    Description

    Very Scarce WW1 Era Perdue University TEKNION Club Sterling Pendant, hammered finish
    Teknion Club was a fraternal organization on Perdue University campus. The last mention of the club that I can find is a clipping from Perdue’s University newspaper, in which they detail the membership losses sustained by the school fraternities due to students joining the military to serve in WW1. This clipping from1917 is shown in the last photo. With a membership of 12, and a loss of 9 members (75%), it is conceivable that the fraternity folded due to WWI. 75% represents the 2nd highest membership loss of all the fraternal organizations on campus.
