- Party_of_the_Right_(Yale) abstract "The Party of the Right (POR) is a political organization founded in 1953, in the Yale Political Union. The POR was founded by conservative members of the Conservative Party, and is the third-oldest party in the Yale Political Union. Membership in the Party of the Right is elective, and is, as a quotation from the 1950s boasts, awarded on the basis on intellectualism, not ideology: "We care not what you think, only that you think." The PoR is also known for its tolerance of nicotine. Members smoke cigarettes, cigars, and pipes at Party and YPU functions. Its membership has traditionally been divided between libertarian and traditionalist camps, but the POR today is very ideologically libertarian. The POR has been described in a recent Yale Herald article as "at once flamboyant, intellectually elitist, aggressive, mischievously subversive, eccentric, and maniacally eager to challenge anyone and everyone." Doug Henwood, a member who converted back to leftism, complained in the Nation: "Most Political Union members are perceived by outsiders as earnest and even dorky, but the POR is the only party that achieves serious levels of weirdness. Not the kind of weirdness famously catalogued by Orwell, who lamented socialism's appeal to "every fruit-juice drinker, nudist, sandal wearer" and the rest. Members of the POR wear black tie, not sandals, and the surroundings are posher than Orwell had in mind. But a POR meeting is something truly extraplanetary."".
