| A Brief History of Seal & Serpent | |
Seal and Serpent was founded in 1905 when two circles of friends began to socialize together. These original 10 "Snakes" decided to share a house at the base of the Slope and formalized their association into a fraternity. Seal and Serpent flourished by attracting a diverse group of men of character. In 1929, the Society built the Lodge at 305 Thurston Avenue. To this day, over 1,000 brothers have called the Lodge their home. Over the years, Seal and Serpent has been many things. At times it has been called a jock house, an architect house, a ROTC house, and who knows what else. But the people who have known Seal and Serpent best have always called it a house of character and a house full of characters. Like any Cornell institution, we have long list of alumni who have been Generals, Ambassadors, Cornell Trustees and the like. We are proud of these men, and we are equally proud of each of our members who has accomplished whatever he values most. If you are interested in learning more about Seal and Serpent we want
