==Highlights of the 1990's==
As the new decade arrived the chapter did a complete re-design of their recruitment plan. The Rush Chair, Kathleen Thomas, and her committee spent the summer designing a new rush manual for the chapter. Their goal was to Search Out Unique Pledges, or SOUP. The chapter pledged 28 new members.
As a bit of unique circumstance happened, there were 2 women who were initiated ahead of the Fall Recruitment class. One had been abroad when her pledge class was initiated, and the second was a transfer from another school This gave the chapter a great 'dress rehearsal' for the initiation of the 28 new members in the Fall Pledge Class..
Social Events included a Monday "movie night" at the Kappa House, a St Patrick's day party, a BBQ with Tri-Delta, and a Formal with the theme of "A nigh in the Tropics".
As a chapter the members worked with Habitat for Humanity creating homes for low income families.
The chapter continued to build enthusiasm for chapter events and saw a continued increase in participation in Kappa!
In 1991 the chapter was happy to see renovations to their chapter house! The kitchen was updated with new appliances and a new floor. A bathroom was added to the second floor.
Recruitment added a new skit with a western theme and the chapter welcomed 31 new members on bid day. There was pressure from the College Trustees about the Greek System. Kappa worked in a pro-active way to show that women can make positive changes to make the system safe for all members of the organizations on campus. Kappa worked with other greeks to help the Trinity Child Care Center.
Kappa had the highest GPA of all greeks, and higher then the all women campus average!!
==Highlights of the 2000's==
Zeta Theta has a busy fall each year as Sisters return from abroad and are welcomed into the chapter once again. They then jump into recruitment where around 80 women hope to join a sorority. Many wonderful candidates but only a limited number of spots. Happily 26 very qualified New members joined Zeta Theta with great enthusiasm. The chapter works hard with the many transitions of new and returning sisters, and focuses on making all feel welcome.
Community service is very important to the chapter. They created the Trinity College Relay for Life, a 24 hour event to raise money for the American Cancer Society.
The entire chapter participates in Trinity DO IT DAY to help with various projects in the Hartford Community. Members supported the Breast Cancer Walk as well as Halloween on Vernon.
The chapter balances having fun with working hard. They emphasize the importance of Community Service.
With so many busy women, and women traveling abroad scheduling of meeting times and keeping all involved is a challenge. Flexibility and cooperation is the key. Standards has instituted an attendance policy that allows members ways to make up missed meetings or events which helps to keep everyone up to date.
