The Fly Club is a final club at Harvard College in Cambridge, Massachusetts. It was established in 1836 and operated as a chapter of Alpha Delta Phi before becoming a local organization in 1906.
History
Fly Club was founded in 1836 at Harvard College as a literary society by the editors of Harvardiana. Its founding members were John Bacon, William Augustus Davis, John Fenwick Eustis, Horatio Hale, Nathan Hale, Charles Hayward, Samuel Tenney Hildreth, Rufus King, George Warren Lippitt, James Russell Lowell, Charles Woodman Scates, Charles Stearns Wheeler, and Henry Williams.
The club was granted a charter by the Alpha Delta Phi fraternity on March 29, 1837. It remained active until surrendering its charter in 1865. With the graduation of the members of the class of 1868, the club was discontinued. In 1878, graduate members Edward Everett Hale (class of 1839) and Phillips Brooks (class of 1855), initiated undergraduates from the class of 1879. This restored the Harvard chapter of Alpha Delta Phi.
In December 1906, the fraternity's charter was once again surrendered with the group continuing as a local fraternity. In January 1910, the organization officially adopted the name "Fly Club," its unofficial title since 1885.
Fly Club admitted its first African American members in the 1970s. In 1996, the Fly Club merged with the D.U. Club or Delta Upsilon, another final club, and the combined entity retained the name Fly Club. Although the merged included the alumni of the 116-year-old D.U. Club, it did not include its active members
