INTER FRATORITY COUNCIL While awaiting full recognition for its componentorganizations, the Inter-Fralority Council has been instrumental in solidifying the role of fraternities and soro¬ rities on campus. Under the lead¬ ership of Howard Rubin the group has worked to establish a well-balanced program for its member units. During the past year, the IFC has made great strides toward achieving the rec¬ ognition of fraternities and soro¬ rities on campus. Its efforts were climaxed this May when, after nearly six months of investigation and de¬ bate, the Committee on Student Affairs agreed to recognize local fraternities and sororities on campus providing they present suitable constitutions to CSA. In the process, a referendum was held and of the 2,596 students who voted, recognition was sup¬ ported by a 5 to 1 margin.
