FRATERNITY H O U S E PLANS (22) The following resolution: Whereas some misunderstanding has arisen concerning the recommendation of the Council of Administration, presented December 15, 1922, regarding the building of fraternity and sorority houses, the Council suggests that, in order to remove this misunderstanding, the following resolution be substituted: "Inasmuch as all interested in the University—alumni, faculty, students, and other friends—desire to keep the University of Illinois an institution for the people in every sense of the term, and especially in the sense that the cost of living shall be kept, as far as is possible for the University to influence it, low enough to keep attendance at the University, with all opportunities and privileges of student life, open as far as possible to all, irrespective of wealth, the Council of Administration, with the approval of the Board of Trustees, urges the desirability of keeping this thought in mind in the erection of fraternity, sorority, and similar houses for the accommodation of students. The Council suggests, therefore, that plans for such houses be submitted for its approval so far as concerns the arrangements for proper living and study conditions." O n m o t i o n of M r . Trees, this resolution w a s adopted a n d substituted for the action of D e c e m b e r 15, 1922.
