The organizations that the chapter chose to support other than Reading is Fundamental were those close to our sisters’ hearts, including the House of Ruth and its mission to house and protect victims of intimate partner violence and their children, as well as the time-specific disaster events of Hurricane Harvey and the Las Vegas shooting.

==Highlights of 2018==
 
 
 
In 2018, the Eta Epsilon chapter continued its excellence in the areas of academic excellence, philanthropy, sisterhood, and integrity.
 
 
 
Our spring 2018 chapter GPA was 3.66, the highest of all Panhellenic organizations on campus and higher than the all-women GPA at Johns Hopkins University. At Kappa’s national convention, our chapter was awarded the National Award for Most Improved Academic Excellence, for which our chapter is incredibly proud.

For philanthropy, our chapter both hosted and participated in multiple events throughout the year, including our events Kones for Kappa, Kappacino, and Kappa Klassic, all in support of Reading is Fundamental, raising a total of $3700 throughout the year.
 
 
 
Additionally, our chapter had teams that participated in other organizations’ philanthropic events on campus, including Kappa Alpha Theta’s Rock the Casa, Alpha Phi’s 5k memorial race, Dance Marathon, among others.
 
 
 
Our chapter was also enriched through programming on many topics, including a presentation from Johns Hopkins’ sexual assault response unit, active listening & empathy training, sustainability, a resume workshop, and diversity and civic discourse discussion. Through these presentations, our members grew not only closer as sisters but also individually as scholastic, responsible women on the Hopkins campus.
 
 
 
In 2018, our chapter strove to embody female empowerment in multiple aspects. One way we did this through addressing the pervasive problem of sexual assault on college by raising awareness within the chapter through a presentation by Johns Hopkins' Sexual Assault Resource Unit, which aimed to teach our sisters how to communicate about sensitive issues concerning sexual assault in a way that empowers and supports survivors.
 
 
 
Additionally, each week we would highlight female achievement through "Kween of the Week", which was a spotlight on someone who was an especially inspiring female role model. Some spotlights included: Kirsten Gillibrand, Dr. Christine Blasey Ford, and even some of our own chapter members who went above and beyond for our philanthropy events.

Also, our council strove to connect our sisters to resources for improving mental health, including informing our chapter about the counseling center's services on campus and participating in active listening & empathy training.
 
 
 
Furthermore, our chapter aimed to support other Panhellenic women on campus by attending PAJH (Panhellenic Association at Johns Hopkins) events and fostering a more positive recruitment environment. One focus within the PAJH community this year was to be more inclusive of the multicultural organizations on campus when discussing recruitment and making sure to encourage PNMs to consider all of the wonderful organizations on campus.
 
 
 
Overall, in 2018 our chapter strove to be more inclusive, supportive, and empowering to our sisters and other members of our campus community.
