Now about fraternity life at the
University. The day of the frater-
nity man in quotes has been past
here for several years. If you have
ideas of wild parties every night car-
ried far into the wee hours, complete
disregard for study because you'll
always have a brother who has taken
the course and can pull you through,
beer flowing from the drinking taps
and cases of "real stuff" filling the
attic, don't pledge a fraternity.
Fraternity Advantages
You will find that a fraternity
man at Michigan is no longer the
tcpic of discussion at the corner
drugstore back home. Generally, he
is a pretty rational fellow, who joired
a house because he liked the men in
it and found that living in a fra-
ternity house offered many advan-
tages that independents don't ordi-
narily receive including social func-
tions, a steady and sure place to eat,
and the companionship of other
good men.

But Still Fraternities
But--and this is a very large but-
don't get the idea that fraternities
on campus have deteriorated into
supper clubs, or dormitories with ini-
tiation fees. Not in the least. The
fraternities here still represent some
thing different than living independ-
ently.
There is still a very definite "fresh-
man education" program for pledges,
and there are still the secrets and
rituals withheld from the uninitiated.
Fraternities have not lost their color
by any means, they have merely
brightened them up a little.
Student "CGo-Ops
Are Examples
Of Democracy
,11 Campus Cooperatives
Provide Self-Governing
HousingGroups
Famed throughout the United
States as prime examples of democ-
racy in action, the campus coopera-
tive residence houses at the Univer-
sity of Michigan will enter their
tenth anniversary year this semester.
In the depths of the worst depres-
sion in the nation's history, the pres-
ent-day Michigan Cooperative House
was founded in 1932 with a rooming
and eating cost of two dollars per
week. From this beginning other
co-ops sprung up and the campus
cooperative movement has mush-
roomed out until this semester there
will be 11 cooperative houses on
campus, eight for men and three
for women.
Democratic Society
Inexpensive as the cooperatives
are for living and boarding, their
chief appeal lies not in economy, but
in democracy. Each member of the
cooperative shares in the expense,
the labor, the government and the
profits of the organization. Race.
religion, political faith of the appli-
cant are not asked, nor are they
important., Students of all back-

grounds and from all environments
mingle in a completely democratic
society.
Each member has one vote in the
governing of the house.
Prices for room and board in the
co-ops vary from two to six dollars
per week. Boarders are taken into
cooperatives as full members and
they are expected to do the same
amodnt of work (four to six hours per
week as are the roomers. The board-
ers, however, pay only for food; not
for room.
Inter-Cooperative Council
There. is cooperation among the
cooperatives, the InterCooperative
Council, a representative body, being
the liason agent. All applicants for
membership in the co-ops are inter-
viewed by the InterCooperative
Council and apportioned to the vari-
tus houses according to desires of
the applicant and the vacancies ex-
isting. '
There are still several vacancies in

University Services, the University of
Michigan Architectural Clinic serves
a twofold purpose by giving actual
experience to incividual student
architects and contributing limited
architectural service to those erect-t
ing small buildings for their own use.
according to Prof. George B. Brig-
ham, Jr., director of the Clinic.
One of two of its kind in the coun-
try, the other being at the Pratt In-
stitue of Fine and Applied Arts,
Brooklyn, New York, the Clinic serves
a purpose in its field similar to the
purposes of student dental and med-
ical clinics in those professions.'
Students Do The Work
Anyone desiring to construct a
small building for himself can come
to the Clinic for assistance, Profes-
sor Brigham explained. The only

T'o Double Last Year's
Between 60 and 65 students, near-
ly double last year's enrollment, are
expected to enter the freshman class
of the School of Dentisry this year,
Dean Russell W. Bunting of thej
dental school has announced.
Enrollment in other classes will
not be materially affected by selec-
tive service, Dean Bunting asserted,
a keen shortage of dentists available
for both civilian and military work
having resulted in the request by
military authorities for deferment of
all student dentists showing promise
of success.
Scholastic requirements for ad-
mission to the dental school are atI
least two years of academic work in
an approved college or university, in-
cluding a certain amount of work in
English composition, chemistry, bio-
logy and physics. Ordinarily an av-
erage of 2.25 is necessary for admis-
sion, but in exceptional cases stu-
dents with a lower scholastic aver-
age are admitted on probation.
Dean Bunting urged prespective
dental students to devote more than
the required 60 hours to preprofes-
sional training, in order to obtain
a well-balanced and broadly cultur-
al preparation for the professional
curriculum.
