Pharmacists Nearly 'Over the Top'
Look Magazine Story
Says Sororities Have
Own Quota Systems
NEW YORK, (JTA)—College
sororities are undemocratic and
racially d iscriminatory and
should be abolished, according
to an article in the current is-
sue of Look Magazine which ac-
cuses the sororities of being anti-
Jewish.
The article, by Rosanne Smith
Robinson, a 1943 graduate of
Northwestern University,
charges that sororities restrict
admission of Catholics 10 per-
cent and says Jewish girls can-
not be pledged unless they are
exceptional.
"One of the first things I
learned," Mrs. Robinson report-
ed, "as others have before or
since, was that no more than 10
percent of the pledges could be
Catholic and that Jewish girls
could not be pledged by Gentile
sororities unless, of course, they
were exceptionally beautiful, tal-
ented or rich—and didn't look
Jewish.
"And there were Jewish girls
who were willing to turn their
backs on their ancient heritage
in . order to gain membership in
a non-Jewish sorority. Despite
efforts to keep the secret within
the fold, these girls were soon
being referred to around the
house as the 'Jewish Pi Phi' or
or the 'Jewish Tri Delt."
Mrs. Robinson reported that
she herself had been accused of
"treachery" because she had
dated a Jewish boy.
