Theta Kappa Pi

The sisters of Theta Kappa Pi are excitedly preparing for Rush 2007. Theta Kappa Pi is looking forward to beginning its fifteenth year at the University of Charleston. We are starting off the school year with high hopes of Rush and countless ideas for community service projects and socials. Last year, the sisters initiated seven bright young ladies into this traditional, social, and service-oriented sorority.

On October 23, 1987, the sorority of Theta Kappa Pi was founded at the University of Charleston. The founding class began with only nine sisters, but has grown steadily since its inception. In 1988, Theta Kappa Pi of UC merged with the Theta Kappa Pi chapter ant Penn State University to form a regional sorority. In spring of 2002, these two chapters merged with a newly found chapter at Lewis University. There is a strong bond between the three chapters, maintained through visits and regular correspondence.

We have adopted the March of Dimes Birth Defects Foundation as our philanthropy and participate in various community service projects such as Ronald McDonald House, Unicef, Salvation Army and many more. Our sisters are involved on the UC campus through other ways as well, including softball, cheerleading, swimming, soccer and Involvement Scholars. Furthermore, many sisters are service leaders in the Charleston community. In addition to community service, the sisters of Theta Kappa Pi plan numerous socials and formal events every year. We know how to get down to business while having fun!

The motto of Theta Kappa Pi is the belief in friendship, service, and integrity. It is represented in our colors of white, green and blue and by the lion, our mascot. We are looking for determined, dedicated, fun, loving, young women to continue our tradition. We look forward to meeting you during Rush and hope you find the bond that we all have experienced.
