All-

In reviewing some items I've posted to the Nat History & Archive YG, I found my post regarding the terms we have used to describe us over the years.

Here is what I wrote. In light of this, its not surprising the term used about us in an article in Scouting magazine from 1934...

At the 1934 National Convention, it was decided that we would refer
to ourselves as a National Service Fraternity. So that is the start
of that term. What about before?

In the Lightbearers from 1931 to 1934, we used the term "A National
Honorary College Fraternity". (this was part of the letterhead of the magazine)

Earlier issues used slightly different terms:

In 1927, we were refered to as a National College Fraternity, with
the words Honorary & Professional being used. In the second issue of
1927, Education and Social Service were added.

In 1928, we called ourselves an International College Fraternity.
Honorary, Professional, Education, and Social Service continued to be
used thru 1930.

In 1929, we were back to being a National College Fraternity, but
with the caveat that we were "International in Scope".

In 1930, we were just a National College Fraternity.
