Administrative history
The Caius Club was founded in 1906 as an association of old Caians. Its purpose was to keep members of the College in touch with one another by means of an address list and an annual dinner. The Club arose from a proposal made at the Annual London dinner of Caians in July 1906, made by Harold Claughton Scott, secretary of that dinner. The membership of the Club is open to Caians who choose to subscribe, rather than being constituted of the whole body of alumni.
