The Delta Chapter of Kappa Kappa Gamma
is located on the campus of Indiana University.
We invite you to look through this site and see
all that Kappa has to offer.

Mission Statement: Kappa Kappa Gamma is an organization of women, which seeks for every member throughout her life bonds of friendship, mutual support, opportunities for self-growth, respect for intellectual development, and an understanding of and an allegiance to positive ethical principles.

The golden key was selected by the founders as the badge of Kappa Kappa Gamma. It has the letters KKG on the stem and Alpha Omega Omicron on the ward. On the reverse side of the key are engraved the member's initials, the Greek-letters of her chapter, and her date of initiation. The badge is worn strictly as an emblem of membership and only by initiated members
The pledge pin is a Delta of dark blue enclosing a light blue Sigma. It is to be worn only by a woman who has been pledged to membership in Kappa Kappa Gamma, and is returned to the chapter at the time of initiation.
The colors of the Kappa are light blue and dark blue. They have often been described as "blue of sky and sea" in Kappa songs and verse.
The Fraternity Coat of Arms combines the well known symbols of Kappa Kappa Gamma--the key, the Greek-letters, the pledge pin, the fleur-de-lis, the owl and the two blues. It also displays the head of Minerva, the Goddess of Wisdom.
The fleur-de-lis was chosen as the fraternity flower in 1890 because of its general dignity, stateliness, and grace, and because it often combines the two blues of the fraternity in the flower.
The owl is a symbol of Kappa because it is the bird of wisdom.
