made the an
nouncement of the enforcement
of strict formal rush following a
recommendation from representative officers and members of the
rush committee of last year.
For the past lour years, only the
Initial fall rush programs have
been formal. This rush week was
followed ty optional informal rush
sessions, usually held during the
latter part of October and during
the first two weeks of the second
semester.
The IFC itself has made no ruling outlawing informal rush.
Regulations cf the IFC uotline
the procedure for formal rush, but
they do not provide for informal
rush periods. However, since the
inauguration of the formal rush
system in the fall of 1952, the IFC
has maintained one or more informal rush sessions each year.
JFormal rush requires all rushees
to register and also provides for
the calendar dates and length of
time ru.'hees may visit fraternities.
Informal rush is regulated by only
broad, general rules.
