'''The Early Years'''
 
The seven members of the local, Kappa Delta, at West Virginia University in Morgantown were pioneers. They conceived the idea of petitioning a national fraternity even though there was much opposition and indifference to fraternities for women by the faculty.
Progress was slow, but with the aid of three resident Kappas, they finally succeeded in getting a charter from Kappa Kappa Gamma.
'''Housing'''
 
In the fall of 1907, Beta Upsilon attempted to find a permanent meeting place. A dormitory room was rented for $10 a month, but proved to be too expensive, so the chapter met in the homes of town girls.
