Chapter Birthday Ceremony - DKGTexas
Chapter Birthday Ceremony
(Adapted from Theta Alpha Chapter)
Eighty three years ago on May 11, 1929
Twelve women of vision
Bravely took a step forward
That would change the role of women
In the working world.
These women not only sought
The opportunity to work,
But also to be the best that they could be:
To be leaders.
Their goals were high
And their dreams were realized.
Forty-six years ago on April 2, 1966
Twenty- four Dallas area women
Became charter members of Theta Alpha Chapter
Of the Delta Kappa Gamma Society International
Under the direction of one of the society’s founders.
Dr. Cora M. Martin of Austin.
Theta Alpha Chapter became the 193rd chapter
Of the Alpha State, Texas organization.
