Four Sororities Fold at Middlebury Over Bias Disinterest
Four national sororities Delta Delta Delta Kappa Kappa Gamma Pi Beta Phi and Sigma Kappa disbanded at Middlebury College citing student disinterest and alleged discriminatory selection procedures. The move follows a 1968 Negro coed race based denial and a January warning to remove blackball practices and exclusive religious rituals. Panhellenic president Jill Woodman noted attempts to reform within national rules were blocked and hopes arise for new social clubs to sustain philanthropy.

Brattleboro Manager Praised for Community Planning
Brattleboro Town Manager Corwin Elwell spoke at the Unitarian Fellowship on the town manager system, urging Bennington voters to elect selectmen who support it. He argued managers provide informed planning, better services for money spent, and a path toward eventual consolidation of town and village governments to handle growth and infrastructure. He noted several Vermont towns use or trial the system and emphasized planning ahead, six years or more, to avoid sudden funding shocks.
