Changes

The year 2011 was a very successful year for the Zeta Kappa chapter of Kappa Kappa Gamma. We started the year out with a great turn out at our spring recruitment. We initiated three new girls who have helped make our chapter stronger through their dedication, involvement, and willingness to take leadership roles, and really step up to make our chapter even better.

One of our biggest challenges we faced in the beginning of the fall semester was respect for one another. We all worked very hard to get back on the right track and gain respect back for ourselves, each other, and Kappa as a whole. Another challenge we faced in the previous year was raising money for our philanthropies. We didn't donate as much as we had in past years and not as many members actually attended Kappa Kidney Camp. We improved this greatly by having Kappa Kappa Grilled Cheese this fall, the money raised will be given to Kappa Kidney Camp for this coming summer. Also, we didn't donate any money to our second philanthropy Reading is Fundamental (RIF). We are in the process of formulating a plan to become more involved with RIF. Our cumulative GPA for the year 2011 was 3.12, we strive for 3.14. We plan to keep raising our GPA each year through hard work and dedication.

The year 2012 was a very successful year for the Zeta Kappa chapter of Kappa Kappa Gamma. In the spring we participated in the annual Dance Marathon fundraiser. Four of our members were dancers, six were moralers, seven were bikers, and two were on the core committee for the event, which helped raise money for the Children’s Miracle Network.

The Zeta Kappa Chapter of Kappa Kappa Gamma is a very strong chapter with emphasis on sisterhood. We try to build sisterhood with other chapters on campus. For example, we have invited chapters over to watch movies, play games, and eat dinner with us. Our chapter house is another aspect that we take pride in. The house looks like a rectangular dormitory; however it is so much more than that. It is a place for our sisters to come and feel like they are at home. We have a family room, a formal room, a computer lab, a study, and a kitchen. All of these rooms contribute to the overall feeling of a real home away from home. Our house, values, and members all contribute to who we are as a chapter and how strong the chapter has become.

The year of 2013 was very successful for the Zeta Kappa chapter of Kappa Kappa Gamma!
