Ihanover, N.. 1., D~ec. 12.-Complete
elimination of freshman rushing at
'DIartmouth college has been efcithled
iii a ruling by the ad1ministrative
board of the college,, which, beginning
with the close of the present aca-
demiiic year, will permit the pledging
only of students whose standing on
the campus is in the sophomore or
higher classes.
4Opinion on the camp~us is reflected
n ja general canvass of fraternities
S'llowinig announcement of the boar d's
action, in which the approval of the
Shouses was unanimous. Faculty inem-
,,. i j~rs were also unanimous in 'corn-
m iending the action of the admin istr a-
tive board, while their statements in
general anticipated favorable re;ults.
from the new ruling.
Notice of the revision of the college
h,~ushing rules was presented to the
iterfraternity council through a. let-
Ster from Tres. E. MV. H-opkins. Ex-I
c . erpts from the communication fol-
low:
The interpolations of fraternity in-
terests into the freshman year at'
Dartmouth is a maladjustment. Its,
processes are harmful to the class,j
demeaning to the fraternities, and
injurious to the morale of the college
. .. ...The original impact and the.
continued pressure of the system an-
nually creates discomfort for many
and misfortune from sonme among
those most sought by the fraternities.
