==Highlights of the 1990s==
The Delta Xi’s worked hard to get their name out campus and received the 1997 Golden Key for outstanding achievement. A popular philanthropy that started in 1997 was the Kappa Kappa Gong Show to benefit Children’s Cancer Foundation.
Overall greek enrollment was down in the mid-nineties with a Panhellenic ceiling of just 45 members in the early nineties. One year after a large senior class had graduated, Kappa's numbers were significantly lower than the other houses entering fall rush that year. As a way to look larger on campus than they really were, sisters wore letter shirts every single day around campus so that it looked like there were Kappas everywhere you went. To keep from wearing the same shirts all the time, sisters washed the shirts every night at the house and traded shirts in order to extend their wardrobes. The trick worked, as Kappa's pledge class that fall was one of its largest. In the late nineties Kappa grew in size and so did the rest of the Panhellenic sororities and the chapter was 47 members by the end of the decade.
The late nineties also brought changes in terms to familiar sorority events. In 1997 Big and Little sisters became key sisters, and families became Kores, and Pledges became New Members. In 1998 Rush became Formal Membership Recruitment (and Informal Membership Recruitment) Panhellenic-wide.
