"Old South" is a cotillion at EP chapter. (Purdue U--way to the north of the Mason-Dixon line.) It had **nothing** to do with slavery, or African-Americans, or the mockery thereof.
Basically, everyone dressed according to the custom of the Antebellum period, and made a more specific effort to practice the gentille customs of chivalry that the KA code of conduct is supposed to be based on.
