Also, while our constitution was amended in 1925 to allow women pursuing various degrees (not just education) to seek membership, we did then and continue today, to support programs and initiatives which focus on educating the youth and our communities.

Now that is an interesting tidbit--the fact that your first collegiate chapter was not charted until seven years after your founding. The opposite of the rest of us who were founded by collegiates.
