Sound just a bit too scholarly, even for TU? Well, it isn't. Not when you consider that one-third of the student population at TU is active in Greek societies. Perhaps Plato wasn't thinking of fraternities when he conceived the idea of his republic, but then again, most students aren't looking for Utopia either. My immediate concerns were to make friends and 12 Rushed meet people. Now that I've been in it for a while, I've gotten more than that out of it, says Val Wilson. What better time to discover which house suits your particular need than during formal rush? For guys this isn't as much of an ordeal. During fraternity rush, guys are allowed to leave campus, go shopping, or even phone home if they so desire. Each day they at- tend a series of walk through par- ties at the different fraternities, and then, basing their decisions on the guys they've met and stories they've heard, these men decide which house is right for them. Anyone seeking proof of chau- vinism need search no further. Fe- male rushees check into their rooms in Lottie on Saturday of Rush Week, not realizing that as they quickly usher their adoring family members out the door, that brief goodbye, Mom, goodbye, Dad, I love you, too, will be their last contact with security for a week. From then they are literally rushed with campus, rush and so- cial activities. And, incidentally, somewhere in all this hectic frenzy, rushees are expected to find the house that's right for them. But, believe it or not, rush is not the only aspect of Greek life. Every year Greeks participate in a series of activities, including dances, philanthropies, Monday night din- ners, and meetings, etc. continually striving to improve themselves.

Look Bakery Allen Chapman Student Ac. tivity Center, TU's newest at- traction, is in tune with the needs of the student body, of- fering a variety of sweets to please any palate. Between classes, students congregate there to indulge study habits, social habits and sweet tooth habits. Says Maria Guihn, Since I moved off campus, I spend all my time between classes in ACAC eating and do- ing homework. The bakery, an already tried and true success, offered a wide selection of reasonably priced goodies. The TCBY frozen yo- gurt cart, new to the campus, was always filled with many fla- vors for students to enjoy. Rice crispy treats are by far the favorite in the bakery, says assistant director of Allen Chapman Activities Center, Boyd jones. The runner-up would have to be the MRM cookies. ACAC personnel understand students often suffer from a sweet tooth attack. 'Tm stuck in here every Thursday afternoon doing Ma- cIntosh demonstrations, says student Greg Peters, I can al- ways sneak off to the bakery for a few minutes and get a cookie to help me get through the afternoon. Through its various services, ACAC always was there to see this need satished. The students who gathered there to talk or study were usually seen munch- ing something good.
