==Highlights of 2011 –2019:==
Highlights (scholarship, honors/awards, special events, philanthropy and service projects, etc.):
At convention, the Beta Upsilon chapter was awarded the Most Improved Academic Excellence award.
We had quite a few special events throughout the year. We hosted a Chapter Founder's day, Senior Luncheon, Sapphire Ball, Spring Formal, and Parent's Weekend. We had a lot of philanthropic involvement this year. Every year we host Kappa Klassic for all the fraternities on campus to raise money for Reading is Fundamental. We also participate in every fraternity philanthropy on campus to remain very active in Greek life. We participated in Relay for Life, Dance Marathon for Children's Miracle Network, Alzheimer's Walk, and Greek Clean-up.
Last year, our chapter'''Philanthropy:''' '''Chapter Convention Awards'''s goal was to get back to the foundation about what Kappa really means to us and try to better the chapter by following the bylaws. One of the major challenges we noticed was our policies and procedures were out of date. To overcome these challenges and we chose to reach out for help from chapter alumni. We also kept a strong chapter council to help lead the chapter. When Hurricane sandy came and wiped out a lot of cities and towns, we decided to help anyway we could. We donated toiletries, clothes, and other necessities to relief organizations in the New Jersey, New York area.
This past year we joined the Big 12 Conference which has given the campus more publicity and will hopefully start to improve attendance and give us the chance to promote Greek life, and help the Beta Upsilon chapter keep its 'Kappa Klassy' reputation. Overall, any sorority on campus we have do strong bond with. Not only within each other, but with everyone else in Greek life. We pride ourselves to not be known as the party girls, but strive to maintain the 'Kappa Klassy' reputation to peers and everyone on campus.
