Fraternity/sorority spring rush David McCaskill News Writer The Spring 1992 semester is now in progress and with it comes a wide spectrum of athletic, scholastic, and social organizations in which students can participate. Social organizations, such as fraternities, and sororities will be sponsoring RUSH events throughout this week for those students who are interested in becoming a part of the Greek life at Western. The requirements for Rush include a 2.00 G.P.A. for fraternities and a 2.25 G.P.A. for sororities and that you are at least a second semester freshman. "I expect a good turnout this year and so far all the Greek organizations have adhered to the agreed upon policy of "DRY RUSH," said Mark Ellison Inter Fraternity Council (IFC) Rush Chairman. For women, there are 3 sororities: Delta Zeta, Phi Mu, Alpha Chi Omega, and 2 fraternities: Zeta Tau Alpha and Alpha Xi Delta. Sigma Kappa sorority is no longer available for rushing. This sorority lost its charter last semester due to hazing and is no longer recognized on this campus. If you meet the requirements for fraternity rush, there are a number of options available to you. There are approximately 16 fraternities on campus, 12of which are recognized by the IFC and include: Delta Chi, Delta Sigma Phi, Kappa Alpha, Lambda Chi Alpha, Pi Kappa Alpha, Pi Kappa Phi, Pi Lambda Phi, Sigma Chi, Sigma Nu, Sigma Phi Epsilon Tau Kappa Epsilon and Theta Xi.
