Message from the Chapter President

The four points of the Theta kite consist of: personal excellence, leadership potential, commitment to service, and intellectual curiosity. These are qualities that I see in the members of the Gamma Zeta chapter everyday. The women of this chapter are constantly inspiring me and reminding me of what it truly means to be a Kappa Alpha Theta. There is something so special about being surrounded by people who are equally as passionate and academically driven as they are kind and generous. I will forever be thankful for the friendships I have formed within our chapter at UConn and am honored to serve as our president!
