The Cosmopolitan Club was organized through the YMCA to help bring foreign students into a closer relation with American Students, customs, and ideals. Likewise for the American student to understand the foreign student. The club grew rapidly and was believed to be of great aid to the foreign students in developing their ability as leaders and students. According to 1926-1927 "K Book" the club grew to a membership of about eighteen students and faculty, nine of which were foreign born. Meetings were held each month, having a different county presented by its representatives each time. Socials were held in connection with the meetings and foreign student were made officers of the club to give them opportunity to develop their executive ability.
