IMP Society

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The IMP Society, was founded in 1902 at the University of Virginia as a secret society called Hot Feet, which was disbanded and recreated as the IMP Society, an acronym generally believed to stand for "Incarnate Memories Prevail." In addition to a number of philanthropic activities IMPs are known to march around campus carrying pitchforks, wearing horned hoods, and engaging in mild mischief and revelry. The society publicly "taps" its new members, and most current members wear a ring indicating their membership to the organization. While the members of the group are known, many of their community service works are not widely publicized. Like the Seven Society and Z Society, the IMP Society is known to paint their symbol around Grounds.
