Eta Theta at Harvard University
Kappa Kappa Gamma is a national fraternity for women founded in 1870. The organization has 136 chapters at colleges and universities across North America and prides itself on friendship, leadership, and scholarship. Each chapter works to promote academic excellence, high ethical conduct, and a strong support system for its members. In addition, every Kappa Chapter is committed to completing meaningful community service, in particular as it relates to the Kappa Foundation and our national philanthropic partner, Reading Is Fundamental.
Kappa Kappa Gamma was founded at Harvard in 2003 and already boasts some incredibly successful alumnae. As a chapter, we hold sisterhood events such as dinners and weekend outings, host social events such as our annual Sapphire Ball, and provide academic support through study breaks and groups. In addition, we recently collected books for Children’s Hospital Boston and read on a regular basis at a local elementary school. Eta Theta Chapter is proud to include young women who come from all over the world and participate in a variety of activities, from varsity sports to public service to the arts. Last semester, our Chapter proudly raised its average grade point average to 3.55. Eta Theta Chapter adheres to the highest of standards. We are supported by our own board of alumnae advisors, numerous alumnae associations, and several regional and national directors. And, each Kappa event follows national guidelines to ensure that our members are both safe and happy.
Joining Kappa Kappa Gamma and now serving as Chapter President represents my most meaningful and rewarding experience at Harvard. Kappa is a part of every aspect of my life, from academics to friendship to public service. It is comforting to know that after graduation I can join one of approximately 300 alumnae associations around the world. The lifelong benefits of Kappa Kappa Gamma, from meaningful friendships to academic and financial support for those in need, are endless.
Please feel free to contact our chapter through this website with any questions that you might have. I encourage you to visit our national website, www.kappa.org for more information about Kappa and its resources. We also are always thrilled to connect with Kappa active members and alumnae. Lastly, if you are a young woman at Harvard not yet involved in Greek life, I would encourage you to consider registering recruitment, held annually in February. The process is a great opportunity to meet new friends, whether or not you eventually join a Greek organization.
Sincerely,
The President of the Eta Theta Chapter of Kappa Kappa Gamma
