In 1909, Epsilon chapter of Kappa Delta was chartered making it the first sorority on the LSU campus. The purpose of Kappa Delta sorority is to promote friendship, fellowship, and sisterly love among its members, to encourage academic success, to promote social interest and to further charitable and benevolent interest.
Kappa Delta is home to a diverse group of women who are involved in many different campus organizations. Kappa Delta also works hard to promote its national philanthropy, Prevent Child Abuse America. In March of 2008, Epsilon chapter held its annual Shamrock Project, a jambalaya sale at the Baton Rouge St. Patrick’s Day Parade, to raise money for the cause. In 2008 Epsilon raised $41,000 to aid in the prevention of child abuse. In addition, Kappa Delta participated in many other LSU sorority and fraternity philanthropies throughout the year.
Kappa Deltas will continue to strive for excellence to meet the high ideals set by its founders both now and in future years. Kappa Delta sorority will always be a place where its members seek those things that are honorable, beautiful, and highest.
