About Upsilon Kappa Delta

Upsilon Kappa Delta (ϒΚΔ) A few fun facts about UKD: Our mascot is the beautiful butterfly, our flower is the stargazer lily, and our colors are forest green, maroon, and navy blue. The Ladies of Upsilon Kappa Delta began as a small but determined group of strong women. In the Fall of 1993 thirteen young Ladies sought to establish a multicultural sorority. Upsilon Kappa Delta was officially established on December 10, 1993 at California State University, Chico. Our goal was and continues to be, to provide Chico State with an example of the ideal Multicultural Sorority. In order to understand the importance of this goal, one must understand the importance of multi-cultural awareness. Our definition reads as follows. "Multiculturalism is an appreciation of the different cultures in our sorority and around us; an acknowledgment of the different values and equality of diverse groups." We are based on Academics, Community Service and Sisterhood with an emphasis on multiculturalism. Our sorority offers an atmosphere that is conducive to learning. Without an education we would not be where we are today. We encourage academic success by implementing study hours. We try to educate ourselves as well as others in the community by making ourselves and others aware of issues that concern the community and by offering our services in an effort to help make the community we live in a better one. We are involved with various campus events. As a sister of Upsilon Kappa Delta you can always count on finding someone who will stick by your side through thick and thin. Our motto "A Sisterhood 2 Tight 2 Break" says it all. By the same token, a sister must dedicate her heart and her soul to the letters we proudly earned to wear across our chest. The Ladies of Upsilon Kappa Delta feel that all of these characteristics combined allows our sisters to be successful in every aspect of their lives during and after college.
