YR College

I was invited to join the YR college . I was told that they wanted to ask me to become a member a few years ago but because I already have so many irons in the fire they did not think I wanted to join another body . I am on the fence about joining though , as they are correct , I am busy enough already .

Ksig , You are a member , what do think about the College and is it worth it ?

First off, congrats on receiving the invite. Second, I think it was worth it. The ceremony is a fascinating (albeit very symbolic) one and I like that we only meet a few times a year (and those meetings don't last too long if there is no initiations) as our major purpose sits outside the bounds of the College in assisting the York Rite bodies (to include the Blue Lodge).

Dues for my College are only $25 so the dues are not too harsh. Now, I'm not sure if this is universal, but my college requires all members to wear tuxedos to the meetings and as I needed one for various other functions I had already bought one.

My local YR college is around $25 a year also . From what I was told their dress code is black business suit . At least I hope it is business suit as I really do not want to , nor would I even think about , buying a tux . As that would be the only reason I needed it . If a tux is a requirement then I will have to pass on the college .

I am not sure what every College requires of its membership for clothing.

I needed a tux already for Grand Lodge meetings, Grand York Rite meetings (specifically installations), and my Scottish Rite requires Tux in while conferring a few degrees.
