Biographical / Historical
The Ugly Club existed during the nineteenth century at Davidson College. Members were elected to the group and given certain derogatory names such as "Conceited Man, " "Ugly Man", "Ladies Man", "Little Man", "Lazy Man", and "Pretty Man." All name-calling was done in jest because, for example, the "Ugly Man" was generally quite handsome as opposed to "ugly."
