Content DescriptionReturn to Top
The Vanadis Bragi Society was organized in 1926 at the Washington State Normal School at Bellingham (now Western Washington University). Taking its name from the Norse gods of love and poetry, the club provided a venue for students to read and discuss world literature. It also hosted a wide range of social activities including dances, parties, picnics, and hikes. This collection of two minute-books contains notes on club meetings and is interspersed with rosters, bylaws, and treasurer’s reports.
