==2012==
The Zeta Tau Chapter of Kappa Kappa Gamma had a great year in 2012. We began with a very successful recruitment in early January. In the spring, we initiated 33 excellent new members into the chapter. This was a great source of pride for our chapter. Our members continue to be actively involved all over Washington and Lee'''Housing:''' s campus in extracurricular and service-oriented activities.
Our members excelled on varsity athletic teams, as Bonner Leaders, as Johnson Scholars, and as leading members of a variety of campus organizations. The Executive Committee, Fancy Dress Committee, Mock Convention, Habitat for Humanity, Relay for Life, Student Recruitment Committee, Panhellenic Council, and Kathekon all benefit from leaders and members who belong to Kappa Kappa Gamma.
In the spring, we hosted a successful concert that benefitted the charity "One Love" and involved participants from all over campus. In the fall, we hosted a fun event with first-year women to raise money for Reading is Fundamental. Additionally, we enjoyed a number of sisterhood and social events, including a spring formal in Charlottesville, VA, and a fall formal in Charlottesville, VA. Our chapter continues to thrive and maintain a strong presence on Washington and Lee's campus. We look forward to growing as a chapter in the coming year.
Greek life continues to be extremely popular on Washington and Lee's campus. Alpha Delta Pi, the most recently colonized sorority at W&L, is our next door neighbor. Having an additional sorority on campus has continued to promote Greek Life on campus, as well as make recruitment more competitive. In the past year, we have seen many changes to W&L's Panhellenic Council, which has had a positive impact on all of the sororities; we have a new head of Greek Life. Panhellenic Council is currently working to improve sorority life in ways like discussing updating W&L'Philanthropy:''' '''Chapter Convention Awards:'''s recruitment process.
'''Nature of our chapter:'''
Our members participate in a number of varsity athletic teams including the equestrian, soccer, field hockey, and tennis teams. We have members who participate both in the dance company and other dance organizations on campus. Our members are involved as student tour guides, volunteers, and members of organizations across campus. They continue to pursue academic excellence. Our involvement leads to a strong and positive presence on W&L's campus. Our presence really reflects the united and caring nature of our chapter.
