Leslie,
Our archives are at National Headquarters. If you get to Memphis you should stop in and take a look. It is really fascinating. Some of the items, along with the Alpha Trunk, were at convention this year.

Oh, I've definitely got to see the archives at HQ! I'm in graduate school right now working towards becoming an archivist myself. I envy anyone who got to see the Alpha Trunk.
What I'm interested in reading at Longwood is an account of those early days. Specifically, I want to know what the curriculum was. I've checked and it's in the Longwood holdings.
Now I just have to get there! (to both Farmville and Memphis)

New trivia question
Well, no one seemed interested in my 'first KD prez of NPC' question, so I'm moving along. (I'll talk to myself if I have to!  )
From the history books:
Very early in Kappa Delta's history the "Grand Chapter" (as it was called) appointed one member from each existing chapter to give input on ritual elements that their respective chapters wanted to see included.
What note-worthy Kappa Delta was one of those appointed and from what chapter did she hail?

lol... I got so intrigued by SigKapAngel's CHI info that I completely missed your question!
Give me a little bit of time, and I'll get back to you on that!
There'll be no talking to oneself in the trivia thread!

I loooove reading the answers, but I have no idea what they are myself. So you can ask and then I'll say "ooo tell me, tell me please!" and then you can answer yourself if someone else doesn't beat you to it.

Leslie,
I am always amazed at the questions you put up...are all of these coming from "Ordinary Miracles"?

Ditto.
I've looked as much as I have time to for the answer to the "first KD NPC president" question. I'm afraid I'm going to have to bow out here. I hope someone (other than Leslie!) can provide the answer.
Now, onto the search for the answer to the Grand Chapter question...

For the first KD president of NPC, for some reason, I want to say Minnie Mae Prescott. I don't know why though. And, I have NO CLUE about the Grand Chapter question.
