→Highlights of 2018
This year, Tulane University took a harder stance against underage drinking and the negative aspects of fraternity/sorority life. Every chapter on campus attended a 2 day leadership program before school started. The program was called IMPACT. At the program, Greeks on campus discussed the nature of our school and some of the issues that present itself with drinking mixed with hard schooling. The attendees agreed on a new rule not allowing freshmen to be at Greek events for the first week of school. Coupled with the new rule, the Beta Omicron chapter of Kappa Kappa Gamma made direct efforts to limit the amount of underage drinking by making stricter rules through risk management. BO also used multiple "education nights" at chapter to advise about drinking, mental health, and sexual assault.

2019 has been an incredible year for Kappa Kappa Gamma, Beta Omicron Chapter at Tulane. Under the leadership of our incredible President Mary Goldberg, traditions became solidified, the chapter became unified, and each challenge was met with maturity and regard for the chapter as a whole. Highlights included Kappa Kappa Girl Boss, which brought a panel of Tulane Kappa women and alumnae back to Tulane to give advice about beginning our careers. Additionally, Kamp Kappa was a fun way the chapter came together and raised money for our chapter philanthropy. VP of Standards Erika Kort also put together a sisterhood event at a roller rink, something the chapter had never done before!
The youngest PC has really come together and made demands on the upperclassman, like more sisterhood events and more ways to get involved. Also, the restructuring of Chapter Council as our District began piloting the new officer structure, was an undertaking that changed the chapter's overall nature. Getting to learn together about what it will look like was a positive process for all members.
Beta Omicron chose to support our Fraternity philanthropy, Reading is Fundamental, to help end childhood illiteracy and to be in sync with the rest of Kappa Kappa Gamma chapters across the country.
We celebrated Founders Day this year with Leadership Consultant, Sydney Hawekotte, ''Nebraska'', and had a cake at dinner. We are currently brainstorming ideas to celebrate Kappa's sesquicentennial in 2020!
