Deaf ears

Last night six senior women participated in a panel discussion on the Greek system, a valuable exercise in improving the sorority system.

The women shared their personal experiences with audience members, but those women who would have benefited most from the speakers were, for the most part, not there.

The audience was made up mostly of other senior women, who were eager to discuss their own impressions of the system and answer questions they had about the system while participating in it.

But on the eve of the first day of sorority rush, the number of '96 women in theaudience was conspicuously low.

The number of audience members and their eager questions after the event show the value of students advising each other about the benefits and pitfalls of the sorority system. Those who care about the strength of the sorority system should continue to reach out to younger women who can learn from their advice.
