Kappa Kappa Gamma (KKG)
Fraternity was founded at Monmouth College in Monmouth, Illinois. Six young women were indeed pioneers when they dared to march into the most public part of the Monmouth College campus, its chapel, on October 13, 1870, wearing their golden keys in their hair. The six young founders of Kappa Kappa Gamma were among the first women to avail themselves of the privilege of Greek-letter societies, that is, to organize into a congenial social group for the cultivation of friendships and intellectual stimulation. To the right is the first Kappa Kappa Gamma chapter house at Monmouth College.
