Most Harvard Clubs Easy to Join
"To join most Harvard Clubs is a very simple matter. All that a man has to do is tell the secretary or almost any member that he is a Harvard man living in the community and wants to join, and he is promptly enrolled. It is necessarily somewhat more formal in the Boston and New York groups, which are run as social clubs. In these two organizations, candidates must be proposed and seconded by two members of the Club and their names passed on by the committee on admissions.
"Another constant lifelong bond with Harvard is, of course, one's class and every graduate should make a point of attending his class reunions as long as he lives. Many graduates find that these reunions increase in interest and enjoyment with age.
Alumni Relations Committee Formed
"The University has recently taken a step designed to keep close the bonds with the Alumni by the appointment by the Board of Overseers of a Committee on Alumni Relations and of a Secretary for Alumni Affairs with an office in University Hall. The Committee is composed of the presidents of the University, of the Alumni Association, and of the Associated Harvard Clubs, ex officio, and of four Overseers,--a very representative group of graduates--and the Secretary for Alumni Affairs. The Secretary is J. W. D. seymour '17, who is also Secretary of the Alumni Association.
"It is therefore obvious that there is every opportunity for a Harvard graduate to keep in touch with Harvard affairs. Those who neglect to do so lose an interest which might well color their whole lives."
