Zeta Chapter of Kappa Delta House Corporation P.O. Box 1880 Tuscaloosa, AL 35403-1880 Address Ser vice Requested The Katydid @kappadeltaua T his past March, Kappa Delta, the first sorority established on The University of Alabama's campus, celebrated an incredible milestone—120 years of sisterhood, leadership, and service. Founded in 1904 in the basement of the UA President's Mansion, our Chapter has been an integral part of UA's Greek system and has upheld a proud legacy of empowering women both on campus and beyond. Over the past 120 years, the women of Kappa Delta have consistently demonstrated a commitment to their values of friendship, personal integrity, academic excellence, and social responsibility. From fostering a strong sense of community to spearheading philanthropic efforts—particularly their longstanding support of organizations like the Girl Scouts of the USA and Prevent Child Abuse America—Kappa Delta has left an indelible mark on the University and the surrounding Tuscaloosa community. As the sorority celebrates this special anniversary, Kappa Delta reflects on its enduring impact while looking forward to a future of continued growth, leadership, and dedication to the ideals that have defined it for more than a century. Our sisterhood remains as strong and vibrant as ever, embodying the spirit of excellence that has come to define Greek life at The University of Alabama. We commemorated 120 years of our sisterhood by creating a special logo to display on banners and cups, hosting a dinner in the spring, distributing stickers on game days, and participating in a special anniversary event in October.

This initiation was especially historic as we had our past president, Mary Alan, lead it with her mother and grandmother (both Zetas) participating.
