,<metadesc>The six Founders history of the founders of Kappa Kappa Gamma.</metadesc>“On a little wooden bridge spanning a small stream that flows through the northeastern corner of the campus, two college girls one day held a schoolgirls’ conversation out of which grew the Kappa Kappa Gamma Fraternity,” Monmouth College President Thomas H. McMichael, who served as Monmouth College president from 1903-1936, once recalled. The idea of Kappa Kappa Gammais said to have been conceived in a conversation between two college women, Mary Louise (Lou) Bennett and Hannah Jeannette (Jennie) Boyd, on a wooden bridge over a stream on the Monmouth College campus in the late 1860s.
It was after their initial talk, they recruited three additional women including Anna Elizabeth Willits, Martha Louisa (Lou) Stevenson, and Susan (Sue) Burley Walker, to join in founding the fraternity.
