SCOPE AND CONTENT

The Aglaia Honor Society records include the Secretary's Book, containing meeting minutes (1940-1960), a treasury ledger (1958-1960), correspondence, and a list of initiates (1940-1959). Other records include a copy of the Society's constitution, a script for an initiation service, an annual report for 1963-1964, and a file of newsclippings about the Society.
