Highlights of 2020
==Highlights of 2020s==
2020 has been a trying year for Kappa Kappa Gamma, although the Beta Omicron chapter has met COVID-19 with resilience. While the first two months of the year were filled with the usual in person Initiation, Big/Little reveal, and events such as Glo Kappa and My Tie, students were sent home in mid-March as coronavirus emerged as a national and global crisis. As social distancing and quarantining became the norm, we all missed our sisters dearly and were anxiously waiting to return to campus.
In the fall, thanks to the leadership of President Jaida Maller, Tulane Kappa handled the transition with responsibility and reason. We adapted to social distancing protocols by canceling all social events, moving chapter online, hosting Sisterhood events such as cooking and exercise classes via Zoom, and having ‘to-go’ lunches every Thursday. Thankfully, we were able to fund raise for our philanthropy, Reading is Fundamental, with a digital Kappa Kollection this year as well. As our Chapter, our University, and the world as we know it have all changed immensely in the past year, Beta Omicron has prioritized the safety of the New Orleans community and has aimed for its members to be role-models within the Tulane community in regard to wearing masks and social distancing.
