...would be, in their judgment, likely to foster a mode of club life undesirable in itself, and inconsistent with the simple and pleasant traditions of the Hasty Pudding." Furthermore, the expenses of the club would thereby be so much increased as to preclude many from membership, and injury would result from "exaggerating the importance of purely club interests, and thus promoting the tendency, at all times strong among undergraduates, to subordinate the real interests and objects of their college life to social pleasures and trivial occupations...
