I think giving this article its own page is seriously going a little overboard. I recommend a page that consists of a list of all honorary societies at Cornell rather than making a separate page for each one.
And what is up with using present tense in everything? Everyone knows that this organization has been defunct for nearly three decades. Sure someone could be trying to start the thing back up (like some people tried in 2004 with Chancery), but without the signature book there is no claim to legitimacy.
I've seen your other articles and you can definitely put together a polished article. But is it seriously worth putting one together just for Aleph Samach and then asking Uncle Ezra about it to get more hits? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.253.234.100 (talk) 19:58, 23 September 2011 (UTC)
Restore the Missing Members
Wrong read on notability. Removing those members was wrong; by listing them, you are not saying they are notable. They are merely facts in the article, the subject of which has already proven its notability, above. Time to stop playing campus games on Wikipedia. Coldplay3332 (talk) 13:19, 21 September 2011 (UTC)
