The Iota Chapter of the Sigma Kappa Sorority was initially established
at the University of Denver in 1908. In 1967 the chapter went dormant,
and it was recolonized in 1988. The newly reopened chapter was short-lived,
however, and closed again in 1993 when it released its national
charter.
Scope and Content
The majority of the collection pertains to the most recent incarnation
of the Iota chapter, from 1988 to 1993. The collection is divided
into four series. Series 1 contains handbooks for the chapter officers,
including President, Vice-Presidents for Pledge Education and Membership,
Social Chair and Treasurer. Series 2 contains the chapter files,
including correspondence, minutes of meetings, pledge manuals and
reports. Series 3 contains materials related to rush activities,
including party plans, policies, handouts and reports. Series 4
includes the chapter's memorabilia, consisting of award plaques
and trophies, books, videos, and oversized photographs. Some of
the memorabilia dates to the earlier period of the Iota chapter.
