Colgate University yesterday became another Eastern college which has abolished racial and religious discrimination in fraternity membership.
In a student referendum held this week, the college voted 748 to 331 for a rule requiring campus social organizations to eliminate all discriminatory restrictions by 1964. At that time, clubs not complying with the rule will lose their rushing privileges and representation in the student senate.
Another college recently deciding to end its fraternity discrimination was Dartmouth, whose student body voted last March to end social club membership bias by 1960.
