The Club consisted of thirty members. The Club was organized with the following aims: To gain a better understanding of Roman life and customs by study of conditions as they existed in the Roman empire; to learn to what extent Latin influences our language, literature, and thought; to develop individual initiative of its members and inspire them with greater regard for the past. Besides making a constitution providing for its continuance, the Club purchased pictures for the Latin room, presented a Latin play, sent a Christmas basket, and entertained the Scott’s Classical Club at a typical Roman banquet.
