Newman PHI DELTA RHO Phi Delta Rho, Roosevelt’s sole social sorority, en- deavors to develop school spirit among its members and to provide them with opportunities to share good times together. The girls work in conjunction with other organizations here at RU to promote social life and rah-rah spirit among the students. Fall semester events included a dinner dance, Hallo- ween party, card party, and pajama party. In addition to providing good times, the program of social events enables the sorority to raise funds for the American Cancer Society, of which it is an affiliate. Through their Queen for a Night dance, highlight of the sorority’s social year, the girls hope to donate several hundred dollars to combat the dread disease. Phi Delta Rho's first undertaking this fall was a huge membership drive. For the first time in its history, the sorority opened its doors to all university girls interested in joining. A Rush Tea was held enabling all potential mem- bers to get together and meet one another. An outstanding achievement of the sorority last semester was its work on the scholarship bazaar. Through the combined efforts of all the girls on the book booth, the sorority raised more than 8330. for scholarships. Page 73
