New Member Program
The whirlwind of going through Recruitment, being extended a bid and then joining Kappa for life can be exciting and overwhelming at the same time. Kappa gives our new sisters a warm welcome by extending friendship and mutual support through our new member program.
The new member period is a time to learn about the Fraternity and educate women on the expectations and requirements of being a Kappa. Each new member is given a Big Sister to guide her through this new stage of her life. New members also attend a retreat to foster and develop the new friendships and connections within the chapter.
The Beta Psi New Member Experience is one vital to the continuation of fraternity ideals and the diverse community of the chapter. Through meetings and online courses, the new member experience is designed to welcome, educate, and support university women as they discover all that participation in our close- knit sisterhood means to them. For several weeks, the new members learn all aspects of Kappa Kappa Gamma, from history of the fraternity and chapter, to the ideals of sisterhood and individual achievement. New members learn what it means to be a Kappa, our core values, and all that’s expected to be a member. Along the way, each woman is paired with an older active member, who is there to guide the new member into full sisterhood and be a shoulder to lean on. This relationship is meant to foster individual relationships, and to provide a venue for questions, and discussion of fraternity ideals. Upon successful completion of the new- member experience, the new members will be initiated through a meaningful ceremony. The chapter celebrates new members as they are sources of inspiration and enthusiasm, and are welcome additions to the chapter each year. Beta Psi prides itself on attracting women of all different backgrounds, religions, and countries.
