	Zeta Phi continued to hold their meetings in rooms rented from the University, as they have in past years. The Zeta Phi chapter has never owned a house, lodge, apartment or suite. An off-campus storage unit is rented and maintained by the House Chair. Members may live together in University housing if they so choose.

		+	==Highlights of 2015==
		+	Zeta Phi members, as usual, have collected many awards, scholarships, and other achievements
		+	this year. Vivian Mo '18 won 3rd place Hardware, Facebook's Favorite Hack at HackPrinceton this
		+	fall. Regina Zeng'18 was awarded "Outstanding work by a Freshman in Theater" by the Princeton
		+	University Department of Theater, Lewis Center for the Arts. Nicole Neville '18 was awarded the
		+	Cape Cod Association Scholarship. Kate Maffey '16 was awarded the John Page Award for
		+	leadership excellence in ROTC, Iron Mike Award for best physical fitness score in the battalion,
		+	82nd Airborne Division Scholarship, ASIS Chapter Scholarship, and an FSPA Scholarship. Summer
		+	Ramsay-Burrough '17 was awarded the Leach Summer Scholars Fellowship to fund her summer
		+	chemistry research on nickel catalysts. Samone Blair '18 received the Judith Laffan Memorial Prize
		+	from the NES department for exemplary work in elementary Arabic. Sophia Robertson-Lavelle '16
		+	was named an American Chemical Society Scholar. Allyson Brown '18 was awarded a scholarship
		+	by the Santa Barbara Scholarship Foundation and while working as a camp counselor this summer,
		+	was also awarded the Rookie of the Year for teaching new subjects and dealing with tough
		+	situations. Caroline Tucker '17 served as President of the Princeton Glee Club and Opera
		+	Company. Valerie Wilson '18 received a $4600 grant to intern at an arts organization in Kampala,
		+	Uganda over the summer; she also presented her writing seminar research at the Quin Morton '36
		+	Freshman Research Conference. Kat Giordano '18 was elected the tour chair and events chair of the
		+	Princeton University Wildcats. Clare Jeong '18 won Junior National Championships and competed
		+	in Poland in the Junior World Championships for speed skating. Safeeyah Quereshi '16 was named
		+	Arthur Liman Public Interest Undergraduate Summer Fellow , which funded her internship at the
		+	Midwestern Office of the US Commission on Civil Rights; she is also a Center for the Study of
		+	Religion Fellow and was awarded the Henrietta S. Treen Scholarship.
		+
		+	One of our goals was more active philanthropy work within the chapter. We participated in a
		+	philanthropy event at Fruity Yogurt, a local bubble tea and froyo shop, where a percentage of all of
		+	our orders went to the Kappa Kappa Gamma Foundation. We also packed bags of cookies for
		+	TASK, a local food kitchen, for Thanksgiving.
		+
		+	This year, we have faced some financial issues and some problems with member retention. We've
		+	worked hard to ameliorate these problems, and our 2015 recruitment season was very successful
		+	and has renewed the energy in our chapter.
		+
		+	Campus climate has been slightly tenser than usual with protests and discussions centered around
		+	race and diversity, attracting nationwide media coverage. However, the chapter has been a refuge
		+	of comfort, acceptance, and friends. Members have commented on the supportive, positive, and
		+	welcoming environment they find in Kappa. For many, Kappa is a source of light in our campus
		+	community. Our successful recruitment season has reinvigorated our members and brought us
		+	closer together as a chapter. Princeton's rigorous schedule can be stressful but many sisters have
		+	noted that Kappa is a destressing and refreshing aspect of their campus life.
		+
		+	Chapter Philanthropy:
		+
		+	What organization(s) has your chapter historically/traditionally raised money for, or donated hours to, in
		+	your community?
		+	Our chapter raises money for the Kappa Kappa Gamma Foundation and Reading is Fundamental, our national organizations. Within the community, our philanthropic commitments change as various organizations express their needs. This past year we have donated hours to TASK (Trenton Area Soup Kitchen).
		+
		+	Why did your chapter choose this organization(s) to support?
		+	We chose to support TASK because they needed food and snacks for Thanksgiving. We thought this was the perfect opportunity to give back to our community, give thanks, and show our appreciation for our wonderful community.

	Increased philanthropic involvement, successful leadership, and a variety of meaningful sisterly social activities are just several indicators of growth that Zeta Phi has seen throughout 2013. Overall, the future of Zeta Phi looks very promising, and the Chapter Council is very optimistic about the direction in which Zeta Phi is heading.

		+
		+	==Highlights of 2014==
		+
		+	Zeta Phi members collected a large number of achievements both on- and off-campus during 2014. Stephanie Rigizadeh was awared the Sue Fream Scholarship, an award that covers one member's dues for an entire year. Other members were involved in a variety of other activities: Katherine Pogrebniak '14 was selected as valedictorian of the Princeton University Class of 2014; Joan Cannon '15 won an Ivy League Championship as a member of the Princeton Women's Tennis Team and was elected president of the Princeton University Geosciences Society; Miranda Rehaut '16 helped to campaign for Wendy Davis in Texas; Sofia Suarez '16 was project leader on two trips to Kenya to implement a rain water cachement system at a primary school in Muchebe village; Arianna Lanz '17 was awarded the Bell-Burnell prize in Physics; Samantha Lee '15 was elected president of the Princeton Student Chapter of the Institute of Electronics and Electrical Engineers; Divya Krishnan '16 was elected president of the campus dance group Naacho; Sophia Robertson-Lavalle '16 was named an American Chemical Society Scholar.
		+
		+	Our chapter goal of continuing philanthropic involvement also continued. Staying true to Kappa Kappa Gamma's emphasis on literacy, one philanthropic project was aiding in a Read Record Replay project. Read Record Replay is a group whose focus is on teaching English overseas. Members also participated in a panhellenic Powder Puff game, the proceeds of which were given to charity. In addition, a charity night was held at a local Lilly Pulitzer retailer, where a portion of all purchases was donated to the Kappa Kappa Gamma Foundation. The chapter also beta tested a polling app, which raised money for philanthropic causes.
		+
		+	Recently the panhellenic community has become much more unified, as evidenced by the increase in panhellenic events. A panhellenic Powder Puff football game was held among all the sororities, the proceeds of which were donated to charity. Another panehellenic unity event was held at a local ice cream shop, where a portion of purchases made by Greek community members was donated to charity. There has also been promising discussion of adding another chapter to the Greek community, as the high interest in recruitment has indicated there might be enough women to sustain another Greek organization.
		+
		+	Zeta Phi continued to hold their meetings in rooms rented from the University, as they have in past years. The Zeta Phi chapter has never owned a house, lodge, apartment or suite. An off-campus storage unit is rented and maintained by the House Chair. Members may live together in University housing if they so choose.
