Greek woman dies in Chicago Porch Collapse
Duke University 2001 graduate Katherine (Katie) Sheriff died in the recent Chicago porch collapse. Katie, a member of Kappa Kappa Gamma sorrority, also served as the new member educator during her senior year at Duke. She graduated with a degree in political science and was working as director of marketing at a lumber company in Chicago.
According to Ingrid Sheriff (Duke '00) Katie's sister and also a member of KKG, a memorial fund has been set up in Katie's honor at her former high school. Kappa Kappa Gamma has announced a new scholarship in her honor as well.
Contributions may be sent to:
Katie Sheriff Fund
Mercyhurst Preparatory School
538 E. Grandview Blvd.
Erie, PA 16504.
Or
Kappa Kappa Gamma Foundation
(behalf of Katie Sheriff)
P.O. Box 38

While I never met Katie (she graduated a year before I came to Duke), and we are/were involved in different sororities, the greek life at Duke definitely mourns one of their own.
