Founded in 1906 the Senior Skull So- ciety originally consisted of eleven members, chosen at the end of their junior year on the basis of character, scholarship, popularity, and participa- tion in college activities. The object of the society was the betterment of the University by causing friendly feelings between the fraternities and closer uni- ty of the student body. The Skulls still endeavor to perpet- uate the traditions of the University, to promote friendly campus relations, and propagate Maine spirit.

Ex- tensive fire damage in 1893 made many renovations nec- essary, and the porch and tower were added at this time. But Something looks Familiar cl aiptu Omitron Pi ■Ulf The Greeks found their place at Maine in 1900. Alpha Omicron Pi, Gamma chapter, was the first sorority on campus, established in 1908. The Kappa Sigma House, built in 1895, was the first fraternity house erected at the University.
