KAPPA SIGMA COLORS Scarlet, White, and Green FLOWER Lily of the Valley OFFICERS Andrew M. Wray - Roscoe Chase Jack Young ----- G. W. Crabtree - President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer Kappa Sigma was founded at the University of Virginia, December 10, 1869, by William G. McCormick, George M. Arnold, Edmund Law Rogers, Jr., Frank C. Nicodemus and John C. Boyd. From its inception it was intended that Kappa Sigma should expand into other institutions and become a widespread organization, but it was not until 1873 that the founders saw their plans take definite shape, although a chapter had been established at the University of Alabama shortly after the parent chapter was organized. Arkansas Xi Chapter was established in 1890. The chapter existed as the Richardson Club, named after Dr. Charles Richardson, of Fayetteville, during the period that fraternities were barred from the University of Arkansas Campus, between the years of 1901 and 1903.

In its early days it remained in the South, the first chapter north of the Mason and Dixon line being established just before the Civil War.

Working in collaboration with the active chapters are one hundred and five alumni associations in American cities and Paris, France. Of these, there are three in this state. Publications are fraternity histories, directories, secret publications, and the periodical magazine, “The Record ’ which is a quarterly with a circulation of 30,000. National headquarters are maintained at Evanston, Illinois. In the National house, owned by S. A. E., there is a large library of books concerning fraternity subjects in general and a museum devoted to the American college fraternity. Conventions are held biennially, and in alternate years province conventions meet. The local chapter, Arkansas Upsilon, was estab¬ lished on the University campus in 1894 with a chapter enrollment of seventeen. pr n r ,t, py
