More Co-ed Codes

In 1940-1941's version of the "Co-Ed Codes", the theme of the book was a menu style. 

This Co-Ed Code gave the students "never-fail recipes for happy college days"

Within these "recipes" were:

"Dietary Advice" which was actually more about your attitude towards your fellow students, rather than your actual diet.

"Measuring Hints" contained fashion advice for women, including suggestions for dress, hat, shoes, bag, gloves, and coat for various activies ranging from school formals to football games. This told you what to wear and what not to wear.

"Desserts" contained suggestions about proper interactions with men students. These suggestions were letting Oregon State women know what the men were looking for in an "ideal co-ed."

A. Snobiphobia: Neglecting the "hello" tradition. Overlooking classmates, smiling only at 'shots' who can give you a boost.

B. Borrowoctomy: Believing what is your roomies's is yours. Cribbing themes and lab experiments. Borrowing trouble by never repaying.

C. Rude-icosis: Disregarding small courtesies. Discounting your roomie's rights. Not considering others first.

D. Dramatosis: Pullin on an act--using a line. Being sweet to the men--sullen to the girls. Cheering for one alone--yourself.

E. Telephoneitis: Visiting on the phone over 3 minutes. Violently yelling for the girl wanted on phone. Inventing excuses to phone a man.

G. Gossiptibia: Garnishing and passing choice rumors. Giving out with secrets. Reciting vicious bits of "he said" and "she said."
