Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc (R) - Epsilon Delta Chapter
About
Founded on Wednesday January 15, 1908 on the campus of Howard University in Washington D.C., Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated ® is the first Greek Letter Organization to be established and nationally incorporated by college-trained African American women.
The purpose of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. is to cultivate and encourage high scholastic and ethical standards, to promote unity and friendship among college women, to study and help alleviate problems concerning girls and women in order to improve their social stature, to maintain a progressive interest in college life, and to be of service all mankind.
The Epsilon Delta Chapter became the First Black Sorority on the University of Wisconsin-Madison campus, as well as the first Undergraduate chapter of Alpha Kappa Alpha in the state. Given the small number of Black students enrolled at the University of Wisconsin-Madison on Saturday May 18, 1968, the presence of a Black sorority on this campus made a very important statement.
The Epsilon Delta Chapter was and still is involved in promoting Black unity and Black heritage on campus, as well as providing service to the University Wisconsin-Madison and Madison communities. Through our programming and service initiatives, this powerful legacy of ‘Being of Service to all Mankind’ proudly continues today, and we continue to do it with ‘Style and Grace’
