==Highlights of 2017==
the Delta Phi chapter of Kappa Kappa Gamma at Bucknell
University was extremely involved and active throughout the university and the community. This
chapter believed it was essential to go to other greek life philanthropic events, such as raising
money for domestic violence awareness and Big Brothers Big Sisters of America. Along with
this, members also worked in our community’s garden and soup kitchen, helping those in need.
In September, the Delta Phi chapter of Kappa Kappa Gamma at Bucknell University welcomed
37 new members. These new members have become very involved within the philanthropic
events, and have several ideas for the future of the Delta Phi chapter.
Describe the recent changes on your campus and describe the overall nature of your chapter.
Bucknell University has become a very welcoming and inclusive campus. The university
now has gender neutral bathrooms, rallies, and open discussions about the social, academic and
spiritual life at Bucknell. Due to recent events regarding greek life throughout the country,
Bucknell has had several round table discussions about making greek life safer and open to
everyone. Several Delta Phi members attend these meetings and speak freely about the changes
they wish to see. This displays that Kappa Kappa Gamma is passionate about positive changes,
and this chapter wants their voices heard in the Bucknell Community.
Chapter Philanthropy:
What organization(s) has your chapter historically/traditionally raised money for, or donated hours to, in
your community?
The Delta Phi chapter historically raises money for Reading is Fundamental and has
donated hours by going to local libraries and elementary schools to read to children. This
chapter raises money through the two main philanthropy events, Kappa Klassic and Kappa
Kisses.
Why did your chapter choose this organization(s) to support?
Our chapter continues to support Reading is Fundamental because as educated leaders,
we believe reading is an essential key to becoming an influential member of society. We believe
every child should get that support and knowledge and have the resources to do so. Therefore,
we are passionate about donating books and money in order to make an impact.

The Delta Phi chapter holds our weekly meetings in the Art Building on Bucknell’s

specific room we use has plenty of seating and a large screen in which we can play videos,
slideshows and display important reminders for our members.
Oral History
Are there any current members, alumnae or advisers from your chapter that you recommend for the
Fraternity’s oral history project? We are looking for Kappas with stories to tell – funny chapter memories,
great professional achievement stories, heartwarming stories of how Kappa has helped them, etc.
