Earl Ball has served as head of school at Penn Charter for 31 years. In 1977, when he first started, the board was considering making the school coeducational. They asked Ball if he would leave if the decision was made to remain a boys' school. Ball responded that he supported the school's mission over his personal views. After a two-year study, the board voted to make Penn Charter coed in 1980. Ball is pleased that surveys now show alumni from both genders feel positively about their experience. Ball believes leadership should be a shared experience for both men and women.

ESPN Senior Editor Speaks to Southeast StudentsAndrea Gils
Keith Reed, senior editor at ESPN, spoke at Southeast Missouri State University about diversity in journalism. He discussed the importance of having a diverse staff and reporting on issues impacting all groups. Reed encouraged students to take advantage of resources at Southeast to gain experience and an edge over competitors. Students were inspired by Reed's message and career path coming from a smaller Midwest school. The Arrow student newspaper is accepting applications for various editor and manager positions for the upcoming school year.
The Greek organizations at Southeast Missouri State University have reinstated judicial boards for self-governance. Members of each Greek organization will serve on the boards to handle violations of recruitment, membership, or organizational rules. The aim is for Greeks to self-govern minor infractions, while major violations like hazing would still be sent to the Office of Student Conduct. The new boards will provide peer punishment that is meant to be educational rather than punitive toward the organizations.

SEMO exploring the option of adding sororityAndrea Gils
Southeast Missouri State University is exploring the possibility of adding a new sorority to campus as five of the six existing sororities are over their membership limits. The process of adding a new sorority would be formal and take time, involving forming an interest committee, analyzing recruitment numbers, and making a recommendation to the Panhellenic Council. While some worry a new sorority could take members from existing ones, university officials think having more options could benefit students and help "equalize" sorority sizes on campus.
