Kappa Delta (ΚΔ, also known as KD or Kaydee) was the first sorority founded at the State Female Normal School (now Longwood University), in Farmville, Virginia.
Kappa Delta is one of the "Farmville Four" [1] sororities founded at the university, which includes Alpha Sigma Alpha, Sigma Sigma Sigma and Zeta Tau Alpha. A clock tower at the university campus with a clock face representing each sorority is dedicated to the four. Each sorority in the "Farmville Four" is also a member of the National Panhellenic Conference which governs the 26 national social sororities.[2]
Kappa Delta has over 274,000 initiated members and 168 active collegiate chapters.[3] Kappa Delta also has more than 200 chartered alumnae chapters.[4] It is headquartered in Memphis, Tennessee.[5]
