Sigma Kappa Takes Pride In Its Philanthropic Projects
From its beginning Sigma Kappa has undertaken some form of national philanthropy.
KU's Xi chapter joins the 59 other chapters in contributing to the support of the Maine Sea Coast Mission at Bar Harbor, and the American Farm School at Thessaloniki. Greece.
The mission project in Maine was chosen because the sorority's five founders were all natives of that state.
Sigma Kappa, one of the oldest sororites in the nation, was founded at Colby College, Waterville, Maine, in November 1874.
Xi chapter was instituted at the University April 1, and 2, 1913, after existing for a little over a year as a local sorority, Delta Psi. A special honor was the participation in the first initiation ceremonies of one of the founders, Ida Fuller Pierce, who was the personal guide and friend of Delta Psi, and directly
responsible for its origin.
Delta Psi had established a home of its own at 1247 Ohio street in 1912, renting the house for three years. It then moved to 1245 Oread avenue and bought the house in 1916.
Outgrowing this residence Xi built a house at 1625 Edgehill and moved into it in October, 1923, a little more than 10 years after the chapter's establishment at KU.
Xi's traditions include celebration of Founder's day, Homecoming weekend, spring formal, senior breakfast and a dinner given for members whose names appear on the chapter honor roll. An incentive to scholarship is the trophy given annually to the freshman making the highest grades.
Benjamin Holman, journalism senior from Bloomfield, N.J., has been elected president of Kappa Alpha Psi social fraternity.
Other elected officers are Freddie Anderson, fine arts sophomore, vicepresident; Adolphus Toliver. College sophomore, secretary; Solomon Pleasant, College junior, treasurer; Cornelius Reed, College junior, sergeant-at-arms.
George Stewart, College sophomore, assistant sergeant-at-arms; Thomas Fox, pharmacy senior, dean of pledges; and Harold Piper, graduate student, house steward.
