Contempory Literature'
Scholars of literature sometimes seem to neglect their con
temporaries as they devote much time and study to interpreting the
works of the old masters for various literary publications.
Realizing the lack of material
published about contemporary
works, several members of the
English department at West
Georgia College have begun the
publication of a scholarly
periodical devoted solely to
literary works published since
1940.
Edited by Dr. Benjamin
Griffith, head of West Georgia's
English Department, and Dr.
William S. Doxey, associate
professor of English, Notes on
Contemporary Literature con

throughout the world on recent
works.

Phi Mu Sets
August 4-6
For 'Weekend
This weekend (August 4,5, and
6) will be “sisterhood weekend”
for the Gamma Rho Chapter of
Phi Mu Sorority at West Georgia
College. All of the active and
alumni members have been
invited to participate in this
weekend of “sharing and
renewing the fellowship of the
group,” according to Elaine
Brock, rush co-chairman for the
local chapter.
Much of the discussions during
the sorority’s weekend workshop
will be concerned with “rush”
activities, scheduled for all
sororities on January 10-14, 1973.
Sororities have one rush for the
entire year, under rules adopted
by the Panhellenic Council, and it
occurs shortly after the begin
ning of winer quarter. Frater
nities, on the other hand, hold
rush activities each quarter.
PresenUy, Phi Mu has over 60
members in the local chapter.
This number will decrease “to
only about 45 sisters,” according
to Miss Brock, after summer and
fall graduations.
