CLUB AGREEMENT INTERPRETED

Owing to an ambiguous phrase in the club agreement it has been a matter of doubt whether the first day on which a Sophomore could be elected to a club was Monday, October 16, or Monday, October 23. The Graduate Advisory Committee on the club agreement has ruled that the date of election shall be Monday, October 23. The agreement permits the election of Sophomores the fourth Monday of the College year, which has been interpreted by the Graduate Committee to mean the fourth Monday of College work. The wording of the phrase in question is as follows:

"No club shall elect as a member any undergraduate before the fourth Monday after the opening of College in his Sophomore year, or before that time pledge or promise election, even by implication, to such undergraduates."
