The Philolexian Society of Columbia University is one of the oldest college literary and debate societies in the United States, and the oldest student group at Columbia. Founded in 1802, the Society aims to "improve its members in Oratory, Composition and Forensic Discussion." The name Philolexia is Greek for "love of discourse," and the society's motto is the Latin word Surgam, meaning "I shall rise." The society traces its roots to a literary society founded by Alexander Hamilton in the 1770s.

  • 愛言會(英語:Philolexian Society)是美國最古老的大學文學和辯論學會之一,也是哥倫比亞大學最古老的學生團體 。該協會成立於1802年,其宗旨是“提高其成員的演說、寫作和辯論的能力”。 Philolexia這個名字來自於希臘語,“philo-”是“愛”的意思,“lexi-”是“語言”的詞根。該學會的座右銘是拉丁語Surgam,意為“我將崛起”。該學會的歷史可以追溯到1770年代亞歷山大·漢密爾頓建立的文學學會。該學會的成員需要層層選拔評估才能被接納,許多著名的哥倫比亞校友均參加過該學會。 (zh)
