The Order of the Frog
The Order of the Frog or The Order of the Ever Jumping and Smiling Little Green Frog is an academic order associated with the Natural Sciences Faculty Club at
Natural Sciences and/or student life. Nobel Laurates in the natural sciences that attend the ball are invested into the Order of the Frog together with other students. Those who are invested are said to have to jump like frogs on the University Campus in keeping with tradition with the original award in 1917. [3]
When a member of the order dies the members closest are asked to return the frog insignia which the members wear around they necks or otherwise destroy it.[4][unreliable source?]
