Historical Note
The Faculty Round Table was organized November 1, 1901. Its aim was to promote professional and social intercourse of its members. Its membership was restricted to the faculty and instructors of the college, and their wives and husbands. Regular meetings occurred monthly during the college year. The aim was to inspire intellectual discussion of papers presented at each meeting.
