Founded in 1851, Westminster College is a private, selective, coeducational, residential, undergraduate college with a curriculum based on the liberal arts with an emphasis on developmental experience. The College is dedicated to teaching excellence and an education centered on key values (integrity, fairness, respect, and responsibility) that prepare our graduates to become leaders of character.

Throughout this decade, Zeta Zeta began its philanthropic efforts during recruitment. Current members, along with potential New Members, stuffed teddy bears for the children at the Missouri School for the Deaf. Each bear came with a birth certificate and a special message written on the back. Another time they assembled back-to-school pencil boxes filled with pencils, crayons, stickers, and other school items for the children. Each month the chapter made small crafts for each elementary age child at the School. It was always an exciting time and the children were always very happy to see the Kappas.
