Trianon sorority was a national collegiate organization operating in the United States from December 1929 until 1977. == Beginnings == Trianon was formed from the mergers of three college clubs in Ohio and Indiana. First, at the University of Cincinnati, in 1925, Dean Josephine P. Simrall assisted female student in creating the Campus Club. Next, in November 1926, several women formed a similar club on their campus, Butler University. In the spring of 1929, thirty-seven female students at Miami University formed the Miami Girl's Club (Trianon Key). Members of the three clubs convened on December 28 and 29, 1929, to form Trianon sorority. This event came to be known as the first National Convention of Trianon (Trianon Key). Per "The 1942 Drift" yearbook of Butler University, Indianapolis, Indiana, ''"Trianon, the national non-Greek sorority, was established on the Butler Campus in December 28, 1929. Butler was one of three mother units of Trianon."'' Adviser for this 1942 sorority was Mrs. Gino Ratti; Miss Martha Kincaid was Faculty Sponsor. The ties that bound the members of the three individual clubs were finances and values. " ''For a long time college campuses felt the need for more democratic social organizations to take care of girls whose principles revolted against fraternities into which only a selected few were bidden and whose dues and fees were outside the limit of the average girl's allowance''" (Trianon Key). Trianon employed an open membership policy; interested students completed a formal application (Trianon Key). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Trianon (sorority)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
