I don't know HOW I didn't notice this before, but Kappa's Theta chapter was never inactive and has been a continuously open chapter since its founding in 1875.

Mizzou did have a sub rosa period beginning in 1880 and ending in 1885, and although many fraternities disbanded (Phi Psi, SAE), others remained and continued meeting. (Phi Delta Theta became the Shakespearian Society and Zeta Phi, later to become a chapter of Beta Theta Pi, moved their meetings off campus.) Kappa is one of those organizations that continued to meet and even kept initiating members during the sub rosa period.
