THANK YOU, GENEROUS ALUMNAE hank you to the 74 loyal alumnae who gave $14,015 to Lambda Chapter this year!

Your contributions are greatly appreciated and allow us to provide an environment where our undergraduates can gain valuable leadership skills, are prepared for a lifetime of community involvement, pursue excellence in their values and achievements, and develop a greater appreciation for diverse cultures, workplaces, and communities. Your gifts make it possible for Lambda Chapter to continue its tradition of excellence at KU. T Alumnae Update OMEGA CHAPTER Jean Boswell Jones '40 entered Omega Chapter August 24, 2013.
