[edit] History

Sic Sic was formed on October 05, 1946 by then University President Frank J. Prout as a secret, anonymous booster organization to promote more campus spirit. Prout selected the first six members from The Key, Bowling Green's annual yearbook, and invited them to meet him in his office at 12:45am and told the students to not tell anyone where they were going. The six undergraduates met with the President in his office and agreed to join the secret organization which they called Sic Sic.[1] Currently, Sic Sic is made of six undergraduates (two sophomores, two juniors, and two seniors). New members are chosen during the end of their freshman year in order to replace that year's graduating seniors.

[edit] Traditions

The Sic Sic members adorn halloween masks jumpsuits and gloves, the masks are of Arnold Schwarzenegger, George Washington, Eminem, Michael Jackson, Marilyn Monroe, and The Queen. Sic Sic members travel around the field and stands during all athletic events throwing candy to the fans attending the game as well as taking pictures with numerous students. Sic Sic members are always masked and their identities are not revealed until the last home basketball game of their senior year, where they are unmasked in front of the student body.[2]
