 A sophomore pledge day and the careful issuing of invitations to women whose scholarship, personalities and abilities were well known, accounted for this unvarying affirmative. The Fraternity was well aware of Barnard’s superiority. Kappa’s emphasis on high scholarship, positive action and alumna progress was received by Barnard members as if scholarship, action and progress were the most natural demands in the world.

 At a faculty meeting May 26, 1913, a resolution was made stating that for the three-year term starting October 1913, no society at Barnard of which the organization, the emblems and the rites were in any way secret, and which had national affiliations, should be allowed to elect new members.
 Anti-fraternity feeling caused the chapter to abandon the idea of becoming a local group. In the spring of 1914 Barnard’s fraternities proposed certain reforms within their groups but the petition was refused by the faculty.
 On April 25, 1916, the Barnard chapter announced that, although it was convinced of the advantages of fraternities, “we do not wish to reorganize … under the system in force three-years ago,” and on May 29 a committee recommended the adoption of a resolution against reorganization. This was the end of Greek social groups at Barnard. The Fraternity mourned, “As a chapter she had always borne the Kappa standards high, and in all matters … served faithfully.”
