Over time the societies had rooms in College buildings, decorated with chairs that included the clubs' Greek letters, banners, and books. Society members debated against and with each other. As of 2019, only the Euzelian Society is still in existence. Its mission is to "revive and sustain the intellectual culture of Wake Forest University by fostering a creative academic outlet for students."</p> </bioghist> <dsc> <c id="aspace_ref9_3o5" level="file"> <did> <unittitle>Anniversary Proceedings</unittitle> <unitdatestructured datechar="creation" unitdatetype="inclusive"> <daterange> <fromdate standarddate="1872">1872</fromdate> <todate standarddate="1925">1925</todate> </daterange> </unitdatestructured> <container id="aspace_976ac02b5b9f87ed8ce6860df436319c" label="Mixed Materials" localtype="box">1</container> <container id="aspace_fecc4a188e4211634c26ae714b8789b9" localtype="folder" parent="aspace_976ac02b5b9f87ed8ce6860df436319c">1</container> </did> </c> <c id="aspace_ref10_f5u" level="file"> <did> <unittitle>Anniversary Record Book (1 oversize volume)</unittitle> <unitdatestructured datechar="creation" unitdatetype="inclusive"> <daterange> <fromdate standarddate="1854">1854</fromdate> <todate standarddate="1907">1907</todate> </daterange> </unitdatestructured> <container id="aspace_bf75763a50ca20ef7f7dee3774a1f634" label="Mixed Materials" localtype="volume">1</container> </did> </c> <c id="aspace_ref11_hxy" level="file"> <did> <unittitle>Marshall's Regalia</unittitle> <container id="aspace_2e4cd4a2b700cb40110bddfb3a744e52" label="Realia" localtype="box">3</container> </did> </c> <c id="aspace_ref12_v1g" level="file"> <did> <unittitle>Society Day Records</unittitle> <unitdatestructured datechar="creation" unitdatetype="inclusive"> <daterange> <fromdate standarddate="1913">1913</fromdate> <todate standarddate="1924">1924</todate> </daterange> </unitdatestructured> <unitdate datechar="creation" unitdatetype="inclusive">1913 October 30-1924 November 3</unitdate> <container id="aspace_d0b1102d35c724bc4d97ce3fa39dc398" label="Mixed Materials" localtype="box">1</container> <container id="aspace_f43f41d474c0b203869b8e3a76504fc6" localtype="folder" parent="aspace_d0b1102d35c724bc4d97ce3fa39dc398">4</container> </did> </c> <c id="aspace_ref13_n33" level="file"> <did> <unittitle>Society Day Programs</unittitle> <unitdatestructured datechar="creation" unitdatetype="inclusive"> <daterange> <fromdate standarddate="1921">1921</fromdate> <todate standarddate="1924">1924</todate> </daterange> </unitdatestructured> <container id="aspace_9e557ce7d8fafc2024b045d8a261994f" label="Mixed Materials" localtype="box">1</container> <container id="aspace_57bc767425dbf7753da54d1ab161a281" localtype="folder" parent="aspace_9e557ce7d8fafc2024b045d8a261994f">5</container> </did> </c> </dsc> </archdesc> </ead>
