''Historically Speaking'' is a newsletter that is written by the Fraternity History Chairman. In days gone by, it was printed in ''The Key'' as a column with historical tidbits. It later incorporated questions that were frequently sent to the Fraternity Archivist and the Fraternity History Chairman. For a time the newsletter was mailed to all Chapter Education Chairmen and eventually was made available online. Check back frequently as we upload more back-issues of this interesting publication. Please note that the newsletters reflect the brands and styles of the time in which they were published.  == '''Alumnae''' ==<table><tr> <td>{{Infobox Historically Speaking|Name= Alumna Initiates|Topic= Alumnae Achievement Award Recipients|Date= April 2002|Author= Mary Ruddick Silzel|Download= [https://wiki.kkg.org/pages/File:AAA_April2002.pdf Download]}}</td> <td>{{Infobox Historically Speaking|Name= Alumna Initiates|Topic= Has the Fraternity ever initiated alumnae as the other NPC groups do today?|Date= November 2009|Author= Kay Smith Larson|Download= [https://wiki.kkg.org/pages/File:AlumnaInitiates.pdf Download]}}</td> <td>{{Infobox Historically Speaking|Name= Alumna vs Alumnae|Topic= When do we use Alumna and When do we use Alumnae?|Date= April 2011|Author= Joyce Wilson Carson|Download= [https://wiki.kkg.org/pages/File:AumnavsAlumnae_Apr2011.pdf Download]}}</td> <td>{{Infobox Historically Speaking|Name= Notable Kappas|Topic= Who are some notable Kappas?|Date= March 2011|Author= Joyce Wilson Carson|Download= [https://wiki.kkg.org/pages/File:NotableKappas_Mar2011.pdf Download]}}</td> </tr></table><table><tr> <td>{{Infobox Historically Speaking
