About Texas Kappa Delta
Texas Kappa Delta, the Sigma Epsilon Chapter at the University of Texas in Austin, represents over 125 years of tradition rooted in empowering women through friendship and high ideals. Founded in 1897 by four young women with a vision to create something greater than themselves, Kappa Delta has evolved into a national sorority dedicated to building confidence in women and inspiring them to action through the power of lifelong friendship.
The chapter serves the Austin, Texas community as a student organization committed to the sorority's foundational mission: encouraging members to live with integrity and honor, building their confidence to excel in all aspects of life, and inspiring them to become active leaders and responsible citizens. What distinguishes Kappa Delta is its unwavering belief that women are stronger together, united by bonds of sisterhood that extend far beyond the college years.
Members of the Austin chapter participate in a living legacy that honors the founders' original vision while adapting to meet the needs of contemporary women. The organization provides experiences that foster personal growth, professional development, and meaningful connections with other women who share similar values. Through the Kappa Delta Foundation, members contribute to philanthropic efforts and educational opportunities that benefit both the chapter and communities in need.
Joining Sigma Epsilon at UT Austin means becoming part of a sisterhood that celebrates individual growth while emphasizing collective strength. The chapter's culture is built on the values of friendship, loyalty, integrity, lifelong learning, and selfless service—principles established by the founders to help each woman become her best self. For women in Austin seeking a community that values personal development, meaningful relationships, and service to others, Texas Kappa Delta offers a transformative collegiate experience and a network of sisters for life.
