Alpha Upsilon
Installed On
Chapter Beginnings
In 1905, Sigma Delta Psi organized at Washburn University in Topeka, Kansas, with the intent of becoming a chapter of Kappa Alpha Theta. The well-respected local group worked tirelessly towards its goal, encouraged by Topeka alumnae. Nine years later, its wish was granted, and Alpha Upsilon Chapter was installed at Washburn in 1914. The chapter returned its charter in 2014.
Notable Thetas
From the very beginning, Theta alumnae have distinguished themselves in their careers and their volunteer endeavors. In fact, some are so well-known that they’re household names, and many have the distinction of being the first women in their professional fields. The archives takes this opportunity to recognize some of our more notable sisters.
