Only four years after the founding of theschool a society was organized which was called The Otterbein Philo-mathean Literary Society. About 1854 in order to secure better advantages this organization wasdivided into two societies.

When the new building was nearing completion the question ofliterary societies again attracted attention of the students, resulting in somedissention as to organization. Eleven ladies by permission of the facultywithdrew and organized what is now called Cleiorhetean Literary Society.
