SCIIAES: "The Society for Confining Immoral Impulses Among Engineering Students (SCIIAES) had the emblem of the lily. Originally a form of anti-student society, SCIIAES originated in 1956 and was a running joke for the next two decades, as first-year students were initiated into the society. SCIIAES reputedly offered 'Degrees in Imbibition', requiring candidates to complete a pub crawl visiting approximately 30 hotels (in 1966 21 pubs, with one twice) on a given route around the wider campus area. The Bachelor of Imbibition (BI) required candidates to drink a standard (7 oz) glass of beer in every pub in the one day [or in two hours, by some accounts] and a BI (Hons) required them to drink a 10 oz glass of beer at each pub, while a Masters in Imbibition (MI) required a 7 oz glass of fortified wine, and a PhD required a tot of top-shelf at each pub. Once a candidate had completed his (almost always a him) requirements for the BI, he was given an academic testamur, even with a proper seal."
Stu Longmuir writes (6 Oct 2012): "Looking at Google Maps today I find only four of these [21] hotels still exist; these are the Prince Alfred, the Queensberry, Young and Jackson’s, and Hosies. Gone are the Canada, Oxford, Travellers, Britannica, Graham, Cathedral, Connells, London, House of Commons, Post Office, Elizabeth, Wilsons Victorian, Stork, Royal Artillery, Hollyford, Gresham, and Mayfair hotels." Sic gloria transit.
There were also chapters of SCIIAES at the Universities of Adelaide and Queensland.
