About
Our Alumae Chapter
*West Orange County*
The West
Orange County Alumnae Chapter of Sigma Kappa was founded in 1980 with
Shari Garay
serving as our first president. Before 1980,
Orange County consisted of only one alumnae group.
But with
freeway congestion and gas shortages, the alumnae group was re-organized with
more regional
focal points: North, West, and South
Orange County.
Although we
have women from places as far away as San Clemente, Oceanside, and Fullerton,
our region
primarily encompasses Huntington Beach, Newport Beach, Corona del Mar, Seal
Beach,
(For the 2004-2005 year, the
which
includes the North and South regions.)
West Orange
County Alumnae consists of a very diverse group of women, from
recent
graduates through retirement age as well as representing twenty various
colleges
across the
United States. For the 2002-2003 year,
our group had 37 members.
With their
dues, it allows our chapter to register membership with National Sigma Kappa
and allows
our group to support the National Sigma Kappa philanthropies,
as well as
events and activities that support our sister collegiate chapter,
presently
Epsilon Tau at Cal State University, Fullerton.
We are
realistic about the busy schedules most of us have, so we welcome women to
attend
one event or
as many activities that fit into their schedule. Those who pay dues will continue to
receive our
quarterly newsletters with color photos that chronicle our events.
About
Our Sister Collegiate Chapter
*Epsilon Tau
– Cal State Fullerton*
Our sister collegiate chapter, assigned by National Sigma Kappa,
is Epsilon Tau at Cal State
Fullerton.
Their chapter house is within walking distance of campus and the
most recent renovation, painting,
and decorating projects were completed in fall 2002. Sixteen women can live in the house with
their
House Director living on the premises. After fall 2002 recruitment, there were more
than 70 actives
at Epsilon Tau.
During 2002-2003, five of our alum group women served on Advisory
Board for the chapter.
Two Sigma Kappa
Triangles have featured California State University, Fullerton
women
(Spring 2002
and Winter 2003).
