The Greek Interpreters of East Lansing

The Greek Interpreters, America’s pioneer academic scion and the oldest in Michigan, was founded at Michigan State College on April 16, 1945 by a small group of student devotees, guided and inspired by Professor Robert P. Adams (English Literature) and Page Heldenbrand. They chose their name to fit the College’s “Spartan” appellation, and duly reported an account of the founding meeting to The Baker Street Journal (Volume 1, Number 3, September, 1946). Evidence of their enthusiasm and creativity rests with a pastiche titled, The Singular Affair of Mr. Phillip Phot, written by the founding group and also published in The Baker Street Journal (Volume 2, Number 1, March, 1947).
