History
The Men's Undergraduate Society (MUS) organized freshman initiation and controlled all class and faculty social activities, with the exception of the graduating class. The MUS executive consisted of a president as well as the presidents of each of the Arts, Science, and Agriculture Men's Undergraduate Societies. At the beginning of the fall term, the MUS called for the submission of budgets from each of the various classes and the Undergraduate Societies. The budgets were reviewed, and in the case of classes, fees were set according to the budgeted amount. The major social activities consisted of three faculty balls and two banquets. In 1945, the MUS became one of the bodies absorbed by the Undergraduate Societies Committee.
