On Friday, January 22nd, we held a colorful themed bid day where everyone was decked out in blue and pink kappa shirts to welcome the Omicron class. Then, on March 6th, we formally initiated the Omicron class over zoom. During the following weeks,
the new members and actives in Kappa got to go on key sister dates. Some were in person, with COVID guidelines, and some were online. That same week, all of the members of the Eta Rho chapter tuned into zoom and had a virtual exchange with the men of AEPi.

As Cal Poly SLO opened up to allowing in person classes, we also were allowed to do modified in-person recruitment. So, we kicked off returning to school through spirit week which was a week filled with sisterhood, breakfast burritos, dressing up, painting banners, and preparing for formal recruitment.
