A.C. Gilbert Smithsonian article and letters from Arnold Taylor, 1999 - 2001

This collection belonged to the Gamma Sigma Fraternity, which includes a log book, minutes, pledge manual, a creative pledge sheet, and a copy of the charter from 1873. The Pledge manual is an instructional piece for the fraternity to be sure that the steps in the pledging process are taken correctly. It includes secret activities, spring activities, financial obligations, meetings and tentative schedules in October, November, and December. The originally written copy of the Gamma Sigma charter by faculty in 1873 is a step by step constitution by which the society follows.
