Revision as of 14:10, 15 June 2008 by Epbr123 (talk | contribs) (clean up using AWB)(diff) ← Previous revision | Latest revision (diff) | Newer revision → (diff)The Sphinx Head Society is the oldest senior honor society at Cornell University in Ithaca, New York. Sphinx Head recognizes Cornell senior men and women who, throughout their undergraduate years, have demonstrated respectable strength of character on top of a dedication to leadership and service at Cornell University. Election into Sphinx Head has been recognized by The New York Times as "the highest non-scholastic honor within reach of undergraduates."
Founding
Sphinx Head was founded in 1890 by a group of men from the senior class. The Society was founded in order to "create and maintain a stronger feeling" for Cornell University and to promote "a closer and stronger friendship among members of the Senior class." In 1891, The New York Times referred to Sphinx Head as "a secret senior society of the nature of Skull and Bones", a senior honor society at Yale University of which Andrew Dickson White, Cornell University's Co-founder and first President, was a member. White encouraged the formation a secret society system on the Cornell campus.
Membership
Each year, Sphinx Head usually taps fewer than forty members of the senior class for membership, both men and women. Since the Society's founding, membership has been "reserved for the most respected" members of the senior class at Cornell. The names of newly tapped Sphinx Heads were published in The New York Times through the 1930s, but are now published exclusively in The Cornell Daily Sun. Sphinx Head also awards honorary membership to Cornell administration, faculty, staff, and alumni for their "significant personal and/or professional accomplishment, outstanding leadership, distinguished service to the university and interest in and commitment to undergraduate student life and development."
At Cornell
Sphinx Head has "retained an aura of mystery throughout its history on campus", holding some "closely guarded secrets and traditions." Although membership in Sphinx Head is public, the proceedings of the Society remain concealed. Since the founding the Society, Sphinx Head members have been responsible for starting many long-standing Cornell University traditions such as the annual Dragon Day celebration, the use of "The Big Red" to describe Cornell athletics, as well as Spring Day, the precursor to the current Slope Day celebration.
Members of Sphinx Head have held many prominent positions within Cornell University serving as Presidents, Provosts, Deans, Directors of Athletics, Cornell Council members, Trustees and Chairpersons of the Board of Trustees. More than one-third of the Presidents of the Cornell University Alumni Association have been members and twenty percent of the Chairpersons of the Cornell University Board of Trustees have been affiliated with the Society. Names of alumni can be found on the Cornell campus on Bartels Hall, Fernow Hall, Samuel C. Johnson School of Business Management, Robert Kane Track, Jansen Noyes Community Center, Jerome H. Holland International Living Center, Robert Purcell Community Center , Willard Straight Hall and Upson Hall.
After Cornell
Many Sphinx Heads have attained great success and distinction in their post-collegiate careers. Members have gone on to careers in government as U.S. Presidential Cabinet members; United States Senators, Members of the U.S. House of Representatives, U.S. Secretary of Armed Forces, U.S. Ambassadors, and members of state and local legislators. In business, members have gone on to become CEO, Chairman and Board Members of American Red Cross, AT&T, British Petroleum, Chevron Corporation, Coors Brewing Company, Emerson Electric, IBM, Morgan Stanley, Northrop Grumman Shipbuilding, Paramount Pictures, S. C. Johnson & Son, Inc., Union Carbide and other Fortune 500 companies. In education, members have won Rhodes Scholarships, Fulbright Scholarships, and have become deans and presidents of top universities. In athletics, members have gone on to become Olympic Gold medalists, Winners of Wimbledon, and members of both Cornell University and National Athletic Halls of Fame. In journalism, members have earned Emmy Awards and Pulitzer Prizes. At Cornell, members have become chairmen and members of the Cornell University Board of Trustees, Cornell University Council, major Cornell University donors, Cornell University Entrepreneurs of the Year and Frank H.T. Rhodes Exemplary Alumni Service Award recipients. Numerous members are also profiled in The 100 Most Notable Cornellians.
