==Highlights 2013==
In the first year of the Eta Sigma chapter of Kappa Kappa Gamma at Chapman University took
two classes, the original Charter Class and in fall, the Alpha Class. When the chapter was colonized,
the Charter Class bonded and held a Brandy Melville sisterhood, their first formal, and prepared for
their first formal recruitment!
After fall recruitment, Eta Sigma welcomed the largest pledge class on campus, and began integrating them into the sisterhood. We participated in Gamma Phi Beta’s Airbands show, FIJI’s Turkey Bowl, and Kappa Alpha Theta’s KAT walk philanthropies, as well as putting on our own philanthropic event, Kappa Klassroom, where different greek organizations on campus competed in challenges to be named the “wisest owl.” We were part of the Orange County Breast Cancer Walk, and on a smaller scale to complete 15 required community service hours, sisters
volunteered at a local elementary school and at another organization, Operation School Bell.
Since we have been a new chapter, one of the main objectives we’ve focused on is creating lists of words we would like associated with us as a whole, such as classy, genuine, and diverse. We also conducted our second full cycle of elections and elected a new chapter council! Finally, we were a part of Greek Week at Chapman, held a semi formal, and are looking forward to Spring Recruitment! !!!
Our chapter itself has been a change on campus, as we colonized in the Spring of 2013, and since
then we have focused on building our sisterhood as well as integrating ourselves into campus. Eta
Sigma is a diverse, supportive, and exciting chapter to be a part of, and since colonization has
participated in most Greek life events as well as philanthropic endeavors off campus.
In May 2013, chapter members Kira Weiner and Annaliese Baker were honored as two of the ten freshmen to receive Chapman’s Outstanding First-Year Award.
