About Epsilon Nu Chapter of Kappa Kappa Gamma
Rooted in over fifty years of tradition, the Epsilon Nu Chapter of Kappa Kappa Gamma represents a unique chapter of one of the nation's most respected women's organizations. Based at Vanderbilt University in Nashville, TN, this chapter traces its origins to the Phileans Society, a local group that voted to affiliate with the national Kappa Kappa Gamma organization in 1972. The chapter's official founding on October 13, 1973, marked the beginning of a lasting legacy that continues to shape the lives of Vanderbilt women today.
What sets Epsilon Nu apart is its deep commitment to balancing tradition with growth. The chapter honors its history while embracing the evolving needs and aspirations of each new generation of members. Women who join Epsilon Nu become part of something larger than themselves—a community bound by shared values of friendship, integrity, and service.
The organization thrives on the principle that alone, each member brings unique qualities to campus, but together they create meaningful change. Members participate in philanthropic initiatives that address real community needs, engage in leadership development that prepares them for future success, and cultivate friendships that often last a lifetime. The chapter provides a space where college women can flourish academically, grow as individuals, and contribute positively to the Vanderbilt community and Nashville at large.
As part of the National Panhellenic Conference, Epsilon Nu connects its members to a network of thousands of women across the country who share commitment to sisterhood, leadership, and scholarship. For women at Vanderbilt University seeking a community built on these enduring values, Epsilon Nu Chapter offers an opportunity to become part of a living tradition of excellence.
