Pi Deuteron was installing chapter for Epsilon Omicron Chapter at the University of California at Davis in February, 1975.
== ''The Kappa House'' ... ==
Pi was granted a charter in 1880 and closed by 1885.
 
Pi Deuteron was re-installed in 1897 and they had a three story house on Fulton Street that housed four members, owned by Mrs. Rising, the mother of members Alice Rising and Ruth Rising.
 
In the January 1898 issue of The Key, the corresponding wrote in her chapter letter “our chapter house is well established.
 
In 1912 a move was made to 2725 Channing Way, Pi’s own house at last.
 
In 1929, the chapter house was remodeled and refurnished downstairs.
 
In 1949, the former home of Professor Galey on Piedmont Avenue became the chapter house. It was renovated and a two-story wing added.
 
Jeanne Ley she said when she pledged as a freshman the house was on Channing then moved the following year to Piedmont. According to Jeanne, the house originally was a "lovely shingled and traditional Julia Morgan home", then they added the "hospital wing with that ugly grey floor, and sprayed cement over the beautiful shingles!"....evidently the remodel was not very popular. Until the remodel the girls all had meals at the I-House since there was no large kitchen or dining room. For the remodel the house was raised, the chapter room, dining room and kitchen added as the ground floor, and the entire structure moved forward on the lot to create the back courtyard. Jeanne said she remembers them doing all this from Christmas through the summer, and the girls moved back to Kappa in the fall!
