Erosophian Society
In 1907 the preparatory students organized the Erosophian Society with the aim of making sociological studies and giving students opportunity for training in the public presentation of material. During the current year the organization has had a membership of one hundred and thirty and has devoted itself, in the main, to an intensive study of Kalamazoo, its resources, industries and institutions. If is planning, for next year, to take up the evolution of education in this locality. The Society feels it has great reason to be encouraged by the admirable spirit which has developed among its members.
The Choral Union, under Miss Marsh's direction, has had a continuous and steady growth in membership ever since its organization in the Fall of 1905. It has been the means of bringing a number of well-known artists to the school and has thus far given, in addition to miscellaneous concerts, an opera, "Martha," in concert form; two cantatas, "Rose Maiden," and "The Wreck of the Hsperus"; Hadyn's Oratorio, "The Creation," Grieg's "Olaf Trygvasson" and Planquette's tuneful opera, "The Chimes of Normandy."
