Delta Omicron
The Delta Omicron chapter of Kappa Kappa
Gamma was founded at Iowa State University in 1946 and has been going
strong ever since. Like all other Kappa chapters, we are unified by our
diversity. This shows in the fact we have members majoring in everything
from business to journalism, engineering to exercise and sport science,
pre-veterinary to elementary education and anything in-between.
The Kappas are also very involved off and on
campus--with members in Student Alumni Leadership Council, Greek Week
Central, Panhellenic Executive Council, Varieties Central Committee,
VEISHEA Exec, Freshman Council, Cheer Squad, Intramural Sports, and many
other clubs and activities.
No matter what we do, who we are, or where we
go, all the sisters at Delta Omicron know that Kappa is a home where we
can find friendship, support, laughter, and love anytime we need.
