Academics
Joining a sorority in college is a life-changing experience, but garnering an education is the top priority for Kappa. This is why each chapter is expected to maintain academic standards equal to or higher than their university’s or college’s all-sorority GPA. Additionally, each chapter establishes a GPA requirement for active members.
If a Kappa struggles academically, we help her through it. The Academic Excellence Team meets with her to craft an improvement plan using study tactics and time management. We want each sister to leave college with what they came for: a degree.
Library study rooms, which we reserve for Sunday nights after chapter and the weeks surrounding finals, give girls a quiet place to study.
Our chapter also uses an Owl Pal program, pairing a new member up with an older member in a similar major/field of study. This allows girls to study together and get advice related to their major.
We host an annual alumnae networking event, Keyed-In, which allows collegiate sisters to meet and connect with sisters who are five, ten, or twenty years into their careers! Many sisters find internships, jobs and mentors through this event. This year, Keyed-In centered around a panel of professionals offering advice on everything from leveraging sorority experience in the workplace to how to ask for a raise.
