After considerable discus- sion a motion by Trustees Snell and Mandigo was carried permitting this club to hold one dance only in the Collegiate Hall. It was pointed out by Trustee. Jeffrey that should this club be allowed such a privilege that other requests would undoubtedly be presented to the Board. While the action of the Board in their decision will undoubtedly meet with general approval this newly organized club would not have brought any discredit to the sacred precints of our institu- tion of learning.
