Theta Chi Fraternity and others joined for
traditional football tailgating activities on Duck Pond Field Saturday
before the Family Day game. |
Fraternity parties
will no longer be open parties, said Dino DiBernardi, the director
of the Center for Student Involvement and Leadership (CSIL).
A rule that has always been a national rule for
fraternities is now going to be strictly enforced mainly for safety
reasons, said DiBernardi.
There will now be a 2:1 ratio at fraternity parties,
which means each brother will only be allowed to invite two guests.

any 1960s sci-fi flick about the world of the future,
you will notice recurring themes such as flying cars, video phones
and written messages transmitted in a matter of seconds. Visions
like these paved the way for e-mail to be the wave of the
future.
