Gamma Phi Betas First Greeks To Be Given Name Of Sorority
This is one of a series of UDK articles on organized houses.
The word sorority, meaning sisterhood, was first coined by Dr. Frank Smalley, faculty member of Syracuse university, especially for members of Gamma Phi Beta.
Until that time all women Greek organizations had been referred to as raternities.
Gamma Phi Beta was founded by four women students at Syracuse university, Syracuse, N.Y., with the help of Dr. E. O. Haven; former hancellor of the university, on Nov. 1, 1874.
The KU chapter, Sigma, under the leadership of Helen Rhoda Hoopes, former faculty member, was granted a charter on Oct. 9, 1915. It was the ninth sorority at this university.
The present house at 1393 West Campus road was completed in 1923. The Gamma Phi's are now planning two-story addition on the south-west corner of the house.
Mrs. Ralph Park is beginning her fourth year as housemother to Sigma chapter.
Each year the Gamma Phi's give a Christmas scholarship and a scholarship in honor of Helen Rhoda foopes to women who need financial help at the University.
