Sayfa 40 - All belonged for the most part to the type of student who spends most of his time in his room with his books, and who, shy and lacking initiative, finds little opportunity, or has little desire, for association with his fellows. The result of my investigations convinces me that the poorest students at the University of Illinois have little to do with college activities ; they are the misfits and the hangers-on. The very best students, also, are interested in little outside of their college work,...
Sayfa 33 - So many statements have been current in recent years concerning the relative scholastic standing of fraternity men and "barbs," of athletes and "fussers," that I have thought it worth while regarding the students of the University of Illinois to make a definite investigation. The facts presented here are based upon a weighted average of the semester grades of each undergraduate student in the University covering a period of two years — 190910, and 1910-11.
Sayfa 70 - ... can tone up a boy of good mind but slovenly habits and tone down a dude and prevent him from becoming the laughing-stock of sensible people. 4. It can prevent vulgar language...
Sayfa 5 - For she gathers in great numbers from the east and from the west And her great judicial mind puts brand new theories to test; She settles world-wide questions, and her judgments never fail, For the female at convention is much wiser than the male. And when important things in her inimitable way Are settled, and she closes up the business of the day, She dances, sings, or acts a play, and sparkling words prevail. For the female at convention is more clever than the male, NB — We really don't believe...
Sayfa 76 - Unless the college fraternity improves in manners, in morals and in scholarship it is doomed, and unless the different chapters in the same college cease their petty enmities and bickerings and small politics to control unimportant so-called honors they may be swept out of existence by a rising tide of protest that all of the good things of college life shall not go to those whose social pretensions have no backing of real achievement. "The fraternity chapters have long been the victim of the evils...
Sayfa 34 - Grand average of men and women. 82.16 82.06 82.11 81.35 83.11 82.23 If it were possible, as it is not, in this brief article to go into detail in the examination of the grades of individual fraternities, and fraternity men, a number of facts would be revealed. The following table will suggest, however, how wide a range of difference there is in the scholastic averages of the various organizations : GREEK LETTER FRATERNITIES 1909-10 1910-11 1st Sem.
Sayfa 76 - Hellenist was so far beyond that of the others, that he valued himself, as I remember well, exclusively on it. The PDA Society had lost all reputation for letters and was noted only for the dissipation and conviviality of its members. Whether they had refused to admit our Hellenist, or he was unwilling to join them, I do not now recollect, but so it was that he determined to get up another society in opposition, and in conformity with his own reputation formed and adapted the Greek phrase indicated...
Sayfa 22 - Kappa Sigma Phi Delta Theta Phi Gamma Delta . . . Phi Kappa Psi Phi Kappa Sigma. . . Phi Sigma Kappa . . . Pi Kappa Alpha Psi Upsilon Sigma Alpha Epsilon Sigma Chi Sigma Nu Sigma Phi Sigma Phi Epsilon.
Sayfa 182 - ... the number of members on the athletic teams, the members in dramatics, in the glee clubs, and the chapter's ability as social leaders. After all, the foundation of a chapter's life is its scholarship. What does it amount to, if a chapter is represented in every organization in college one year — if it holds all the important offices and has entertained with the most elaborate ball, if the next semester finds only half of its members on the university rolls with clean records?
Sayfa 341 - There are, of course, communities in which the unwritten rule does not obtain, but in the circles where fashion lives, moves and has its being this is undeniably true. Prove it by counting how 'many mature, successful business men of your acquaintance wear the pin regularly. Again, the pin, fastened to an obscure part of its owner's vest, serves poorly as a medium of identification, and the gaily colored hatband has of recent years usurped this obvious and important function of the pin. As a positive...
