The Women Of Kappa Gamma's Letter: Hello, Extension Committee

[headline] We know each other. We just haven’t met yet.

Hello, Extension Committee:

The women of Kappa Kappa Gamma aspire to be. It says so on our letterhead, our T-shirts, and most importantly, in our hearts. As an organization, we aspire to be among the first sororities on your campus. Thank you for considering us!

We’ve done our homework. With nearly 100 student organizations on campus, we know Hobart and William Smith Colleges are filled with people who aspire to live lives of consequence. We see students who fully immerse themselves in their collegiate journey. Students who want to transform their community and the world. Like HWS, Kappa is committed to developing the whole person as well as providing experiences that will inspire global

It’s always exciting to see the ripple effect between what each member takes in and, in turn, gives back to her campus and community.

We love learning about Hobart and William Smith Colleges’ initiatives that are intended to develop and inspire the next generation of leaders. We are ready to do the work to help prepare your students for a lifetime of courageous leadership.

Developing stronger individuals is a key component of our membership experience. In order to affect the bigger campus picture, each individual must be a contributing member of a team — starting with her own chapter. In order to thrive as a chapter, every woman must put in the effort to help create a solid foundation on which to build a lasting legacy on campus. Kappa will be there every step of the way to support our new chapter and demonstrate the satisfaction that comes with successful collaboration. When we develop stronger individuals, they create a stronger chapter. A stronger chapter will enhance your campus

As a result, these young women are eager to share their time and talents with the campus community. For example, Leadership Academy serves to build self-assurance and leadership skills and follows a curriculum based on The Five Practices of Exemplary Leadership by Jim Kouzes and Barry Posner. Our research tells us that 75 percent of participants go on to hold leadership positions in their chapters or on their campuses.

Ultimately, we all want the same thing: a strong campus comprised of individuals who aspire to gain new perspectives, develop leadership skills and strive for personal growth. Kappa is committed to providing resources, programming and support through mentoring — developing members who will strengthen your campus community.
