Historical Note

The Wranglers, a social club formed in 1910 at Pullman, Washington, began as a small group of male faculty members and senior administrators. The membership was fixed at 20 individuals. Beginning in 1910, they met regularly during the academic year for programs they called "Wrangles," featuring presentations by members. By the 1990s, the group had expanded with a larger membership including at least one woman.
