Dear Potential New Member,
My name is Peighton Jones and I have the honor of serving as the Vice President Membership here at Beta Pi.
I am so excited to welcome you to the University of Florida this coming August! Kappa Delta and the rest of the Panhellenic community are eagerly awaiting the arrival of UF'22 and are looking forward to your journey through Panhellenic Recruitment!
Our chapter has been working diligently throughout the past year to ensure that recruitment will be a rewarding and exciting experience for each Potential New Member. I am so excited to welcome you into our home this August and share with you the many reasons why I am so proud to be a Kappa Delta.
Kappa Delta is without a doubt my home away from home. This chapter has given me my very best friends and my most cherished memories - from laughs at the house over dinner to sisterhood trips to Universal Studios. I owe so much of who I am today to our chapter and the incredible women who make it up. I am so blessed to be surrounded by women who inspire me daily and are constantly striving for excellence in all they do.
From the moment I first walked into Kappa Delta, and every day since, my love for this chapter has continued to grow. My experience here when I went through recruitment three years ago and my desire to share all that KD is to me with each potential new member led me to take on the role of Vice President Membership this year. I sincerely hope that each Potential New Member is able to see the authenticity of our chapter and experience the love and support that our chapter so endlessly pours out.
Should you have any questions or concerns about the recruitment process, please don't hesitate to reach out to me at ufkdmembership@gmail.com.
I am so excited for you to find your home this fall and cannot wait to welcome you to Kappa Delta!
With love,
Peighton Jones
Recommendations and Legacies
Do you know a young woman headed off to college? Kappa Delta appreciates the efforts of its members who recommend outstanding young collegiate women for membership.
While the national organization does not require recommendations for women to be considered for membership in Kappa Delta, recommendations offer a beneficial introduction to the chapter before recruitment begins. Having a recommendation does not guarantee an invitation or membership. You must be a Kappa Delta to submit a recommendation.
To recommend a collegiate woman, please complete a recommendation form. An alumna in good standing from any Kappa Delta chapter may write a recommendation for a potential new member. A collegiate member in good standing can write a recommendation for a young woman who is going through recruitment at another school, not her own.
Is the potential new member a legacy? Let us know. A legacy is the daughter, granddaughter or sister of an initiated member in good standing. Half- and step-relations are considered legacies if their KD family member considers them as such.
Please visit the Kappa Delta website to access the recommendation and legacy introduction forms.
Please mail these forms to our chapter at the following address:
Kappa Delta Attn: Peighton Jones
1122 East Panhellenic Drive
Gainesville, FL 32601
