THE SIXTY-SECOND CONVENTION. Four times has our Fraternity held its General Conven tion under the auspices of the Psi Chapter. In 1851, the delegates of all the chapters, having assembled at Clinton, admitted to full fellowship the new charge which had been organized at Harvard College in November, 1850. Again, in 1864, the Psi extended hospitality to the representatives of the which in Society. Twelve years later a third convention, of a new era in Psi many respects was the beginning Upsilon, the was held at Hamilton College. By that convention peti tion for the establishment of a chapter in Cornell University was submitted to the branches ,of our Order with the very distinct understanding that the long postponed charter should be granted. Many graduates recall the convention of 1876 as one of the most delightful of Psi Upsilon gatherings. Since the completion of its chapter house the Psi has been preparing to entertain the delegates of the other chapters; and thi.s year, the fifty-second of its long and prosperous life, its turn came once more. For some months prior to the day appointed for opening the convention, graduates and under graduates harmoniously worked together in making the pre liminary arrangements. Wednesday morning. May 8, the delegates began to arrive, and on the evening of that day an informal meeting took place in the chapter house, which spacious edifice has been refurnished and greatly improved throughout. The busi ness sessions began Thursday morning at nine o'clock in the Stone Church at Clinton. Two members of the Executive Council, and delegates from all of the nineteen active chapters, together with alumni of the two chapters whose functions are at present suspended, weire in attendance. The morning ses sion was opened by Brother Herbert L. Bridgman (Gamma '66), of the Executive Council, and continued until noon. At one o'clock business was resumed. It had been intended that a grand ball should be given for the delegates by the Psi Chapter at the Butterfield, in THE SIXTY-SECOND CONVENTION. 39 Utica, Thursday evening; but because of the sudden and lamented death of Brother the Hon. John WiUiam O'Brieu (Psi '73), of Auburn, upon whom had rested much of the responsibility of the arrangements for the convention, this festival was and in abandoned its place was substituted a at the which was reception chapter house, attended by many members. The evening was spent in singing, speaking, and comparing notes, and though entirely informal in its nature the gathering was very enjoyable. at ten Friday morning o'clock the delegates assembled�as before, in the old Stone Church�for the final business session^ Prior to the beginning of work, however. President Stryker, of Hamilton College, who was present in response to an invitation extended by the convention, was introduced, and addressed the He Society. congratulated the delegates present upon being enabled to visit Clinton at such a pleasant time, the pleasantest season of the year, and expressed his gratification at being able to attend the convention, if even but for a short period, and extend to the delegates a hearty welcome from Hamilton College. Dr. Stryker spoke briefly of the benefits to be derived by secret fraternities, speaking as a member of one hirn self, saying that the ties formed by membership in such an organization would never die, but remain firm until death. In concluding his excellent and interesting remarks, Dr. Stryker paid a fitting tribute to the memory of the late Hon. John W. O'Brien, who was an ardent and ever enthu siastic member of Psi Upsilon. At the conclusion of his remarks Dr. Stryker was heartily applauded. At noon the delegates repaired to the chapter house, where a photograph of them was taken. At half after two in the evening public literary exercises were held in the Stone Church. Bergner's orchestra, of Utica was seated in the galleries. The Rev. Cbarles Tyler Olmsted, S. T. D. (Beta Beta '65), Rector of Grace Church, Utica, presided over the exercises. Prayer was offered by the Rev. Edward Henry Dickinson (Gamma '79), of Seneca Falls. In opening the exercises Brother Olrrlsted in behalf of the con- 40 THE PSI UPSILON REVIEW. vention, and especially on the part of the Psi Chapter, expressed gratification at the goodly number in attendance. He then introduced the Rev. Edward Newman Packard (Kappa '62), as the orator of the day. Brother Packard's oration has been published by the Psi (Chapter, and for that reason will not be reprinted here, except in its opening lines: "Brothers in Psi Upsilon: The magic name summons us again! It came before our Freshman fancies with a dreamlike charm and mystery, when we knew what it covered only by guesses ' ' and by the sober and unadorned stories of those who rushed us. It took new shape on the evening of our initiation, when trembling anxieties were We see the men that surrounded turned into joy. , us' then. They will always be just as old as they were on that night. With the passing days of college life the name grew to larger proportions, and today, no matter how many years of duty and strain have passed over our heads, it stands for pure and exalted friendship. Not what we learned, but whom we loved� that is college in the retrospect We are here, brothers, to keep our friendships in repair, for nothing can ever, be quite like them.

It was the custom then for students at William and Mary, the second oldest college in America, to gather in the Apollo Room of the Raleigh Tavern in Williamsburg, Virginia, to discuss the affairs of the day. On the night of December 5, 1776, five close companions stayed after the others had left and founded Phi Beta Kappa. A secret motto, grip, and ritual were subsequently adopted. The Fraternity had to be secret because the William and Mary faculty didn’t approve of its students discussing social issues and possibly straying too far from accepted beliefs. Therefore, the members developed secret signals of challenge and recognition. The concept of a secret grip, motto, ritual, a distinctive badge, code of laws and the use of Greek letters by Phi Beta Kappa were adopted by subsequent fraternities. Fraternity, Morality, and Literature were the principles symbolized by the stars on the silver medal adopted as the insignia of Phi Beta Kappa membership. The society prospered, and three years later expansion began. Chapters were established at Yale, Harvard, Dartmouth and numerous other campuses. As Phi Beta Kappa developed, it evolved into a purely honorary society. For this reason, as other fraternities were founded, they were not considered competitors.

Having occasion to make inquiries in regard to one of these organizations, he was surprised to learn that there was no general repository of facts in regard to them, that few of their members knew more than the names of those with which they had come into contact, and that the majority were ignorant alike, of the origin, principles, history, and customs of any of the fraternities, oftentimes their own included. This lack of knowledge has arisen not from the desire to know nothing of other organizations, nor from indifference to the affairs of their neighbors, but from the fact that information of this kind had never been brought together in a convenient shape. An endeavor has been made to make this book a vehicle of such information. In seeking material the author has in general met with the hearty co-operation of the fraternities themselves, and with few exceptions all facilities have been placed at his disposal. Nothing is here given to the public that an intelligent observer could not ascertain, and no attempt has been made to lay bare any of the so-called secrets of the college societies.

  • SORC) August 2019
    Report of the Student Organization Review Committee (SORC) August 2019 Description The Student Organization Review Committee (SORC) was created by a subcommittee of the Charter Committee for Building Social Community at Trinity College and was first convened in December 2013. SORC is composed of two students, two faculty members, and one staff member. The committee currently meets twice per semester. The purpose of this report is to describe the work of SORC during the 2018-2019 academic year. This document will describe the annual review process, provide an update on the work of the Committee and conclude with recommendations regarding the work of SORC. Purpose SORC annually reviews selective social organizations to assess progress toward compliance with the standards set by the Charter Committee’s subcommittee. Selective social organizations are defined as all social organizations with a dedicated facility (regardless of ownership), selective membership, and/or initiation process. These include Greek Letter Organizations, theme houses, and cultural houses. SORC is not a disciplinary body. Rather, the committee determines whether an organization has met the standards set by the College. The committee also provides constructive feedback to each organization with suggestions for improvement during the next review period. Reporting Process For the annual review, each organization is provided a form or “report” with the following prompts: What is the event or accomplishment through which your organization contributed most to the campus or broader community? Please connect your organization’s values to the new mission statement of the college. Engage. Connect. Transform. As the preeminent liberal arts college in an urban setting, Trinity College prepares students to be bold, independent thinkers who lead transformative lives.

  • Psi Upsilon Pledge Manual
    PSI U. DOXOLOGY O God, Thy blessing now shed down Upon our loved Psi Upsilon; May all her ties of Friendship be Strengthened and honored, Lord, by Thee. PLEDGE MANUAL of the PSI UPSILON FRATERNITY Name Address Chapter and Class HISTORICAL NOTES Psi Upsilon Fraternity was founded at Union College, Schenectady, New York, on November 24, 1833. On that date seven men, four juniors and three sophomores, met and signed the formal pledge to organize a secret society. The fact that the Fraternity was organized was first kept secret. In 1834, twelve additional members from the Classes of 1836 and 1837 were initiated. Pins were first worn publicly in June, 1834. The local chapter name, Theta, was not assumed until 1838, by which time the Fraternity had embarked upon its policy of con servative expansion. The first constitution of the Fraternity was adopted on January 10, 1834, and this document is now in the archives of the Executive Council. At the present time there are twenty-eight active chapters of Psi Upsilon � twenty-five in the United States and three in Canada. Expan sion in the United States has continued to be governed by a conservative policy. Only five new chapters have been installed in this country since the turn of the century.
