Winter, economy increases
need for charity drives

By Jennifer Hilinski

NmQKYKEMfl COM

With cold weather here to stay. organiza—
trons around Lexington are looking for
\varmer clothes to give to needy people.
While individuals may be concerned Will]
their own financial well-being. charity organ-
i/ations are looking to donation drives and
the holiday spirit to help collect items.

The Salvation Army in Lexrngton has es.
perienced a minor drop in donations this sea
son. btit not as much as expected. said Sal\ ar
tron Anny irranager Holly Barley.

"(‘orrrpared to last year. we have expert»
errced a little change." she said. “A lot of
people have been kind enough to donate. but
I have noticed a little bit of a drop."

Donations by organizations ha\e not
slowed down. but individual gifts have suf-
fered slightly. Bailey said, '

“Not as many people aside from organi‘
lations have made as many donations com-
pared to previous years. but people are still
being generous." she said.

Bailey said the Salvation Army doesn‘t
have records to compare the amount of dona-
tions to last year but said they are in dire
need of warm clothes with the weather tum-
ing colder earlier this year.

"We both thought it would be a great
idea to rtrri a grassroots donation campaign

of the poverty faced by people in that area."
Kim said. “Most students have no idea of the
level of economic and health disparity that

The Infamously lighthearted rap—

per/producer Kanye West has been

promising for riioriths that he was going
to reveal a whole

different side to his
music as well as his

personality. and
West certainly
meant business.

Along with a change in depth has

come a change In style. All ot the songs
are heavy In 808 bass loops. and West

Greek recruitment the week
after Centre Term. a three-
week term in January. Stu—
dents must be irt at least their
second semester to be eligi-
ble for recruitment.

Allowing students to de-
velop relationships before
joining a sorority is a benefit
of later recruitment. said
Emily Perrin. vice president
of recruitment for Centre‘s
Panhellenic Council.

"You have the opportuni—
ty' to get to know people oit

campus. so when you walk
into those houses (during re‘
cruitment) you see women
you know." Perrin said.
“Choosing a sorority isn‘t a
gut decision based on the few
nights you spend in that
house; it‘s based on the
women you know."

By allowing students to
finish one semester before
they join a sorority. Perrin
said current members can
look at that student's grade

If they are ready for the

“When you enter (ireek

"We can make sIIIe they are

Vanderbilt University and
DePauw Uniyersity both

their Greek systems. but West
said delaying recruitment
means delaying the pledging
period. which provides many
new students oppoitumties to.

“Being able to your a
sorority early gives the new
students Iitstant connections
which help with their adjust—
ment to college." she said. "It
makes sense to have the \ alti—
able connections as soon as

possible before the stress of

classes begins.”

Some sorority members
thought connections could be
made ItIst as easily m the
spring. (‘hristrna (‘rIollo. a

"I think changing l‘Ct‘ltlll'

she said.

Fraternities at [K hold

because the recruitment
process is a lot less formal
for (ireck men. West said.

Once the team made suggestions. he

"It was starting to be a little coir
splcttous that we were not on that
list." Shay said. "The university de-
serves more. and we are demanding

more front faculty and students."

Some students think the accredr

Withers said It does matter In

"There are objective standards
and this is showing you are meeting
those standards." he said.

Angie Shay said Withers always
