Linonia, founded in 1753, is the second-oldest society at Yale College and the oldest surviving literary and debating society, outlasting its short-lived predecessor, Crotonia. Today, Linonia operates as a secret senior society at Yale, continuing the centuries-old tradition of promoting friendship and social intercourse.
Members of the society are known as "Linonians".
