Woodrow Wilson Pictures

Woodrow Wilson, the 28th President of the United States, poses for a portrait in this undated file photo. Wilson, viewed by his contemporaries as remote, cold, overly idealistic and bookish was also a man who was a baseball fanatic, and quite capable of falling deeply and passionately in love.

Princeton Eating Clubs - 1883 Ivy Hall built a simple frame house on Prospect Avenue and thus became the first selfperpetuating upperclass eating club; Ivy was followed in 1886 by the University Cottage Club, and in the early 1890s by Tiger Inn, Cap and Gown, Colonial, Cannon, and Elm; The early 19OOs saw the formation of six more clubs -- Campus, Quadrangle, Charter, Tower, Terrace, Key and Seal -- and by 1906 two-thirds of the upperclassmen were eating regularly on Prospect Avenue; Four more were begun in the years before the First World War: Dial Lodge, Arch Club, Cloister Inn, and Gateway. Arch Club was short-lived, disbanding with the onset of the war. Eight more new clubhouses replaced frame-house ``incubators,'' Cannon Club with a cannon before its main entrance, Dial Lodge, a sundial on its facade; When Key and Seal disbanded in 1968, its clubhouse and the adjoining building, which Court Club had given up four years earlier, were converted to a non-selective dining;Three more clubs discontinued operations in the early 1970s and their buildings were used for other purposes -- Elm and Cannon as quarters for University research programs, Cloister Inn as a club open to all alumni -- but Cloister Inn was revived as an undergraduate eating club in 1977, and Elm Club, in 1978. - Pictures of Tiger (1890), Colonial (1891), Tower (1902), Cloister (1912)
