Description: Finding aid for a collection. Collection description: The Query Club had its first meeting September 26, 1885 at Dr. W.E. Ward's residence in Nashville, Tennessee. The club was founded by Olympe Trabue, who assembled a group of her friends to explore intellectual and popular topics of the day. In the early days meetings were held each week in a small room downtown in the Vendome Theater on 7th Avenue North. The present membership of the club meet the first Tuesday of the month for dinner and a paper given on a topic chosen for the year and followed by a stated "Query" related to the topic. This collection is comprised of a member roster, a short history, and 15 audio cassettes of programs and remembrances of the Fugitives and Agrarians at Vanderbilt by Query Club members during the 1993-94 year.
