Historical Note

The Idune Honorary Society was founded 16 March 1933, to “foster and encourage scholarship among Augustana Women.” The society appears to have been short-lived as there is little mention of it in the Rockety-I save for the initial announcement of its founding in the 1932-1933 school year.
