The Rule
The Society has a "Rule." Frederic and the members of the Society wanted to maintain the character, mission, and purpose of the Society, as it grew larger. The Rule was therefore instituted in 1835. Approximately 85% of the "Rule" remained unchanged for over 150 years, but was significantly modified during 2005. Changes have occurred to accommodate things like structure and organization as the Society grew, as well as things like keeping it up to date with the social system, and terms.
