At meet- ings, various professors and students contributed ideas concerning na- tional problemsg for example, Mr. Cottrell and Mr. Cunningham spoke on racial segregation. Members served the campus by counting votes for student elections.

Later, the members were informed about textiles through a speech delivered by an art professor at Miami. In November, the organization held its initiation. Highlight of the events was an Oriental dinner. Dean Ward joined the girls as they sat on pillows and ate with chopsticks from lowered tables.
