U
EPSILON DELTA is a local professional sorority, whose
purpose is to promote fellowship among the pre-medic
women, in an endeavor to raise the standards of the
college. In order that this purpose may be realized,
numerous meetings are held throughout the year at
which the members meet and come in closer contact with
various doctors, social workers, and other prominent
persons whose professions are influenced by the
medical world.
The sorority as a
body visits public institutions where interesting
medical cases are observed and studied. In that way
science and its application is emphasized, even in the
pre-medic year.
Once a year it is
customary for the Nu Med organization to put on the
monthly meeting in charge of the pre-medic women. This
is called Co-ed Night, and is sponsored by Mu Epsilon
Delta.
It is a custom of the
society to devote one of the social meetings of the
year to the entertaining of the Lincoln Women's
Medical Society. At this time each doctor relates some
interesting experience or case that will prove
beneficial to the future medical women.
Mu Epsilon Delta was
organized at the University of Nebraska in October,
1923, being the first of its kind in the United
States.
