Our Chapter goal this year has been to foster mutual accountability between the house
and its members and for officers to be more effective to create an improved member
experience.
TCU's campus has stayed relatively the same from last year. Our on campus security has
increased and our Greek housing construction has been completed. Our bus loadng security
has been improving in overall attendance, but sometimes lacks a positive attitude towards
ritual and chapter meetings. We have been making significant changes to our Advisory
board, and those changes are still underway. The epsilon alpha chapter of Kappa KappaGamma is currently fulfilling an Action Plan to make Officers more effective in their roles. The Epsilon Alpha chapter was already a wonderful chapter but this year we took steps to increase involvement and moral. We have seen an increase in both areas and generally more excitement throughout the chapter. We are proud of the progress we have made and are looking forward to continuing to improve the chapter in 2019.
Chapter Philanthropy
Westcliff Elementary School, KKG Foundation, Reading is Fundamental
We started working with Westcliff last year due to a prior school not needing our help
incredibly friendly and easy to work with, and they are always looking for volunteers to
help with tutoring, book fair events, or host our Reading Is Key events.
The Epsilon Alpha chapter chooses Reading is Fundamental and Westcliff Elementary
because it allows our members to help kids in our community and beyond have access to
books. Also, our members are allowed to see the contributions they are making on a first
-
hand basis when they tutor at Westcliff elementary. We also choose the Kappa Kappa
Gamma Foundation because as a chapter we want to give back to the organization that has
already given so much to us. Kappa Kappa Gamma Foundation is extremely supportive of
the members of this great sorority so we believe it is very important to support the
Foundation.
We meet in a lecture hall on campus for regular meetings and in the house for formal meetings.
