is time for it to die but when most of the best men in school are “frat men” and are all working for the interests of the If you college they should live don’t like frat men don’t put them into office It seems as though you still elect them Who was elected captain of the track team? A frat man Who s captain elect of the foot ball team? A frat man Whom did the Agricultural Club ask to draw up its constitution? Three frat men It seems then that they are essential If they they are not shut them out If they are don't knock ELECTIONS In the elections carried on in this school there should be more broadmindedness There is too much feeling both good and bad towards the different candidates Of course it is well to have competition for the different offices but let it be friendly Remember that this is our school and we are all working to make it better Let us work as |
