		+	SIUE is going through lots of transitions with COVID. In the Spring of 2021, all of campus (and subsequently Theta Alpha chapter) was completely online. Fall of 2021, Siue has been in more of a hybrid situation, with some events and classes being in person and some being online. Kappa has tried to have in-person events where we can, like chapter, but some things we do host online for everyone’s convenience.
		+
		+	This chapter supports NAMI, the Kappa Kappa Gamma Foundation, and Ready Readers. The chapter supports these organizations because they give back to those that are truly in need and we want to help provide a positive future for those organizations through funding.
		+
		+	This year we had a lot of concerns about an in-person Founders Day so we kept our plan from last year and hosted an online celebration. We did the “which Kappa founder are you” quiz and then did a Kappa trivia competition.

	This first semester was a huge period of growth for us as a chapter as we established ourselves within the chapter and in leadership roles. Through the highs and lows we really started to mature with our sisters and enjoy some laughs along the way. We cannot wait to see what 2020 holds as a newly established chapter, and look forward to our future dear Kappa days.

 ● Composite picture for 2019-2020 was taken.
 ● New officers for the 2020 term held their first chapter.
 During the fall semester, SIUE welcomed a new fraternity on campus, Delta Tau Delta. Members of Kappa Kappa Gamma were able to attend the induction for the new members of Delta Tau Delta. Our chapter is busy crew, but enjoy supporting other Greek organizations. Theta Alpha is also encouraging its members to strive for academic excellence in order to bring up our overall GPA.
