I have been a member of Kappa Delta for the last two years and I get a lot of questions about who we are and what we stand for so I thought I would share a little.
Kappa Delta Sorority at Utah State is part of a national organization committed to inspiring women to reach their full potential by volunteering in the community, holding active leadership positions, receiving opportunities for networking, and living time-honored values.
When people take the time to look past what they think they know about sorority life, they realize that Kappa Delta allows women some of the greatest opportunities available for leadership, academic success and community service.
The open motto for the organization is “Ta Kala Diokomen,” which translates to “Let us strive for that which is honorable, beautiful, and highest.” The Kappa Delta members at Utah State not only say this is their motto, but they do all they can to live it.
Greek life at Utah State has had a rocky past, but we have stepped up as a chapter to combat the negative image and prove we live what we stand by.This school year alone, the chapter has already logged over a hundred hours of combined community service hours. We work very closely with the Girl Scouts and help teach them the values of the Dove Campaign for Real Beauty. It is amazing to see the impact we can make on these young girl and I am so happy Kappa Delta gives me such an amazing opportunity.
Kappa Delta not only helps the community, but the women involved. Being involved in a sorority has helped me out tremendously academically. I know that if I don't do well in school I can't be a part of Kappa Delta and that is motivation enough to make sure I do as best I can.
With over 200,000 members nationally, the networking opportunities are phenomenal. Personally, I know Kappa Delta will give me my first job. It's not just because of the name, but what the name means. Being Greek means I am a leader and a strong woman who is motivated and serves.
