Kappa Sigma was founded at the University of Virgina December 10, 1869. Though we can trace our roots back to the 1400 Bologna, Italy.
Before attending college, I wasn't quite sure which fraternity I wanted to join, but my options were limited. My dad was a Phi Kappa Pi at the same university but it hasn't been on campus for a long time. So my three options were Kappa Sigma, Kappa Alpha, and Theta Chi. Before I started school I went to a Kappa Sig rush party and instantly knew thats where I belonged, so I guess you could say I was a suicide bid. But the struggle has been long, we only had 6 active members at the time, but our alumni chapter is the biggest in the world out of any fraternity, so with their help in one semseter we are now 35 strong and currently constructing a 12 bedroom half million dollar house. Which puts us by far in the best financial condition out of any fraternity/sorority on our campus since we have such a huge alumni backing they finance things such as rush and social events for us.
