The historian reads from old notebooks and 1any alums attend and tell stories dating back to the early days of sororities on the campus. :amma Kappa-One of the nicest parties is the Fleur-de-Lis party in May. Each class presents skit parodying some feature of sorority life before a background of beautiful flowers given us y the alums. The junior class takes off the senior class as preliminary to the main event of the vening which is the senior prophecy. Different members of the senior class act as prophets of 1ings to come for all the other members of the chapter, and then in skit form, they prophesy 1eir own futures. The dramatics are followed by refreshments and Kappa songs. This party is :1e final activity of the chapter for the school year. leta Sigma-Our most treasured tradition is the senior supper meeting, an annual dinner held 1 the home of a Kappa, shortly before graduation, honoring the seniors. After dinner the .x-pledges present the chapter with their past year's secret project. Last year this was a leather ound scrap book divided into three ~ections, one had a picture of each active and pledge with quotation befitting each individual, another part held all the memories of rushing with invita ions, souvenirs and announcements and the final part was devoted to "Kappas in the News," 1hich included clippings from school and local newspapers. This is followed by the senior part of the program. The senior last will and testament was the .ighlight of the past group and then they presented the undergraduates with napkins and ~atches engraved with Kappa Kappa Gamma and two ma~azine subscriptions, before singing heir farewell song. A skit by the undergraduates follows and the evening ends with under ~· aduates singing their goodbye song to the seniors and presenting them with pins of the Kappa rest. ;amma Mu-Looked forward to by the seniors is Lavender and Old Lace. Dressed as they will ppear 20 years from now, the seniors watch the juniors mimic their characteristic mannerisms. u 'his party is climaxed by a midnight supper of fried chicke,n and strawberry shortcake. ;amma Beta-Every year, usually in the spring, the chapter gives a Father's Night banquet at ~e chapter house, served buffet style. Girls ~hose fathers cannot attend invite their favorite •rofessor. The fathers and professors with spe€ial talents provide the after-dinner entertainment. leta Chi-As exams approach in the spring, our Blue and Blue formal is held the last weekend •!'lfore. The Southern tradition reigns at the gracious Lexington country club with the actives lways attired in pale blue formals against the Garden of Blue decorations. The following moni- 1g, the senior breakfast is held at high noon to bid adieu to our prospective graduates. A pro lhecy, as well as a traditional will, is read as the entire chapter fondly reviews the past year. Jelta Delta-Perhaps the most long-awaited event of me college year is the annual weekend after .xams which abounds with traditions and customary rites.

Delta-An alumnre luncheon, held in the spring of the year for representatives from alumm chapters all over Indiana, has been instituted in order to establish closer ties between the activ and alumnre members and to create understanding and coordination in rushing.
