Local Note
The Sonneteers, an a capella singing group, were “born” in 1950 after Nancy-Ann Nacke ‘51 “supplied the winning name for the [loosely-affiliated] Senior Singing Group . . . THE SONNETEERS . . . you know . . . English ... 14 lines . . . the sonnet . . .” during the formation of what would later become the annual “Singspiration Weekend” (see “Skidmore News,” October 26, 1950, p.2). At the start, “casualness marked their outfits of jeans, sneakers and sailor hats. But as the Sonneteers became a permanent group on the campus, so too, ‘Vogue’ became a challenging influence, and a more formal attire of black skirts and sweaters and white Skidmore blazers was adopted, today, this group has the distinction of being one of the first women’s singing groups to travel to other eastern college campuses, from Dartmouth College in New Hampshire to Princeton University in New Jersey” (see “Skidmore News,” January 12, 1956, p.3). Still active, the Sonneteers now have the distinction of being the oldest performing group on campus.
