The fifteenth biennial convention of Pi Beta Phi fraternity was held in Madison, Wis., from July fifth to the 11th. The convention was the occasion of the gathering of over eight college girls representing institutions scattered from Massachusetts and Maryland to California, and from Vermont to Louisiana. The days were devoted to business meetings and the evenings to social enjoyment. On Tuesday evening an informal reception was given the visitors at the Beta Theta Pilodge. Wednesday evening the grand council conducted a model initiation. Thursday morning the party enjoyed a sunrise trip around Lake Mendota and breakfast at the summer cottage of one of the patronesses, the wife of Professor Barnes. Thursday evening the local chapter tendered a brilliant reception to the visitors and to 300 of the students, faculty and Madison friends. The social events closed Friday with an elaborate banquet at Guild hall. The next convention will be held in 1890, with the chapter at the University of Colorado. The following notice of the gathering is clipped from the Milwaukee Sentinel of July 18th: "Pi Beta Phi is the oldest of the woman's college fraternities, having been founded at Monmouth in 1867, so this convention is significant as marking the thirtieth anniversary of its existence." "This fraternity is also the largest of the Greek letter societies for women, maintaining chapters in twenty-eight of the most prominent educational institutions in the country."
