Once a Damce, always a Dame.
W With this slogan a group of
married women students and
wives of students and interns
joined in 1921 to form the Mich-
igan Dames.
Remarking on the Dames, Mrs.
Mary Sussman, president, said,
"This is a wonderful way to meet
a friend, which is very important
to a wife of any student. It pro-
vides a social and educational in-
terest for her while her husband
is busy with studies in the even-
ing."
