==Highlights of 2018==
Zeta Chi started off the year with Spring Recruitment! We welcomed 35 new members to the chapter! This has been one of the biggest new member classes, the Alpha Phis. We had many sisterhood events that united the chapter as a whole, including a sisterhood hike, apple picking, movie night, flower pot decorating, an ice cream social and a holiday party. We also supported our sisters that were in the Marist College Dance Ensemble shows in the spring and fall. The chapter has participated in many philanthropy events, such as the Polar Plunge, St. Jude's Up Till Dawn, and bi-‐weekly reading buddies at the Poughkeepsie Children's Home. We also held our annual RIF events which included a movie night, a newlywed game and the RIF Carinval. The chapter also donated money from the loose change jars to the Kappa Kappa Gamma Foundation. Zeta Chi also celebrated 25 years with a special Founder's Day event. We ended the year by celebrating our chapter with the annual Sapphire Ball!

Zeta Chi began the year with our Spring recruitment! We welcomed 35 new members into the chapter! The new pledge pledge class is named the Alpha Chis.
We had many bonding experiences this year including the sister events such as apple picking, board game night, a picnic by the Hudson river and many more. Additionally, we supported our sisters that are in Singers as well as Dance Ensemble. On April 6th, the Alpha Chis were initiated as official sisters of Kappa Kappa Gamma.
At the end of the Spring semester, we had a Senior Send off brunch for all of the graduating sisters in our chapter.
For Philanthropy, we raised money for RIF by donating children's books as well as creating a hot cocoa sale to donate to Reading is Fundamental. We also had reading buddies throughout the Spring semester. In January, we had a karaoke RIF event where each sorority and fraternity donated children's books to the local library.
This past year we had a few sisters attend the Leadership Conference as well as a sister attend the Leadership Academy.
In the Fall semester, we had our 150th Founders Day. Our chapter celebrated by holding a brunch for the chapter with photos and tokens of our chapters history.
For our 2020 celebration of Founders Day, we will hopefully have a larger group of attendance and welcome more alumni who can come to next year's Founders Day! The Zeta Chi Chapter ended the year with their annual Sapphire Ball!
