→‎Highlights of 2011-2019:

(From chapter’s History Report: Scholarship, group honors/awards, traditions, special events, changes on campus or within chapter, overall nature of the chapter, chapter goals, challenges and how they were overcome, etc.)

'''Housing:''' ==2012==The Omicron chapter had a very successful 2012. We started off the year by informally recruiting 3 new girls. All three were initiated and love their new home at Kappa! Throughout the spring semester we held many fun activities such as Mother/Daughter Day, Monmouth Duo and Spring Formal. Our chapter also participated in Greek Week on campus, which we won!! This was a very fun week and brought us closer as a chapter and a Greek community.

We were also able to send one member to Leadership Academy this year, which has strongly benefited us as a chapter. Our experiences with the Leadership Consultants that were were lucky enough to receive were also beneficial.

'''PhilanthropyDuring the spring semester we had three girls abroad:'''two in Argentina and one in Tahiti. Throughout the year we also held many philanthropy events, these included a car wash, our signature Adoption Day, and a bake sale.

In the fall of 2012 Omicron chapter recruited 21 new girls! With this number we achieved quota plus one and extended the most bids of any house! Having had most of those girls initiate, we are now 51 active members strong. Many of these members have brought pride to Kappa through academic, athletic, musical, and other achievements.

'''Chapter Convention Awards:'''We are very proud of our girls and the way that we have handled some of our challenges. These challenges have included working with Simpson to receive a new meal plan, standards committee fighting chapter unity and household responsibility issues, and overall moral difficulties. For all of these challenges we have done our best to pull together as a house and overcome them!

Simpson College's campus received some major improvements during the year 2012, making it a very exciting time to be a student here! Thanks to current students, alumni, and friends of the college we have been lucky enough to receive new facilities and improvements to old facilities. Bill Buxton Stadium received a new track, astroterf field, and overall improvements. Cowles Fieldhouse was given a new basketball court. Pfieffer Dining Hall was remodelled and upgraded.

 

We received a new communications building and improvements to our art studios. Dirlam Lounge/Holy Grounds Coffee Shop also received a facelift. The most exciting improvement to campus was the completion of our new student center, Kent Campus Center. Kent was opened to students on homecoming and includes state of the art facilities. Kent is now home to staff offices, heath services, event spaces, and study places. Kent also offers students and staff new eating options, including Millies (a Starbucks serving coffee shop), Tyler's Grill, Au Bon Pain, and Red Mango. As students of Simpson, Omicron chapter has been very excited and thankful for these new facilities. We have continued to be active on campus and represent Kappa well out and about and in the classroom.
