==Highlights of 2019==

This past year has been very successful for the ladies of the Epsilon Epsilon Chapter of Kappa Kappa Gamma. We started off the year by initiating 36 incredible women into our sorority. Our spring Initiation was especially meaningful this year because we hosted an alumna to be Initiated as well.

Our semester was filled with several sisterhood events such as going out to eat in various restaurants across Atlanta, making pottery, and adopting succulents. We have also donated to many charitable causes such as the Children's Healthcare of Atlanta, Refugee Revive, and Snack in a Backpack. The women of our chapter have also been leaders across campus within Kappa and in their other endeavors. Our chapter's Vice President of Academic Excellence, Sarah Samaranayake, created a LinkedIn group to connect current chapter members with chapter alumnae. Katherine Pitts, a member of our newest member class, developed her leadership skills and knowledge of chapter history at the Kappa Leadership Conference. Two of our members, Livia Severino and Alexa Miller, also lead cycling classes every week in our campus gymnasium. Two of our members, Jessica Schwenke and Maureen Schick, are student-athletes on the volleyball team and won the 2019 Volleyball UAA Championship. Another one of our chapter members, Hannah Lansberry, is an All-American track star. Many of our sisters were also orientation leaders, dancers in the AHANA dance company, and advocates for Greeks Go Green and Safe Greeks. In addition to being campus leaders, the sisters of our chapter are scholars. Our chapter also had the highest GPA of the spring and fall semester out of all on campus Greek organizations. Two of our newest members, Kimia Tabatabaei and Olivia Milloway, are Robert Woodruff Emory Scholars, totaling our chapter's count of Emory Scholars to seven, the highest of any campus Greek organization. Our Marshal, Penny McElwee, was 1 out of 18 college students from across the United States selected for the Beinecke Scholarship, which awards $34,000 towards graduate school. She and our Vice President Standards, Lauren Karr, were also awarded scholarships from the Kappa Kappa Gamma Foundation towards their collegiate expenses. Sarah Samaranayake was accepted to Emory's 3-2 cancer biology masters program, and Madeleine Jones and Nadia Paylor were accepted into nursing school. Jaylan Jacobs was accepted into the Rollins School of Public Health. Samantha Jaloza and Penny were also inducted into the United States' most prestigious and oldest honor society, Phi Beta Kappa. I am constantly inspired by our chapter women's ability to give so much of their time to our community while maintaining the highest degree of academic excellence.

'''Founders Day and Sesquicentennial'''

To celebrate Founders Day, our chapter council's education chair, Nadia Paylor, hosted a beautiful brunch in the Business School's atrium. Tens of alumna women joined our chapter for a morning of treats and celebration. We were delighted to see alumna women pinned for up to 50 years of membership in Kappa Kappa Gamma. We also read speeches celebrating the contribution of the women who founded our sorority.
