I can't find any info on this organization, and I would like to know more about it.
Thanks!

I haven't heard of it but MC has a very long and complicated history of it's greek life. There have been many locals that became chapters of nationals. That's what I suspect happened with your organization. Or it could have been a literary society. Most of those became houses later on. Try talking to Jacob Tidwell in the Student Life office. Also try the Slack Collection in the Legacy Library. Honestly, Marietta College has been very bad about preserving its own history. The best sources would be the local history building of the county library or the antique shops on Front Street.
