Kappa Delta's Fall 2012 Semester in Review



Kappa Delta's 2012-2013 Freshmen Pledge Class

    A few of the KD's walk back to the sorority house after winning 2nd place in Lambda Chi's Watermelon Festival. Anna Barker, a freshman KD, was chosen as Watermelon Queen.

 Kappa Delta's Pancake Late Night Event is our philanthropy event that serves Prevent Child Abuse America. We raised $49,996 for PCAA this past year. 80% of the money we raised went to the Sally Kate Winters home, for which we are the primary source of funding. The remaining 20% went to PCAA as a national organization. 
    

     From getting our new pledge class in August to council transitions in November, it was a very busy semester! We had some sisters join national honor societies, serve MSU on the pom squad and cheer leading teams, receive positions on Student Association through Freshman Forum and Council, one become an Orientation Leader, and many others achieve various prestigious leadership positions in the Mississippi State University community. 
     On top of the work we did to raise money for PCAA; Kappa Delta hosted events for the Girl Scouts that included a skating party and a spa day, and also passed out confidence balloons to women on campus all in October and November. KD also helped to raise money for other sororities and fraternities philanthropies by participating in their various competitions such as Chi Omega's Limelight and Zeta Tau Alpha's Stepshow.
     We also just recently found out that we maintained 2nd place on the row in the highest grade point average as a chapter! 
     Though we do work very hard, we also find time to have our fun. We had date parties, football games, swaps, semi-formal, family Christmas, and plenty more events to keep us busy throughout the semester. 

Keep up with our chapter this Spring 2013 semester by checking this blog at the end of every month for updates on the great things we are accomplishing.
And as always....Go Confidently, Go KD.
