Four Pi Sigma Kappa members decorate the PUCC Christmas tree in the lower lounge. » In the midst of Purdue Calu- met’s large male majority, Pi Sig- ma Kappa functions as the only all-female club at Purdue Calumet. The club operates as an organiza- tion providing such services as a tea for incoming freshmen, dec- orating the lounge for Christmas, and ushering for the Buskin’s per- formances. Also, and of extra im- portance, they supply and finance our peppy and vigorous cheerlead- ers who keep alive spirit and en- thusiasm for our athletic teams at noon pep rallies and at the sports events. One of the typical Pi Sigma Kappa business meetings. Operating as a sorority, Pi Sigma Kappa allows the girls to talk over their special problems with under- standing friends. The girls constant- ly find themselves helping others, a duty which all of them enjoy.
