SECRET noClETIE* AT OMAHH
The Trustee* of the University of
Georgia are endeavoring to break up •*-
cret societies at tha college. We most
believe thU action is taken through a
mUtaken Idee of the objeot* and motive*
of these organizations. It U stated that
the Trustee* at their late meeting passed
a resolution requiring that when a stu
dent matriculates ha shall agrs* not to
attend any secret elnb meeting dnring
his atay in oollege. These secret clubs
are connected with every leading oollego
in the land. They number among their
member* a very large proportion of the
representative leaden in this country
who are proud to attend their re-unions.
We are told that Bev. Dr. Lipsoomb is
an honorary member of the 8. A. E., and
has attended more than one meeting.
We know other profeeson of colleges who
have been, and still remain, active
member*. The influences of the frater
nities are for good. The main feature is
literary. Their aim is to select first-class
members, and the great rivalry between
them is to select the very best students at
the beginning of the session, and urge
them on to win all the awards of
the oollege, that they may
reflect honor upon the organization. If
gentlemen who think they should be sup
pressed had read the notices of the annual
reunions, they would have found that the
most distinguished orators and statesmen
have delivered the addresses at the yearly
assembling of the Chapters. The secrecy
is not beoause they do anything of whiob
they are ashamed, or for which they
should blush. It is merely, that they may
have a widened organization, and all be
bonnd by the tie of friendship, as is tbs
oaae with the Masons and Odd Fellows-
Disreputable characters, and oontinual
violators of oollege laws are expelled from
the Chapters. As a rnle, the honor men
of an institution are attached to one or
the other of these fraternities, and if
naked they will tell you that they have
derived more improvement in oertain
soholaatlo studies from the Fraternity
than in the olass room or debating ball.
We were onoe at a oollege where the pro
fessors were bitterly opposed to suoh or
ganizations. One, who is now one of the
most oelebraled instuetors in the United
States, consented by earnest request to
become initiated. When the usnal form
had transpired and the entire proceedings
laid bare, he warmly advocated the objeots
and congratulated the Chapter, and to his
influence, strong and potent, was due the
fsot that, the Chapter waa retained at that
University. They should never be con-
damned unheard. The most delightful
reoolleotions of the purest pleasures of
college life are oonneoted with the seoret
societies. They have some bad members
in their ranks, as has every other organi
zation, but the tendency is to drew each
from evil. If the, trustees will examine
we are confident they will diaoover that
the students who have joined the secret
societies or fraternities in college par-
lanoe, are fitat in classes,duty end honors.
We hope the trustees will reoonstder
their action. We are writing of what we
know, and not from the representations
of prejodioed professors, or college men
disappointed of election in the fraternity
to which they aspire.
Another thing is a fact, and that is it Is
impossible to abolish these societies.
Borne have existed for three-quarters, if
not a century. The D. K. E. and A. D.
Phi fraternities onoe well known in the
South in ante-bellum days and now very
flourishing in the North, as well as others,
are very anoient. The B. A. E., which
has a Chapter at Athens, has lived a
quarter of a century. Trustees have time
after time attempted to drive them from
the smallor colleges. Suoh has never been
attempted at the larger Universities, be
cause aome of the controlling men of the
body have been members of fraternities
and known their excellence and benefioial
effects.
