3 1/4" x 5 3/8" postcard showing a large group of men in wintertime walking on the sidewalk running beside the KKK house. Kappa Kappa Kappa (KKK) is a local men's fraternity at Dartmouth College. The fraternity was founded in 1842 and was based on the principles of democracy, loyalty to Dartmouth, and equality of opportunity. Originally a literary and debate society, KKK officially became a social society in 1905. KKK is the second-oldest fraternity at Dartmouth College as well as the oldest local fraternity in the United States. Postcard is addressed to Dr. L.R.
