Due to the hard work and effort of the Founders and the Charter members, Kappa Delta Chi was recognized as an official organization at Texas Tech University on April 6, 1987.
Kappa Delta Chi Sorority became a nationally recognized sorority with the induction of the first chapter outside of Texas in 1991. Over the years, Kappa Delta Chi has grown to include women of various ethnicities and cultures and has inducted other chapters throughout the country. All with the common premise of joining Kappa Delta Chi because of the scholastic and ethical standards that is cultivates and encourages. These are the standards that we emanate through sisterly friendship and servitude to each other and to those around us.
Due this national expansion, Kappa Delta Chi recognized the need to collaborate with other Latino-based Greek organizations and consequently joined the Concilio Nacional de Hermandades Latinas (CNHL)-the National Latino Greek Council in July of 1997.
As the result of our sisterhoods diligent work and determination, Kappa Delta Chi was recognized as a service-based, nonprofit corporation by the State of Texas on September 25, 1997.
Subsequently, our sisterhood has become known as Kappa Delta Chi Sorority, Inc.
