Social Events: Campus Queens
Georgius Pupus Supreme I |
|
The mid 1950s to the early 1960s were the golden years
for the crowning of campus queens. Every college had one and "crowning"
was a featured event of many college dances. Notable among the individual
Queens were the Annual Blood Drive Committee's "Vampire's Dream" of
1966, who was selected by the editorial staff of Playboy magazine, and
1962 College of Pharmacy Maintenance Queen Hilda Hemmorod.
And of course there was the glorious reign of Georgus
Rex (Rex Universatatis) who in 1955 became the only Campus King ever crowned
at the University of Saskatchewan.
