→Highlights of 2021
When we elected our new chapter council at the end of the year, it was really great to see some of our newest members show interest and get voted into positions, such as Mimi Macintyre as Recruitment Chair, and Sam Conzelman as Treasurer.
==Highlights of 2021==
Our chapter has had a transformative year as we’ve followed our action plan to becoming a more unified and fulfilled chapter of Kappa Kappa Gamma.

We have all been partaking in serving our community in a multitude of ways such as philanthropic events and helping at local businesses. Our goals as a chapter include more communication with the national organization of Kappa, unifying our chapter leaders through open communication and teamwork, and to build a strong relationship with our university, St. Lawrence University.
Our chapter supports the National Eating Disorders Association because we believe that restrictive eating and other forms of disordered eating are extremely prevalent within a college environment, especially among women, and so we would like to draw attention and help to prevent eating disorders within our community.
This year, we participated in conversations concerning cultural appropriation during Halloween and attended a workshop where we identified and worked to prevent cultural appropriations in costumes. We are working to have a bias training workshop in the coming months and will continue conversations within our chapter concerning diversity, equity, and inclusions.
In the spring of 2021, we had recruitment and initiation online which was a different experience than any of us have had before. This semester, we were fortunate to have an in-person recruitment and initiation with the use of masks. We are fortunate that most of our members live in the house together, so can meet in person, but we took precautions when there were outside members visiting.
