OUR CHAPTER

Installed March 12, 1904, the Zeta Chapter of Kappa Delta at the University of Alabama was the first women’s sorority on the UA campus and the first women’s sorority in the state of Alabama. Zeta Chapter is Kappa Delta’s oldest chapter to have been active continuously since its chartering.

Many leaders of the national organization—including two former national presidents—have come from our chapter. And many members have been leaders on campus and in the community.

Our chapter has a strong sisterhood and an even stronger commitment to making a difference through community service.

WHY WE LOVE KD!


“Every single girl I've met in KD puts others before themselves and will do anything they can to support you, love you, and make you laugh. Because of KD, I have been able to surround myself with people who I know can’t imagine life without. The experiences and relationships I have been able to have thanks to KD mean the world to me! Today and everyday, I am so grateful I MTRCKD!”

“I am forever in debt to KD for making my college experience everything and more than I could’ve ever hoped. Since pledging KD, I have met so many incredible girls that I am lucky enough to call my sisters. There is truly no stranger in KD and experiencing the love, laughs, and joy shared in the house is something so special that it can’t be put into words. I could not be more grateful to have such a wonderful place to call home and I wouldn’t trade my choice for the world!”

“When I was going through rush, every single time I went to KD it was obvious how genuine the conversations were and how much they cared about me throughout the whole process. After bid day, older girls introduced me to so many new people, my age and older, who are now my best friends. Going KD is truly one of the best decisions I have ever made, and I hope all of you get to see how special KD is through your rush week.”

— ANNIE LOPER | FAIRHOPE, AL | PC ‘20

“Seeing the way girls in every pledge class interacted with each other made me realize that KD had the type of girls that I wanted to spend the next four years with. After bid day, I was constantly included by older girls who wanted me to thrive and who introduced me to my now best friends. This sorority gives me so much, and I can not thank them enough for everything.”

— HANNAH DENERY | LITTLE ROCK, AK | PC ‘21

“I will never forget stepping into KD during my first round of rush, and immediately feeling right at home. Every single person was genuinely excited to see me and I could tell how proud all of the older girls were to be in the KD house together. This sisterhood is more than just friendship, it is family. When bid day came around, I remember tearing up on the lawn because I knew that I was now a part of something so much bigger than myself.”

— ALICE WILBANKS | NASHVILLE, TN | PC ‘23

“Coming from in-state, I wanted to branch out but still have a sense of home—KD has been the perfect home for me. I knew what I was looking for in a house and the kind of girls I wanted to be surrounded by. The moment I walked into KD, all my nerves instantly went away and I felt so loved and valued. The friendships I have formed since pledging KD will last a lifetime—l'm beyond thankful to have met girls from all over the country that have made my college experience the absolute best!”
