Kappa Alpha Theta
Balanced Woman
Kappa Alpha Theta's educational program is called the Balanced Woman Member Education Program. Member Education is an ongoing process for all members of our Fraternity. We believe in the concept of continual membership education through all four years of college, as well as through association with local alumnae groups.
Ongoing educational programs and materials are provided for every week of the year. In addition, two to three in-depth programs on topics of critical value to women are developed on an annual basis with accompanying materials such as videos, workbooks, etc.
Kappa Alpha Theta prepares women to be leaders in life, and offers rich opportunities for members to hone the strengths and skills they will need to make a difference in their communities.
Modules included in the Balanced Woman are:
  • Maintaining A Sound Mind and Body, which provides education on alcohol, drugs, safe sex, self-image, exercise, stress and eating disorders.
  • Kappa Alpha Theta Expectations, which includes chapter bylaws and parliamentary procedure, FIPG policies, scholarship, chapter officers, committees and budget, facility corporations, and advisory boards.
  • Developing a Nobler Womanhood, which includes ritual appreciation, Foundation overview, ethics, role of an alumna, leadership styles, CASA, life after college, positive self-image, and sisterhood.
The most recent topics have been on eating disorders and sisterhood. Topics currently being researched and developed include disabilities, safety, and self-esteem.
New Member Education

One component of the Balanced Woman program is our new member orientation program, which incorporates four modules that can be completed in a short period of time.

Kappa Alpha Theta strongly believes that each and every member is a valuable part of the college chapter, and that her talents can be fully realized with the elimination of a prolonged pledge program.

Chapters can conduct the new member orientation program over a four-week orientation period followed by initiation. A date for initiation that is compatible with the school calendar can be selected within four to eight weeks of formal pledging.

After members are initiated, the education process continues throughout membership in the chapter.
