The Greater Lafayette Aquarium Society (GLAS) was a hobby society that began in June of 1953 and was dedicated for those who were interested in aquarium keeping. Members would share knowledge, ideas, and tips they learned about the art of aquarium keeping at monthly meetings. A newsletter, "Looking Through the GLAS", was sent out each month to its members and consisted of information such as articles about fish, the previous month's meeting minutes, fish that were for sale, and announcements about upcoming events.
