The Clionian Literary Society held weekly meetings where discipline was strict. The members wrote the rules of conduct for the meetings and could be fined for various actions, including being late to meetings, speaking without permission, leaning back in chairs and spitting on the floors. This society, complete with Constitution and By-Laws, could be considered a precursor to the Greek fraternities and sororities which would come later.
