==Highlights of 2011-2020==
A new tradition was begun in 2011 when we held our first annual Monmouth Duo picnic with the recently colonized Maryland Gamma chapter of Pi Beta Phi, wearing tee shirts especially designed with an interlacing Kappa key and Pi Phi arrow on the back. We continued to excel in academics with the top campus GPA of 3.45.
In Spring 2012 the chapter continued to excel in recruitment, surpassing quota of 45 by welcoming 47 new members.
The sisters of Eta Epsilon chapter began the year with recruitment in February and welcomed the Chi new member class shortly afterwards. With the addition of the Chi class the chapter grew to approximately 130 active members. Following recruitment the sisters engaged in a number of social activities including sisterhood bonding events for the new members, three date parties, and send off luncheon for the soon to be graduating seniors. The luncheon provided the perfect time for the sisters to reflect on the many ways being a Kappa had enriched their university experience. In addition the sisters continued their academic and philanthropic pursuits. The chapter’s combined GPA for the spring semester was a 3.41. Spring philanthropy included continued work at Barclay elementary school as well as Kappa participation in events such a Dance Marathon and Relay for Life.
Our chapter has expanded greatly in the last year and has really succeeded in establishing itself around campus as an involved and proactive organization as seen by our strong turn out for Greek week and our high level of involvement in other on campus organizations. We are still a tightly knit group despite our rapid growth and the sister remain focused on academics and philanthropy: Relay for Life, volunteering at the Barclay School for RIF, American Cancer Society, Maryland Food Bank, Maryland SPCA.
==Highlights of 2013==
During 2013, Eta Epsilon chapter of Kappa Kappa Gamma was the recipient of the Province Standards Award. Eta Epsilon continued their tradition of receiving the Highest GPA Award in chapter rankings at the Johns Hopkins University with a 3.43 in the Spring Semester and a 3.49 in the Fall Semester. The sisters additionally received 2nd place in the Greek Week event of Powder Puff. The Philanthropy event of our Kappa Kook-Off continued to be very successful and raised money for the Kappa Kappa Gamma Foundation and Reading is Fundamental.
2013 Recruitment included the highest number of Potential New Members going through formal Recruitment to date at the Johns Hopkins University. This affected all sororities on campus in accommodating these large numbers during the recruitment process. The Eta Epsilon Chapter enjoyed a successful recruitment gaining its chapter a large class of 56 New Members. The sisters of Eta Epsilon held a new philanthropy event called Kappa Kickball to raise funds and support the local community. They also started a new tradition of accepting children’s books as admission to Kappa events or monetary donations. All the children’s books and proceeds were donated to Baltimore’s Barclay Elementary School. In 2013, there was a great dedication and focus on philanthropy. Eta Epsilon sisters volunteered for Dance Marathon, Relay for Life, President’s Day of Service, Freshman Move-in/Orientation, Tutorial Project, Kappa Kook-off, Kappa-Kickball, children’s book game during Spring Fair, and continued working on literacy skills with students at Barclay Elementary.
