Laura Castleberry - House Board\ ==Highlights of 2019== For Delta Sigma, the year 2019 has consisted of growth and involvement. Over 20 of our members participated in a campus show and philanthropy event called Varsity Revue. This spring, the second year of our philanthropy event, Kappa Cupcakes took place. Also in the spring, five members attended Kappa Leadership Council in Dallas, Texas. Five members received scholarships through the national Kappa scholarship and our chapter’s own. We also had one member attend Kappa Leadership Academy in Ohio this September. On bid day, 55 women ran home to Kappa Kappa Gamma.The new pledge class was initiated on September 28, 2019. Our fall season was full of activity. Countless hours were spent by members of all pledge classes on America’s Greatest Homecoming here at Oklahoma State. Kappa Kappa Gamma and their fraternity pairing (Sigma Phi Epsilon) took 2nd place overall in “Sweepstakes”. Fifteen members of PC 19 participated in a show and philanthropy event on our campus, “Freshman Follies”. Our first ever “Queso Jam with Kappa Gam” took place in October. Between philanthropy events, Delta Sigma raised $11,325. Throughout the year we had “Kappa Acts of Kindness” on our campus, handing out free Kind bars. For a hands on activity that supports Reading is fundamental, we also had groups of members volunteer at a local elementary school to read and take books to students once each semester. We look forward to what our next semester has to offer, as well as the year ahead for our newly installed council. Describe the recent changes on campus and describe the chapter’s overall nature. Overall, we feel that our chapter has been eager when it comes to involvement on campus. The efforts are kind yet powerful, as our school and its traditions are important to members of Delta Sigma. Multiple Sclerosis Why did the chapter choose this organization? We chose this organization due to the impact the disease has had on members of our chapter. We felt that having this as our local philanthropy would provide a way for members to connect, giving greater chances for overall involvement and outreach. Founders Day We had trivia with prizes, cupcakes and a balloon release. (photo attached in email) Sesquicentennial Celebration How has the chapter begun to celebrate Kappa's 150th anniversary? This year, we have celebrated with a balloon release and trivia.
