Beta Nu Chapter, The Ohio State University Founded October 12, 1888 The Ohio State University established in 1870, Columbus, Ohio 2,870 initiates (as of June 2013) 2012 In the past calendar year, the Beta Nu chapter of Kappa Kappa Gamma has grown in many different respects. For instance, we have become a more unified chapter, developed a stronger Chapter Council, and have grown our presence on campus. We have started new philantropy events such as Kappa King Pin, a bowling tournament, as well as lending our hands to foundations such as the Ronald McDonald House. At Convention, Beta Nu was honored with admission into the Adelphe Society. During this Presidential election, we had women volunteering at the polls, rallies, etc. Quite a few women in the chapter actually worked directly with campaigns for different parties. Changes The Ohio State University is a constantly changing and growing campus. This past year, two well-known dorms, Park and Stradley Hall, were conjoined and reopened as one, single dorm. Steeb and Smith Halls are currently undergoing similar construction to join the two buildings together. A new dorm on 10th Avenue was also opened to house primarily first year students. The South Oval is still under construction pending completion of a project in which geothermal wells will be installed. The OSU Medical Center was renamed in honor of Les Wexner. It is hard to summarize a sisterhood or a dynamic like that of our chapter. A collection of vastly unique and different individuals, we somehow fit perfectly as a whole. We have athletes, including members on the Ohio State soccer team, equestrian team, synchronized swimming teams, etc. We have musicians, fashion designers, political activists, and humanitarians. The easiest way to describe the overall nature of the Beta Nu chapter of Kappa Kappa Gamma is to say that we are a group of extremely diverse women who compliment eachother in the best of ways. Throughout my time as a Kappa in undergrad, I have been pushed, encouraged, and supported by my sisters in Kappa Kappa Gamma in ways I could have never imagined. They have forced me to become a more well rounded person and to appreciate our individual differences. Beta Nu creates women out of girls, sisters out of friends, and confidants out of strangers.
