Kappa Beta Gamma (ΚΒΓ) was founded at Marquette University in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Currently, there are 21 active chapters;〔(Kappa Beta Gamma national website )〕 the sorority is recruiting both inactive and new chapters to expand the sorority's ideals and provide more leadership opportunities for women. ==History== In 1916, twelve women of Marquette University founded the first sorority on Marquette campus. These twelve worked enthusiastically toward their goal and on January 22, 1917, Kappa Beta Gamma was founded at Marquette University. Their purpose was to unite the members in the bond of sisterhood; to develop friendships among the members during their college days, to improve the members morally, socially, and intellectually, and to perpetuate the support of college university, alma mater and of God and country. The first officers of this group were: *Teresa Jermain (President) *Myra Thewalt (Vice-President) *Jeannie Lee (Secretary) *Mary Weimar (Treasurer) Mary Weimar was also the designer of the Kappa pin. Kappa Beta Gamma grew throughout the years. As a local group on the Marquette campus, the members of Kappa Beta Gamma were first in intellectual pursuits and social activities. However, many of the members expressed interest in expanding onto other university campuses. On May 14, 1947, Founders Day, the dream of many years became a reality when Alpha Chapter was installed at Saint Louis University; St. Louis, Missouri. The chapter at Marquette University became known as Beta Chapter. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kappa Beta Gamma」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
