Through the twenty-two years sin-ce its beginning, the aim of the society has been to serve the whole University in the 'best way possible. Its members have no interest as individuals which are not subordinated to the general good of the University and the stu- dent body. It has always endeavored to include in its active membership a number of men in the Senior class who have been notably loyal, and successful in scholarship, or in any of the several forms of student activity during the student career, in the belief that by the co-operation of the men of 'high standing in the Senior class, men who have obtained this standing by several years of creditable University life, much may be accom- plished for the University. The Society has always believed that election to its membership is not so much a recognition of what a man has done, as an opportunity for increased loyalty and service. In its elections, all considerations of affiliations of those elected or of any qualifications other than those of the individual himself has been avoided. In brief, the Society's aims, hopes, and ambitions are centered in the words: For Chicago.
